Consulate Review: Montreal, Canada

| Embassy Review : |
We were scheduled for 8am. Got to the Consulate at 7:30, doors opened approx. 10 min later, went through security, then - downstairs. Spent about 15 min waiting for the guide to come down and let us into the elevator. Went upstairs, got our number. Same procedure as described by many reviewers. Interview itself was 5 min, more like a small talk while the officer went though our file. Just a couple of things I want to mention:
1. If you filed electronically, fill out your DS-230 in advance - it'll save you time in the Consulate.
2. If you're filing both CR-1 and CR-2 bring your custody papers; in our case they didn't mark them on the list of what to bring but asked for them at the interview (I had them just in case).
So this step is over (relief), now waiting for our passports to arrive.
Good luck everyone! |

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
