Hello, i received a e-mail from visa officer and they said mine interview is on mid march 2014.i am very upset now.my problem is my education qualification.I am only 10+2 and my spouse qualification is MA Hindi,MA English and one year diploma.but till now i am working in state govt. service from my age of 20 years.my whole family living in Canada and my spouse whole family living in Canada also.but they both are living in different states.even my brother in law was married with my sister after 2 days of my wedding.he is cousin brother of my spouse.but our marriages are real.we both belongs to same culture,same cast,same language,same religion,first marriage both and we performed weddings and receptions very well.our marriages are arrange marriages.when my spouse in Canada i was talk with her on Skype 1st time but now i have no Skype history due to i am not using Skype after that.we talk every day on our mobile phones.i have only last six months calling details.my parents and my spouse parents come from Canada on wedding.about 10 people come from Canada on our wedding but now i feel visa officer looks our marriages are not real but our weddings are real it is true.how i prove/show in front of visa officer.i am very confused.please advise me?
Being requested to attend an interview is always stressful. Now - the best you can do is prepare for it. See the interview as a second chance to prove to the visa officer that your marriage is genuine. Prepare well for the interview ( you can try and search for "interview questions" on this forum and you will have a better idea of what you might be asked), know every detail about your wife, and don't panic. Arranged marriages are not very common for visa officers in London, as it's not the case for the majority of applicants, but you won't be denied just because of that, if you can prove that you communicate with your wife. Bring proofs of communication ( phone details) from the moment you sent the application (do not bring again things that were already included), to now, to show that your relationship with your wife is on-going, genuine, and strong.

Good luck,
Sweden

If you call the doctor who completed the medical and provide your details, they can probably provide this to you. The visa office misplace documents occasionally.

send them a case-specific-enquiry through the website, and ask them to change it. They might not answer right away, or answer at all, but eventually your mailing address will change :)

Bear in mind that I also received the generic, "your application is awaiting review by an officer" and the next day or 2 it changed to in process. Don't get disheartened. I definitely did, but remember you are right at the end now. The light at the end of the tunnel is just around the corner pal.
My application arrived at the London office in July 2013 and still waiting, I got the same reply back as everyone else after emailing them. Hope it comes soon.!!
Is their anyone else still waiting who sent their application in May 2013

Yes, me. If you would like a depressing read, look up the London VO spreadsheet for 2013 and find my name! You just have to be patient: worrying will not make time go by any faster! :(

Sorry I cannot help you. A suggestion though. Why not post your problem on the main board as a new topic? Someone knowledgable about CSQs may read it there. This is a thread for London VO outland applicants and so a bit limited in its interests.

B1007,

I noticed that you are not on the Spreadsheet, unless you are on it with a different name. If you would like to be added to it, could you provide the dates of Application Received, Sponsorship Approval, Date In Process on ECAS if and when it happens, and whether or not you applied Common Law or Married. Do please let everyone know when the ball starts rolling for you!
