Just got back from my trip to Montreal and figured I better post my review before I start to forget the details.
I stayed at the Omni Mont Royal Hotel on Sherbrooke. Very nice (nice with a capital N) hotel and would definitely recommend. Cost me $146 and a nice view of the city. Parlor suite I believe had one of those sofa beds but was plenty comfortable. I would rate the hotel as a 5 Star and it is less than a 5 minute drive from the consulate.
I woke up at 5.30 am. (well I could not really sleep so I should really say I was up till 5.30 am) Left the hotel at 6.20 since I was not sure about the roads and traffic. Took me about 5 minutes to get to the consulate. There is parking right in front of the building but you cannot put in money into the machine until 9am. There was no one at the consulate when I arrived and I was dying for some caffeine. Went down to Subway that I could see but it was closed. So I decided to look for a Timmys. There is one on Blv... read complete review

Sorry for the delay. Our interview was on July 9 and was scheduled at 1:00. My fiance and I went together (I am the USC). We arrived at about 12:45, got through the security checks, and had a seat in the waiting room next to the blue chairs. At about 1:10 we were called to a desk where a very nice man took all of our evidence and documents for preparation. But then he also informed us that the consular hadn't taken his lunch break yet, and that he didn't know when he would actually get around to interviewing us! I thought that was pretty crappy but whatever.
There were two other women going for their K1s who also had appointments for 1:00 so we chatted with them until about 2:45 when we were finally called up to the desk again. Their fingerprinting device wasn't working, so we ended up having the interview around the corner where most of the other people get their visitors visas and such, but by this time the lobby was empty besides us K1ers.
The intervi... read complete review

I had my interview 12 July 2007.
The interview itself took me longer than I expected. It lasted about 30 minutes, and I was asked a lot of questions - about how we met, when, and then what, when we decided to get married, what do we like about each other, what I did when I lived in my country, my education, details of my job in my home country, why I came to Canada, when, where my son is, with whom, what I do in Canada, when I applied for my permanent residence in Canada, about my previous 2 marriages years ago, why I am sure that this one will be better, why we decided to be in US and not Canada, if I met his parents, when, if J had siblings, if I met his brother, if I ever was refused entry to the US, what J does professionally, how often we visit each other, how we decided to get married if we don't know each other well enough (we know each other for about 3 years and met about every second month last year and we lived together for 2 weeks, then for 1 month, when I was visiti... read complete review

I went with my canadian fiance (I'm the USC) to the consulate in Vancouver on Tuesday, July 10 to do our interview. We had originally been processed in Montreal, but got our file transferred to Vancouver on the advice of several visajourniers (my fiance had moved to Vancouver in the interim). For all you people waiting endlessly for an interview in Montreal, it is very easy to transfer to Vancouver if you have an address you can use, and they are moving VERY fast there (as in they will schedule you an interview within a couple of weeks, whereas the wait in Montreal is taking months). The morning of the interview we went to ScotiaBank and paid our $100 US fee, and received two stamped receipts (as of July 1 they are requiring this, rather than processing the payment at the interview). We arrived at 12:40 for a 1pm interview. The security guard told us to come back in 5 minutes. We returned, presented our interview letter, and he let us in. As required by the letter, we did not br... read complete review

Well, we had the interview last Wednesday... sorry I didn't post sooner, but was busy driving back Thursday and Friday was busy as well with errands and such, and this morning dropping my fiancee and her son off at the airport for their flight home (otherwise I wouldn't be up this early in the morning on a Saturday!!! )
Interview was on July 11th at 1PM, we were there at 12:35PM. It was very hot in Vancouver but where the consulate doors were, it was nicely shaded, so when we were told that we'd have to wait, it was no big deal. There were 2 other gentleman there, who I found out later that they were there for K1 as well.
So, we went through airport like security... I made sure the boys didn't bring their electronics and that I left the cell phone and other prohibited items (Leatherman tool) in the van or hotel. We all made it through security no problems, even my USC Fiancee's son had no problem. I expected problems here as his passport still had not come... read complete review
