The consulate itself was fine, bit of a wait but to be expected.
What I want to comment on is this: my wife and I decided to attend the interview together as we thought it would show solidarity and help with the process, and instead the interviewer grilled her most of the time about whether she had actually been in Canada the whole time and whether she could prove domicile in the US. She also got hazed about her taxes because she hadn't ever filed, having been a student her whole life. Everything went fine in the end, but if we did it again I would not bring my wife to the interview, it seemed to create more issues than it helped.

Security guards start buzzing around inside around 715 and I didn\'t have my cell phone or a watch but I am guessing the doors opened just after 730. The people in front of me didn\'t have their courier number so they were turned away leaving me now first in line. Security no problem because all I had were my documents and some magazines. Left my cell phone at the airport with their cloak room as I didn\'t not have a hotel room because I was flying out the same day. Went down the stairs and sat to the right of the elevator. When it opened there wasn\'t a mad rush, the security guard just told us to go in and hit 19. I went to the back, bu... read complete review

Hello everyone.
I had my interview on Jan 7, 2012 at the Montreal Consulate. Everything went fairly smoothly except for the -20 weather. There are many helpful hints from this website (such as Jacqfass' review) so I definitely recommend reading them before you go.
However, I would like to highlight a few points that I found important.
1. Bring copies of your Payment Receipt and Appointment Letter. The lady behind the counter told me their system is not always up to date. They couldn't find my appointment or proof of payment on their system. So be prepared.
2. Bring copies of your sponsor's tax receipt transcript.
3. After getting your number, walk directly to the rows of chairs in front of the interviewer counters (across the room). Make sure the people behind the counters can see you. There is little communication between the person who gives you a number and the one that will be collecting evidence. There w... read complete review

The wait time wasn't very long... short wait to go through security and then only about half an hour wait until our interview. Interviewer was really nice and really just processed us through. Great experience!
