English or Spanish?

[Cholito 0]

Hello,

My wife and I are here in Lima, Peru and we have our interview very soon. My wife speaks Spanish and English. We had heard that they give you an option to have the interview in English or spanish. Is this true? Please let us know.

Thanks!

Yes, what you heard is true. We kind of spoke Spanglish during ours. They were very accommodating about this and they asked what we preferred right at the outset.

Most likely you will be asked to enter into the small room, so you can both speak with the consul. The order is irrelevant, maybe some questions will be asked to you and some to her, but there's no such thing as an specific order. The time I was there, some couples were too, and they just have more like a conversation, rather than a predefined list of questions

The Embassy will want to make sure you two can communicate so if the USC does not speak Spanish, they will ask some questions to the foreigner in English to test her language skills.

I received my K-1 visa in Peru 10 years ago. I went to the interview by myself. The consul was talking to me in Spanish and then switched to English without warning. He asked questions in English and I answered them in the same language. I had previously stated that my fiance did not speak Spanish so I think it was his way of verifying that we could indeed communicate.

Thank you so much for your help. When we are approved I will stay on this site and help people like you are helping us.
