Skype Interview scheduled with the Italian consulate in Bangalore

Skype Interview scheduled with the Italian consulate in Bangalore - People on a Video Call

My husband and I are travelling via a tour operator to Italy, Austria, France and Switzerland. We will be extending our trip for 3 days after to visit Amsterdam. The train tickets, hotel bookings etc. for this leg were also provided.

We both work and have tax returns etc. in place. We both also have valid US visas (tourist, not sure if this helps but we were asked to provide the photocopy at VFS).

I submitted all my documents at VFS and when I checked my status I see we have been called for a Skype interview on the 4th of April. My travel is on the 24th of April 2017.

What can I expect at the Skype interview and what kind of additional documents should we take (since every conceivable thing was already submitted!)? Would marriage certificate, child's birth certificate help? (We aren't taking our daughter along on this trip.)



Best Answer

This interview is more likely to ascertain your motives for the journey and to be satisfied that you will return after your tour.

Surely if it is Skype interview you are doing it from your home and don't need to take any additional documents as mentioned or are we missing something here?
