    I got a status of "Pending Consular Authorization" for my interview waiver. Is this new? The status says it could take up to 5 weeks. Since I'm already in Canada I only have 6 weeks. Is it even possible to look for interview appointments or at another consulate if this is only for Toronto?

    H4 Dropbox Toronto

    Documents were delivered on June 1st as per Canada post tracking. Until June 14th it was in "No status" . At this time Case Created would be your DS160 created date. For me it was Nov 2021. It changes when "No status" changes to "Application Received".
