Visa approved! Sydney

[sunpup 0]

Had our interview today and were approved! In Sydney we had to send in all our docs ahead of time and everything looked ok so we were scheduled an interview. The documents were all in order and checked off at one window. We had to pay the $480 AUD at another window and then wait to be called to a third window for the interview. We were both asked questions about how we met and the specific dates. They asked what happened after we met, how we stayed in contact. They asked when and where we got married, if our parents had met each other. I was asked what my husbands job was like. He was asked if I had gone to university and where. I was asked when I arrived in Australia and how long I had been living here. My husband has also lived in the UK and the Netherlands and they asked about the dates he was there.

We were surprised to be asked so many questions as we have been married now for almost 4 years and have been living together in Australia for over 3 years. I am the USC and have permanent residency in Australia. The three other couples that were ahead of us all seemed to be getting lots of questions as well.

Good luck everyone! I hope sharing our experience helps.

Congrats ... thank you for sharing. I am stressing. I have read of interviews in Sydney that are really easy. Maybe it's the CR1's that get grilled!! So, I am glad I came across this. Best of luck with the next phase of your journey ...
