MY ADVICE/TIPS:

The day previous to your interview, take time to get to know the place the embassy is. Research the world round it. I did not know that it isn’t acceptable to simply keep anyplace within the space. It is in a monetary/business neighborhood so each stranger is taken into account a “risk”.

Earlier than you go to interview, loosen up your thoughts and physique with a protracted soak within the tub, it eases the tensions you will have. Be comfy, put on one thing semi-casual, that may be a shirt and slacks/skirt. I arrived there at 7.30, I wasn’t permitted to hold round and the guard instructed me to return again at 7.50 and go someplace. I believe it was Mini-Cease the place you’ll be able to kill time and eat one thing. By the way in which, guards do not pity you even when it is showery outdoors. You’ll be able to’t go to the shed of the underpass and linger there. A guard will advise you to not hold round, they’re suspicious of simply anybody. A police man will go up with you to the fifteenth ground as soon as you might be known as for interview 아포스티유.

Decide to be interviewed in English. It is a massive plus. Loads of candidates wish to have an interpreter although they perceive the language nicely. Be assured and fixed along with your solutions. Some questions could also be repeated another way. It’s possible you’ll be distracted with the look of the ECO however please maintain eye contact.

I discovered they put on very informal garments. Properly I used to be anticipating they’d put on a swimsuit so I used to be astounded however then I felt comfy proper from the start. There are solely 4 interview rooms, do not chat an excessive amount of with the others whilst you wait as a result of the ECO will simply name up your identify anytime. Between you and the ECO is a glass barrier, do not be scared to say if you cannot hear nicely as a result of he/she’s going to modify the quantity for you. Additionally, do not be frightened to ask the ECO to reiterate the query if it isn’t clear to you.

Some questions that have been requested from me:
Why do you want to go to UK?
When and the place did you first get collectively and in particular person
When and the place will the wedding happen
What does he do, what do I do
When is his birthday

The ECO will likely be taking notes on the pc, typing as you discuss and typically ask one other query whereas he/she varieties your reply. So be very attentive even when he does not have a look at you.

When you find yourself advised to attend outdoors, accomplish that with a lot endurance. Some got a definite time to return and a few weren’t. In my case, I used to be ready for like perpetually there. I discovered, they usually focus on your utility inside as soon as you might be achieved with the interview course of. It is just like the ECO or/and assistants will maintain session inside whether or not you might be permitted for an entry to UK or not.

There are hidden cameras within the embassy. Behave your self even if you’re ready for lengthy. I felt like they observe the whole lot as soon as you might be inside, your look, facial expressions, gestures and behavior depend throughout and after the interview. Consider it as if the interview does not finish there. Loads of candidates there have been impatient of the outcomes.

There have been many refusals that day, principally household/go to visa. I guessed I used to be the one one for fiancee visa. So, I used to be blessed someway that mine was not the identical and the lengthy wait was all value it, they gave me the visa that day. You may know you might be denied if there is a white paper (refusal letter, enchantment kind) alongside along with your passport.

I hope you discover this convenient.
