Consulate Review: Montreal, Canada Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : September 4, 2024 Embassy Review : I had my interview this morning in Montreal. The whole process was very simple and everyone was very courteous and nice. My appointment was at 7:30. I got there around 7:20 and got in the building around 7:35. I went through the security check. Make sure you do not bring a big bag and unnecessary electronics. They ask you to put your phone in a box, locked with a key you keep on yourself. You get to sit in a very well lit room and you have to wait for your number, previously given to you by the security. I got called for my documents. They asked for: My passport My original birth certificate with translation My original marriage certificate They asked if my husband or I have been married before (no) or if we have kids (no) My police clearance document A passport picture They took my fingerprints afterwards and then told me I'm good to go. It took about 15-20 minutes (Maybe less. I didn't have a way to check time so I really don't know, to be honest) before I was called to the next window. The immigration agent was so sweet and nice. She asked me how I was doing and I told her I'm super nervous but going well. She said everything will be fine. She asked me: Who is your sponsor How did you meet him When did you first meet online When did you first meet in person Was it in Canada or US How frequent do you travel to the US What's the purpose of the travels what is my husband's job His address If that's where I'll be moving to And that's about it She was very nice and engaged in the conversation. She kept saying how fun and exciting it was. At the end, she said she was happy to tell me that she is approving my case. 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.
