Hello Ma'am I have two questions. 1. If we Show work experience in our DS 160 it's compulsory to show 3 months or 6 months salary statement? 2. If no one relative in US how can we prof where we can stay ?
I have applied for a 2 year masters program and in I20 it is three years, so shld I give the same time of 36 months in ds160 form? Edit: I just gave 2 years..
Can we show different sources of funding for I20 and DS160? In I20 I have marked sources of funding as Personal funds and Loan. In DS160 I am marking it as Family funds. Will that raise questions? Or should I go with personal funds in DS160 too? The only problem here is I am a student (fresher) and if I will be showing personal funds then they will ask from where did you get this money?
My visa application was put on administrative processing hold 221g on 19th December 2021. I received an update today but my passport is expiring on 31st December 2022, and I have received the request to submit my passport to the US consulate in Hyderabad, India, today. May I proceed with the existing passport or apply for a new one and then submit it along with the old passport? Looking forward to hearing from you
