Soundless,
I am totally convinced that the interviews calls from LVO and physical checks from NDVO are similar to quality checks of a product before it could leave the factory. These quality checks are done on products ranging from 2% to 10% of total; 2% if product is of less critical and 10% if product is extremely critical. These 2% to 10% products are picked-up randomly from the full lot. When a product is selected for quality check, it is not selected because it is found faulty but it is selected to verify that there is no fault in the product, it is produced as per the design and it will perform the function as it is intended for.
There should be some percentage of applications which are randomly selected by Visa Officers among the total to perform the quality checks. This forum constitutes of 20 to 25% of totally selected applicants, if 6 to 8 applicants have reported interview call from the forum then there must be around 75% applicants out of the forum who have also been invited for the interview. Therefore, I believe that LVO has already invited around 25 to 30 applicants for the interview in Abu Dhabi during the last week of February.
I suggest all applicants who are invited for the interview to clearly understand that they are picked up randomly and just called for quality checks. I believe, LVO didn't find anything wrong in their application while calling for the interview but they will test the applicant during the interview to assess if applicant is genuine or not. I can suggest three things for the interview; first one is to bring all required updated forms and original documents, nothing should be left behind, second one is to remember each bit of information given by them in their application and third one is to answer only what is being asked, neither one word less nor one word more. I am sure if each applicant follow this strategy, he/she will pass this quality check.
I wish good luck everyone called for the interview.
