Decided to start a thread to share my timeline. E1 visa type, DQ at NVC in 10/2023, expedtied approved by MTL and got IL on April 19. Interview date was May 8th. My case was put into AP under 221g. Was asked to fill online DS5535 form and submit my CV. I emailed my CV to montreal-iv-dv@state.gov on May 10th. CEAC case status shows updates on May 9th, 10th, and 13th. No response from MTL yet. During the interview, I asked the CO how long the AP will take. He asked how long it took in my previous F1 and B1 visa, I said a couple of weeks. The CO said it may take similar amount of time. Will keep updating.

Thank you!

Thank you! I think it is a 221g from what I see on the slip. The VO checked the box of 221g and a sub box which specifies what docs are needed.

Hi, my case was interviewed at MTL yesterday was handed a 221g form. I was asked to fill out an online form and email my resume to them. HOWEVER, there was NO email address given to me. The visa officer gave me another link (https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=dFDPZv5a0UimkaErISH0Sy1YoH0qhFtLmlsn5fRWtORUM1VNMVlYWFAzNldZRU5KUjgwTjhFOVFWTCQlQCN0PWcu) to fill out a form and said I will receive an email, and I could reply to the email with my resume attached. I did fill out the form but have not received email. Is it the normal process, or if anyone knows a valid email address I can use? Thannnnnnnnks!

Thank you! I check all the boxes. Will take forever to process

Hi, I am going to have my E1 visa interview at MTL consulate this month. Based on my previous F1 and B1 visa history, I suppose I should expect an Administrative Processing as the outcome. Does anyone have an idea of how long it typically takes to clear? I know it varies case by case but wanted to seek any info if possible. Thanks!
-
Thank you though!

The CASE tracker app is able to show the history. Mine shows that it turned "READY" on Mar. 22

Thank you. NVC always send notice to my attorney. Will check with them. Could you please share your timeline a little. For my case, Sent to Montreal from NVC on Mar. 05, Case shows READY on Mar. 22th, Last updated date changed to April 16 with the same READY status. Wanted to calibrate my timeline with yours if possible. Thank you!

Also had my case ready two weeks ago. Waiting for IL. Mine is E1
-
my company helped me

For sure! Thanks for your note! I was excited that my case status turned to Ready and thought it should be in the pipeline of interview arrangement. But it has been two weeks with no IL.
-
Thanks for your info. Appreciate it!
-
does CEAC status turning to READY mean that they would send out IL soon? Thanks
-
Thank you for your reply! My case was approved for an expeditious process and the case was shipped to Montreal Consulate. I was not sure if it will still be a two year wait time.
