DV 2015 Oceania winners

Fiji interviewers are quite , what's the right word to use here, "tough", they will ask at lease 1 of this questions. Sorry mom and Em.
 
No Mom, I don't think its relevant to Kiwi's or Australians but some of the Fiji selectees are put through these questions, I got this list from a friend in Fiji.

Did the friend go through a DV based CP? What Em and I are trying to pass across is that they relate more to someone attending a marriage based GC interview, and it's not limited to Fiji people or those interviewing in Fiji alone as a matter of fact.

The CO also can ask questions relating to sleeping habits, underwear and clothing preference. Be prepared for any personal or private questions in addition to these.

Sorry for the lengthy post, I had this some where, in my dv 2016 file, thought I'd share, I was very prepared if we were selected but if it could help someone, my pleasure. my time will come as well. God Bless and all the best for the interview.

This is very obviously a set of questions aimed at determining if a marriage is genuine. So I can see some of them might be asked in the case of someone who got married after selection, but considering most DV interviews are 2-5 minutes this is clearly not a DV list and no reason to ask them for anyone who didn't get married after selection.

Exactly!
 
Busted! You can't dupe the experts on here. I was thinking it was interesting that someone who has not been through the process seems to be such an 'expert'. I can understand wanting to feel helpful, but giving misleading information isn't at all helpful and can be very counter-productive to the people actually going through the process.
 
Damm that list had me worried. I said to the mrs we better prepare. An Indian and kiwi couple are sure to raise suspicion lol.
All of a sudden I started asking her what day does the rubbish get picked up ? She thought I woke up on the wrong side of the bed .....
 
If it helps, we were asked the following:

a) Why do you want to move to America (question to my husband, the principal)
b) So you have changed your name? (question to me).

That was it.
