Mine hasn't changed either, but it showed that it updated today! Montreal was nice, but I was happy to leave. Are you getting your passports sent to your house/local post?

Mine still says ‘received’. Last update was Nov 29 - but I don’t know what was updated. I am having the passports delivered to me here in Montreal then I’ll be on my way back to RI. Moved to RI back in Aug. just back in Canada for the interview. 
 

fingers crossed it’s not too much longer

Mine's saying the same things on both the CEAC and AIS pages. We probably lost a day or two because we interviewed right before Thanksgiving ... then the post-Thanksgiving Friday ... then the weekend ... etc.

 

I do hope we hear soon, just for peace of mind. Also, so that you can leave Montreal -- I know the novelty wears off fairly shortly, especially at this time of year!

Thanks! Honestly, I'm not sure about the delivery date ... right now it doesn't have one, maybe because it's still in "Label created" phase  (it might change once it says "Picked Up"). It does tell me that it's Purolator Express, which is supposedly delivered by end of next business day. So ... maaaaaaaybe tomorrow, but likely not until sometime Friday.

I'm stunned, everything I've read seemed to indicate that it could be in Admin Processing for a week or more.

Good luck with yours, I hope you can escape Montreal soon! 😋

Awesome! That was so quick. I'm still at application received, but it updated again today.

I am renting an Air BbB. Seemed the most affordable and the place is super cozy. As for parking, there’s quite a bit around the interview place, I think I paid $15 for a couple of hours.

I stayed at an Airbnb very close by (10 min walk from consulate). We got the whole apartment for $42 a night and it was so nice.

That’s so great. We only have this Airbnb till Friday. No idea what I’m gonna do if no passport by then. *insert panic here*
