Our interview was scheduled for 9:40 am. We headed over to the US Consulate at 7:30. There were a few people milling about outside the doors, and a couple security guards were there. The consulate itself is completely nondescript - there are no signs, and the entrance is off the side of a building - if you didn't know just where to look for it, you'd have no hope of ever finding it.
At 7:45 they opened the doors and let us in. We were amongst the first allowed inside. They checked my interview letter first, and Holly's US passport. We were sent through a metal detector, and our belongings X-rayed, just like at an airport. Some people who got in before us had things they were not allowed to have (cell phone, etc) and had to sign them in to retrieve later. As a result, we were the first ones sent through to the elevator waiting room. We sat down and waited for the elevator to open (it had a temporary barrier against it).
At 8:00, a guard came in, removed the... read complete review

The interview at Montreal was flawless. The building (and entrance) was easy to find, there was a modest linup but no chaos. Thanks to info from vj I knew exactly where to go and what to expect. I arrived at 6:45am - a bit too early! - and returned later with coffee and newspaper in hand to wait at the door. Doors opened at 7:30, passed through security, after a brief wait an officer escorted everyone to the 18th floor. Took numbers, called in to submit documents (passport and medical info), brief wait again, and then the "interview." Interview consisted of four questions - any trouble with law (no), any trouble crossing the border into U.S. (no), when did you meet, when did you get married. The interviewing officer then told me that our visa was approved, and that I should expect the official green card in the mail within 2-3 weeks.
We're now happily together... it's over, and it was all worth it!!!

Well I finally got my K-3 Visa after waiting so patiently!! My interview was at 10am and of course I got there early. So I stood in line. There were people who had bags and cell phones and were turned away at the door of the consulate.
My actual interview happened at about 11:30am after all my paper work was checked out by the lady in the booth. I DID NOT need an affidavit of support for my K-3 visa(I-134 form). So I guess you can take that out from the US embassy profile for Vancouver. However, the lady infront of me had a K-1 visa and they did ask her for the affidavit of support. So I guess ONLY K-3 visas don't need one! The lady told me to go and pay $100 for application fee.
The guy who interviewed me was cool. He was joking with me while asking me questions about my wife. He asked me where we met?,How long ago?,Why do I want to move to the US?.Why she doesn't want to come here?..He also asked me if I watch the show "24". I said No. Why?. And then he ... read complete review

As promised here are the details of my interview in Vancouver. I would like to apologize now for how long this posted ended up being. My fiancée tells me I can ramble on at times well I think this is one of those times.
First off I like to say that the whole experience going through Vancouver was excellent.
I left early from my house, as I wasn’t sure how bad traffic would be. It turned out that traffic was just fine so I ended up arriving 45 minutes early for my 10:00am appointment. I wandered around for about 15 minutes and decided to pop my head in the door of the consulate at about 9:30am. The security officer told me to come back in 15 minutes.
I returned at 9:45am and they told me to come in. At the first security check (yes first as there is another one on the 20th floor) I had to give them my passport and interview letter. They went through my folder with all of my paperwork in great detail to make sure I didn’t have anything d... read complete review
