Consulate Review: Montreal, Canada
Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : December 17, 2014
Embassy Review : Hubby's interview couldn't have gone smoother.

We stayed at Le Square Phillips, just about a block away from the Consulate. On the pricier side, but would recommend for the convenience.

Interview was scheduled for 9 AM, but after reading on Visa Journey that they operate more on a "first come first serve" basis, we decided to wait outside at 7 AM until they opened the doors at 7:30 AM. Two people were ahead of us, but for different visas. It was a blizzard outside, so it was very cold but well worth it! I stood with him until the doors opened then went back to the hotel to wait for him.

Because we got in line first for Cr-1, everything went very quickly. The "interview" wasn't an interview at all really - they asked him where he worked, where I worked, my address and that was it! All of this took place behind a glass window. He was done with everything by 8:30 AM and said everyone was pretty friendly.

Saylin's pictures/maps of both the inside and outside of the consulate were extremely helpful, particularly knowing where to stand outside.

He picked up his visa just 3 days later.
Rating : Very Good

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.

** Not all cases are transfered
