Consulate Review: Montreal, Canada

| Embassy Review : |
I stayed at the Days Inn down the street (10min walk) as the closer Centreville hotel was booked due to the Jazz Festival. I was able to leave my car in their lot with their parking pass which was nice.
I had zero problems going through security (although I think the lady that controls the door lock enjoys having people push and pull a couple of times before she opens it).
The lady that asked for all of my paperwork was polite and patient as I pulled the requested documents from my file. The cashier was super nice and almost too cheerful for so early in the day 
The gentleman that interviewed me was awesome. Did everything he could to make me feel comfortable. We got the official stuff 'out of the way' (his words) and then he chatted with me more about our hobby than our relationship and then said he'd not keep me any longer! It took about 8 minutes. I had my Visa sent to me via pre-paid courier and I received it by 2pm the following day.
All in all very painless. Well, except for driving in Montreal. |

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
