Congratulations ! Hopefully you don’t have to wait that long. I wonder if Montreal will start scheduling appointments more quickly. I’m currently not yet at that point yet but everyone that has had a CC in the past 2 months or more, has had to wait a long time. Yes, I agree it’s Progress. 😊 

Hoping everyone gets an Approval, CC or Interview soon.

I hope so too! And I agree, maybe the slow down on Montreal's end was because of vacations. That was the word on the street at least. And I get that, Canada only has a few weeks in the summer when it's warm enough to go outside for a little while LOL! But now that vacation season is over, maybe they'll speed up the scheduling. Fingers crossed!

Nope 🙄

 

 This makes me wonder where all the people that would’ve been getting interviews for the first part of November? I wonder how many people are going through this process but just aren’t on any of the visa journey website.  

 

Now it’s looking like mid November at the earliest is when any of us are going to see the Montreal consulate in the best case scenario

 

Maybe week 11, which starts Monday for me,  will bring some good news for everyone...assuming that nothing is coming in the remaining hour of today

I am hoping that this week is the week, and I keep jumping every time my phone buzzes.

 

nothing yet for me, but October dates were given on Sept 13 so this isn’t too much later than that.
