Spousal Sponsorship Interview Questionaires, Experience, Preparations

[zee7447]

Hello everyone
I have some questions regarding an application. My wife is from Bangladesh and i applied for her PR in march 2015. On June 10th she received a letter that she is on interview list. After that i applied for her visit visa 2 times and both time was rejected. I visited her on July 2015 for 2 months. I received GCMS notes and visa officer had some doubt about our marriage. I sent the Visa officer an email clarifying the doubts and also all the expenses and our honeymoon documents in the email. SVO received her file on May 25th 2015 and ever since then her status on ECAS was APPLICATION RECEIVED. Suddenly after 1 week later sending the email to Visa officer the status changed from APPLICATION RECEIVED to IN PROCESS. Is that a good sign? Is that mean her interview is waived? I read in different forums that the status never changes to in process till you give the interview. I also read that in process means the application is in final stage and close to passport submission request. Please let me know if anyone knows anything about it. Thanks in Advance

Application submission March 1st 2015
AOR received May 10th 2015
File Transfered to SVO May 25th 2015
Interview Letter received June 10th 2015
Application changed "APPLICATION RECEIVED to IN PROCESS" October 11th 2015 ( 1 week after sending email to visa officer with clarification)

Looks like it is a good sign. In this thread there was a case like this which you already saw! Good luck!

Im sponsor me and my wife went together for interview on oct 7 in Islamabad. The visa officer was lady and took one hour with my wife and 20 min together. She did not clarify if i passed or not but gave back passport and said she will decide in one month when she goes back to london. She gave back some documents but she kept police certificate(first time given on interview), photocopies of our both passports, money transfers, some ruqsti pictures, 4 passport size photos. Does that mean she rejected my case?

If you could prove genuine relationship, you will get positive response. Normally you can tell by the body language of the interviewer whether the result is positive or not.

and why would someone have to prove a legitimate relationship in the first place?????
every marriage should be legit, and not oh lets get married after 3 days of meeting you

 

[wjmund]

Not so; There are couples who married after meeting for one week, still happily married. There are couples who married after knowing each other five years, and divorced in two years.
Chairman Xi, a pretty smart man in China, said after meeting a woman for 40 minutes, "i will marry her". They married shortly after. Perhaps you should think more before spouting unqualified statements. Good luck to you and your marriage.

Hi,
Anyone from Bangladesh has received interview date in Dhaka? Or recently faced interview
in Dhaka? Your feedback will be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Good news! Booked for interview but waived later after reviewing additional submitted papers:

Quote from: Hasan9999 on November 23, 2015, 09:20:24 am
That was my guess that they waived his interview because the case changed status to IP with medical request etc. Also after long period they didn't inform about the interview date. Recent GCMS note might reveal some information about any progress towards positive decision.

Yes applying for TRV is a plus point even if you might get a negative decision. You have the ample opportunity to substantiate with important document and supporting papers to convince the VO. Recently I have also submitted TRV application for the second time after one year.All the best.

POSTED BY: STSM (Singapore Time Line):

interview was waived. I got the GCMS note and it says the interview was waived because the visa officer was satisfied after reviewing my additional docs (travel doc, pic, etc). Even though they asked us not to submit any more paper I did it anyway since there was not update after 16 months since I got the first interview letter. I was refused for TRV twice. you never know what will work for you.
