Hello Argo Visa experts, thank you for all your videos. I got my F1 visa and now I am in the US.
Hello could you help out with the preparation to F1?

Thank you so much🙏
I needed this👌
Really very important session
Thanks for this Video.
the Lady in glasses is brilliant. Definitely know what she's saying
Thank Q so much team it helps me a lot and i hope u will come out many more videos like dis
Wow that's very helpful thanks!
Great advise for a positive outcome of visa interview. I was amazed the way ma’am Mady open some questions what to prepare and not to do. Congratulations & more power!👍🇵🇭
Glad it was helpful!
This is about the 8 th video I've watched presented by Argo, love your content, some of it is quite funny, however what I find about the so called questions the VO askes is why ask a question that really means something else? Why not just ask the actual question. Anyway keep up the good work your doing a good job helping potential visa applicants.
This is very helpful
Thanks you
Got approved.. thank you God and Argo Visa
Thanks so much for your assistance
I would like to hear yall talk more specifically about the k1 visa please
Very useful information
Thanks for this enlightenment Argo. My question is when does one notify the consular officer about the disconnect between his/her job and the course he would be going for? More like career change.
Very good information
Thank you very much Argo my visa was approved today🎉
Congrats! Glad to hear that!
Thanks for the tips. Can I change from someone sponsoring me in the US to self sponsor? If I have previous travels outside my country from 15 or 20 years ago, should I mention them all or only mention in the 5 years asked on the DS 160?
keep on watching your videos
I have applied for J1 visa and it has been denied. I will apply again in two weeks. My mother lives in Turkey, Father in the UK and sister is in Switzerland(married). I'm from Turkey and studying in Bosnia. The officer only focused on how my father went, why he went and so on. I provided some short answers because I didn't expect that he would ask that much deep about my family. What's your advice for future applications?
🎉you do a great job
Very profound. ❤
Thanks!
Thank you all..
You guys are amazing. I have a question. Does taking loan from your school as an Intl student affect your chances of getting approved?. Pls I need an answer
What if someone did interview DV and got approved given 221g to submit passport photos 2×2,my friend did interview 6weeks ago still at AP and submitted passport photos they returned her passport without visa what does that means?
If someone has got Graduate Assistantship(GA), is there the chace to get visa? And if that is the case, can the applicant shows own bank balance certificate for extra expenses, especially for Air ticket, insurance and stationery? would appreciate your reply🙏
what should one do if he is from developing countries like Uzbekistan, where the percentage of getting the Visa is very low?
what do you recommend for preparation?
This is good
Thank you for very helpful informations.
Do Immigrants need to speak English for interview???
Thank you so much for the information.
My question is on the dress code. What is the best dress code for women when going for a U.S visa interview?
Hi Tanya. Smart casual is ok. Have been you interviewed yet?
I have a travel history in my old passport which is expired but using my single status.I applied a new passport using my married status although I was separated 30 yrs. and the new one will be using in visa application.Is my travel history 2014 could be validated ? Could my single status to the old expired passport would affect the new one with married status?
Hello Mandy, do you need to show a bank statement even if you had a full scholarship from the school??
Speaking from Ghana. I have heard a visa officer can get spooked if a parent is on pension, and likely to refuse the F1 VISA. Is that true?
Good day, I wanted to ask if I had 3 visa denials on the J1 visa and going for the 4th one, Is it still possible to get a visa acceptance and if it is can I still get a consultation for 30 mins because for 1 hour the fee is expensive at the moment
Keep it up ..
Hope that you are doing great! I have just been denied for the 2nd time this year for my F-1 visa renewal for continuing graduate studies (I have one more year to finish). Could you please answer the following question? Is there an issue if my sponsor is an American resident? My GPA is over 3.7, I had all the documents, I provided the correct information to the officer and my attitude was positive throughout the interviews. Thank you for your consideration!
I think having your sponsor as an American citizen would be a little challenge cos u need to have a tie with your home country
@@tonyndife2950 right
Hey! I’m in the same situation. Did you get the visa in the 3nd attempt ?
What has changed since...? Don't answer no.
2.Be natural and speak confident.
3.being robotic or memorised or rehearsed answer can put you in danger.
4. Being nervous will cause a lot of words not to come out in English.
5. Be genuine with your answer
Pls how best can you answer this question
Can I show the VO an infographic of my personal career plan? Is that doing too much? This is for an F-1 student visa.
Hi Argo.. Please what is the tips that you can give me to be well prepared for my dvlottery visa on my interview date that will be soon please can you help me please I begging you
Hello. I am 38 female born in Romania with german passport and living and working for over 10 years in Switzerland. I work in a hotel, F&B department. I ve got a working contract for 18 months, trainee program, in Florida. I am waiting for the documents so I can apply for a J 1 Visa at the US embassy in Switzerland.

