They schedule your interview in the Vancouver consulate right away which is great. I was missing two pieces of paper work and that delayed the process by two weeks, one to get the documentation - letters of intent to marry and evidence of support - notarized, and the other week to get a new appointment. If you have all the paperwork, they will be happy with you, if not they will put you through a grinder.
When I came there the first time with the missing paperwork, I left without the visa, devastated, with a white piece of paper 221g - saying the two papers that I needed to get. So I did that, came back in 2 weeks and the man granted me the visa after he checked it over in 10 min.
The first time I was there, it took 3 hours, I was totally stressed out and exhausted . The second time, after I got my paperwork in order - it was easy, quick and the man just smiled.

I arrived at the consulate at 6:30am, I was fortunate enough to have a friend from my home city that took the trip with me and stood outside the consulate to keep me company. About 15 min. after arriving a woman and a man both for their visas showed up at 6:45 so I was glad to be the first one there. Sure enough by 7:15 there was a long line of people. At 7:35 the lights inside the building turned on and the guard took the chain off the front door. Said goodbye to my friend, he wished me luck and the guard stepped outside. He asked who was first in line and he told me to enter the door, I handed him my interview letter, and was told to enter the building. Once inside, there was another guard that asked for my passport and to put all my belongings into a bin to go through the x-ray machine. Was told to step through the metal detector and then was told to go downstairs and wait. After spending about 10 min. in an awkward basement room with 4 other people also applying for their visas, ... read complete review

I was able to reschedule the interview via email so my fiance could attend when he was in Vancity with me.
The interview itself was easy peasy - everyone was friendly. They asked the standard questions, no surprises.

The first person that Lynne spoke to at the American Consulate was not helpful. She was intimidating, condescending which made the first part of the interview very frustrating for her.  She had to leave the consulate to get $131.00 in cash,  That was my fault, I had a money order for that amount but that was not acceptable. Once that was done, she went back sat and waited around for another hour, then she was called into the room, this time she had the Consulate General himself who made her more at ease, he ask her about her experience so far, to which she replied" terrible" she explained her ordeal with the first person, he then made her feel comfortable and the rest of the interview went well. Thru all this I waited for her at a little coffee shop at the corner from the consulate. This is the way she related the story to me. Once I saw her walking towards the coffee shop, she had a glow about her telling me that the ordeal was over and ... read complete review
