I'm new here and was wondering if anyone could briefly tell me about how long after you submit your packet 3 is your interview scheduled. I'm a K1 still waiting for NOA2, but looking for a heads up.

Thanks!

Really depends how how backlogged they are... worst case 4 months, best case 3 months, although some people have been scheduled within 6-8 weeks, but that's not really happening at the moment. With Montreal its always best to plan for the worst case scenario to be on the safe side.

To be safe, i'd put your 'worst' case at 4.5 - 5 months. It'd probably be better to be earlier rather than later than your expectations

That sounds horrible :( But you're right, better to be on the safe side. So after 4 months an extension would need to be filed right? Is it automatic that the consulate does it? Or would I need to? Thanks for your help!

It's automatic. You don't have to do anything but sit tight and wait :)

I'm calling over lunch.

Montreal Interviewer: "What do you have in common with each other?"

Peachey: "We're REALLY weird."

Montreal Interviewer (incredulously to me): "Do you agree with that?"

<I think back to several days before the interview. Driving through the country, passing a field with cows...>

Peachey: "MOOOO! MOOOOO! Does this make me weird?"

Me: "No, well yes. Here, let me roll down the windows so they can hear you better!"

Peachey: "MOOOOO!!!!"

<back to interview>

Me: "Yes, yes I do."

Just so you know Varba, when Wes emailed the consulate it took almost a week for them to get back to him, but when they did they told him the letter had been sent :D (I just got it in the mail today! WOOHOO!)
