I just got off the phone with the consulate in Vancouver. My passport is in the mail stamped with my E-2 and I didn't have to have an interview.
I have had E-2's before ( 6 years in Korea) so I guess if you've had a number of visas in the past Vancouver is willing to forgo the interview.
Just wanted to share the information.

You dont have to do an interview if you have had an e2 before just to let you know...Nothing new there

That's theoretically true, but in practice it's entirely up to the consulate.

Forget about that, here is the exciting news:

For those living in Alberta, Saskatchewan and the Yukon, no need to go to the consulate for interviews. You can now do a video self-introduction and send it on CD.

I hope Toronto and Montreal follow suit.

We've also had clients in New Brunswick do the interview via webcam with Montreal, so that's a good step too.

Come on Toronto (and the rest of the US), time to step up!

Info available at the Vancouver consulate's site:

Hope that helps some people.
