Hi, I personally think we should not put names of CO/Interviewers here for discussion. Sure, it might be all innocent for now - but there are some who might take information from here (reinforce their negative feelings) to make CO/Interviewers personal lives miserable.

You can just ask, what are our opinions of interviewers at Scarborugh in general - mine is, they seemed like a good group of people, very helpful. Even though my interviewer, who's behavior was very cordial, must have put my case for CBSA review (due to my extensive travels), I do not blame him/her because he/she wanted to make sure the entries/exits match with what I have signed off on my presence calculator. My file has reached DM after 1 month of the test - but i'm okay with it.

curious to know : did the interviewer hint that your file would be going through another round of CBSA review ! i thought CBSA review and CRA review is done before one is called for interview..after the interview, were you required to submit to additional documents relating to travels/entry-exit ?

No, the interviewer did not but I could tell that person was slightly surprised by the long list - the look kind of gave me a feeling that he/she wasnt fully sold on my case - even though they kept a nice smile on throughout, my other friends who also gave test during the same time as me had their status change to DM next day.
