We got to the Embassy at 6:50ish and we were 5th in line. The doors opened at 7:30 and we were ushered into the building after showing the security guard our appointment letter. Security took people in one by one and was quick and efficient. The woman that was directing us through the process was friendly, yet you could tell she meant business. We were given a card with the letter E and window #9 on it before going through a metal detector and being wanded. After that, we were told to go downstairs and wait in the waiting room. After 5 minutes, the nice security guard came down and took us up in the elevator, instructed us which window we should go to, and then left.
I would reiterate all of the nice short cuts to take (back of elevator, directions, etc), but it doesn't matter in the long run. The order in which you arrive at the Embassy dictates the order in which you will be called for the administrative tasks and the interview.
At the first window we... read complete review

My husband (the benificiary) and I (the USC) showed up at 12:45 pm for our 1:00 pm interview. We went through the 1st security checkpoint and then were directed to walk up some stairs to go to the elevator to go to the 20th floor. Then we went through the next security checkpoint. They took the Package 4 letter. We were told to wait in a waiting room. There were 3 others there to be interviewed. We waited a total of 1.5 hours. In this time my husband submitted the papers in the order they ask for them (written on a sheet given to us at the 2nd security check point). When it was time for the interview they called us up. For our situation of married 12 years and two kids together, no previous marriages, good health and no criminal record it was pretty much a done deal. The officer asked about why we were moving down now. He asked about me working or Lyndon working. It was all very easy going and done in under 5 minutes. We said we would pick up the visa the next day and that was that. We... read complete review

Arrived at the Montreal Consulate at 7:15 on August 29, 2007 and there were already about 5 people ahead of me. Security is intimidating, nearly 3-4 officers are there to check you out. My interview was done in 10 mins flat. The gentleman was kind and courteous, and made me feel at ease. I left the consulate by 9:30 sharp. One tip : bring something to read...newspaper or book...it passes the time.
The Visa came in 4-5 days later.

I took the train to Montreal. I came off the train and got lost, even with all my googled maps. If you take the train, look for the exit that says Rene Levesque.That's the one I took. It'll take you right up. I stayed at the La Tour Centre Ville. Everyone told me to take a cab, but I came out the wrong door and no cabs. It's a 5 minute walk to the left when you come out of the station. Tim Horton's a block down and on the other side of the street.
In the morning I brought my bag down and they put it behind the counter, wished me luck (told me no one has ever came back crying  ) and I did the one minute walk to the consulate at 7:30am. There was one person outside but when I got closer to the doors, there were already people lined up in the vestibule.
Take note on that one, go in the line to the left. They were letting one person in at a time. Security guys were very nice. I was given the number E (window #9) and told to go downstairs and wait ... read complete review

Hi all,
I had my interview in Vancouver on Aug. 23, and praise the Lord, everything went very well. I had everything in order so they didn't make me do anything over, and they asked me a few questions about me and my fiance, what we did, how we met, etc. and that was it. I picked up my visa the next day! The guards and the interviewer were all very friendly to me, which I very much appreciated. The day before, Aug. 22, I had my medical exam with Dr. Ian Morgan, and that went very well too. Not that I had anything to worry about, but they were very pleasant and proffessional. We stayed at the Days Inn for 3 nights, just a couple of blocks away from the consulate. From the hotel to the Dr. was quite a walk, but easily done. We did take a taxi there because it was so early in the morning, but then we walked back afterwards, and then walked there again to pick up the results in the afternoon. Anyway, it's a great hotel to stay at. Our room was small but clean. It has good s... read complete review
