yeah. I just missed the April 2024 IL batch since my DQ date was late Dec 2022. Shortly after, the EB3 visa limit was reached and I had to wait until the new visa fiscal year. Also, I was still competing for interviews with the remnants of the COVID backup in MTL. Seems like the COVID backup has been resolved and the IL wait time is at a reasonable 10-12 month wait. Some bad luck along the way but it all worked out in the end. Couldn't ask for a better interview process.

This reads like Dr. Lyndon from visadoctor. Follow their registration process and then email them with your questions. They respond in near real time. Much of what is described on their website is not required...example: they only need one digital photo sent via email...no 4 passport photos.

After a very long process, I am happy to share that my interview yesterday went smoothly and my GC was approved. The staff are friendly and professional. I strongly advise that your documentation to be well organized. There was a family struggling while presenting their documents because they were completely disorganized. Invest in a document management case with dividers from a dollar store. Also, ensure you have copies of all your documents. I was the first appointment @ 7:30am and I was approved by 8:10am. This is fitting...having one of the longest wait times for an interview...experiencing one of the shortest interview processes. PD July 2021 DQ Dec 2022 IL Sept 30 2024 ID Nov 22 2024

It clearly states on the pre-interview checklist from the MTL US Consulate: "Bring the originals of all required documents, as well as one photocopy of each. You must also upload these documents to your online application. The Consulate will not upload documents for you." Source: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Supplements/Supplements_by_Post/MTL-Montreal.html#pre_interview_checklist During your time between your IL to interview, did you upload any new documentation?
-
Or perhaps my status needs to change from "Attend Appointment" to something else to turn on Document upload?
-
According to the interview checklist, we are supposed to upload documents to the online application. I have successfully registered for an account with "State Visa Appointment Service" but I do not see an option to upload documents. Is there another online application that I need to register with and upload the documents?

You’re not alone. I’m DQ Dec 2022 with PD July 2021. With sept 2024 visa bulletin of Dec 2020 for EB3, you and I don’t have a visa available. Hope this date moves ahead for October.
-
Did any EB3 get ILs in the last batch?
-
Yep, I just posted about the regression the same time you did. Bad luck but still have hope for October.
-
I think I found the reason why I was skipped. The visa bulletin just came out for September. The cutoff date for EB3-Skilled Workers regressed from August 2024(was 01DEC21). September cutoff regressed to 01DEC20. My priority date is 26-JUL-2021 which is after 01DEC20. Fiscal year for visa's starts over in October 2024. Hopefully, the cutoff date is pushed past my priority date. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin/2024/visa-bulletin-for-september-2024.html

You and me both. What is your priority date and EB type?
