Ghana is a very tough embassy. Make sure you have all your ducks in a row, and lots of proof of a genuine relationship. Go over any and all questions with your fiancé of things you can be asked at the interview. Good luck!

My fiancee case is currently in Ghana and ready for interview,any useful tips?

The best thing you can do at this point is have your fiancée look over everything you sent to the government. Ghana is an extremely tough embassy. There are some standard questions they might ask your fiancée, but most will likely come from the evidence you've submitted. Make sure you know about everything they have been given. Also read through the Consulate Reviews for Ghana on this site. Every case is different. But the reviews here will give you some insight into other's experience.

Good luck!
