dont feel stupid we all been there and are ready to help if we can :)

first welcome to VJ , I dont think the NVC contact number would help since your package is already at Montreal but here is the link to NVC http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3177.html

also if you like information about your case I dont know if Montreal is answering the phone but best response you get is by E mailing them i belive you should have the e mail ady on your package 3 instructions if not here is the theyr e mail ady ; Montreal-IV-DV@state.gov

but like doug n Amanda said its a long waite for montreal , best to look at liz spreadsheat to see the average time for montreal , good luck in your jorney

Hi sheree,

Were you able to find Liz's Montreal timeline spreadsheet? It is a google spreadsheet and is located here - lots of good timeline information there.

Do you want the number for the Vermont Service Center or Montreal, to check if you have been scheduled for an interview yet?

The consulate information can be found by clicking on Embassy Info link at the top of the visa journey page. Once there select C (for Canada) and then click on the Embassy Information - Montreal link.

They have a phone number, sometimes they don't take calls, but there is an email address there too, so you can always email them.

Good luck

I put in a requested date and got it..

but Ive heard vancouver and MTL consulates are two different planets.

Other galaxies, more like. They're on two different sides of the accommodating spectrum :whistle:

Nini - Vancouver BC, Canada (she's the one who does the forum thing)

Bee - Devon PA, USA (he's the one who gave her the shiny ring)

Getting our sanity tested by bureaucracy since 2007.

Here we go again...

Removal of conditions @ VSC

9/4/2010 - sent!

9/14/2010 - NOA

  • 2 weeks later...

Thank you Len....I am hoping it would be soon though..but I guess I will just wait. sigh.

Anyways, I wanted to attach my timeline for every post I am making but I dnt know how.

Hi sheree,

Don't despair amiga, you'll get -and nail- that interview soon. PM Liz with your data so the Queen can add you to the spreadsheet.

Also, it would be FAB if you could add your timeline to your signature!

Peace, L.
