    Your channel is so underrated. Apoorva's videos were my first choice when I was doing the visa application. Her videos made me think how easy it is and I did it all by myself. You explain everything clear and short. I watched all your videos and also shared to my friends who were also filing for Visa. I wanted to say thank you so much as you made it so much easier for me and Thank God I finally got my visa. I always suggest your channel ro everyone who wants to file F1 visa application.
    Thanks for putting so much effort and posting contents constantly❤

      Hi, please tell me if I made a mistake in my DS form. As there was a question have you ever been refused a US visa? Nd my answer is there, yes. But I don't know the exact reason why I was previously denied an F1 visa.👈 That's it.
      So, My question is here, (((Although I was rejected under section 214(b), but I didn't mention it there. Now am confused that I should have written this in the given description as a reason. Please tell me what I have to do next or it is okay ??

    Hi! Thanks for sharing the tips! I need help filing DS 160 for B2 visa. I have a name change case. New passport has both surname and given name. However old passport only has given name and surname is empty. In this case, how to answer the question 'Other Surname Used'?
    For example in old passport, Given Name: Shalini Lal, Surname: Empty.
    New Passport - Given Name: Shalini, Surname: Sharma.
    Instructions for 'Other Surname Used' section on DS 160 is "If you only have other surnames to enter, enter the same given names as above. Conversely, if you only have other given names to enter, enter the same surname as above."

    I am confused on two question. Who will be paying for my US trip? I have a funded PhD position as I was awarded a TA contract from the University. But neither in my bank nor of my parents are enough funds to support my trip i.e. VISA/SEVIS/Ticket charges. There is a charitable trust which will be taking help from various sources to get me travel grant. So, I am uncertain whether I should makr other or self? I have read somewhere that if one mentions other, then they should be ready for extra questions in the interview or with some document proof. What could be they, please suggest! And if I mention self, my bank statement should have that much amount maintained last six months, right?
    Second question, what should I mention in my Present occupation? My PhD start date is sept 7, and TA start date is Aug, 29 but currently I am enrolled in a distance learning diploma program which will finish by April 2023. So, should I mention student? And in duties space, can I mention that ' I have to go through the study material provided and submit assignments online'?

    I have electronically signed and submitted my ds-160 form and it was showing that I cannot make changes to my application but before clicking the last confirmation there was a session timeout and the next time I tried to login by retrieving my application it was showing my confirmation page with the unique barcode. Do I need to fill a new application again or my information has already been successfully submitted
    Thank you.
