My Interview Experience:

My interview was scheduled early in the morning (before embassy's operational time). I was the first one in waiting area, not even all lights were switched on. Only a Security guy to do security check.

He saw Interview invitation letter, did security check, and then told me wait in waiting area. I was told to submit some other document on reception but embassy was not yet opened So, I kept document with myself.

After 5 minutes, I was called in a room for interview.Then the officer told me that they have all the thing they need to assess my application and their concern was my Work Experience and had questions on Genuinity of my company. Few personal question were asked to me as a verification such as my civil status, etc. , then asked me many questions about my company. The officer then started acting weird. I was trying to explain the officer about some questions in Financial Statement of my company which I sent earlier, and suddenly officer got furious and told me that " he know how to read financial statement ". I dint argue. I again explain same thing again and no question was over that.
In other question: Again I was trying to explain what was asked but the officer got angry (may be acting to see if I get scared and lose confidence, as those who lie might get scared in this situation) and told me to end this interview if I didn't answer question properly. But the fact was, whatever I told was a fact and there was nothing else to say (Officer was checking my confidence that if my answer changes if he gets furious), Officer then again asked me the same question. I explained same thing again (I was little scared from inside but I didn't let that came on face), The officer then smiled and said "why didn't you submitted that document of your company", and I replied " I was not asked to submit it, so I didn't". Then the officer said that "Again I will have to send you document request, and you will have to submit it" and I replied that " if you want I can get it from my company and submit it" (I was asked to submit documents twice before interview). Officer said "Ok".

I cant mention few questions here as they are related to my company. But every time the officer insisted on answering the question that was asked. I don't know but what I felt was they knew everything, but they just wanted to hear from me.

Then, officer explained me point which was given to me for education, age, etc., and agreed to CIO- Sydney that I meet MI (from GCMS). Then officer explained me that my Criminality, Medical is clear. All that is remaining is security. Senior officer will complete the security and then will send me RPRF and PPR clubbed together, also explained me everything related to landing and visa validity also advised me to let them know incase of change in Civil status, change in address, etc . I knew all that stuff but I just listened. Then officer told me sign a part on Schedule A or 3(not sure), and asked me if I had any questions. I was not having no questions so I said "No", greeted the officer and then left.

P.S.

Interview was 50 minutes long. 40 minutes talk related to my company, 5 minutes talk regarding me and 5 minutes explaining the process from there on.
Officer didn't even saw Additional Document which was requested to bring in Interview.
I was nervous inside but I was confident from outside.
I was not even asked any questions which I thought they would ask. So, people who has interview please don't overstress yourself as they might not have same question as you think they might have.
My interview was scheduled in New York VO. My VO was CPC-Ottawa (as I am in Canada from past 4.5 years), but as they don't conduct interview's so my application was transferred to NYVO, and my VO was changed to NVYO.
I was in New York City 3 days before my interview was scheduled. I had so much fun for 3 day that I didn't even thought of interview for a second because overstress will affect your confidence and less confidence will affect your performance in interview.
Most difficult thing was to pass time after getting interview invitation as it was scheduled after 2.5 months.

Congratulations to you Goku

Hi my friends!

I received my PER the last November 28 and from that moment nothing has happened. My VO is Mexico City and unfortunately here there are few people with the same visa office to share their timelines.
How long would it take MR to come according to your point of view, dear fellows?

Thanks.

Dear Daniel,
As per trend, Its take around 65 ~ 80 days for MR request.

 

[AShweta]

Guys..whoever is posting for PPR/PR/RPRF/MR please mention your VO with every post so that we can also take a sigh of relief if it is NDVO.

Thanks,
Shweta

Dear all,

I would like to share a little story just happened to me, but it may help many of late applicants to clear their thoughts if they will fall into their caps or not. I applied my file for Noc 2133, the file received 19 December, 2014. Today I had a phone call from the IDP (Ielts Test Center) verifying with me the last name of my wife upon a request from CIC because the officer couldn't find her name when they were checking her Ielts results. I understand why this happened, as I requested another Ielts Copy with a family name different from the original ielts one to be adopted with her family name in her passport and sent it with my application. In spite this situation made a little worry of delaying my file, however, it gave my a hope that i am counted into my Noc 2133 cap. I hope this story gives hope to many worry applicants...
Regards

+1 for the information brother

Not to worry. Security is last step which can take from 2 weeks to 2 months. Once its done you will receive PPR.

Hi guys, I have a question about IELTS. My IELTS certification expires on February and my application is delivered to CIC on 12/23. Do you think it can be a problem in the future if during the processing my IELTS cert is expired?

 

[AShweta]

How did you change your VO from Ottawa to New York. I may need to change it from NDVO to somewhere in California in a months time if PPR doesn't come.

Not to worry. Security is last step which can take from 2 weeks to 2 months. Once its done you will receive PPR.
