IR1 / CR1 - Montreal Timeline to Interview

[Canadiandggal 49]

Yeah i called NVC this morning around 730ish . I was hopped up on coffee so they got a ear full, however "Doreen" says that they are currently still scheduling interviews and that she doesn't see a date yet but please call back this afternoon and maybe we will have more information...If not we schedule again in the middle of september! Well no duh haha.

[mtlgato 2]

This "middle of the month" thing is just such total BS anyway. I don't think we can blame the NVC operators, because it's probably what they're told, and they probably have no contact with the people who do the actual work with the files. But we know perfectly well that, at least for Montreal, the scheduling has been happening at the END of the month.

Whoo, a DCFer (dawnlinnet) got her interview letter today for Sept 29th. She returned her DS-230 in Feb 2010, so it's only been a little while.

Well, that's something. Good for him/ her. I hope it doesn't follow that you have another two months to wait...(I think you submitted your form in April)...

March, actually. I'm kinda hoping this means they might work on a whole bunch at once now.

[mtlgato 2]

Could be; you never know with them. They do sometimes seem to do a whole cluster of cases. Good luck...

I did some digging through member lists and found a good dozen or so people to add to the Montreal timeline. Tons more data there now:

https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=ty3zWVHqStv5jMJGDUZhMiQ

There are even more people on VJ waiting than what we had previously known... crazy when you look and there is only 1 green row left - Angie'nMark with their interview next week. What's going on Montreal?!?

[Jeremy&Kathy 4]

Hey folks,

If some of you are getting permission errors trying to view the spreadsheet, please try this link instead:

https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AoHUzXDIb8k7dHkzeldWSHFTdHY1ak1KR0RVWmhNaVE&hl=en&authkey=CKnQx7gC

There is an "authkey" part at the end that is required for anonymous users to have permission, which I had previously left out.

Sorry!

Jeremy

[zenaxe 22]

Sending positive vibes and energy to everyone waiting on interviews in Montreal ! Hopefully you get news this week !!

Stay positive.
