My appointment was at 10:30 AM on October 31st in Montreal and I arrived at 10, I was the only one at the entrance and the security guards were very polite. Placed my items in the bins to have them go through a scanner similar to what airports hav, after that I was asked to place my watch, phone and headphones in the locker and got my purse and folder back. I was given a number with a small list of the papers I needed to get ready & took the elevator to the first floor. Once there I sat in the waiting room, only one other person was there at the time.It took about 5 minutes or so before I was called to the first window.
From there I was asked to provide :

- Passport
- 2 Passport Photos
- Birth certificate
- Affidavit of support (I-134)
- My fiancé's Tax returns for 2023
- Proof of petitioner's residence
- RCMP Background Check

She told me to sit back down in the waiting room to look if they had received my... read complete review

Please see Insta: @ggtambols for updates/questions!

You're scheduled for x time, but once you get in, there's multiple booths where people are doing their interview. I was #521 in queue and by the time I got inside the building, They were still at #512. Was inside for about an hour and my fiancé was waiting for me outside thinking it was only going to be 15 mins. They will not let your fiancé in and you won't have your phone to let them know when you're done hahah. The interview only took around 15 mins total, and the questions were really simple. They didn't even look at my proof of relationship!

* Note that I am a Canadian citizen, and we've been together 8 years at the time of interview.

Documents they looked at:
- Birth certificate
- Affidavit of support
- Letter of Approved petition
- Proof of petitioner's residence (we used his driver's license)
- Passport
- Police Report
- 2 Passpo... read complete review

I had a great experience at the Montreal consulate. I'll try to be as thorough as I can in this review for anyone who's feeling anxious about their upcoming appointment.

A warning for anyone driving into the city, google maps had me getting there with an hour to spare, but because of traffic accidents and construction delays along the way I made it there exactly at my appointment time.
There is a paid parking lot behind the consulate with flat rate parking (cash only iirc) There is street parking in the neighbouring streets but some of them seem to be permit only, and they do monitor and ticket there.

There isn't any outward facing signage for the consulate, but you will see people lining up outside the glass doors next to the RBC. The security guard will come out and call out appointment times 10-15 minutes ahead. In my case, I got there right as they were calling the next batch, so I told him my appointment time and name, and he let me in. Once yo... read complete review

My appointment was at 8:45 on September 12th, 2024. The traffic in Montréal is quite bad so I would recommend leaving about an hour and a half before your appointment. I got to the building around 8:20, there was people waiting outside for their appointment. There was one girl who also had the same appointment time as me but most other people were waiting for a 9:00+ appointment. A officer will come outside asking for you appointment time, about 15 minutes before your appointment she'll come back out and take the next needed group.

When you first walk in they ask for your passport and name. They have a long list of names and they'll cross yours off. The first floor is quite small but completely resembles a TSA area. You'll be asked to put everything you brought into a plastic container and that will go through an Xray machine. You'll then take your phone and put it into a small locker that that have available. It's only large enough to fit a phone and maybe small wall... read complete review
