hello everyone! My husband how now landed back in Nepal after his interview in Delhi!
His interview was one and a half hours long.
The VO was a white Canadian woman, he said in her mid-thirties maybe. Very kind woman, laughed a lot in good humour.
First question was his date of birth and his age. Then she just jumped right into the question we were expected!
She asked, "How did you convince a Canadian girl to want to marry you only a few months after meeting?"
He gave some answers, and first she said she was not satisfied with that, since she is canadian and knows "our" culture and how SHE would never do such a thing. But he explained more of our relationship, how I feel about marriage and how it is so similar to Hindu marriage, and how we feel for eachother. She stopped him and laughed and said, "ok, I am satisfied with that!".
That was the most difficult question of the interview he said.
Then she asked if he had met any of my relatives, the names and ages of my sisters and how often he contacts them. When he said that he regularly texts and calls my mother she was SHOCKED and laughed and asked more about what they talk about together haha. My mum loves my husband and they really do talk quite often : ).
She asked where I work and what my position is, what my duties are and how long I have worked there.
What kind of house I live in, how many floors it has, bedrooms, etc. if I rent or own, if I have roommates, what floor of the house my bedroom is.
She asked my address, and he started giving the whole street address but she laughed again to stop him and said she would be satisfied as long as he knew the province! haha
Next she asked about my father since my husband had not said anything about him yet, so he had to explain that my father is not a part of the family and she asked more about that. Then she asked what my relationship is like with my mother and sisters, how often I see them or speak with them.
HE brought up how he had overstayed his visa in Australia 2 years ago and if that would be an issue. She seemed impressed that he mentioned it first but told him that it was not an issue at all since he got a Bridging Visa to leave the country legally when he could and explained why he overstayed very well in our original submitted documents.
Then she asked about our future plans in Canada, for school, where we wanted to live, where we planned to work, if we wanted kids soon or after we finish studying.
And finally she sat back and told him to just tell her anything he wanted her to know about me and how he feels for our relationship.
She looked through the photos we took from my visit in January, and was really impressed that I had visited. He said that she got very excited and laughing again when he showed her the scan copies of my boarding passes to and from Nepal. He said she said, " Did she really come to see you?" and seemed very shocked that I had.
He had the big folder of 500 pages of proof of communication and she saw it and said that we had already given a similar amount in the original and she knew how much we talked, she said it very jokingly though. She didn't even open the folder! haha
At the very end he asked her to please not leave him guessing and let him know what the decision will be. She said that she is the one to approve him, and she has decided that the marriage is genuine and she has put down "approved" on our file. She said he needs to get his new meds and Nepal PC so gave him his passport back to us for those. So he needs to get those done and send his passport back with those items as soon as possible. She said a request for new meds and PC will come in his e-mail within the next few days and to put that into the package as well. She told him it will take a few days for his approval to be processed into the system and then a few days longer once the re-newed items arrive. She said he is approved 100% as long as his PC and meds are just as good as they were before, which they are, so no problem at all! She was so friendly and kind to him the whole time.
So he took a flight home about six hours after the interview and is now back in Kathmandu. We will be waiting impatiently for the re-medical e-mail so we can start everything! He'll be getting his new police report started this afternoon.
So there is our interview experience!
. Remember the best thing about this particular wait is that, we will get visas in the end.
