OR interview

PHM12

Hi there.

My interview date is in a couple of weeks. Does anyone please have any advice on what to expect?

Thanks

As long you are honest and don't hide anything from them (not saying you will) its nothing to worry about.

Have you been asked to send your statements to the OR yet, it might help speed things along if you have everything ready like bank statements, loan agreements and your SOA.

When I had mine the OR was finished with her enquiries in 30 minutes but I ended up asking questions for another 15 which eased my mind:)

Hi, if you've been sent a booklet to fill out, please fill this in before you get to the office-it saves so much time. If you have not been sent a booklet, just bring whatever you were told to bring with you, if anything. Please don't worry. If you have any questions ahead of your interview, give your case officer or examiner a ring and they will help you.

Hi,

Thank you for your reassurance and advice...much appreciated.

My interview was much easier than expected. I was a nervous wreck before, but there was no need for it. My or was really nice and understanding. If I couldn't answer something straight away he was very patient. As was mentioned before, just be honest with the or. I hope it goes alright for you and try not to worry!

they "could" go back as far as they like..but usually 2yrs or so

dont worry if you've any paperwork missing they can get whats needed themselves if they want

oh ok, not sure how many I've got. I can't afford to photo copy them all, would they return any I send them? Actually I guess they may as well keep them! Do they want all statements for 2 years, bank accounts, credit cards etc.? I might need a man and van
(exaggeration there in case anyone is worried!)

Ha Ha Ha PippaGirl......I know what you mean though I had been doing online paperless banking for a while now, and so dont have any statements...plus my online banking facility has been suspended, so I can't access them either! I guess it's like most things...we fear the unknown. Once it has happened, I will prob wonder why I was so worried.
