| - In all the places where you go to get some sort of official document (passport, driver's license, health card, visa, etc.), this is actually my favourite!
When I went in, there was a touch screen where you picked the reason you're visiting (Picking up visa, individual visa, online appointment, etc.) and you get the little paper slip with your number on it.
The waiting area is very spacious and it looks new and well maintained. It wasn't dirty! There are a couple of screens that tell you which ticket number goes where and it makes a really loud noise when it's a new number's turn. I really liked that.
I barely waited 10min before my number came up! When I commented on how quick it was, the lady told me that it's a lot less busy today, since there was a huge snow storm yesterday.
The lady who helped me was super nice and she was very efficient. She asked me to make a few photocopies of documents and when she saw that I was having trouble, she came over to help without me asking.
The printers are 25c per page (change only) and to get the picture taken, it's 10$ (cash or card).
The visa's ready in 4 business days which I think is very fast.
All in all, I actually loved this place. Weirdly enough, I can't wait to go back!
