Quick or not Vancouver consulate review

So my appointment was at 10:00am on July 28/11 in Vancouver. I got to the consulate around 9:00 and was told to come back in about half an hour. The consulate has line up queues outside with a time on each line and there was absolutely no one there when I got sent away. I went to the Moonpennies cafe, kiddy corner to the consulate and had breakfast (it was not very good and expensive).

I came back to the consulate at 9:45 and was told to get in the 10:00am line. There was a family of 3 and one guy in front of me. A security guard came out and told the family to come in. Then another family showed up and lined up behind me. Then the guy in front of me got taken in by the security guard and another guy showed up and lined up behind me also. It was then my turn and was called in by security. Right inside the doors they had a table where they took my papers and asked if I had any of the "forbidden” items which I said I... read complete review

It was a chilly winter morning of January in Montreal...the feels-like temperature was -25 Degree Celsius. Me and my husband reached at the consulate at 7:40 am and we were 7th in the line. The security person allowed the first person in the line at 8 o' clock. My interview was at 8:30am. The harsh chilly wind made it very difficult for all of us to stand outside in the line.

Finally, at 8:15 I and my hubby were allowed inside. I was carrying my purse and an opend tote bag but they allowed me to take just tote and I had to transfer all my files from my purse to the tote.

The first thing I was asked was the DHL Sign up sheet, my interview appointment letter and the passport. They were not letting people go in without the DHL sheet.

Then the security check was done and I was given a token for the locker, where they kept our car keys and phones.

As other reviews have stated- I took the elevator and then went to a window in the l... read complete review

Arrived at the Consulate at 9:20, in the building by 9:45, through security and up to the 20th floor for processing. Staff was courteous and helpful, and everything went off smoothly. Very nice interviewer, who asked the standard questions: How did you meet, Who's the better golfer, Where will you live, etc.

It was all over pretty quickly. We were approved and out of the building by 10:45.

All that worry, and it was totally fine. Phew.

So, we had our interview at the montreal embassy. My fiance went alone,for I could not be there with him. So, here's his story.

Rick arrived at embassy at 7am. He was first in line. He parked at medisys and it was only a 7 minute walk to embassy. He stood on the left side of the door and the security guard opened doors promptly at 7:30am.
After walking in the door, a woman meets you and checks you off both of her checklists. She asks for appointment confirmation printout and passport. She put a sticker on the back of the passport. He then went threw security where he had to empty his pockets, take off coat and put everything into a bucket and go through metal detector.
He walked threw metal detector and it went off. He had on steel toe'd winter boots. So he was wanded and then sent through.
They kept his car keys and cell phone for him to pick up after interview.
Rick waited right beside the elevator, and then the guard came promptly at 8am a... read complete review
