Well, it's done and approved!!! 
Today I had my CR1 interview in Montreal.
I showed up at the consulate at around 7:10 and there were already about 5 ppl in front of me. At 7:30 they opened the doors to start security (note: bring as little as possible, no fluids, phones etc), after security, we were sent downstairs into a waiting room. There is a photo booth in case you forgot to bring yours (also, they ask for a 2x2 picture, but a standard size passport picture is fine also). After about 15min of waiting in that room with about 30 others, a security guard came and asked for people applying for immigration visas to follow him into the elevator. The elevator went upstairs to a main room. Once there, we were asked to stand in a line and they would give us a number, and we would sit down in the middle of the room and wait for our number to be called. The first time I was called (10 min from sitting down), it was for finger prints and giving them my pictur... read complete review

Let me start by thanking everyone who had posted their reviews and suggestions for others to follow. Thank you visa journey for helping us through this long journey.
Here is my review:
Flew from Vancouver to Montreal the day before and went to find exactly where the consulate was. We stayed at Days Inn, which is about 5 blocks away from the consulate.
We arrived at the consulate at 6.30 am and were first in line. A girl for K1 came along with her mother. But about at 7 people started to come in and the line got longer and longer. At 7.30 the guards opened the door and asked for confirmation letter and passport for everyone. After going through the security (like at airport) we went down the stairs and sat in the chairs left of the elevator. We were in the room for about 25 minutes after which a guard came by and took us all up who were applying for the immigrant visas.
Once up in the main room on 19th floor, we formed... read complete review

The interview piece was a “breeze” thanks to the advice of VJ members!
Let me start by saying our interview was on the Monday following what was supposed to be a Category 2 hurricane on Sunday in NYC. So I left a day earlier and met Toby in Montreal on Saturday. We stayed at the Hyatt, which was a couple blocks from the Embassy. On Monday, we arrived at the Embassy around 6:30am (just because I’m crazy like that! lol), after grabbing a cup of coffee around the corner .. and were the very first in line! People started to arrive around 7, and the line just got longer and longer. At 7:30 exactly, they opened the doors and we went in. As the sponsor, they also let me in with no problem. Toby’s name was not on the list for scheduled interviews that day (a VERY scary moment but I heard this happens regularly so I stayed calm) but they let us through anyways. We went downstairs and sat right next to the elevators .. (spent some time chatting... read complete review

I had my interview in Vancouver this past wednesday aug 24th and it went really well!
I was more nervous than some folks would be because not only do I have a previous visa denial, but a border denial as well, and I was kind of traumatized from the border experience and was seriously afraid of how they would treat me at the consulate and what they would ask me about that day.
I went in, through security, and said good morning to every single person working and made sure I was very polite and they were as well. A guard took my upstairs and they sent me to a window right away where a man asked for all my forms (as listed on the consulate page) and he put them together. Also, I thought I should mention that I included a statement about my border denial (not enough ties to Canada) and although they did not ask for it, they did accept it, which I thought was great and could possibly save me from explaining it all the time when it came to AOS or whatever....So, he had all my f... read complete review
