House Biatch Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 2 minutes ago, Mazen said: I'm having the same situation. I will be conducting the interview on the same day as my wife, but we are going to have two different times. We both applied at the same time and received the invitation letter on the same date. However, She will start the interview at 8:30 am and, I will start at 9:00 am. Thats not too bad. In my case, my wife has hers on the Thursday qt 9.45am and I have mine on the Friday at 8am. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it normal for my wife and I have interviews on 2 different days, she's on the Thursday and I'm on the Friday? We applied at the same time through her IMMI account and I just assumed that we would go to the interview at the same time.

Actually I just found out that I need to take the original birth certificate with me and I don´t have it here with me It is probably going to take ages for my mum to post it for me so I assume I wont be taking the test next week - can´t believe that!

Now-a-days due to covid, they aren't asking for or checking any original documents except the ID card (Passport/drivers license) at the test/interview. Atleast this is what has been the case for me and for many others I've known. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
