Very simple process. I am the US Citizen, my fiancé was living in Montreal, which made it easy to get there. Got there around 7:30AM, were processed in around 8:15, waited until about 10:30 for the interview. Was glad I was present! They wanted original signatures on a couple of documents, so I just re-signed them then and there with blue ink.

Our interview was on Oct 5, we were in and out in under 4 hours, which seemed good to us.
Received the VISA Oct 12, and were ready to go!

One caveat I will say is that prior to the interview, everything was quite confusing, as the consulate website is different than what is at CBP's website, etc, and although USCIS and NVC are quite helpful, the consulate communications were painful at best. You have to email them (they do not accept phone calls, period), and then you get an automated email back, and you have to reply to it with the subject "Follow Up" in the subject line and THEN you will get a reply. Maybe. So while the interview itself seemed organized, the lead up to get there was the most painful part of the process. Be VERY persistent to get your answers, and manage the process through the Packets to get yourself there or you will wait forever!
