Irritating.

I'd like to see one thing, just one single thing, in immigration make sense or be predictable... I mean apart from that it is guaranteed to be an irritating process.

Wow, so Newf to California! I don't know how you managed it. That's a lot of distance to cover. We are lucky being only 6.5 hours apart (NY to Kanata, ON). My husand used to live in Newfoundland (as well as Nova Scotia).

Hey everyone, noob here. I had my employment based application completed at NVC on 9/5/2008 (date received was 8/27/2008). But still haven't heard anything about an interview date for Montreal. Just noticed that a couple other folks with similar complete dates got their interview dates for Canada. Just wondering if that means I did not get in for November. Thanks.

Hi Chaalu,

I know zero about employment based applications - did you call NVC and ask if you have been scheduled for an interview yet?

Yes I did and the answer I got was that 2nd week of October is when they schedule for November. And they didn't have me scheduled yet. They might be handling different categories in different weeks.

I'd keep calling till late Friday night, since they are scheduling this week still. Looks like they're doing some of Dec. too since someone got a Montreal Dec. date http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=156892
