Just thought I'd give a quick update/review of our experience in Vancouver last week for our K-3 visa.
I read tons of reviews on VJ before we went and was all confident about the interview and to my disbelief we had a the devil interviw of apparently!
Everything else was as expected with the security etc. and the man who took our packet when we first got there (Leo) was nice. When we were called up to the window we were asked a few questions about where we met and when, and where we both worked. After that our interviewer (Hong) started in on my husband about a DUI from 11 years ago (he was 19!!). She wanted exact dates of the occurance, court & fine payments. Needless to say it being 11 years ago my husband had not memorized all this information, and she was the one sitting there with the original court records in front of her! She was just plain RUDE to us! She would make a rude comment then start typing and we would try to give her some mor... read complete review

I drove with a fellow visa friend from Toronto; it took about 6 hours, very easy drive! We stayed at Delta Montreal (a very nice hotel with very comfy beds!), a 7 minute walk to the embassy.
Interview morning I woke up at 5:45 a.m., left the hotel at 6:15 a.m. to walk down to the embassy. After a short walk, I was in front of the embassy, first in line! I waited about 45 minutes alone. Others didn’t start showing up until around 7:00 a.m., if not later. A few minutes before 7:30 a guard unlocked the door, and waved his hand for us all to move over to the left door so he could open the right door. When the guard opened the door, he asked “Who was here first”.
Guard asked me for my interview letter & passport, checked to make sure I had an interview that day, and told me to go to the next guards and they’ll tell me what to do. I was the only one going through security, that guard tells me to put my bags & jacket through the scanner (like at the air... read complete review

I arrived at the embassy at 6:45am for my CR-1 interview. I was the first one in line. Moosker waited with me. About 5 min after we arrived other people started showing up. I am not sure if it was because it was a Wed, but by the time the security guard opened the doors at 7:35am there where 10+ people behind me (twice as many as when I waited the morning before with Moosker). The security guard waved everyone over and let us in. I was the first one in and through security, yet they gave me the letter B and gave the family behind me A.
Once through the security you go down some steps, follow the yellow arrows on the floor to the waiting room for the elevator. I was there waiting by myself for 5 min before anyone else came. People slowly came into the waiting room and after about 10 minutes the elevator opened and the security guard called A,B,C&D to get in the elevator. I remembered reading the doors of the elevator opened on the other side so I faced that direction and... read complete review

We arrived at the embassy by 635-640am and we were 2nd in line, another couple was already there. It's sunny but cold and windy. Later, people arrived little by little. Doing small talks with the woman from the first couple, she told us that they will open the doors at 8 because she came the day before and checked with them. I'm freezing and I don't want to stay any longer outside. I was pretty sure they were going to open the doors at 730am, but who knows, that might have been the "winter" hours and now they were switching to the "summer" hours.
Anyway, 730ish, they opened the doors. I gave them my passport, interview letter and my fiance passport. The guard asked who he was so I replied that he is my US fiance. It's fine, we entered, get scanned, checked etc. They attached our passports, interview letter and the letter "B" together and told us to go downstairs and wait for the elevator that will come pick us up at 745am.
745am the elevator came down and ... read complete review

Montreal Consulate: May 12, 2009 CR1 Interview Review
7:10 a.m. Arrived at consulate, there were 2 couples and one single person already there when we arrived.
7:35 a.m. By this time there were approximately 10 people now in line. Doors opened. The guard motioned for the line to form to the left. He asked for my passport, interview letter, my husband’s passport and what our relationship was. My interview time was listed as 9:30 a.m. but being there early was not a problem. He asked if we had our cell phones. There were a number of people that were turned away because they were carrying large messenger- type shoulder bags. They did return later so I am assuming they went to their cars to store them. I had two large plastic accordion style files, my x-ray, Expresspost envelope and another file of papers and my wallet; all in a recyclable shopping bag. That was fine. Others had plastic bags.
We were then cleared to enter the firs... read complete review
