Here is my review for Montreal consulate:
My visa got approved today and they took my passport for stamping. 04th August 2017 9:30 AM slot @ Montreal Canada.
Here is my experience:
Montreal is relatively new for me as I am live in Toronto. I drove 7 hours day before to reach there.
First I went to Consulate at around 8.50 AM and my Visa Interview time was 9.30 AM as the place where I parked it was 20 mins walk from there. After walking 10 minutes I realized on my way that there are other near by parking lots and street parking as well.
They asked me for my passport and gave me a laminated sheet with a number on it. After that, I went to security check where they took my cell phone and gave me a token.
Then the guard told me to go downstairs and took the elevator to 19th Floor and arrange all documents according to the order specified on the laminated sheet.

Good Day!
My appointment was on July 7, 2017 8:30am. I was there at 8:10 and the officer outside let me in. I gave my interview letter and passport to the lady standing by the entrance. She handed me back my passport and letter and she gave me the laminated sheet. Another officer is standing by the door where you go to get your stuff screened. I only brought the papers needed and a few cash with me. It was an easy scan. Then, the asked me to go down the stairs, continue through the hall and get to the elevator and go to the 19th floor. When I got to the 19th floor, I immediately tried to organize my papers as stated on the laminated sheet. There were maybe only 10 people in the lobby, only 4 people in the immigrant side. I waited for my number to be called, and when they did, they called me to counter number 2. There were two ladies at the window (I am assuming, the lady is training the other lady). Anyways, the lady asked for my mailing address, sponsor's mailing addre... read complete review

This review is a bit long-winded, but I want to demonstrate how important it is to be prepared, dot all your "i's" and cross all your "t's."
I am Canadian and my wife is USC/Canadian. She moved from Ontario to Orlando, Florida in April, 2017 in order to comply with the domicile rule. Back in November, 2016 when I had to select my 2017 vacation period, I calculated (guessed / hoped) I would be through the immigration process by June. So I chose four weeks starting May 24.
I loaded up a U-Haul trailer and drove my wife from NIagara Falls to Orlando in April, 2017. I spent a couple of days with her. looked at some houses and returned to Ontario, leaving her in an AirBnB house while she got ourselves established in Florida.
In late May, I resigned from my job (playing with fire, I know), loaded up a second U-Haul trailer, our dog, my two aquarium and the fish (three of the 20 or so didn't survive, sadly) and headed to the border. I declared my ... read complete review

Like most have said, this actually is a pretty easy step. The best advice I can give is be organized, it makes the whole process go faster. The staff are pretty direct in telling you where to go, where to sit and what to do. The paper they give you providing the list of required documents and their order definitely helps, and you'll have plenty of time to put them in order. I didn't take anything with me except my paperwork and that made the process easier.

Hello everyone ! I want to say thank you to everyone that wrote their reviews and gave all the information they could, it was very useful!
We had our interview on Thursday July 13th in Montreal. I live in Toronto and my husband lives in NY. We met in Toronto and drove over to Montreal the night before. Prior to leaving I checked the weather (because Canada is different everyday ) and it called for rain on Thursday. I wanted to be prepared in case we had to wait outside the embassy. I packed a umbrella and made sure my documents were in a plastic closed folder.
Our appointment was scheduled for 9 am. I want to arrive and be by the embassy by8-15 am. We stayed at the chrome hotel about 9 min walk away. Our hotel had parking and checkout was 12pm so we left the car there. We left the hotel around 730 am to get to the area around 745 am. However, due to the rain we took a cab which misunderstood and took us to embassy suites the hotel (smh). That put us anot... read complete review
