Hello, My parents have been DQ'd this week and are waiting to be scheduled for an interview. Does anyone know the wait time for NVC to schedule an IR5 immediate family interview in Montreal?

Thank you!

wondering how long it too to get an interview date post DQ, and how long after that the actual interview was? Also - were both your parents "USCIS Approved" close to each other or was there a lag between....my mom just got DQ'd today....dad is still "actively reviewing at USCIS"...so frustrating...
