Consulate Review: Montreal, Canada Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : December 5, 2019 Embassy Review : They have a new address at the consulate. It moved as of November 12th. The address was different than those listed on all our papers as it moved on November 12th and our booking occurred in October. As of this date google was not up to date. The literature sent said you could bring a USA citizen to the interview. They can't do in since the move. Also due to lack of space expect to wait in a line outside. Dress warmly as its Montreal. There is no point in getting there before your appointed time as they call in all the appointments for the booked time at the booked time. Once inside expect about 1 to 2 hours of processing. Most of it is waiting. They will tell you what order they want all the documents in. There are 2 phases. The first is giving the documents as asked for to the first officer. The officer we had was a bit abrupt and down to business. Remain calm and be polite. After that you wait for the second officer to review your file and call you up. If you have all your items together it is a friendly and smooth process where he asks you questions based on information you provided in your application. After you answer those questions you will be approved or denied or approved pending supporting info. We saw 2 reasons people were not approved. The first was getting the wrong type of police check. You need to get the fingerprint based check. It should NOT say for immigration on it. Read the instructions for it carefully. The second reason was people did not have official documentation regarding their divorces from past marriages. If you can't prove you are legally divorced you can't get married in the USA Nd won't be eligible. If you have all your i's dotted and t's crossed all should go smoothly. Rating : 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.
