Hello All,

 

I have prepared these questions to help my friend who had a successful interview at Canadian Consulate [High Commission] in India. I am putting these questions on Internet to help other people as well. Please feel free to copy and try to answer the following questions, as they will help you feel comfortable [easy] during an interview. Please make sure to get all the answers from your spouse in Canada [and make sure both of you have the same answers to all the questions]. I know there are many scumbags [travel agents, etc] who will try to tell you to lie and will tell you various wrong questions. Well, it might not get you through an interview. I strongly advise you to get as many questions from other sources and make sure you answer all the questions.

 

Disclaimer: Please use the following questions at you own risk. I assume no guarantee, stated or implied, that you will get through an interview successfully. The questions are to be used as a guideline only and please use common sense while answering the questions. Canadian consulate is only trying to see if the relationship is genuine.  © Copyright 2004 Jessie Gill, copying and further publishing without author’s consent will result in severe penalties according the international law.
