Hi everyone. We got great news today that our case was complete at NVC. Now, I have looked at other time lines and kind of bet that we've got about 2 months to interview---maybe a month before getting a date and then another month to the interview. Any ideas?

As far as I know the only packet we will get from Montreal will be the medical information. Then we'll get info about the interview time...will that stuff come together? and it should go to the beneficiary right, not come to me, the petitioner?

We are so happy....so far we're having a great year. Two weeks ago we found out that I am pregnant and now this. Things are moving along. Wish us luck! :dance:

Congratulations! NVC will forward your case to the Embassy/Consulate any day within two weeks. After that, it will depend on each Embassy's average time length to schedule an interview.

Congratulations on getting your case complete. My wife is also applying from Canada. Our petition was approved on December 6th 2006 and we are waiting for the interview date. I have spoken to the NVC and they themselves schedule interviews for the Montreal embassy. The 'application' only goes when the interview is scheduled. The way they schedule is: in the 2nd week of every month they arrange interviews for the following month. We are keeping our fingers crossed my wife will get an interview next month but more likely will be the month after (ie interview in March) As to how they arrange who actually gets an interview first I have no idea!!

Hope this helps

Good Luck

So....have you gotten an interview date yet? Gosh, if your doesn't happen until March, are we going to have to wait until April? God, I hope not. Do let me know when you get that interview date, please!

languageladki,

Montreal has consistently been taking 2 to 3 months from NVC case complete to get an interview, and sometimes as long as 4 months. I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but at least you are so close now!

I'm not sure if you know I added you to the Montreal Timeline thread in the Canada forum, which may help you to get a better idea of the wait.

Good luck & congratulations on your case being complete. Oh, and from what I've seen, the interview date/medical letter generally arrives about a month before the interview.
