Hi! I filed for both my parents in June 2023 as well and they will also have their interview in Montreal! Question - were  your parent's 1-130's and DQ dates aligned? Sadly, my mom's 1-130 approval was months earlier than my dad's. I waited until October and then decided to just continue the process for her so her DQ is 10/24/2024, and then my dad was finally approved end of October and his DQ date was 11/19/2024 (so almost a month later). Wondering if your dates were aligned from the start or if there is a chance that despite the month difference for my parents the consulate might still align their interview dates so they don't have to travel to montreal twice and go through the process alone. 

Hoping an interview notice is coming this month.....Feb is 4 months post mom's DQ in October

I wrote a letter to Montreal (one letter for each of them referencing the other's case #) and requested they they be interviewed together. I sent it in online through a form after DQ date before the interview was scheduled. We are from BC so it was very far to get to Montreal.

Hi all,

 

Is anyone in this thread assigned to Ciudad Juarez, Mexico for interview?

If yes, have you received already an appointment letter invitation?

My mother's got DQ on Aug 26, 2024 and still waiting for invitation letter...

 

What is your status in your case if you are awaiting invitation at Ciudad Juarez, Mexico?

It’s about 14 months wait, so she will hopefully hear around October time. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/iv-wait-times.html
