Hard to believe, but apparently true

I just got off the phone with a supervisor at NVC - she told me that all our paperwork has been reviewed, it's all in order and now we just wait for the file to be transferred to whatever department sets up the interviews.

I actually had to ask - 'so the case is complete' - she said 'yes' - but then said the stuff about transferring it to the department where they schedule the interviews and that they never give them as many interview slots as they need (which I already know of course because Montreal generally takes 4-6 months to get an interview).

Anyway, I'm rambling, I'm just finding it hard to believe I guess :thumbs:

Finally!

Not sure if your excessive short-cutting short-circuited the system, or if they just didn't know how to deal with your particular situation, but regardless, when Case Complete happens, it just happens.

Now you can re-join the rest of the club sitting here in the dark ages waiting for an interview to be scheduled!
