Hi, I just finished my appointment with Dr. Zatzman this morning. He was wonderful and everything went pretty quick except for the bloodwork which was a bit of a wait (i highly recommend checking into dynacare labs once you're done your medical, it'll speed up your waiting process at the lab).
 
I did not have an MMR vaccine record but pretty sure i had one when i was a kid (i had all other vaccines and records for them). My GP did a titres test back in 2015 (i had just started seeing him as my primary GP and didn't have much vaccination records so he wanted to check then).  i provided that 2015 titres test to Dr. Zatzman and he took that as proof as having vaccine. Also he said that even if i didn't have the Titres test, he would be able to check in my bloodwork if i had the MMR vaccine.  
 
 

Yes he does.

Thank you for this! i didn't see this post and went to register and it said the system wasn't ready for me yet as my appointment wasn't there. It did say wait a few days before trying again.  Thanks again, you've been an awesome help!

Yes.  The registration is really signing up to have your passport delivered back to you.  You can choose Canada Post or pay extra by courier.  
 
Don't freak out if you can't register immediately.  Sometimes it takes 24-48 hours before the system will allow you to get in there and get it done.  

No, because she will have to do her medical anyway and will discuss with the civil surgeon.  The civil surgeon will complete form I-693 and will include it in her medical packet that will get sent to the consulate.  The CO may just double check that the I-693 is complete.  

I just got an IL for Aug 16th interview! My DQ date was March 4th. Hope the March folks are getting their IL’s now.

Excellent news! Glad to hear someone finally gets to move forward!

While we all wait for our IL's, does anyone know if an IL comes in July, when the actual interview might be. I've seen some in the past where the IL and interview are a month apart but earlier this year it seemed at least a month and a half apart or more.  If anyone has a rough idea, that would be great. thank you for your help!

Nope nothing yet. DQ march 4th. really curious if anyone else got it if they are in march.

No, it usually waits at the NVC until Montreal gives the green light for the next batch of interview slots, and then the NVC will schedule/send it for you.
 
Now, as far as I know, or as far as I am predicting, they typically cut off the DQ date somewhere in the third week of the month. As I have observed the trend here, you are looking for roughly 10 ish weeks from DQ to get IL. But it's just my observation, and there is no data to back it up.
 
For example, my wife DQed on March 6, 2024, and the last time I checked consular operation pages last month after they updated on April 19th, they tried to schedule all the people who DQed in February 2024. Judging by posts on Reddit r/ NationalVisaCenter, people who DQed before 2/14/24 or a similar DQ date got IL on 4/17/24 or 4/18/24. So, with this limited data, I think my batch (Second half of Feb 2024 to mid-March DQ date) should receive IL in the coming dates if my prediction is correct. 
 
Fingers crossed, and let's hope that we all get IL in a timely manner.
