Credibility Assessment Guide

 

When you register with 51黑料社区, we will store a copy of your credibility interview, assessment form and self-recorded video and may refer back to it in the future in order to ensure that your post-registration arrangements (such as your term-time living arrangements) are consistent with your pre-registration plans.

Credibility Interview FAQs

  1. My booking form will not submit, what do I do?

    Ensure all questions have been answered, the form cannot be submitted unless all questions have been completed.

  2. My booking has been cancelled, why is this?

    If your booking is cancelled you will receive an email confirmation to the email address you used to make the booking. Please read this email as it will have the reason for cancellation noted there and instruction for any further action.

  3. I can no longer attend my scheduled booking, what do I do?

    If you can no longer attend your appointment, you must cancel this on the bookings site. You can do this by following the 鈥榬eschedule鈥� link on your confirmation email which you received when you made your booking. You can either cancel the booking entirely or select reschedule and confirm a new date and time. Do not create another booking until you have cancelled the one you can no longer attend.

  4. I do not have my passport with me, can I still attend the interview?

    No, you cannot attend your credibility interview unless you have your original documentation with you. If you do not have your passport, you must reschedule your appointment for a time and date that you will have the document with you.

  5. I do not have a Skype account, can I still make a booking?

    You will need to create a Skype account before you can make a booking, this is because we require your unique Skype ID in order to create the booking. Please enter this detail carefully and properly on the booking form as this is what will be used to contact you on the day of your interview. If you do not enter this correctly, we will be un able to take your interview.

  6. I need help removing the background effect on Skype?

    You may find the 鈥榖lur鈥� effect is automatically turned on in your Skype settings. This must be removed in order to conduct your interview. To remove the blur or any other effects, go to your Skype settings and under the 'Audio & Video' section you will need to select 鈥榥one鈥� on the 'Choose background effect' section. If you are unsure on how to do this please use Google to search for instruction.

    In the first instance please check with your agent, the booking link is often sent to them. If both you and your agent have not received this then please ask your agent to contact their regional representative to request this. Please also check your spam/junk folder.

    Your outcome will be sent within 5 working days from the date of your interview (not including weekends or UK bank holidays). If after this time you have not received your email please contact your agent as your result may have been sent there.
