Delay in delivery of approved visas from Montreal

[JJ Day 22]

Is that people who interviewed in Montreal or elsewhere?

Montreal, as this is a thread about Montreal.

Okay, thanks! Not sure whether we were comparing wait times from Montreal or elsewhere, since I've heard that this is a wider problem. Hopefully the wait won't be too bad for those of us whose interviews are coming up. Mine is on Friday-- I'm petrified.

Don't be, it will be fine! It's the waiting that's the hard part. My interview was very pleasant and less than 5 minutes. Good luck!

Hi guys just wondering when CEAC status change from ready to administrative then issued. My interview was July 09 and i got approved. They told me that i should get my visa within 7 to 10 days. I was curious shouldn't be CEAC status change after my interview right away or it take couple of days to change.

That's hard to say. I was approved a month ago and it's said "Ready" ever since. Still waiting.

Thanks JJ US Consulate in Montreal already cleared all the backlog visas and they have no issues printing. So hopefully we will get ours visa soon.

I hope it comes quickly for you! Mine was among the backlog visas and it has not been touched. If it was in AP that would be one thing, but they haven't done anything at all with it in a month. It's frustrating, but not much I can do about it.

I feel so bad for you folks, this process is so crazy and stressful, the last thing everyone needs is more bull...

How do you know that they have cleared the backlog/have no issues printing? I haven't been able to get info from them on this. I really hope that's true!!!

I was just saying that they should cleared the backlog by now. I am not 100% sure if they cleared the backlog.

Any updates?

My status was updated for the first time in a long time today, but it's still stuck at ready.

Great news! I just received email notification from Loomis saying that my passport has been picked up from Montreal! No word on my kid's passports, I'm praying that they are all sent together!

That's wonderful, congratulations! Did your status ever change from ready on CEAC, or did you just go straight to the Loomis email? I can't remember if I ever saw you post about your status being changed to issued.

UPDATED: Nevermind, I see that yours was issued a while ago. I hope that all 3 of your passports are in the package. This is such happy news!!!

hello,

I checked my CEAC, and I noticed that yesterday our app showed Status Updated Date July 17th. My interview was only 4 days ago on (July 13). I can't help it, but be hopeful that this means is a good sign? Maybe other members can share, if they have noticed any changes too.
