Thank you waiting 2 exhale for your reply. Can you please share some typical red flags that I need to take care of.

Thanks again!
typical red flags: huge age difference; different religion; family did not attend weddings; leave soon after marriage; not well supported documents to show relationship is real (as I said earlier in my other post these are not set in stone so if you have age difference you will definitely called for interview. Couple of pages ago someone had said they were asked to attend interview but did not have any of the reasons that i had listed above except for sponsored person had listed as intended plan to go to Canada was family/study and i don't think this one is a red flag either). Don't worry about interview before you send in your application.

Today I got an email regarding the interview of my hubby.Interview is in febuary. Hubby was done with his medical in Febuary. But as per GCMS notes due date for medical is april. Can you guys help me ....so stressed .
did notes tell you the reason for interview? just because you have an interview it does not mean it is scary. Don't get stressed out. Many applicants have successfully gone through interviews. Maybe they can tell you what questions they were asked. Your relationship is genuine so nothing to worry about. The only annoyance is that interview date is far away and you have to wait for interview to be over then wait for visa. All this wait.

Text : Name neha intended occupation/ upgrade my education

I see this as red flag, the interviewer may think that she only get married to get better life in Canada by finding work and upgrading her education. They are basically looking for how much she is interested in you and how much she knows about you rather than planning for work or education, those are under work permit or student visa issues not under family class, I would suggest focus on personal family planning rather than financial planning.


anupam said:
I dont think so......there is a section of what you might want to do and upgrading your education is a plus for them as well as that means there is revenue in terms of studying in Canada
Just because they interview does not mean we all take the wrong meaning
Yes those are plus, what I meant was that should not be a focus, I am just giving my opinion based on experience with some of the people i know who got interviewed and refused because of that, the CIC/interviewer is looking for the genuinity in relationship how much you know about your spouse, again i am not saying those things should not be there but focus should be on family rather than financial impact, again this is just my opinion.

Thanks

There's usually a 10 day gap before the medicals reach NDVO from the doc's office (that will be the due date/expiry date u see on GCMS notes). so it's probably expiring just after ur interview.

Try requesting them to let u travel immediately or see if they can extend for one month. Once u go into remedicals and PCC, it takes forever again - almost like starting the process from scratch at NDVO.

many pages ago (way back) someone had mentioned that they went for interview and the interviewer just asked questions such as when did your husband move to Canada; how long his parents had been living in canada and asked her to show originals of documents that she had sent..so interview was nothing about...it could be that they need to interview for quality check purpose. If they don't have any concerns about your marriage, it might be just to do the quota for interview..wait until you get notes and you might get an idea..till then just relax
