Did any IMG’s get interviews yet? 

[BalkanRelations]

Any CMGs get direct email invites yet? I think it has happened for some people already.

Queens AP IMG and CMG are out yesterday, nothing today so far, it is so frustrating 

[Samic1988]

Someone mentioned in subreddits that IMG ON FM invites are out today, anyone received it here?

Yes they’re posted on the interview tracker page. Does that mean that all the Ontario programs sent the invitations today?? Or is it an ongoing process over the next few days? 

[Kasiunut]

of the people who got an Ontario invite, did you get it for all the Ontario programs you applied to or just as part of one specific one? Or do you not know?

[CBA]

Does anyone know if all Ontario IMG joint panel interviews for FM were sent out today or will they be sent out over the course of a few days?

[Samic1988]

Based on last year experience, invitations usually send out in one batch but you never can be sure

Do we think we're going to hear back this week?

Most of interviews will come out on after 24th (based on last year tracker post)

Looks like last year for rad onc a couple invites were out before a week after the deadline and I think none are out so far based on tracker. I wonder what's taking so long

I can say our program received 40 applications this year. Takes some time to go through. It’s been quite some time since we’ve seen this interest. 
 

good luck with Carms - rad onc is great

What province are you in? thats incredible, past few years the biggest schools were getting 25-28 applicants.

I wonder if this is a consequence of more people parallel planning with multiple specialties. Rad Onc is also great which is a factor.

I saw that UBC anesthesiology just got updated on the tracker. Has anyone else not heard back yet? Does that mean rejection I’m assuming?

Oh yeah, my bad! I got the email first but the status was posted on CaRMS for me a few hours ago for one of the sites.

How common is it for someone to get an interview off the waitlist? I applied to 2 sites of a program that's already sent out interviews -- invited to interview at one of them but waitlisted at the other :L

Any thoughts?

Did anyone get a Queens FM newsletter recently (when you click why am I receiving this, it lists you as a faculty contact) without having an interview result?
