Looks like we have a good plan in force hopefully we will find out next week! Ok here's my concern, because they told me that they sit down once a month to book the interviews for the next month how are we going to know if they have already booked the July interviews and we just didn't get one (or I should say I didn't get one because I did put in my package 3 after you guys).

Well there is no way to be sure, but my advice is to be a little patient (and I know you all are already). But they don't sit down in just one day and schedule them all; I found out my interview on a Thursday and the next week a number of others found out theirs. Based on the trends I have personally seen, I would say that if it seems like a slew of you get interview dates, and then say it's past June 20 or so and no one else seems to be getting one, then maybe you won't. But again, take that with a grain of salt as just my opinion. I bet a number of you waiting will hear something next week.

Yea, I don't know how MTL works or how they schedule interview dates. Looks like they wait till they have a whole bunch then they start assigning dates. Who knows really!! If we find out sometime this month.. then my guess would be that it would probably be for July. That's the way it seemed for everyone who found out in May.

That's true... I think we'll find out sometime this month for a July interview!! I am a bit worried, because my application expires on July 7th... What if my interview is after that!?

hooray my visa is at the post office!

rachel? is the canada post website showing anything for you?

so Im leaving canada next weekend

leafgal: you know that with their win detroit is only 2 cups-win away from replacing the leafs in 2nd place for teams who won most cups? 1st place is of course unreachable for any team as it is owned by the greatest dynasty of all sports: Les Canadiens de Montreal with 24 cups!!!

Well good to know that Detroit is gunning for something other than the Cup lol. What state are you moving to so I can make sure you get your Toronto Jersey lol.

JillA I believe they extend the expiry dates so don't worry about that.

Everyone the process you are going through now is just part of the process. Remember how this feels because you will do it again with AOS, but at least then you are together with your significant other.

I wish everyone good luck with getting interviews very very soon. I am rooting for you.

Yeah mine expired on March 29 & my interview was June 2, so don't even sweat it. If it gets to that date just send them an email asking them to extend it. They never responded to my email or my lawyers but everything worked out just fine.

[JillA 2]

PHEW... Thanks you guys!! that is great to know!!

Yea, mine expires July 14th. If I don't get an interview close to that date, should I email them?? Orrrr will they just automatically extend that date for me?

[anxiouslywaiting 0]

Mine expires in June sometime and my lawyer had my fiance sign a letter that she drafted for him advising that we would like an extension.

I really hope we hear something next week! I will definitely keep my fingers crossed for everyone waiting for interviews. I am trying to be as patient as possible but this waiting game is killing me!

They might do it automatically but I wouldn't trust them to. Definitely at least email asking them to and don't leave it up to them to take care of.

In other news, our envelope with the visa is finally showing up when I track it. It's still in Montreal (well as of yesterday at 10am), but at least now I feel secure. We'll definitely have it in time for the move. Yay!

That's great Rae!! Hey how are you liking this Toronto weather? Does it get this humid & sticky in NYC?
