Thank you. I have one more question: When exactly does the visa status change from "Ready" to "Issued"? I still see "Ready" on the CEAC site.

 

When the visa is actually printed, hopefully not too much longer.

OK, so have you filled in the form I linked to above? They should get back to you within 30 days of that, hopefully it’s something really simple - my daughter just had to go and have her photo retaken for hers.

Yes I submitted a request using the link you had shared earlier. Just not sure how long it would take to receive the physical card. Thank you for your guidance.

Hello All,  My DQ date shows as 7th May 2024 and DS-260 has expiry date as Oct 31st 2025 and my Priority date is still current.  Any idea how long it takes in Montreal to get a Interview date and what about this DS-260 FORMS expiry date?

 

Appreciate your answer.

 

Thanks,

mano

It will depend on the reason you’ve not received it. Often you’ll have to redo biometrics, but then once that’s done it’ll be fairly quick. But they should get back to you soon and tell you why it’s not been processed - let us know what the outcome is and good luck. Please pay it forward and fill in your timeline too! Thx.

It’s about a year to get an interview, so you should hear in the spring. Don’t worry about the DS-260 expiring. Please do fill in your timeline as well, the more EB timelines we have the better, it all adds to the body of knowledge.

 

Good luck.
