Everything seems to have changed. Got there at 7 am, security is tight so take as little as possible to help speed up the process of getting through security. They only let 2 interview people in to pass through security at a time. Then as they will instruct you, take a seat in the waiting area to wait for security to let you in the elevator (if you try to stand near the elevator they will tell yo through the intercom to take a seat). Once in the elevator, of course you still go directly to the back. When you get off the elevator head to Window 6, which is straight ahead out of the elevator and then turn left and go down the hall. They will ask you for your interview letter, then they will call you up to give your documents. Then they will tell you to go to window 12 to pay (that window wasn't open until 8:15) then take the reciept back to window 6 (someone else was there when I went back so another window asked me to drop in the reciept to her). Then you have to go out to main wa... read complete review

I went by the Consulate last night, to see where I'd have to go. Got there about 9:45 a.m. today, for my 10:00 a.m. interview. The line up was incredible. But of course, I went to the head of the line, to give the security guard my Consulate interview letter. He ushered me inside. It's much like airport security. Take off your coat, empty your pockets, belt if you have one...then walk through a security screen booth. The guard was friendly, and said it's smooth sailing now, that this is the "easy part". ha
Was told to go upstairs, where a lady ushered me into an elevator and up to the 20th floor. Again, same security situation there. After passing through the security booth, I was given a K-1 visa document sheet, and told while I was waiting to put the following forms in this order for my interviewer.
I was ushered to the K visa interview area, which is really only 4 chairs (ripped vinyl) in front of teller like windows numbered 1-5 with just barely squeezing ro... read complete review

Hi guys. I did my K3 interview on Wednesday the 25th. I drove to Montreal from Gatineau at 4am and got there at 6am. Had to pick up my medical results at Medisys on Sherbrooke Ouest. Then the fun began. Mapquest had me on a wild goose chase to find the consulate. I walked for at least 30 min in the wrong direction... in the rain. Then after stopping at a hotel to get directions, the Consulate was only 2 blocks away to the right on Rene Levesque, when I went left hehe.
Good advice is to leave cellphone, electronic car door devices in the car. Put your stuff in a plastic grocery bag, all of this saves alot of time when you are being checked at the door. I have seen a guy that was waiting with a nylon shoulder bag, and the office told him that he must leave the building with his bag, and bring it as far as possible away from the consulate. The guy ended up throwing away his bag in a garbage can, blocks away.
Then, when your number is called and you present t... read complete review

We arrived at the Consulate at 745 and there were people waiting outside. Bruce noticed that there were also people inside, so we went in and were asked to show my appointment letter and passport (which I already knew about). We went through the security checkpoint fairly quickly and we were sent downstairs to wait until 8 when the guard would bring us upstairs via elevator. We didn't wait long and the guard was ready for us. They packed us in like sardines and we were off to the 19th floor. Once there, we turned left and sat down in front of window 14 (which was still closed). Around 815, the window opened and we were in business. I was fourth in line but third to get a number because the person in front of me was picking something up. My number was C3 which is kind of weird because my last name starts with a C and 3 is my favourite number. Anyway, we were asked to sit in the "immigrant visa waiting area", which we did. We were sitting approx. 10 to 15 minutes and we were called to wi... read complete review
