I have another question. For the people that did not attend their wives interview, did the embassy call you for a phone interview?
Just would like to know if anyone was called, and what to expect.

Thanks Again!

My wife went for the interview in Montreal by herself and was granted the visa after they interviewed her.
I didn't receive any call from the consulate.

But it sounds as if she was already in Canada by then. Mark was enquiring about interviews in China.

Ah, sorry, it's a different case then:  my wife was in fact already a Canadian citizen at that time, and she immigrated to US to join me.

I can only speak from my experience. But I was not contacted by the embassy.

You have not been married that long Mark!  I know your impatient to get your wife to Canada.  So can someone actually tell him how long it will be on averasge for that to happen if they accept all the paperwork is correct and in order.
