    @virjmm25 Saan ka ng lodge ng application mo? Sa case namen ng hubby ko, ako ang sponsor. Sa SG sya ng lodge ng application since don kme pareho ngwowork that time. Walang interviews na ginawa. Ngsubmit lng kme ng requirements as per checklist. After 6 months, naapprove na partner visa nya.

    My name,date of birth?
    Husbands name,date of birth?
    Does he has any brothers or sisters?
    What he is doing for living,what kind of job?
    When and were we met?
    How our relationship begin?
    Why we decided to get married?
    What will I do when I come to Australia?
    Who is supporting me now?
    How many times were I in Australia?
    Have I met my husbands relatives?
    How we are in contact,now when we are apart from each other?

    The questions basically covered everything in the initial forms (40sp and 47sp)

    Where did you meet?
    What do you do now?
    What are your plans for when you are in Australia?
    When are you intending on moving to Australia?
    Does your sponsor live with you now?
    What will you do for work once in Australia?
    What are the daily duties within your household?
    Who contributes to the daily spendings?

    Basic identifying questions (my name, my defacto's name, date of birth, about his family, where he is employed, etc)
    Where we met
    How long we had been living together
    When did our relationship start
    What i intend to do for work once i get to Australia
    If we had any major purchases together
    Why do i think this is a "spouse like" relationship (its a lot harder to answer than you would think, especially when your on the spot like that!)
    What did i think would happen if my visa got refused

    Ahh so verification lang ng mga information na sinulat mo sa forms lang yung interview? Gaano katagal pala po ang interview?

    I could not tell you if the interview is only verification of what is written in your application, only that the info above came from a previous online forum called philippines.com.au, which from my hazy memory you were a member of LokiJr? However, from the questions my wife and another forumer wrote I would suggest you may be correct. The top part I saved from a reply my wife gave to another forumer on fiancee visa, the second part under "The questions basically covered everything in the initial forms (40sp and 47sp)" was from another forumer whose name escapes me. I just cut and pasted both replies into a word document and saved it.
    I couldn't tell you the length of the interview but can say my wifes interview back in 2004 took 1/2 hour. So I would suggest up to one hour.
    I cut and pasted your questions into google translate, alas after first meeting my wife in 2002 and very spasmodic attempts to learn Pilipino I still have made very little progress :)
