This is the post I made a few hours after the interview in Montreal.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey Guys Arabella and Sean here,

First off, this french keyboard sucks!!!! It took me forever just to sign in.

Ok well, as Sam and Ben and Ashen said we got there at 6am. It was REALLY worth it. We were out of there by 9am. Waiting in the cold and the light rain went by very fast and we had a great time talking with Sam, Ben, Ashen, and her fiance.

We were also interviewed by the Consulate Depty director guy. He was so nice and he seemed genuinely happy and interested in us. He knew right away that we were from VJ. He asked me who I was and then----- HE LOOKED AT A LIST HE HAD ON THE INSIDE OF HIS WINDOW!!! That`s right- he has a list of the VJers!!!! I said, "Arabella" and he was like, "Oh right Arabella!"

He asked us how we met online and how we met in perso... read complete review

Review Topic: K3 Visa

We didn't get to Montreal until 3 am and had to be up for 6:00 for my appointment.

The consulate experience itself was wonderful. We did a lot of waiting...4 hours to be exact and all it was, was two ten minute meetings. Visa will be sent express post with my passport. (They attach the visa to the passport) The first meeting was simply taking my fingerprints and more passport size photos. I gave them my medical and then was ask to wait some more. The second meeting both my interpreter and I had to swear to tell the truth and he was told as my interpreter he could only repeat the questions if I asked him to and he was not to answer any of them. I was asked how we met, what my hubby does for a living, how many times he's been married, how many times I've been married, they asked me about his kids and then mine. They asked if I had medical insurance in the US. The last question was the last time I saw him All in all it was very pleasant and both people were very patient ... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Hi Folks,
I am a Canadian Citizen and my husband an American Citizen. My IR1 immigrant visa was turned down because my husband US Domicile. They want an actual job offer and not job search. We have been living here in Canada for 5 years. Now my husband already got a job offer and will be starting next month. Can I accompany him to USA next month to look for apartment and arrange everything and come back to Canada wait here. Will I have any problem at the Port Of Entry. I heard that if your visa is still pending then you will be turned away at the POE.

Thanks
Shaloma

Wonderful...the Vancouver embassy staff are the greastest..they are helpful, willing to assist you in the process, offer words of advice. they made the whole long day less painful!!

Take the skytrain from the airport to downtown(waterfront) only 3.75 but if you wanna pay the 45.00 buck cab ride go ahead!! stayed at the Days Inn downtown..petty basic but close to the working medical(10 min walk) and the embassy..and was under a $100.00 for the night..they will allow late check outs at no extra costs and look after your bags while your running around liek liek a headless chicken!!

There was only 3 people interviewing the place was empty..just us laughing and cracking jokes to make the time go by..overall the interview process was easy..thank god!!

got there at 1 pm was done by 3 pm..out of the door with a smile on my face...

Review Topic: K1 Visa

It was 6 when we left our hotel room in that cold day...(minus 2 degres celcius)
Our hotel was really close from the consulate...about 5 mins

http://www.hotelcentreville.com/index_fr.asp

it was nice and cost less than 200$ for 2 night...
(ill make a post later about it with picture of our room)

as we arrived there we saw 2 other members of VJ ... but since they don't troll the forum i can't say their names...
the security open the door just about 15 min before 8 am and there was about 10 people waiting with us...
we entered 3rd and went through the security

i will skip cause that part is boring and basicly resume into..(waiting!)
around 8 am someone called us at booth 9 and something people forgot to mention or i just probably never read it...
YOU Will have to stand the whole time at a window.. and even in the interview there ... read complete review
