Interview Questions Uk

[x846nua]

What sort of questions will be asked by the british embassey in bangkok for a thai uk fiancie visa.Do they work off a database of questions has anyone been been asked a question which totally throw the girl or are all the questions based on common sense?

[Axel]

This is one of the best questions I ever read in here.

Although I do not have personal experience why don't we put a primer, to prepare

the girls of what is coming up.

Come on, post your personal experiences, not limited to the British embassy, but

any embassy. What questiosn are asked? For what situation should one be prepared.

Me thinks it's a good idea.

There are numerous websites with sample test questions. INS even has an official online practice test that can be taken.

I have seen several of my wife's friends pass the test who speak very little english.

Check in your google shearch for KU citizenship test questions or something like that.

Here in the US it sounds like a joke?

They are the kind of questions that if your fiance knows you well enough, she will know the answers to. It's not rocket science, just asking about each other's families, brothers and sisters, their ages etc. A friend I know came over on a fiance visa and they asked her and her uk husband to be....in different rooms ofcourse!!!

How they come up with their decisions, thats the rocket science part!!!

Post submission note: I referred to two lists of questions. Big Spuds posted them while I was composing this posting!

There's a list of UK settlement visa questions at Thailand-UK and both an unofficial checklist and an official checklist. It takes about 12 minutes to join their forum; unfortunately this information is only available to members.

Of course, if they think there is something not right about an answer, they can totally confuse the girl. Somewhere else on that site there were questions about tenants in the accommodation - from the list of successive questions given, it seems the poor girl knew nothing about them!

UK and US are quite different in some respects. There's one reported case where a fiancé (or a husband) had to lie that they had met in a bar because he was told that they would be considered liars if they denied it!

How far back do we want these questions to go? Obvoiusly we don't want questions relating to the 'primary purpose' rule, which was withdrawn around 1998.
