Consulate Review: Montreal, Canada Review Topic: General Review Event Description Review Date : August 11, 2011 Embassy Review : I had my interview on Monday August 8, 2011 and while there was a lot of waiting, everything was relatively painless The actual 'interview' itself lasted all of five minutes. We were asked how we met, to explain the website briefly and since it is a singing site, she asked about the first song I heard my husband sing. Then she approved me! Woo Hoo! Rating : Very Good

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.

** Not all cases are transfered
