2 passport-style photographs? Photocopy of your passport bio page? (Plus your passport of course) Letter of intent from your fiance signed within 30 days?

You can find what you need to bring on the official Montreal consulate website- that's where you should check first.

Edit: Appointment checklist from the Montreal consulate website. http://montreal.usconsulate.gov/visas/visas/fianc-k-1-visas/appointment-checklist.html

PLEASE note that there is an error on that page and the website says to bring an I-864. This is NOT applicable for K1s; you bring the I-134 instead. They copy-pasted the checklist for immigrant visas onto the checklist for K1 visas (K1 is technically not an immigrant visa). K1s have emailed Montreal before asking about this and were told to bring the I-134. This only causes confusion now because they recently changed their website and haven't fixed the error yet. So don't panic when you see I-864 on that list.

Likewise evidence of domicile does not apply if your fiance lives in the US currently, nor do marriage or divorce certificates or custody documents unless you were previously married or you're bringing children to the USA. Nor do military or court records unless they apply to you.

Make sure you have the original and a copy of the supporting documents you want to submit during your interview.

To prevent unnecessary delays during your interview, please arrange your documents in the following order:

Valid Passport and photocopy of the biographic page.

Ticket with your number (will be given at the Consulate).

Medical Examination in a sealed envelope (X-ray is not required, unless there is TB).

2 color passport-size pictures (5 cm X 5 cm or 2 inch X 2 inch).

Form DS-230 (175KB PDF), part I, or Confirmation Page of the electronic form DS-260.

2 copies of form DS-156 completed online and printed with barcode.

Form DS-156K (PDF 292K) (do not sign).

Confirmation page of the electronic form DS-160.

Statement of intent to marry from the U.S. petitioner (signed within last 30 days).

Birth Certificate, English translation and a photocopy.

Marriage Certificate, English translation and a photocopy.

Divorce Certificate, English translation and a photocopy.

Custody documents, English translation and photocopy.

Police Certificates from Canada and other countries of previous residence.

Court / Criminal records and photocopy.

Military records and photocopy.

Evidence of Support (I-864, I-864A, I-864EZ, I-864W) and photocopy of IRS transcript or photocopy of the most recent Federal income tax return.

Copy of the U.S. petitioner status in the USA.

Copies of documents proving petitioner's U.S. domicile.
