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

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

Well my husband and I arrived early 6:15 there was already one woman in line (she too was also a VJ member) a few minutes later people started arriving, so thankyou to everyone on here we had heads-up on the timing.
There's a small coffee shop right at the same corner of the street so some of us went in at differant times to get a coffee and warm up (it was so cold)washrooms are also available next to the coffee shop.
The door for the consulate opened at 7:30 the guard let us in the first glass doorways and gave us a Letter, mine was A, then he directed us to go thru the second set of glass doors, there we were asked to remove our coats and gloves(putting them in a plastic box to be put thru a scanner) it's the same as if you were in an airport)in a second plastic box you put anything like purses wallet etc and that too goes thru the scanner. Then they will ask you to walk thru a scanning device(again it looks just like the airport ones)
After your finished with ... read complete review

So the day of the interview we showed up early, about 6:15am. We were the first people there, and parked on the street with the meters(which don't start until 9am)We could clearly see the consulate entrance from our seats in the car. I think around 6:45 I saw someone show up and start the lineup, so I got out to get in line and my wife and son stayed in the car to stay warm(it was cold!) I was chatting it up with the people in the lineup (more were steadily showing up) for probably 15-20 minutes when I noticed my wife heading towards us with a look on her face that immediately got my attention. She proceeds to tell me that some guy had walked past our car, looked at her, then started trying to break into the minivan directly behind us. She also saw another guy standing on the corner behind us(st. catherine) apparently as a lookout. So she's freaked out, starts the car up and starts honking the horn. None of us in the lineup heard a thing. We can only conlude that the traffic from rene ... read complete review

I wanted to give a quick run down of my interview experience in Montreal Canada for those who care:
6:45 – Got in line at the Consulate. I was about the 15th in line so getting there earlier would be advised, however you wont be allowed in side until about 7:45 am.
7:45 – Go through security. The only thing you’re allowed to have in your pocket is paper money. Anything else you will have to leave with security. Don’t worry – you wont be kicked on to the street if you have a pack of smokes in your pocket.
8:00 – Wait in lower level waiting room. A security guard will escort you and a group of other to the 19th floor. The fun begins.
8:15 – Line up in the Cashier line. You would assume this is when you would pay your fee, but no. You get to the cashier, hand them your appointment letter and she will provide you will a number. I was C3 as an example.
8:30 – Wait for the number to be called or appear... read complete review

Where to begin!
I arrived in Montreal Sunday night, after a bit of getting lost I finally found my hotel. I stayed at Le Square Phillips which is an absolutely beautiful hotel. A bit pricey but a great room with a kitchenette. It felt like a little apartment, was very clean and the staff were super friendly. I ate at a little Mexican place on Peel St (about 5 blocks from the Consulate.. a 10 minute walk) called Carlos and Pepes. They had really good guacamole and chicken Fajitas.
I was planning on being up at 6ish so I could be awake, grab Timmies (about a 1 minute walk from the hotel) and get to the consulate, which was only a 5 minute walk away. I woke up before my alarm (5:40 ew) so I was awake and out the door before I expected. Got to the consulate at about 6:15 and lined up on the side with the yellow posts. At around 6:30 I was joined by Tdotgirl who is really nice, and another girl came at about 6:45. Shes not on VJ but she does read it. Dalene was... read complete review
