Just to report that I have nothing to report... yet! :) Congratulations to all the ones who got interviews ~ and, the rest of us, well, we're higher on the pile I guess, which is still good :P

Kinda disapointing to see no names on the bottom of that list have any interview dates scheduled. No interviews scheduled in Montreal(Minus Cndwife) Lets hope those names get dates soon!

Hey everybody waiting I just checked when I got my interview date and it was this day last month. So be ready as I had less than 3 weeks to my interview! I hope all the June group get to finish this

Me neither . . . at this point I'm assuming that Montreal has fallen behind even further and I won't see a December appointment. How it can end up taking them 3 months to get through the June case co

All really exciting and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they close out the Sept/Oct completes and make a couple of Nov. Still a couple of days lef for scheduling :)

And I thought *I* was the optimistic one! :P

I really hope you're right, of course...but believe it or not, I'm also thinking it's going to be March for me. I think they'll book a few more appointments, but nothing like yesterday's blitz.

I will gladly eat crow...several crows...if I'm wrong.

Just an update might be important, for those that are going to be having their medical done in Vancouver, their office is closed from feb 12-28. Because of the Olympics.

Yeah. That greatly annoys me, since it is quite likely that it's going to impact me if I get scheduled for either a February or March interview.

I suppose I could always have the medical done in Montreal if I needed to, since they don't seem to restrict their immigration medicals to one day per week...

Or you could schedule it now, they might let you in since they are going to be closed for a month?

Can't schedule it without having an interview date set, though. I don't want to give them a bogus date and then show up without a letter...

Hey Wyatt....If you are in the Vancouver area anyway...would it hurt to take all the paperwork you DO have and ask if they could scheduale your medical incase you find out the 15th that your interveiw is like March 2nd (which is a Tuesday) ....They MUST have a freaking idea how this will affect applicants..... Like...print out the tracking sheet and show them that there is a likeyhood that you get early MArch....

I was totally prepared to do just that...in fact I mentioned to NVC once that the office was going to be closed and she said something like, 'they were aware of that and there were provisions or adjutments or some such word' ......
