Hey guys!

Congratulations with your interviews and visas! I am going to Vancouver soon for mine too - on Feb 19th. I have a question to those who already went: does the interview take place in a common area through the window or are you being called to a private booth for one-on-one interview? I saw posts about interview being done both ways on this forum, but I the ones talking about interview in a general common room are older - from 2006. So did it change since then? Of course, I would rather have my interview at a priviate booth :)

Thank-you!

And good luck to those still waiting!
