Not only that, but the CIC processing time timeline isn't always accurate, in a good way or in a bad way. It's very approximate... and depends on how easy/ complicate is your case. Honestly, for a month of difference, I'd apply in Mexico, just because like you said it is convenient in your situation. Good luck! Unfortunately, not to my knowledge.

Good luck!

Thanks for such an informative blog! I'm applying to immigrate to Quebec. I'm from the U.S. but legally reside in Mexico with my Mexican husband and our daughter. I was told by the Mexico BIQ office that I can apply in the U.S. or in Mexico. Mexico seems to be the better option so that I don't need to travel out of the country for an interview, or have documents translated. However, the official processing time, according to the website, is currently a month longer for Mexico than the U.S. Is there another source where I can find out whether the U.S. office or the Mexico office is currently processing applications faster, to help make this decision?

There is no way I had enough points (keep in mind I was only 21 years old). Plus, I didn't feel like living in Quebec ;-) @Seraphine - "Eh" in English, "hein" in French I guess. ;-) @Agnes - I'm sure you would! Funny you never came there though, considering you travel quite a lot. I guess it's the same for me, I don't know the US that well. @France - I have never immigrated to Quebec: I immigrated in Ontario. It's not because I'm French that I wanted to settle in Quebec! ;-) I'm just presenting the different options for those interested to move to Canada. I personally went through the sponsorship category because my husband is Canadian. Ottawa is a few minutes from Quebec, and I'm familiar with the province, and a few of my friends immigrated there, hence why I know the system. @Tulsa Gentleman – Not really.

It is different. The only time I was in Quebec was for a 5 day weekend. We spent the night in Montreal and looked at the old part of town which was easy enough. Then we rented a car and drove North to one of the National Parks. The people we encountered were less tolerent of our English than when I was in France.
