Back to the waiting room I go.... I had to scroll a few pages to find the link :D

I was really hoping for some good news!!!! :o

I just phoned MTL cause I wanted to know if Packet 4 w/interview date was sent out yet (I had a feeling it was coming any day now) and she said I probably wont get Packet 4 until JANUARY and probaby won't get an interview until FEBRUARY.

Good thing I called to give them my new address (at my parents) cause I sold my house and moving Jan 31!!! So I can stop frantically checking my mailbox every night when I get home.

Hmmmmm, Feb is no better than Jan with Montreal weather, I think I'll take the train and not risk the dangerous hwy drive.....

Later,

tanya

Add me to the waiting line...... :dance:

Well, not that they can be trusted, but I'm glad you have an answer, however temporary. Let's hope it's early Feb at the very least!

Wow! It took me a while to get to the last page here! I haven't received my package yet, but I do know my Interview will be in Montreal. I laughed when I saw postings about the Ms. Meany who works there! I have phoned there a few times to ask questions. One lady was such an ignorant nasty cow! That must be her. Another time I phoned I was nervous if she would answer, it was another girl and she was such a sweetie.
