Asylum Interview Experience
I think it will be different with each people. In my case, all three times were different.
The officer usually did a small talk with me while going to the room from the hall asking me about the weather and other information which was not listed in application from my previous state where I lived and how I liked it here. IMO, I took that in good and bad way. Good way in the sense, that he wanted me to feel comfortable and bad way, like as if he is saying, I already know everything about you. So, its a mixed bag.
To start with Rajiv is a great guy. I had talked to our corporate lawyers on bringing my wife back with me to the US as the spouse of an American citizen... The options given to me were vague that I was considering declining the job and staying out the US. Rajiv looked at my case, understood our need not to separated and gave me advice on how to tackle the matter. Though the information on the options was still the same, he has an amazing way of explaining the options in ways you can understand and act on. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an immigration visa.
