The dreaded DS-5535 thread for Montreal. Post here and support each other (PART 2)

The CO gave back my passport. After questioning him as to why he said the DS5535 was to verify some travel history, all of which could be seen on DS260 albeit maybe 1-2 trips. Usually, if they keep your passport you’re more likely to have a faster processing! The consulate was quite strict when I had my interview about who they were letting in. We went back to ask some questions after my interview and the guard did not let us go in and just gave us a small note which had the email address to contact them (same one they send your form from) so I’m not sure they’ll allow you in but since you’re in Montreal it’s worth a shot!

I was told it’ll take 4-6 weeks. It’s going to be 10 months in a few days. I was hopeful we’d get second medical invites out soon but it doesn’t look like that’s coming anytime as Feb ppl haven’t mentioned anything. Is this going to really be a two year process? If you switch the last digit of the case number on CEAC it tells you the status of the cases before/after you. Seems like on my particular interview day alone, 6 people got put in APs. Pretty ridiculous.

Hope this works out fast for you! I’m not sure if you’ve already posted this information but when was your interview and what type of visa are you guys?

No replies between Sep-Oct. I received the standard response for an inquiry sent 12/26 on 1/6. Interview was early April 2023. Really praying to hear back in the next few weeks 😓

Some say you have to withdraw it before as in AOS it asks if you have any previous applications and their status.

I feel like we probably won’t hear anything in December due to the holidays.

Okay, thank you! I hope you, p3p, and everyone else here basically gets cleared fast! I was curious to see how lengthy it can be and just be prepared in advance

Does anyone know the longest it took someone to clear from AP?

Same with us. Nowadays, they don’t even reply to us but do reply to the congressman/woman. Yet with the generic response we used to get previously.

I believe multiple agencies such as Homeland Security, the Department of State, and the FBI conduct background checks. Unfortunately, the timelines for processing our information are unclear, leaving us uncertain about how long these checks will take.
