Assalam Alaikum everyone!

Hope everyone's good. i am not an active member here but i have found this website very helpful.

My husband's interview is on 21st sept in Islamabad.

I am wondering if anyone can let us know what to expect on the interview day, any tips or advices that he could take to prepare himself

and what kind of questions they might ask. Is there a strategy to use when answering the questions?

what would be a safe answer for the following questions -

Question1: What will you do when you go to USA? would it be safe to say i will look for work or i will study?

Question2: Why did you marry an american girl and why not pakistani? would it be safe to say that we were introduced by friend and then we had mutual feelings about each other.

i will very much appreciate your response.

thank you

Rabbia

All advice I see is to be clear, confident and concise. Only answer what is asked, no more no less. No unnecessary information. Have your husband go over the information he used on forms and in evidence such as birth places, work history, education, number/nature of visits with each other etc. And of course, be polite and pleasant. Good luck :)

Hi For question #1, I would think since your husband is coming to US primarily to start a life with you, so he should emphasize on that and of course work is important too, he can say that he will look for work as well.
