Review Topic: K1 Visa

The consulate officer didn't ask for any evidence of our relationship (and I had several inches of paperwork documenting it). He just looked through the I-129-F file and the paperwork they'd specifically asked for and commented on / asked about a few things: where I'm moving to (he knew a city in the area), one of the photos of my fiance and me submitted with the I-129F (he asked where it was taken), and a couple of questions/comments about how my fiance and I met and the work we do. He also asked if my fiance has any dependants, but it was all very conversational. I think he was checking to see how easily I was able to talk about the details when he drew attention to them.

Then he finished with "Everything appears to be in order" and asked if I wanted to pick up the package the next day at 2:30 or have it mailed to me.

Review Topic: K3 Visa

Got into Montreal around midnight on Sunday night, checked into the Days Inn Centre Ville. Woke up the next morning and walked to the Consulate, which took about 10 minutes. Got there at 6:45am and was first in line, but decided we wanted a cup of coffee from the corner store. Doors opened at about 7:25am, we were out of there by 8:55am. Nothing spectacular to add to anyone else's comments, it went as easy as one could hope. Visa arrived in the mail today (Thursday) so we're good to go!

The interview process was very smooth. Basic questions asked...were very friendly. I was very worried going in...but the whole thing went very smoothly.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Hi Everybody I just wanted to put up a post for all that might be a little stressed out over their upcoming interview in Montreal and pay it forward for all of the help that everyones wonderful posts have helped me. Lol..........good thing I wasn't stressed right??????? Right...........lol.

But truthfully it was one of THE easiest things I have ever been through!!!! The thing is that most of us compare this to the horrors that so many of us have been through with the CBO's at the Canadian Airports(Particulary Pearson) don't we????? I know I did!!! But when speaking with my lawyer one week prior to my interview he reminded me that these are Consulate people that will interview you and not Custom Officers........two different breeds trust me!!!

All of which resulted in just ordinary people really that look at your stuff more logistically than anything else and that the interview isn't really about you in particular but about the relationship that you and yo... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

We arrived at the consulate at 12:20 - apparently that's too early for a 1:00 appointment, and the security guards told us to come back. Returned at approximately 12:45, and went upstairs to begin the wait.... which wasn't all that bad. Gave the lady at the first window all my documents, and then waited some more. It seemed like they were trying to get everyone's files in order before starting the interviews. Anyhow, finally I was called to the second window, and did the fingerprinting and interview. My fiance was able to be there with me, which was really nice and I think helped. She asked me a few questions, was impressed with all my organized documents , and issued the visa.

One notable thing - because it was just before a holiday, and since I was flying back to Calgary this morning, they were able to issue and process the visa before we left yesterday afternoon. All told, we were there from 12:45 until nearly 3:30, but the extra wait time ... read complete review
