I went with my canadian fiance (I'm the USC) to the consulate in Vancouver on Tuesday, July 10 to do our interview. We had originally been processed in Montreal, but got our file transferred to Vancouver on the advice of several visajourniers (my fiance had moved to Vancouver in the interim). For all you people waiting endlessly for an interview in Montreal, it is very easy to transfer to Vancouver if you have an address you can use, and they are moving VERY fast there (as in they will schedule you an interview within a couple of weeks, whereas the wait in Montreal is taking months). The morning of the interview we went to ScotiaBank and paid our $100 US fee, and received two stamped receipts (as of July 1 they are requiring this, rather than processing the payment at the interview). We arrived at 12:40 for a 1pm interview. The security guard told us to come back in 5 minutes. We returned, presented our interview letter, and he let us in. As required by the letter, we did not br... read complete review

Well, we had the interview last Wednesday... sorry I didn't post sooner, but was busy driving back Thursday and Friday was busy as well with errands and such, and this morning dropping my fiancee and her son off at the airport for their flight home (otherwise I wouldn't be up this early in the morning on a Saturday!!! )
Interview was on July 11th at 1PM, we were there at 12:35PM. It was very hot in Vancouver but where the consulate doors were, it was nicely shaded, so when we were told that we'd have to wait, it was no big deal. There were 2 other gentleman there, who I found out later that they were there for K1 as well.
So, we went through airport like security... I made sure the boys didn't bring their electronics and that I left the cell phone and other prohibited items (Leatherman tool) in the van or hotel. We all made it through security no problems, even my USC Fiancee's son had no problem. I expected problems here as his passport still had not come... read complete review

I better get this done before I forget.
Arrived in MTL airport at 22:30. There is a shuttle that you takes you downtown. I think it was $14 dollars and you can catch it at stand #5 or was that 9? See I'm forgetting things already. Anyways, it's a nice big a/c bus but if your not staying at one of the 3 hotels it services directly then you get dropped off at the bus station and have to catch a smaller bus to take you directly to your hotel. It's fine if you aren't in a hurry and want to economize.
Arrived at the Days Inn Downtown on Rene Leveque. This is the newer of the two Days Inn downtown. Rooms are small but nice, new and clean. Checked in then asked which way to the consulate and how far. Clerk said it was a 10 minute walk, about 5 blocks. Headed out to find it. This was now about 11ish at night. I felt perfectly safe walking alone in Montreal. The Jazz fest was going to be starting the next night so there was lots of people milling around ... read complete review

Apparently the room that you have to sit in before the interview is very small, stuffy, and there are no magazines or anything like that. The interview was scheduled for 1 PM, but they were backed up by about two hours. The interview itself took about thirty minutes; my fiance said that he didn't feel any pressure or harrassment on the part of the interviewer.
They made him throw his backpack (which I told him not to bring, but whatever) into the bushes outside of the consulate and it was stolen.
