Montreal Visa Office ... Let's connect here.

Yes. Not specifically with Montreal but there are many cases like that.
Miracles do happen. So lets see. I personally cant believe I crossed 4 months. I really wanted it to be over by now. For me the coping mechanism is to find as much data as possible. Its difficult to hope in the dark. I know Montreal is slow but I still hope that they change their ways soon. There are far too many battles ahead of ppr. Don’t want to get drained just waiting for ppr
So true. But you know only tough people get tough battles. Somehow that gives me strength to think of it that way. Whatever i apply for, i usually face delays so im kind of used to it. But visa uncertainty is certainly a beast
Just for laughs: Analogy between the Montreal VO and a supermassive black hole 
Montreal VO seems like a distant supermassive black hole that isn't surrounded with a plenty of matter (the PR applications).
However, once the application flies nearby to it, it's gonna fall into the event horizon of the Montreal VO and 'time' virtually stops there.
That's the reason that the Montreal folks work in a completely different time scale (because time runs extremely slower close to the black hole), making their movements so slow that it takes months for them to actually reach to the files and even touch it. After they have files in their hands they again work pretty slowly on them and put it aside leaving them unfinished. Again it takes weeks or even months for them to take the files back and finish the incomplete work.
In the meantime, the outside observers (us) have no idea on what's going on there because it's a black hole where most of the laws of physics don't apply. However, the black hole releases, every now and then, some 'Hawking radiations' in the form of GCMS notes and application outcomes (PPRs).
Let's hope that all of us get the positive information out of those Hawking radiations pretty soon

Hi Canasha
My case is an Inland application and as per my last month call update my criminality has started. Its not a big deal to have it wrong but though i will share.
cansha, I applied for the GCMS on October 16, just in case if you want to add this info to the post.
Sometimes I get negative thoughts about “80% get PPR within 6 months” rule. What if rest of the 20% are all from slow VOs like Montreal?
But then a positive thought crossed my mind too - what if they start to accelerate now, just to meet their year-end targets?!
Bad day at work for me, so my brain is hooked to Canada dreams
