T1E home office visit questions

T1E续签刚面谈完,给大家个福利,问题基本都包括在以下,只要认真准备,不会有什么问题。面谈大概50个问题,持续时间2-3小时。你谈的简单就时间短,你自己谈的多就时间长。home offcie的雇员没有一点为难你或者故意跟你过不去的意思,只是问问题,她/他记录你的回答。9月份开始,面试不再是去面试中心,而是到你的办公地点来跟你面对面面谈。

这个问题不是我自己整理的,也是在英文移民论坛上copy来的,我面谈就是根据这个准备的。我的面谈基本就是这些问题再加上两个home offcie根据我的case另外提出的两个问题,都是很简单的需要澄清的问题。所以这些问题就是他们的标准问题,可能对每个人都是一样的。

还有一点要补充的,这个来visit你的office的通知给你的准备时间特别短,我的时间连接电话那天算只有三天,准备所有的材料时间非常紧张,几乎不吃不睡地准备了三天。为了支持这些问题,你还得提交相关材料证明你的答案。

请问大概是在签证到期之前多久接到的电话呢?

不是在签证到期前,是你递交了续签申请后,等待出结果期间,可能会被面谈。申请续签要好几个月,在这期间签证早就过期了。

我觉得这样上门比较好,至少不用停止营业一天。

面试3小时加上前后准备,至少半天就没了。面试完都累死了,跟停止营业也没啥区别了。
楼主什么时候递交的的?等多久才有消息?

真是越来越严拉, 之前基本都不用面试的 {:5_129:}

楼主啥时候递签的呢?我6月底面试到现在还没有消息。去年12月份递签的

我4月初递交的,已经5个多月了。

被面谈的几率是多大呢? 不知道我们只有虚拟办公室的怎么办

感谢楼主!!

你递交的材料公司地址在哪里,就跟你在哪里面谈。虚拟办公室,可以在你挂靠的公司租会议室面谈,只要面谈时说明这个就行了。

天哪,幸好我没被抽中面谈啊。就我这听力水平,你列的那些个问题,我不傻眼了啊~~ohmygosh

请问大家一般在签证过期先申请续签呢?什么是bank signatory? UK bank statement 可以吗?

学习了。

楼主现在续签下来了吗?又两个多月过去了哦。。。。祝您好运1
