You most likely looking at longer than a month. trailmix has a great thread tracking the wait times ( http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/94768-ir1-cr1-montreal-timeline-to-interview/page__st__2775) although the recent VJ update has messed with it a bit. :crying:

If you scroll through and look at the numbers at the end of each line that is the time (in day) from completion to interview. I would say you are looking at about 3 months on average. Good luck.

I was hoping they had caught up a bit. Is there anywhere on the consulate website that shows the interviews scheduled? I know Cambodia and Thailand have something like that on theirs.

Unfortunately I think the 2 -3 month wait represents "catching up." Some filers had been waiting 4 - 5 months. We waited 3 months last year during what I believe was a "normal" period :) I don't think Montreal shows the interview bookings online.

No, nothing like that for Montreal.

Bleh! Thanks for the info, though, as depressing as it is. It is better to be realistically prepared, I think.
