There's usually a 10 day gap before the medicals reach NDVO from the doc's office (that will be the due date/expiry date u see on GCMS notes). so it's probably expiring just after ur interview.

Try requesting them to let u travel immediately or see if they can extend for one month. Once u go into remedicals and PCC, it takes forever again - almost like starting the process from scratch at NDVO.

I Applied for GCMS notes 0n dec 05so still waitng for those ones. But in my first GCMS notes they mentioned the due date of the medical is april. Another thing they mentioned in GCMS notes that there is no MOC concerns and now what is the purpose of interview , thats why I am scarred.
many pages ago (way back) someone had mentioned that they went for interview and the interviewer just asked questions such as when did your husband move to Canada; how long his parents had been living in canada and asked her to show originals of documents that she had sent..so interview was nothing about...it could be that they need to interview for quality check purpose. If they don't have any concerns about your marriage, it might be just to do the quota for interview..wait until you get notes and you might get an idea..till then just relax
