Not having a girlfriend or any female friend is okay in inter life to get a greencard?

Powered by Froala Editor

It is completely okay. The D.P will ask why and you should prepare an answer for that. With this question the D.P just wants to see how confident you are in the decisions you make in your life and before your University life is very common to not have any female friend or Girlfriend.

What if I gave you 5 lakh tk?

Powered by Froala Editor

Sir, I would look for opportunities to invest this money into and save it for future purposes. 

Try to be honest and confident about your answer. Actually explain how you would use the money.

How should I interact with DP, should I also greet him on my welcoming as he does?

Check whether the door says ‘Push’ or ‘Pull’. If there is nothing written then knock on the door and wait for permission. Before entering, give Salam and ask if you may go in. Once you’re inside, stand straight beside the chair and when provided permission, sit down without making any sound. Your footsteps must also make minimal sound or no sound if possible.


He may welcome you by saying Hello Amzad. I hope you are having a great time at ISSB. Your reply should be“Yes sir I’m enjoying being here with my beloved team members, hope you’re also having a great time.”

Afterwards continue the conversation in a sober manner. It is very important to note that you must maintain proper eye contact at all times.

Suppose DP has given me money, should I reply like “No sir, I won’t take the money, as it is not mine”? Will this kind of reply at the initial asking prove my immaturity to avoid reality? How should I respond in each given imaginary situation?

Powered by Froala Editor

If D.P is offering you money then simply say, “No sir, I do not want the money.” Take the money if and only if the D.P says that it is an order. money source, valid or order if order then I must take this money।

You should handle the situation by your own sense of humor. Act like a mature person. Act based upon reality.

How to introduce my family?

Powered by Froala Editor

Start with your father. Explain his profession(where he works, his rank/designation, what he does) and then do the same for your mother.

Then mention your siblings.

Is there anything we need to update?

Powered by Froala Editor

No sir, I personally have found everything to be satisfactory.

Asking the same related questions about porn to DP, will it prove me as characterless?

Powered by Froala Editor

Avoid asking the D.P any questions. But whatever the D.P asks, answering honestly will not hamper your image. 

Watching porn is a very common phenomenon among the young. They ask this question to check how aware you are about your desires and how you deal in life with such desires.

Do DP or ISSB assessors check my Facebook profile?

Powered by Froala Editor

They may or may not. It is a 50/50 event.

Powered by Froala Editor

What if he feels I’m showing a guarded response?

Powered by Froala Editor

If D.P feels so, he usually will just note it down and not mention it to you. In case he does mention it, it means that he is granting you a second chance to be genuine. 

You should note that, if you are confident with your answer then it is not possible to detect guarded responses. What happen is sometimes candidate become too nervous and don't share even asked relevant questions which creates a awkward situation. and you're not letting know your DP about your situations. Then your viva may become short with DP.

If I have any year gap in school, college, or university, how should I deal with it with him?

Powered by Froala Editor

You will have to mention this in your biodata. Answer only what you write in your biodata.

Powered by Froala Editor

Will he ask the maximum questions from Biodata?

Powered by Froala Editor

Yes, maximum questions will come from your biodata. It is highly recommended that you memorize every information you give in your biodata. Again, I repeat don't miss any information to memories written in Biodata.

Will DP judge me from another point of view as a university student?

Powered by Froala Editor

As a university student, D.P might expect more maturity and excellence from you compared to a college student.

What was today's dinner/lunch menu?

Powered by Froala Editor

Say whatever you ate before you came into the viva room. so remember what today's menu was,at least the name of fish you ate Telapia or Rui.

What is a guarded response?

Powered by Froala Editor

A guarded response is when you withhold providing extended information in case of topics you do not want the conversation to trail to. Such as, if the D.P asks, “Do you have a girlfriend/boyfriend?” With this, a simple yes or no will do as an answer. There is no need to give any further information unless the D.P specifically asks you to. If the D.P asks, “How intimate were you with your girlfriend/boyfriend?” It is best to respond that you only held hands and sometimes would kiss. Even if you have an extended history, it should be avoided. Or if the D.P asks “When do you smoke?”. You should reply simply by stating that you smoke occasionally when you are out with friends. There is no need to provide any excess information other than that.

Remember, you will always be speaking truthfully, but in certain cases when you know your response might show a sign of severe misconduct, it is advised to withhold information.

Why does he ask about my WAT test and some other tasks? Does he study my performance from GTO notes before my arrival to DP sir's room for viva?

Powered by Froala Editor

Yes. The D.P will study your ISSB performance before you enter the Viva room.

Powered by Froala Editor

Which things are highly negative, and revealing these pieces of information may harm my personality?

The following may serve as damaging information to your character:

Substance abuse.

Sensitive information regarding your sex life.

Procrastination.

Genuinely, if I start to share my family issue or personal life issue, how can a green card save me from such a situation? In the end of the conversation, will he get convinced or will this show me as needy and unprofessional?

Powered by Froala Editor

Do not share any such information unless you are asked to. Even when you are asked, answer in a way so that it doesn’t show that you are desperate for the green card. 

Have a hopeful vibe to your response such as, what we are going through is tough but we shall overcome this in sha Allah.

Mention a story you remember from your childhood.But obviously please make sure you are a good story teller about yourself at least. This question has wide scope to share about you, This is an open ended question which has maximum privilege to share about your thoughts. 


Also remember, you are having a conversation and you may speak freely about your experiences in life. Be proud of your family and be grateful for the circumstances you grew up with.
