Hi Material,Material said:
I am a bit confused. Did you get a letter from CIC or is it just the minister saying you have an interview? If you dont have a letter from CIC, immediately go to their office and confirm if you and spouse have an interview with them on March8. Ask them for a hard copy of the letter to find out if they want you to bring any specific documents to the interview.
Once interview with CIC is confirmed, take all the updates that you were planning to mail CIC, with you to the interview. Following is a list of interview questions that I found on another website. Prepare for the answers with your wife and be ready that you and ur spouse might be interviewed seperately.
Best of luck!
