Proper Attire During Embassy Interviews

[froshie1]

Balita ko maluwag daw these days, yung friend ko nag apply last week approved buong pamilya 10 years multiple entry. Yung mga kasabayan daw nila halos lahat approved. Gusto ko na sana mag apply kaso walang plano gamitin pa in the near future, pag ganun daw na di mo ginamit di na daw mabibigyan uli. Tama ba?

hindi totoo iyon. ang yari kapagnabigyan tapos nag TNT.

just look presentable.

yung iba kasi OA.

Sinabi mo, he he he. When my brod-in-law (a seaman), applied for a US visa, may nakasabay daw syang lalaki na naka kontondo business suit tas may leather briefcase....tas may dalang maliit na American flag.

Ayun, denied daw. :lol:

Your get up during interview is an added factor, ang mas importante lng you are presentable.

I am currently working in a consultancy firm that handles immigration application we don't advise our clients to overdress themselves smart casual may do, of course with our assistance documentation is no longer a problem we make sure that all requirements are complied. Just make sure you are prepared for the interview coz with proper and complete documents simple question lng ask nila like sa client ko n embalmer to think wala xang formal education binigyan xa ng consideration ng consul at ang tanong lng sa kanya eh what else will you do in Canada...

Your coconut shell is what matters most, just be smart enough to answer concerns of the visa officer but don't outsmart them ehehehe baka mayabangan sau denied k na. Basta confident ka sa pagsagot ng question khit minsan may.... sa docs mo eheheh maipapasa mo ang interview.

* hotchilly, what do you exactly do to help yun mga applicants? kasi personally for me hinde na kailangan ng mga "consultancy" parang dagdag lang sa gastos yan eh, yun mga papers din naman sa applicant mangagaling diba?

Attire matters, but it's not the whole ballgame.

What matters more is showing/convincing them that you're going back to the Philippines, IOW, hindi ka magti-TNT. On the US embassy website, there are a lot of good tips there, but with the usual disclaimer that even if you follow all of them to the letter, hindi pa rin kasiguruhan na mapagbibigyan ka.

presentable is the key word, don't over dress/under dress....

[mhelskie]

got my visa last April, pati wifey and lil bro nya nabigyan...basta presentable(polo and slacks, etc) kayo and you're honest with your answers. Syempre dapat may pang back up din kayo sa mga sagot nyo(papeles, marriage contract, employment cert, titles ng mga ari-arian/business, etc). In our case, we're prepared to show proof kung manghihingi ung consul, pero 5 questions lang tinanong sa akin, approved na ako, damay wifey ko sa approval ehehe, d na sya tinanong, naka tanghod lang sya sa window habang magkausap kami ng consul

Just a quick question, how long are you allowed to stay in the us if you are granted a visiting/tourist visa?

maximum of 6 months but it could be less depende sa ibibigay ng immigration officer sa point of entry mo....

saka pala pag mga first timer and mga single entry lang ang visa na nakuha dito meron palang annotation sa visa mo, kung ilan months ka pwede mag stay..so kung naka annotate sa visa mo 1 month max stay eh di 1 month ka lang pwede....
