Thank you for taking time and sharing all the details. Very helpful.

Good to know you got your interview letter. That's better than scheduling the interview by yourself. When I logged, it was showing only one date and one time slot available. It must be due to someone cancelled the interview.

@Panda_ @God Is Good CA @samq26 I just booked my appointment. I was getting the same System is busy message for several days. I just checked randomly and found one slot was open and able to book it. Did you book your interviews as well?

Can you contact the US consulate in Pakistan and inquire about the case transfer? If Montreal has not received yet, the file is probably still at US consulate in Pakistan.
-
From my understanding, once Montreal approve the case transfer, they will request the foreign consulate to send the case file to Montreal. Once the file is received and based on their work load, Montreal will schedule the interview. Your parent's case file might have been transferred to Montreal already and waiting for interview scheduling. This is my guess. Also, I'm not sure if the consulate to consulate transfer will change the status in NVC. My case transfer request sent to Montreal in July is still pending and no response yet other than one response in September that they are reviewing the request. Did Montreal send you an email accepting the case transfer in July?

I did contact NVC and they redirected to reach out to the consulate we are transferring to and follow their process.

I've initiated the transfer from Mumbai to Montreal following the process mentioned in below link. https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=dFDPZv5a0UimkaErISH0Sy1YoH0qhFtLmlsn5fRWtORUM1VNMVlYWFAzNldZRU5KUjgwTjhFOVFWTCQlQCN0PWcu&route=shorturl Montreal consulate responded after 8 weeks that they have received the request and reviewing it and will provide next steps after the review is complete. I'm still waiting for them to approve the case transfer and request Mumbai to send them the case file. It will be 3 months in another week and still waiting.

EB Immigrant Visa Case Transfer to Montreal Consulate after IL from another Consulate

Thank you for the insight

Thanks for the response. Though not happy with the wait, I don't see any other option. So, I have initiated the Case Transfer to Montreal couple of weeks back by sending email to Montreal. Still waiting for a response. Anyone has transferred their case to Montreal before and can provide a sense of response times for case transfer requests from Montreal? Appreciate it.

Hi, Has anyone transferred their case to US Consulate Montreal after interview letter for employment based immigrant visa is received from NVC for a consulate in another country. As we are Canadian citizens and reside in Canada, we wanted to transfer our case to Montreal. If anyone has taken this path before, I would like to understand the process and how much delay this will add. We are well aware of the huge backlog in Montreal and the ILs not being sent out for EB category for months. But we are in a situation where we can't get all the documents for the interview at another country and also the kid's college that can't be skipped. Appreciate any insight. Thank you.

NVC Case transfer **after** DQ'd

Thank you. Mumbai consulate have a requirement to have PCC from India to even admit into the building. There is no way I can get a PCC before my interview date. I'm exploring all the options. -
NVC Case transfer **after** DQ'd
VRG replied to EternalWait's topic in National Visa Center (Dept of State)
Thanks for the reply. My DQ is June 2023. I've been following the Montreal processing thinking my case also will be processed in Montreal. I had no clue my case was assigned to Mumbai, India until I received the IL. I will reach out to Mumbai embassy and ask them about the Indian PCC requirements as that's the only challenge I have now to attend the interview. Otherwise, I will have to request to transfer the case to Montreal. My other worry was if my DQ date will be retained. Looking at your message in this thread, looks like the original DQ will be retained. Thank you! -
NVC Case transfer **after** DQ'd
VRG replied to EternalWait's topic in National Visa Center (Dept of State)
Hello, Has anyone transferred the case to a different country you currently reside after the Interview Letter has been received? Example: I currently reside in Canada. But I got an interview letter for Mumbai, India location. Can NVC transfer my case to Montreal Consulate after the Interview Letter is sent? Thanks -
Thank you. I have sent you a personal message.
