I (and my USC fiance) entered via Vancouver with no problems. We had just gotten off a flight from Australia and instead of scanning my passport at the kiosks like usual, I was sent to a line which was meant for people entering with visas. I was called over to a desk, handed over my passport and the visa paperwork package, and the officer asked a few questions (simple ones like "where will you be living?"). I was then sent to the back room (I'm guessing they do interrogations here too) and I took a seat while a different officer went through the paperwork and entered some stuff into the system. First, I was called up and was asked a few simple questions ("are you ready for marriage?", "can you verify your new address?", "do you understand the terms of your visa?"). The officer proceeded to explain the K1 visa anyway and provided correct information. He then called my fiance up and asked him if he was ready for marriage and then sent us on our way. Overall everyone was friendly and it wasn't stressful. The lines were short as they usually are at Vancouver early in the morning, so we were in and out within 30 minutes.
