I live in Montreal so I took the bus and metro to the consulate and arrived around 7:20. Other applicants were already waiting outside. When they let us in, the security guard said that I could not come into the building with my backpack. I brought it with me because I was going to work after the interview and needed it. I wrongly thought that they could store it for me but instead I walked to the Eaton Centre and put it in a locker, returning only with my documents binder. I was given number 8 upon return and went up to the 19th floor. I was called to a window after about 45 minutes of waiting and the agent asked for various documents; original birth certificate, I-134 filled out by the petitioner, police check, passport, letter of intent to marry signed by petitioner. There seemed to be an issue because the letter was a scan and not an original. I worried about it after he asked me to return to the waiting area but it didnt end up being a problem.
After another 45 minutes, a d... read complete review

Everything was smooth and fine, especially with the massive help of visajourney. All the various time estimations were accurate, too (with one exception).
Also, a certain spouse immigration guide on here is helpful to a point, but is clearly outdated (wrong forms/etc).
Only real complaint is that we waited almost a year for the NVC to move our case forward and give us an interview date. Eventually, I decided to request our case be expedited (I only did not before this point because it says to provide a reason for the expedite request - and we did not have a "good" reason beyond being eager/impatient). At this point, we had an interview date in slightly over 2 weeks later.
I do not know what happened, but I *highly* recommend that anyone waiting for an interview date do these two things:
1) contact the NVC and ask if your case is complete
if yes, then
2) request that your case be expedited.
I would give this proces... read complete review

Had my interview under IR1 category at 8:30am. Got there just before 8am and the lady was nice enough to let me in and was given #10.
Went through standard security. I had my documents in a plastic folder and was carrying it in a reusable grocery bag with no issues. They did keep my fitbit and gave me a token to pick it up later.
Got up to the main hall and sat down and sorted my documents the way it was advised on the sheet and waited. My number was called just before 9am and she asked me for my passport, pictures, original birth certificate (I only had the certified copy available which I explained to them), police certificates and marriage certificate. No copies were requested. After that they took my fingerprints. Lady was very nice and friendly. Once done she asked me to go back and wait for my number to be called again for the interview.
Now, strangely they didn’t call anybody for the interview until they completed document ... read complete review

My fiance and I arrived for my 730 am appt at about 7 am. There was one other guy in line ahead of us. We waited and chatted with him and a small crowd of people showed up after us. They opened the doors at 730 and let us in one at a time. The lady at the front takes uour passport puts a sticker on it and gives u your number. I was number 2. Then u go thru security just like an airport. You are told to go downstairs and organize your papers according to the list the lady gave u with your number. We had plenty of time to get them sorted. Once there was about 10 people in the room we were sent upstairs to the 19th floor and just waited till our number was called. Once they call your number u go to the desk and give your papers one by one. Make sure u have photocopies of everything. They take your fingerprints and ask u to wait for the interview. The interview took maybe 5 minutes in total. She was super kind and made u feel comfortable. I was asked where we met how often we see eachothe... read complete review
