I'm a newbie to this forum, but I also finished at NVC in November, and now i'm waiting for interview to be scheduled. 8 weeks have passed since completion.

I must say, it's fun to watch you guys pull your hair out about interview dates.

On a new topic, does anyone know if Montreal consulate cares if the medical isn't done in Canada? We are overseas on holiday and it would be so much cheaper and faster to have our medicals done by a civil surgeon over here rather than in Toronto, where's it's sooo expensive. Does it have to be done in Toronto no matter what?

Thanks for any help guys

Yes, the medical has to be done at an approved office in Canada.

Personally, as long as this is all over before May, then I will be as happy as a clam.

At least they left you with hope. I was told we were not scheduled.
