Does anyone now why there is a back log at MTL? Are they booking one interview per day or what?
I have a while to wait but just curious! Haven't seenanything on VJ regarding this subject!

check out the MTL timeline to interview thread. MTL has been backlogged since last year - then came the Adam Walsh act, which made them even slower. As of today, waiting time between submitting packet 3 and interview is circa 6 months.
Best, L.

It seems like the wait is equally long for CR1/IR1 and K visa as well. Did any CR1 filers get a September interview?

I waited from Sept 2006 to March 2007 for an interview to be scheduled. I only got the interview when my now-hubby's Congresswoman got involved!! It's insane how far backlogged they are there...

When we went to the consulate in MTL a few weeks ago there were quite a bit of people getting interviewed. They did seem to be a bit understaffed though.

Indeed, they're trying to catch up.
To the OP (and marybill) .... it helps us all!!!
Peace L.
