First let me say that this is my first post on visajourney.com despite being a frequent visitor for several months. The community has been EXTREMELY helpful and the K-1 process wouldn't have been anywhere near as smooth without it.
Question: is it unusual to receive an appointment letter just a few days before the interview? I was wondering when I'd hear about my appointment (Packet 3 returned to Montreal early in September) so I sent an email to the consulate on October 8. They wrote back saying that a letter was being sent for an interview on October 22. By Friday, October 17 I still hadn't received the letter so I wrote the consulate again and they faxed me a copy (the letter arrived in the mail on Monday October 20). Thank God for email!
I arrived in Montreal last night and walked past the consulate (so I knew where to go in the morning) on the way to my hotel (The Embassy Suites on St. Antoine - less than a 10 minute walk to the consulate).

This interview was such a pleasant experience! We were all worried for nothing.
Arrived there at 7:15am. Were second in line. Guard let us in at 7:30am. We went through security and were given a card with letter "A" on it. We then went downstairs to a waiting room. At 7:45am a guard came down the elevator and called up "everyone who has cards A,B,C and D, come with me." We took the elevator up to the embassy floor.
At the embassy we were told to go into the main waiting room (which has a spectacular view of Montreal!) and wait for our names to be called. We were the first to be called up. Went to window 9 where a nice man took all our papers and asked us some questions while we did this. We then went to another window to pay, and then we had a seat. 15 mins later I was called up to do finger prints at the same window 9. After a few tries, the machine finally read my prints and the man joked with me that "If you're a Chef, you should wash your hands more of... read complete review

We arrived 30 minutes early for our interview and had no problems at Security. This is of course because we didn't bring any cell phones or other prohibited items. We had my 5 year old son with us, which they had no problem with, but I would recommend bringing paper and crayons or a pen for children to have something to do as it is a very sterile environment.
A few other couples arrived after us for thier interviews and the consulate went in order of who was there first (Which was really nice). They were very friendly even when we were missing one form (They gave us a blank one for us to fill out right there). Overall they were very easy to deal with and very friendly.

The interview went very well. My fiance was with me and they also asked him a few questions. She started by asking me to tell her about our relationship and it went on from there. It was very easy!
