It's 2025, the year you finally want to take your japa dreams seriously. You're finally doing everything correctly, so you've been invited for your visa interview.
We know that this closeness to your dream can make you panicky. Unfortunately, many people will still fail the process because of simple mistakes they make during the interview.

1. Learn English Language
Anticipate that all or most of the interview will be in English. If you're not fluent, now is the time to find a solution. You can be disqualified solely because you're not fluent enough, especially if you're applying for a study visa.
2. Speak for yourself
Avoid the urge to bring your family member or friend to the interview. The interviewers want to talk to you, not someone else. You don't want to create a negative impression by bringing your parents or someone else to speak for you.
3. Be as concise as possible
Most embassies receive tons of applications yearly, putting consular officers under pressure to conduct quick but efficient interviews. Consider the first few minutes of your communication the time to make an impression. So, you want to get going from the start, including cutting off unnecessary facts and discussions during the interview.

4. Supplementary documents
Bring every document that will help your case. The consular officer may ask for additional documents at any time, so you should be ready with every document you can. Remember that you'll have just 2-3 minutes of interview time, and you don't want to waste it running up and down for a document.
5. Maintain a positive attitude
Avoid any kind of argument with the consular officer. Even if you're denied a visa, maintain a positive attitude and simply ask the officer for recommendations on the documents you can bring to overcome the refusal. This way, you can determine why you were rejected for future purposes.
6. Dress impeccably and project confidence
Remember that you'll be addressed the way you dress. First impression matters, and how you present yourself makes the difference. Wear a clean and well-ironed professional outfit. Speak as clearly as possible, and don't forget to smile and project a positive demeanor throughout the process.
