Dear Fellow VJ Members:
We prepared for our interview based on the information made available from VJ and can vouch that this was 100% accurate and helpful. BTW, we had hired the most expensive attorney earlier whose service was truly pathetic, we had to guide them based on the information gained from VJ.
Key things to note for your interview:
1) Arrive early, relax and stay cool
2) Get all the necessary documents and please keep them well organized. No big bags, belts, electronic devices etc.
3) Stay cool, Montreal consulate has perhaps the best officers, , they like simple cases with well organized supporting documents.
4) Be honest and this will give you the necessary confidence
5) The questions posed are simple and answer it honestly and keep it crisp
6) Some of the questions that they asked us were
a) how we met?
b) Wher... read complete review

So here is my review of the Montreal Consulate. Its a few days late, but after my interview I stayed and visited with family in Quebec for a few days, so I just got back at 1am this morning.
On Monday (the 27th), I arrived outside the consulate at about 6:45am. There was one couple ahead of me, and I'm glad I arrived when I did as shortly after the line started to grow. It was to the end of the block pretty quick. At 7:30, the guard came to the door. He had us all move to the other side as apparently we lined up on the wrong side of the doors. oops. One by one they let us in and through security. It was pretty quick and we were directed through the door to the left, down the stairs, and into the waiting room as we finished our security searches.
Once we were downstairs, the couple ahead of me took the two closest seats to the elevator, and I sat beside them. The elevator was corded off, and we waited for someone to come and bring us upstairs. A... read complete review

My interview was yesterday, June 29, and am now home in Alberta. Three flights and three hours late however. I will write a separate note on the hotel after. I got up at 5:30 after having slept right through the night. I was not nervous obviously. I went down the street to Tim Hortons and got a coffee then walked to the consulate. I had my folder, my sunglasses, my smokes and lighter and my reading glasses. Got to the consulate doors at 6:30, a man was about three steps before me so was second in line. He was from Calgary and is immigrating to Oregon. We got talking and I asked him if he was on VJ. He said no. Imagine my dilemma at whether or not to tell him the secret about the elevator, I opted not to. I wanted that C1. LOL. Anyway he used a lawyer and didn't even know about DHL!!! A few minutes later a lady from Toronto showed up. She had two bags with her, one to hold her large exrays and the other a small backpack. The doors opened promptly at 7:30 a.m. and we were le... read complete review

My girls and I had our medical on June 22. We arrived early and we were one of the first people there. The lady came and opened the door but didn't mention to take a number in the order we arrived. When we got off the elevator a few of the people who arrived after us rushed to get a number, plus there were at least 15 people already there. The gate was open when we arrived so we waited by the glass doors at the side. I am assuming the other people who were already there were waiting out front and were let in another way.
We had to fill out and sign some papers. By the time we were finished handing back the papers we got right in for our blood work. The lady my daughter got was really nice. The one I got I am not sure if she was having a bad day or she is always so serious. She asked my Last name so I told her then she said first and last name so I told her. She asked me to verify my name and then took my blood. I smiled and said hi and said thank you and good bye and sh... read complete review

The people at the Consulate were fantastic! They were friendly and answered any/all questions that I had. There were four of us scheduled for a Fiancee visa that day and they put us all together in line and bumped us up in the processing line! Word of caution, however, I would get to the Consulate at least 30 minutes before your appointment. I was a bit surprised at all the people going for different visa appointments.
Once in the Consulate everything went very quickly! I think I was in the Consulate for a little over an hour. My appointment at the Consulate was at 10am, and by 11:15am I was standing outside the Consulate trying to find a payphone to call my future husband with the great news that we were approved.
I had my medical results with me and didn't have to go running back and forth between the medical centre and the Consulate. This eased the stress considerably.
