[speaker001:] can I see your passport, please?
[speaker002:] is this line for non-residents?
[speaker001:] yes it is. Residents can queen up in the lines to my right.
[speaker002:] Ok. Here's my passport.
[speaker001:] what's the expiration date on your passport?
[speaker002:] I think it's soon, maybe in a few months. It was renewed in Beijing, so the new expiry date is on the last page.
[speaker001:] I see. Yes, you'll need to renew your passport in a few months. Make sure you don't let it expire while you are in the UK.
[speaker002:] I won't.
[speaker001:] do you have anything to declare?
[speaker002:] no, I don't have anything to declare.
[speaker001:] how long will you be staying in the UK?
[speaker002:] I'll be here for about a year.
[speaker001:] what is the purpose of your stay?
[speaker002:] I'll be studying. I'm doing an MBA at Nottingham University.
[speaker001:] where will you be staying?
[speaker002:] I have a housing contract with the university. I'll be in a dorm room on campus.
[speaker001:] how do you plan on paying for your living costs and tuition fees while you are here?
[speaker002:] my father has already paid for that in advance. Here are the receipts.
[speaker001:] ok. Have a good day. Here's your passport and documents back.
[speaker002:] thank you very much.
