Had my interview on Feb 12, 2019 at 7:30 am. There will be multiple people with the same interview time so don't be alarmed. My husband and i ended up driving into Montreal from Toronto the night before and stayed at a close by hotel (AC Marriott) approx. 5 min walking distance from the consulate. The morning of the interview i arrived at the consulate around 7:00 am. It was quite cold and no point in waiting outside longer than 30 mins. My advice would be to arrive 30 mins before, stand at the left side of the entrance doors. The doors will open at exactly 7:30 am when the officer places a board of what not to bring into the building.
Once you are lined up they will call you into the building one by one where you will be asked for your passport for interview time verification. You will get your passport back instantly with a sticker placed on the back of it and a laminated paper with your interview number and a list of requirements on how to organize your documents to ... read complete review

We arrived at 7:20 our 7:30am appt. The night before an email was issued by the Consulate stating that despite severe weather, visa services will remain open but staffing may be limited/delayed. There were roughly seven people before us in line. At 7:30, the CBSA officer let us in one (couple) at a time. Inside a lady at a podium checked our passports and put a sticker with my name and appt time on the back of mine. She also gave me a laminated sheet with #8 on it that listed the order our documents should be in.
After the podium, we went through security one at a time, shoes on. Then we walked downstairs into the elevator waiting area where we organized our documents but the elevator arrived pretty fast so we only organized half. A security guard sent us (10-ish people) to the 19th floor where there are more chairs and counters to organize papers. The chairs on the side closer to the elevator are for immigrant visas (K-1s). Another security guard was very polite and hel... read complete review

Appointment was scheduled for 8:30. Arrived at 7:55 and sent to the 19th floor. We were given a laminated card with the order of the documents which they wanted and then to wait for our number to be called. Our number was called around 8:55 and my fiancee went up to the window and handed over some paperwork. She called me over to clarify one thing but it was fine. We were asked to sit back down until our number was called again. She was called into the interview at 10:25 and the interview lasted about 10 minutes. She said they only asked her 3 or 4 questions and the rest was swearing an oath, fingerprinting, and they gave her some information about her rights as a visa holder. You can't bring your phone up there with you so bring something to read!

Just left Montreal on the train back to Toronto. It was a pretty seamless experience. I showed up at 7:05 this morning for my 7:30 interview time and was number 5 in line. Oh did I mention it was freezing outside waiting. The door opened at 7:30 and the let one person in at a time and I was probably in by 7:35. They handed me the list of docs they wanted and in which order. Once you get thru the scanner and security you do downstairs and we were allowed to organize our docs. We were only there for a few minutes and we got herded onto the elevator up to the 19th floor where we were further instructed to get our stuff in order. One at a time were called in order to one of 3 different windows where they asked for our docs and I was asked a few questions about my fiancé like what her name was and her address and phone number and what her relationship was to me. Then they scanned my fingerprints and I sat down. Then around 8:20or so they started calling people up to a different window fo... read complete review

We stayed at DoubleTree Hilton, which is joined to the Desjardin Center (indoor mall with food courts, grocery and shopping), underground self parking at $21/day or $32/day with valet. I strongly recommend staying there, only 5mins walk, esp. in Montreal winter!
Be sure to check the weather and dress appropriately. The ground was VERY icy and puddles of slush, so- waterproof boots, layers of clothing, etc. They don't clean the sidewalks very well because of the cold temperatures, but they add tiny pebbles on the ground to aid in traction, most people walk around with spikes on theirs shoes.
Appointment- Tuesday 5th Feb, 7.30am; Got there at 7.10am- Wife, son- 15yrs & daughter 9yrs.
Thank God, it was 4'c, day before was -13'c with sleet.
We walked to the Embassy, 5min walk, slightly uphill and very icy sidewalks- it was a bit of a challenge, the entrance to the embassy is on a slight hill.
The guard opened the door at 7.25am, the people in front of u... read complete review
