We finally had them send out packet 4 to us, and now I'm able to schedule the interview, but there aren't any available. I've been avoiding the forums because I'm afraid that they're already booking into January, still haven't checked but I'm majorly bummed out about the possibility about not spending Christmas with my husband, but instead just missing my fiance. A year ago, I thought that we'd be together at the beginning of summer... an ex wife prolonging divorce proceedings as long as possible, and our January application going missing and becoming a March application and then somehow becoming a May application didn't help things any.

Congrats to all of you already past this step, and married, visa in hand and interview booked, I am very happy for you all. But I'm still not going to be hanging out here until I get that interview date, as it's just too freaking stressful guessing...

Hope that I don't have to wait too long to be able to book, cross your fingers for me...

Thanks Looky, I just found out that Montreal hasn't had any appointments available for almost a month, and one of the panel physician's told someone they wouldn't have any available till November. They typically put appointments out for 3 months later, so that might mean February...

This isn't what I expected when I started this process... and to have another wall thrown up now is just more than I can deal with at the moment... I want my honey and I want him now... especially now...
