CR1 visa Montreal

Hey everyone!

We submitted everything to the NVC on Feb 14, 2026 and are now just waiting to be DQ’d. For anyone who’s recently been through this stage, what did your timeline look like from submission to DQ to interview?

Also, I was born in the UK and lived there until I was 12, and have been in Canada ever since (now a Canadian citizen). Do I need a UK police certificate, or is it only required for places you’ve lived for 6+ months after turning 16? That’s how I understand it, but just wanting to confirm.
