Things we should talk about this weekend before the big day

[Nywoek 175]

We have our AOS interview scheduled on monday. We printed all the papers, made copies of every important (and not-so important) document and organized them into folders so that we can pull whatever we are asked for.

 

3 more nights though, how should we prepare, what sort of questions should we ask each other, and does anyone have any advice for us? 😃

My biggest bit of advice would be to not overthink it, and don’t stress. Your relationship is legit, so all you need to do is be respectful and polite, make sure you take everything required (sounds like you’ve already got that covered) and just answer any questions honestly - definitely don’t practice questions as it’ll sound staged! 
 

Good luck.

One piece of advice we got from an immigration attorney was to have me read the Yes/No Questions from the "General Eligibility & Inadmissibility" section out loud to Jaycel and have her answer them. He said that, especially to a non-native English speaker, it is one thing to read them to yourself and answer them in your head but it's very different to listen to them without the print in front of you, interpret them and then answer them correctly. Jaycel said this was one of the most helpful parts of the prep that we did. Especially since our IO asked like 20 or so of those questions  You guys will do great... like @appleblossom said, don't overthink it.

Thanks guys! 

 

Now I’m worried about the weather; there seems to be snow coming down all day monday and I have no idea if they will cancel or what happens if they do (do they call you?), and how long we have to wait before they reschedule. >_<

Surely people in New Hampshire aren't scared by a little snow.  Even the government employees.  And I'm confident the Norwegian can handle it fine too, maybe even enjoy it.

Judging by the amount of snow days my kids have had, they like to close things. 🙈

 

And I am not the problem, I have never had a snow day in my life, and the one I remember for my kids was because of hurricane winds + snow (they walked to school, lol).

 

But we’ll see. We’ll just get ready tomorrow and hope for the best.

I didn't check my email earlier, but they sent a notice at 3.30 that they were closing the offices that day, and then half an hour later that they cancelled the interview. 

 

Oh. Well.

 

I mean... this is much better than getting in a car crash due to a blizzard. Lol.

 

Because while I am no stranger to driving (or riding a car.. I do not drive lol) in snow, I am from so far up north that after october you get a ticket if you do not have winter tires on your car and that is definitely not the same here. XD No one has that, they just stay home until the roads are clear. XD

You need to move someplace where snow is an anomaly, N ma'am.

 

Your interview has been canceled, so you'll have time on your hands to do some educational reading:

I have read that one, it’s so funny. 🙈🙈😂

 

Got an email this morning. They scheduled a new appointment for april 6th. Almost a month and a half later. Damn blizzard. 😕 

 

I was really hoping to sort out summer tickets soon.
