Hey Blue, where are you?

Hey Caramel! Thank you so much for checking in :) Sorry I've been absconding. Work has been slamming busy lately and I barely get a chance to pop in and read updates every now and then. The upside to that is that it has been a welcome distraction from the wait for any progress in my case. I also need to update the table which I will do tomorrow evening.

Hope all is well with you! All set for the big day this week I hope? I'm sure it will be a slam dunk for you guys. If I don't speak with you before then, all the very best to you for the interview! Sending lots of positive vibes your way :)

Thank You! but its really odd,I was reading some timelines here and there,most people if not all get their interview date in a couple of weeks to 3 weeks after the "testing and interview " thing on-line..how come my case is taking that long just to tell me what day is my interview ? what is it ? the local office is busy or something?

Don't you worry! I actually have the same situation ,I filed in mid April as well, and it has been more than a month since my case was changed to testing and interview..and I haven't heard from them yet , not sure what to do at this point other than waiting ..My local office in Des Monies which a couple of hours from me ,and when i went for biometrics they weren't busy at all,i was the only one ..I am not in Chicago or New York!

Is there anyone on here who had an interview in Des Monies before ? do they take that long usually ?
