Hey all,

So the checklist is happily sent to Vancouver, and I find myself sitting on my hands trying not to call or email the consulate *right now* and ask if my interview date is assigned yet. Anyone who called or emailed, how long did you wait before asking when your interview was? And anyone who's just found out when, when is it??? Wondering if December is full yet, are they booking people into January now? February? Late December???

Anyhow I am really anxious, because I want to get the interview done before the end of the year so I can get moving by early January. I was thinking of starting college next year, but it takes a year to establish state residency, so I need to get my residency before the spring semester starts if college is going to be an option for me! Grrr, so much waiting...

Thanks!

I emailed them the next day. Then called the next day, left a voicemail because we didn't get through to anyone. Got the interview date 4 days after we faxed in the checklist. I think you should get a December date from what the Vancouver Waiting Room Forum looks like...

I emailed them the following day and used the excuse that I wanted to make sure they received my fax of the checklist ... They responded telling me that my interview letter was mailed out that day and they also told me in the email the date that they picked for my interview ...
