My interview with US Consulate, Montreal was the easiest part of the whole immigration process. My appointment was for 9 am and tried to get early as 7:20 but was told by the consulate guard to come back at 8:30.
I came back at 8:20 and was allowed to get in. And just like as what other VJ members have said, got a laminated number (#17) and then security check and asked to go to 19th floor. There I seated on the side of immigrants waiting area and compiled all the requirements according to what was asked from the laminated number.
After half an hour I was called on window #3 to submit the requirements but not all. Since I submitted the documents through NVC (scanned docs) they just asked for original police certificates, marriage certificate, birth certificate, passport, passport size photos and copy of latest W2 (2017). That’s it.... I brought tons of original and copies of other documents from myself and spouse but they didn’t ask at all....
Then after another half an hour was called again on window #9 by a very friendly guy and made an oath and double checked my fingerprints done earlier..... then asked the questions:
Where and when did you get married?
When did you move to Canada?
What do you do?
Then “congratulations....... you will receive your visa within 1-2 weeksâ€. And was given a blue form saying “Welcome to the USA “ Overall all time, 3 hours waiting at the consulate and 2 minutes for the interview.
Passport with immigrant visa stamped picked up at Canada Post Office after 3 days....... NEXT: my experience at POE... stay tune.... ðŸ‘👌🇨🇦🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
