ROC interview

[Angela. 0]

We had our interview today.

Our appointment was for 10:15, we got there around 9:50ish and got called in within 5 minutes. The interview lasted about 20 minutes. The person just went through our papers we have sent asking if we had the same address, worked at the same place, etc... just making sure it was up to date. These are the questions she asked

How did you meet?

Do you have any kids?

Is this your first marriage?
Is this the only place you worked at since you've been married? -to me
Asked me how my parents felt about me marrying someone from another country
Asked us when our days off from work are, what times do we work

Asked what we do together
Asked about sharing bank accounts, credit cards, etc..
Asked about health insurance

Asked why he chose to leave Canada instead of me leaving the US

Can't really remember all of the quesions, but it was simpe things like that. Basically just asking for what we already filled out when we applied. We had everything she asked for, only problem is she asked twice for pictures with my family and we didn't have any new ones to give. We aren't really picture people. She said she will make her decision about whether or not we will need to give more information or if we are approved. She said we will know by mail and they don't do it online anymore. She did ask for his two passport photos "just in case" as we were about to leave, so hopefully that is a good sign...I really hope us not having anymore pictures wont be the only reason we get an RFE, other than that the interview went well and other than pictures we weren't missing anthing she needed. We filed in Februaury, I can't believe it has taken this long, hopefully this will be it.

We were pretty nervous going in, but if you are truthful and have nothing to hide it is a really simple interview.

It seems like a pretty standard interview, not a stokes type. Thank you for the update! Hoping you get some good news soon

I think I would rather have a stokes interview than to be asked for more information/pictures that I don't have!

The few interview reviews that I have read on here, most of the officers tell them if they are approved after the interview...hopefully every officer does things differently.

Sometimes it's not approved immediately because you got a newer officer that doesn't have the authority yet and needs to clear it with their supervisor. I wouldn't worry

Thanks for posting this interview review.

Question for you… Did the officer have all the evidence you sent in with your ROC? Or did you need to re-print everything to bring to the interview?

Hoping the best for your results!

She had everything we have ever sent since we first started our K1 in 2010.

I printed out everthing we sent in before. Technically she only asked for our 2012 taxes (I sent those in, not sure why she needed another copy) and she asked for pictures. As she was asking if we had health insurance, etc I just handed her the papers I brought, but she didn't directy ask for them.

What is a stokes interview?

What is a stokes interview?

It's when they separate you from your spouse, ask you both questions and then compare your answers to see if one or both of you are lying.

My case has been moved to the local office and they will determine whether or not an interview is needed. wish me luck. Hoping to skip the whole interview process. Anyone been cleared from the local office without interview?

You should expect an interview, all transfers to local office results in interviews. They are just waiting for an opening interview schedule for you. Good luck.
