Hi Mendy. Hope ur doing great. Please wanted to know if it's ok telling the VO my life story and pleading for his/her trust before the interview begins?
Good evening sir, thank you for this great video. I have 3 visa rejected from the US ambassy in Guinea. In this case, could you give me some advices what should I do next time to get my visa approve.
What is the best date to schedule a visa appointment after they recieve their I-20 or DS 2019? I have heard that scheduling a visa appointment too early from the earliest date of admission may cause the officer to refuse the visa. Am I right?
From USCIS: New Students - Student (F and M) visas for new students can be issued up to 120 days in advance of the start date for a course of study. However, you will not be allowed to enter the United States on your student visa more than 30 days before the start date.
Hi Sir I have a complicated question if a student secured his or her admission in low cost university or in community college why the visa officer refused the visa
Hi there I have question??? I’m 25 years and I’m going for bachelor degree is a 7 years gape a red flag and how how can I overcome it during my interview
All depends if you can properly explain the reasons for the gap in a way that makes sense. It will be a concern for the visa officer. Non-traditional students stand out.
I don't think so, every visa interview is taken case by case. There might be different questions for different types of visa. Watch our other videos where we discuss J1 visa.
Thank you for such an amazing video. I wanted to know if we are taking a student loan (as most indian students do) why it will have a negative impact and how to nullify that ? And do we have to show 1.5 times the fee for the whole 2 years or just 1 year fee mentioned on our I-20 ?
Hi, thanks for the informative video. I have a question regarding the prior refusal part. If an applicant is refused a tourist visa a few years ago on the first try, but is granted the visa on the second try the next month, would that have any significant implications while appearing for the F1 visa now? Note be taken that the applicant has a history of prior travel to the US for tourist purpose lasting around 10 days.
Previous approval will help. Watch our recent webinar with Mandy she talks about prior tourist visa refusals and approvals and how they impact a student visa.
@@chaiandcoaching thank you for the quick reply! Yes I did watch the video where Mandy talked about the aftermath of a previous visa denial but there wasn't any mention of what the consequences of an approval after a prior rejection might be, so I thought I'll ask it once. Thank you once again for your help and the videos:)
I have been following your Chanel and thank you for te good works you are doing. Please I have admission to study in the USA . I have recieved my i20 from the university, however upon recieving it I realized they indicated the source of funding to be FAMILY, I wrote to them stating that I have my own enough personal funding for my studies and funding from family would just be supportive, the wrote back that the now do not require prove of source of funds as part of the application process so they enter the same amount and source of funds for all admitted students and I would have the chance to prove my source of fund at the visa interview. Now am about filling my DS 160 form in your opinion sir how do I enter my source of funds in my ds 160 form so it doesn't contradict my i20. Should I select the source of funds as self ?

I put in my 2 adult Daughters paper works almost 3years now my Lawyer told me it is going to take 7years for processing/ Interview.my daughters are in jamaica and I am a Permanent Resident in the United States .my question is why should it take so long?
I have 5 f1 visa rejections.The number of universities I've applied to is only one.But the reason behind it is the course;I could'nt find other universities with same course combination.I really want to study at this school,have been inclined to the study methodologies as I took online classes also and have pretty much connections with the professors now. What do you suggest should be done?
Hello, I am in Africa since 2009. The first time I applied for B1/B2 visa was in 2010 in Africa, and it was refused to say that I should apply for my visa from my home country (India) with family. Now Once again I am planning to apply (alone) for B1/B2 visa from Africa, and in the DS-160 application, I have mentioned my last refusal, with no appropriate reason explained. May I know if this time I am asked about why it was refused, what should I say. as it was not explained to me why it was refused or any other appropriate reason.
Please help me with my query: I have got funded PhD program that also requires to show some family fund. Though my family showed financial support of around $13k, in my I20 it is still mentioned as $9k which leads my actual funding and estimated average cost for 12 months as exactly equal. May I know if it is too risky for F1 visa approval? My family, I mean my parents, have more funds than shown in the I20. Is it okay if I bring additional financial proof for more source of funding for the 1~2 year ? Please reply.
Hey hii, thankyou for this informative session you shared, i have a question that i applied for my tourist visa in 2018 and i got a refusal, and now am planning to apply for f1 visa, is there chances of refusal again? Is that previous denial going to affect my interview?
Because visa interview appointment dates will be available any time, may I know if I can request for modifying/editing some part of I20 (e.g., finance) after taking visa appointment ?
I have another question. In my I-20 (following my CFIS), I was asked to mention city of birth which I provided. But my birthplace is a village which is located in the jurisdiction of that city. However, in my passport, my birthplace is mentioned as the name of the village and the province I belong to. May I know if this difference hinder my chances of F1 visa approval?

hello sir, I hope that you will read my comment and reply as soon as possible. thank you very much for your kind information. I am from Afghanistan and I got a fully funded scholarship from Bard college Annandale-Hudson, NY. and I had already a full scholarship from the government of Pakistan which it is major was against my desires and goals and I left that but I had got its 2 years student Visa on that time and I came to Pakistan in order to change my discipline or major, but unfortunately it wasn't possible to change it. and now my question is that, does it make any problem for my US journey or does it cause the rejection of my visa in the visa interview process or not?
If you are working as Finance manager in healthcare and want to join academia. How do you show strong ties for F1 visa for PhD in Finance? Do they need me to link the PhD to my current job even though I want to join academia?
My visa is rejected twice but i have strong funding, world ranking university and engineering courses aerospace engineering. I think my denial is based on relation of usa and pakistan because at that time relations are very critical between both countries . Please reply
@@felixadjei7427 gotcha, all depends on how you explain the situation to the VO. In America, your friend wouldn’t pay for your college tuition, so the VO is going to ask about that.
When they ask if you have any family in the US do they mean immediate family: parents/siblings or any family like uncles, aunts? I have two uncles living in the US, so should I respond by saying I don’t have any immediate family in the US or I don’t have any family?
On the DS 160 form, it's made clear that immediate relatives are siblings ( brother/ sister), parents (mother or father ) spouse (husband/wife). Not Uncle/aunt or nephew/niece.

All depends if you can properly explain the reasons for the gap in a way that makes sense. It will be a concern for the visa officer. Non-traditional students stand out.
Question for the student visa interview: are F1 visa applicants being observed and checked by the VO different than J1 applicants?
I don't think so, every visa interview is taken case by case. There might be different questions for different types of visa. Watch our other videos where we discuss J1 visa.
Thank you for such an amazing video. I wanted to know if we are taking a student loan (as most indian students do) why it will have a negative impact and how to nullify that ? And do we have to show 1.5 times the fee for the whole 2 years or just 1 year fee mentioned on our I-20 ?
taking a student loan shouldn't be a negative impact, that is normal for many students. It's important to have a plan for how you will pay it back.

maybe
When they ask if you have any family in the US do they mean immediate family: parents/siblings or any family like uncles, aunts?
I have two uncles living in the US, so should I respond by saying I don’t have any immediate family in the US or I don’t have any family?
Family in America includes aunts, uncles, cousins etc
On the DS 160 form, it's made clear that immediate relatives are siblings ( brother/ sister), parents (mother or father ) spouse (husband/wife). Not Uncle/aunt or nephew/niece.
Indian students should stop being desperate about getting the student visa.
How so?
