After 9 months wait, we found that our file is transferring to LA office. I think this means that an interview request is coming. Can some body with same experience share your experience? How long do I have to wait to hear from LA? Another concern I have is that my wife is holding visitor record to stay in Canada, if there is a interview in LA, would it be any troubles for my wife to come back to Canada?
We found out through an MP's request in early May that our application was transferred to LA, and our GCMS notes told us that the transfer happened in March (transfer took two weeks). We received the interview request in late June (three months after the file arrived in LA). BUT I think the interview time also depends on where you are in the queue. As we applied (in Ottawa) in June 2013, that's where we are in the LA queue. If your application is from 9 months ago (Octoberish?), you might be a bit later. GCMS notes are your best friend, they can tell you more information that can help you pinpoint when you might expect to hear. We knew we were going to hear
something in June/July cause we had a bunch of bring forward dates in that time frame.
Is your wife an American citizen? Not sure what you mean by a visitor record, did she get a specific tourist visa period printed in her passport or something? If she's a US citizen she shouldn't have too many problems travelling there and back, but you never know with CBSA.
