credibility interview at the visa application centre when you go to
submit your application and biometric information. The interview
will focus on your reasons for coming to the UK. A report of the
interview will be sent to the visa officer who will consider it
alongside your visa application and supporting documents. You
may be called for a further interview if the visa officer needs more
information.
