Good luck on your interview.

Break The Rules, Forgive Quickly,

Kiss Slowly, Love Truly,

Laugh Uncontrollably,

And Never Regret Anything

That Made You Smile.

Thanks for the support guys and girls! It's really helped me get through this intolerable wait I've unfortunately been subjected to. But, what can we do? The consulate is severely understaffed. They can only go as fast as they are able to.

Just a quick question, is the entrance to the consulate facing Rene-Levesque or is it down the little side-street (Ste-Alexandre)?

It's on the side street and is not at all how I pictured the entrance to a Consulate looking. Very plain and blah.

Hey Dawg, you can go on google maps street view and walk around the whole consulate area. It shows you the side street, but you can't walk down it, although you can go around the whole rest of the neighborhood. It's a good way to familarize yourself.

US born, Canadian raised, Irish Blood.
