My wife received a phone call today from the British Embassy, asking her to attend an interview this Friday. I suppose this news could still be deemed as good news as they haven't given an outright "no" to her application. Then why am I bricking it?

When we applied for a tourist visa last year, we put a very very thorough application forward, and she was asked to attend an interview back then. She was granted the visa and visited the UK for exactly 1 month.

This time we have supplied the original folder of information, and more, trying to make everything as clear and detailed again. We have tried to cover all eventualities. We cant see what reasons they would make her go through the very stressful experience of having to attend another interview. Maybe we are panicking about nothing.

Lets hope she has the very polite and helpful lady at the embassy who interviewed her before.

Wish everything goes well on the interview.

Good luck

Hi Guemlum, seems a shame none of the more experinced members have replied to your post, 2 things come to mind here, 1st, BE are thinking why a tourist visa for wife? and 2nd is at least she been to an interview before, so knows what to expect!! as you know, all UK visas are normally for 6 months, I would think that your Mrs has a good job in Thailand and cant be away for more than a month, and thats what the BE want to be sure about i suppose,

So pack up your bum gun in the old kitbag and smile, im sure she will walk it like last time, Best of luck to both of you, Cheers, Lickey..

Whoops sorry, i didnt read your post correctly, so please ignore some of my last post, but still wishing you both good luck!!

Hehe, I was going to say you haven't read my post properly, but you've noticed.

She's visited the UK once before on a tourist visa and we are now applying for the settlement visa.

As for experienced members, I have been in touch with the most experienced of them all....the scouser. We just have to wait and see now as to why they have called her in. We will find out this Friday for sure.

Still bricking it though.
