receive the green card after arrival, share your OS155A status

@Lil bearI’ve already been stuck myself for 6 months at one point during this process. Naturally, I’m just hoping for no more glitches. Did you ever find out what caused the card to be delayed for you? I know I need to continue to be patient .
-
My card has been stuck at “Card is being Produced” since Friday Dec 2. So five days so far. For most people it seems to switch to “Card was Produced” after a few days. How long until card is mailed to me? My POE was a little over 3 weeks ago. I chatted with Emma who was no help. Just trying to manage my expectations.

@ohmygodCongratulations!! How long did it take to get issued after Montreal received all your documents including second medical? Also, how long did it take for your second medical results to be sent to Montreal? I had second medical done and still waiting for the results to be submitted over two weeks later.
-
I have not heard that 2-3 weeks between medical and uploading results is standard. I read on their website to expect around a week. I have heard that they prioritize those with interviews over those redoing their medical. I have followed up by email again and hope to get an update . Not sure what else I can do if they don’t respond again.
-
Yes, but not for DS-5535.
-
Interesting. I was offered sept 28 or October 3 so I took the earlier appointment. I emailed Lilly on Tuesday about the status of my results and didn’t get a response. The doctor warned me that sometimes there is delay if Montreal /emedical people don’t reopen our emedical for resubmission. They had my first medical submitted to Montreal in about a week. So I have no idea what is causing the delay.
-
@LAMA9 I did not file WOM. I was asked to redo medical on Sep 15. Called dr. Lyndon M. In Toronto next day and told the earliest appointment was 12 days out. Two weeks later now since the appointment and still waiting on the results. They don’t answer the phone. Where did you redo your medical and how long did it take for them to send the results to Montreal?
-
No WOM. Just AP . Sorry if posted in wrong forum

@ohmygodI was asked for a new medical this week. They asked for my passport a few weeks back but in the meantime my medical expired. Doesn’t the medical get sent electronically from the doctor?

Did you hear back yet on your visa? I sent my passport back and it arrived yesterday per my tracking # But no CEAC date change yet and wondering how long it takes to go from offsite mailing facility to the consulate. Have you got any updates ? Was wondering what to expect.

Thanks. Anybody else asked to send passport via courier? @CanNursetoUS @ohmygod What should I expect? How long does it take to get to consular officer from the offsite mailing facility? I did not use canada post since FedEx was faster. My medical is expiring in two weeks so naturally I am nervous as it’s been a long stressful process. Congratulations to those who got issued and best of luck to those still waiting.

I’m not sure what you mean by internal courier. The instructions included a courier In Authorization certificate for purolator or bls. I brought it to purolator and they had no idea what to do with it. So I brought it to FedEx and used the mailing address provided since they have overnight delivery and included the barcode page with my name and case number, as instructed, in my courier envelope. Anybody else know how long it takes to get to the consular officer?

@LAMA9 I am in AP and was finally asked to sent My passport back. They said I could use the courier of my choice, at my expense so I used FedEx rather than Canada post. I got confirmation from FedEX it was delivered this morning to the mailing address in Sainte-Catherine. What happens next? Anybody know how long does it take to go from the mail sorting facility to the consular section for visa issuance . Will my CEAC date get updated for the receipt of the passport? I was told to write time sensitive on the courier envelope since my medical expires in a few weeks.

Let’s hope they still respond to the @state.gov email , but maybe they are hoping to reduce the volume this way by taking it off their website. While I agree the bulk of their emails are not urgent, there are some that are indeed urgent/valid issues that need resolution, and in need of a response from the consulate visa operations. Most consulates overseas have phone, email and inquiry form options. It’s beyond frustrating when you need a response and it either takes two weeks to get one or no response at all.
