The clinic took my blood, urine, Chest X-ray, weight and height. The clinic updates my medical report to the visa office within 2 days.

All my dear friends,


My difficult part of the interview------------------


1.The immigration officer ask ------------

a.How did your father address him?


In my application form there is no option nick name of my husband. But my father addresses my husband with his nick name. In my application form all the time I mention my husband formal name. I am confused that time but I did not show that.


I answered the immigration officer—

Ans. His nick name.


The immigration officer doubts me and tells me she will call my mother in law to know the truth is it my husband name or not. I replied in a very confidently----------------------

Ans: she can call my mother-in-law.


2.The immigration officer ask me----------

a.Did your father also arrange other marriage for you both abroad and Bangladesh?


I answered----------------

Ans: yes both abroad and Bangladesh.


b.That time immigration officer told me your father only told us they are looking for abroad country man for your marriage now explain it.


I answered -----------------

Ans: My mother like Bangladeshi guy for my marriage and my father like abroad country guy. That why I answer both abroad and Bangladeshi.


3.The immigration officer ask------------------

a.What is sponsor favorite restaurant if he wants to eat Bengali food?


I answered ----------

I don’t know the name of the restaurant but I know when he goes for Ayesha mosque for his prayer beside there he buy his favorite food birani.


4.The immigration officer ask me----------

a.How far is this mosque to his house?


I really never count the distance. But I know my husband work place and mosque distance almost same.


I answered-----

Ans: 45 mins


5.The immigration officer ask

I answered--------------------

Ans. He is refused by American Embassy.


The immigration officer asks--------------
b. He has a PR. why he need visa?


I answered ------------------
Ans. He has PR but he is not Canadian citizen.


Immigration officer said------------
c. Canadian PR can go to USA without visa.

I answered------------
Ans: Canadian PR cannot go to USA without visa but Canadian Citizen can go to USA without Visa.


The immigration officer tries to confuse and argue with me. But that moment I was not change my answer and try to answer very clam way.


6. The immigration officer ask---------

a. Who made the first contact?


I answered----------------------

Ans.I made the first contact.


The immigration officer asks----

b .You are a girl and you made a first contact. Your culture do not support it.You make a story and tell me a lie--------------now explain it-------------------


I answered -----------------------------

Ans.I do not allow any man to call me. That’s why I call him. If I want I can tell you lie that my sponsor calls me. But I told you true story.


This part is most difficult part for me because I am not ready for this situation. I answer the officer in a very short way from my point of view.


I share it with my answer because I want to help upcoming interview applicant.


Hope it will work

hello Hasan9999,

DId your application go through Sydney visa office? How long do they take?

AArCee
His application went through Singapore as shown in his timeline.

Also the Bangladeshi flag avatar would suggest it wasn't processed in Australia.
