Please share your interview experience like:Hi everyone,
I had my interview on November 21st and its been 3 working days since then but mycic account still says that, "you need to attend an interview''. No update- is it normal? :-/

I think you should have given atleast one month in between.I got PPR on 14th November 2017 and next day on 15th November I have submitted my Passport at VFS Lahore. today is 26th nov and I still waiting for visa and COPR. Guys plz tell me normally how long they take to issue COPR? I have booked my ticket of 4th Dec 2017. :-(
JazakAllah Khair.Interview Experience. Held on November 21st, 2017.
We really do not know the reason for our interview as we had ordered our notes before the event and it was just fine. The only reason we could think of was the age difference. That's all.
Interview questions now:
1- As expected, the very first question was about age difference. She asked me if I had a say in this marriage?
2- Did you both ever meet alone before the engagement ceremony?
3- What were the dates of your marriage, can you explain your events? (she meant to ask the no. of attendees and dates, where did the event take place and all - basically, things that were already mentioned in the forms submitted with the application)
4- Why didn't you ask your sponsor to visit you again as you got married in Sept 2016 and your husband re-visited you in January 2017 so its been almost a year now? Does he plan to visit anytime soon?
5- We noticed that you requested to change your husband's mailing address? Why did he move? Can you tell me how is the new home?
6- Can you tell me your husband's routine and how often you guys talk? What does he tell you about his work? Anything recent that happened at his work and how does he commute to work?
7- Highest qualification of your husband? What's yours?
In the end she told me that I'm just keeping your supplementary information form, schedule A form and a copy of police certificate. It was a good experience and the visa officer was satisfied. Alhamdulillah.
P.S. my sponsor wasn't accompanying me and it didn't get us in any trouble.
Three things:
- Your presentation matters a lot, really. please make sure you focus more on how you are presenting documents/answers to the officer. Don't speak extra lol
- It's extremely important that you know your spouse really well. They just want to see how strong your relationship is and how confident you are about it.
- Take the UPDATED version of forms required. Download them from the website as the interview letters states links to old forms. My VO kept the new forms with her and returned me the old ones. (yes I was carrying both)
confused here: 4- Why didn't you ask your sponsor to visit you again as you got married in Sept 2016 and your husband re-visited you in January 2017 so its been almost a year now? Does he plan to visit anytime soon?October 2016 applicant. No additional documents asked before - direct interview call.

Few things:

- If possible please do carry originals of every photocopied document at the time of interview. I had my educational documents with me (originals) and she went through them as well. Keep your wedding card, marriage certificate, nikkah nama, translated nikkah nama, copy of your cnic, your spouse's nicop etc... keep them in a separate folder and label it as originals or extra's.
the officer was referring to the time between Jan 2017 visit till now in Nov when the interview happened.almost a year and no visit is what the officer was concerned about.confused here: 4- Why didn't you ask your sponsor to visit you again as you got married in Sept 2016 and your husband re-visited you in January 2017 so its been almost a year now? Does he plan to visit anytime soon?
Sept 2016 to Jan 2017? 4 months? how come its a year?
Sounds pretty clear. Thnx for your quick response and to visit PA OR spouse twice in a year is not easy. It's takes time and money and depends how many paid vacations we have at work. I also visited my wife right after 4 months of my first visit (Wedding) and stayed 4 weeks in a hotel, spent alot. Flight ticket, stay, shopping, travel... can't afford visiting her every other 3-4 months.the officer was referring to the time between Jan 2017 visit till now in Nov when the interview happened.almost a year and no visit is what the officer was concerned about.
