I have my hearing scheduled in 7 days through Microsoft Teams. I was initially under the less complex category but then changed to regular hearing.
To those who have already been through their hearings, can you please tell me the basic questions that are asked? Do we have to tell the whole story first or do they ask questions based on BOC? Is having a translator better? Any tips would be appreciated

Use to be the case 5+ yrs ago. The wait times have decreased in general because many were waiting 2+ years for hearings. Given the large volume of asylum claimants in the past year there will likely be increased wait periods to get a hearing. Whether you qualify for a short hearing or not will influence the wait. If regular hearing could be waiting 6 months to 2 years. Dependent on many things plus some luck. There is an attempt to process applications faster especially those who are very likely to be approved. This is a slow process and many get denied and attempt to appeal, the file JR and the attempt an H&C application. There is a lot of incorrect information saying you can be reunited with spouses and dependent children quickly but many are separated for 5+ years.

I did mine on October 5th and i got positive decision on the table.
Basically
1) composure is important. Be calm and don't stress
2) know your story , know your dates . So review your narratives for sure
3) I would suggest download the national package for your country and review it , it helps
4) and lastlty be honest. Honesty goes along away.

Mine lasted 2 hours exactly and my whole procces took exactly 12 months, usually its 2 years wait but for me it was pretty fast luckily.
