Just wondering how long other people had to wait to be scheduled for their IR-1 interview in Montreal? I’ve been waiting since October everything has been completed just literally waiting for a date.

This is the spreadsheet in question: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LvnDvX95_tfWtTvsJJM49PDPPvPKal0WG2rgdZHhsz0/edit#gid=1638721492

There were no interviews scheduled for a good chunk of time over the summer so things are a little backlogged right now. August DQ just got interviews for January so you'll likely hear something in February for a March interview unless they're able to clear out some of the backlog (we are DQ in December so we're definitely hoping that they do!)

I am not a lawyer and nothing I say is or should be taken as legal advice.

So you got DQ in Oct, or you uploaded everything to CEAC then?

Fill out your timeline on here, and I'll add your dates to our spreadsheet...

Same to you!  

 

I have a question - are you and partner the kids' parents?  My kids are hub's step kids.  I'm wondering what the Consulate is going to ask in regards to custody...

Hi! Could I please be added to the group where people are waiting for their CR1/IR1 interview date in Montreal? I’m still waiting to be DQ’ed, but should hear back from NVC next week. I’d like to stay in the know about the interview timelines. Thank you!

Hi! Do we need to bring photos to medical and/or embassy interview? If yes, what size? 🙏

You're in EB-2 category per another post you have on the forum, and describe receiving CC as of September 2019. 

You are undergoing consular processing, according to the information below?
