Hi everyone,
This is my first post so I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right place. My partner and I are due to have our marriage interview. I'm EU and he's non-EU. I know that we have nothing to worry about since our relationship is genuine but we're kind of nervous for some reason and have no idea what to expect. Anyone been through the marriage interview? What questions do they ask? How long does the interview last for? When do you hear back about the outcome.
I would appreciate any help. Thank you!

Hi, your interview must be done now but I'm answering to help the next people who will need this information.
My boyfriend is non-EU (asylum seeker) and I'm EU. We first went to the office to register, at this moment they gave us the date for two appointments and for the date of the marriage. We had a first appointment just to drop all the papers they ask for. The second one was for the interview because they wanted to check if it was not a fake marriage. The interview was separated.
The questions :
- The language both of you speak, your common language
- How, when and where did you meet, when did your relationship get serious.
- If you are paid by someone to get married, money or payment between the couple or by a third partie.
- Questions about your family and the family of your partner (do you have any brother or sister, where they live, same for your parents)
- Do you live together, is it a flat or a house, how many bedrooms there are, do you have flatmate
- What are your hobbies together, what activities do you share
- If you already traveled together somewhere
- Do you have several nationalities, if you are entitled to live in other countries.
- They also asked me why the marriage do not take place in my country (EU country)
- What is the situation of your partner if he is non-EU, with which type of visa and when did he arrived in Ireland. When did he ask for the asylum
We hope our information can help few of you !
After we both did this interview the man, asked us to wait. They gave us an answer after 10/15 min waiting and explained us how the marriage will take place and what we will need to do.
