My K1 interview experience was quite like all the other Montreal experiences - there were no surprises for me and I am so grateful for all the experiences shared here because I came prepared! Thank you all!

My friend and I drove to Montreal from Ottawa and parked in the public lot across the street (and down a little alley). We paid $15 for the day. After walking to the Tim's up Blvd. Rene Levesque for a hot drink and the washroom, we arrived back at the consulate doors by 7:20 and were 3rd in line. Our little group grew to probably 20 within 15 minutes.

I brought a large plastic envelope with all my paperwork and my x-ray in a plastic bag. I also had my friend's spare car key in my wallet since I knew I couldn't bring my phone. At the security screening, the guard watching the computer screen had another guard open my wallet to make sure the key was not electronic. I was allowed in with my watch, though...

We were told the elevat... read complete review

No problems at all. Interviewer was very nice and helpful. Did not take long to get approval. I had all the paperwork in order. That helped.

Went very quick, everyone was friendly and very efficient. I was first in line at 7am outside, let in at 730 and was finished and out the door by 830.

Now if only they'd be so efficient at sending out the approved visas

Montreal Consulate Review

I arrived at the door of the consulate at 7:00am on Thursday morning. No one else showed up until about 7:20. As people started to arrive I realized I must have been one of the only ones who is a member of VJ, because many of them came with backpacks, cellphones etc. All I brought was a plastic shopping bag containing my file folder of documents, and a passport holder containing my passport and photos.

At 7:30 (at least I think it was 7:30 – I didn’t have my cell phone and wasn’t wearing a watch), a guard came to the door and asked who was first in line. I said I was and he asked to see my invitation letter and passport, which I had ready.

He let me in the door, and then up a very short flight of stairs there is another set of doors. I was told to go through the door on the left. This is where the “airport-style” security takes place. You empty your pockets, remove your belt, a watch if you have one, your ... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

I had my appointment on April 1st at 9am but as we all know already it is in fact first come first served. I was there around 6:30am and I was the first one to arrive. After 7am people started to lined up. When they opened the doors at 07:30am there were so many in the line.
I got a ticket with the number 1 on it and in less than 2 min I was called to the window where they fingerprinted me and asked me for my medical and passport. He gave me the x-ray back but after he opened the x-ray package and was sure there was an x-ray disk inside with my name on it. Then he told me to go back in the waiting room. I was called again to another window 5 min later and a nice lady asked me for the birth certificates original and copy, divorce certificates original and copies, police records just the originals (she told me she doesn't need the copies), copy of my passport bio page, I-134 form and supporting documents and the letter of intent, that's it. I gave her just what she asked me and n... read complete review