I do feel more at home in Switzerland but how to prove that. I am thinking to open a business/ hotel, after coming back from my trainee program in US, having the necesary knowledge. The trainee is in room division department, divided in 3 phases.
I am divorced no kids and no relationship. How can I prove that I am coming back to Switzerland or what should I take care, be prepared for the interview? I want to have an exchange year in US since I was in school but my parents didnt allowed me and couldnt affoared it. After I got merried very early with 20 and my husband didnt allowed it. So now that I am divorced I want to havd this experience.
Thank you for your help and any kind of advise.
Greetings! I am applying for a J1-Visa as teacher. My husband and daughter will accompany me thru J-2 visa. My husband had been denied a visa last 2019 under 214b. He applied for a B1-OCS. Now, he is also unemployed. And we put that information in his DS 160. Will his previous denial, and being unemployed affect the result of our visa interview? Thank you so much.
Hello there! Thanks for the great content.
I'm a foreign widow of a US citizen; We were living in Sri Lanka when my husband passed away. My tourist visa was rejected in 2019. What will I need to prove at the IW1 visa interview?
Does Any attempts to log in to cho while your account is frozen will reset the clock or extend the frozen time?
So beautiful guys ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi thank you for your videos pls my question is if I indicated on my ds-160 only my formal work can i reveal an additional informal work I do even though I did not state that in my DS 160?
Let's get this question answered by the most qualified person! One of our former officers can review the entire situation to identify any risks and the best strategy to help get a visa issued. You can book a consultation with us online:

I want a consult but the exchange rate with Jamaica is so high I can’t afford the 1 hour which I need. All this is so heartbreaking. I just want to visit my family that I haven’t seen in years.
Have you considered the alternate?
Hello! I filed for L2 visa extension (spouse I-129S was still valid) and got 221g processing. I got a visa after 70 days of waiting without any marks about processing in the visa. In 1 week after that I applied together with my spouse for a new visa because I129s was about to expire. And we was put to the processing again. Is it possible somehow to reuse the data collected during previous processing which had finished just a week ago to use it for a new one because nothing has been changed in my life, occupation etc. Because for B1/B2 visa if your visa was rejected and nothing is changed in your life between rejected application and new one, your new application will be rejected again. But does similar rule work with the administrative processing as well? I mean reuse of collected data if nothing is changed in applicant portfolio
I’m surprised this channel has nothing to say about those who unknowingly overstayed their visa. Any tips to know. Can I be forgiven if I explain myself.
I got rejected yesterday 😢😢 i answered all the questions properly without any nervousness but I don’t know what had happened
Hi.Recently I'm done with my H1B visa interview and I got 221g with yellow slip.What does it mean?.
Ma'am any tips for C1/D visa interview.. I am selected for cruise line
Thank you for the information and advice.
I had a question does applying to around 10 universities affect the chance of getting f1 visa?
No, it shouldn't. You're basically trying to ensure you get an admission or two. But I imagine they shouldn't be too many. You can say you applied to four or five unis and got accepted in one or two etc...
Applying to a at least two or three universities helps your chances.
@@ArgoSocial info is helpful
Hi mam, I'm from south Asia country. I completed my graduation in China. Now I'm staying in china. applied to usa for Master’s, and got I-20, I got merit base 65% scholarship and i have to pay rest tution fee. I would like to interview at China USA Embassy in Beijing instead of going to my own country. In such a situation, what are the chances of getting a visa from the Beijing USA Embassy? Thanks
Does having family in the USA affect it chances of getting a visa. Like mother or siblings.
Can my brother inlaw serve as my sponsor for my F1 visa....At the time of submitting my Ds 160 form, my husband and i didn't have the require amount to supplement the Merit Award the school granted me......
If you apply as a family for B1/B2 visa and you speak English and you spouse doesn't, is it still better to speak English anyway

why u choose this University??????
Hi I am a doctor from India. I have served in Indian army medical corps as a doctor. Currently I am working at a private hospital. I have mentioned it in previous employment as well as under the section of military service in ds160. I want b1 visa for doing medical observership.. Will military service adversely affect my chance of getting b1 visa? Or is it advantageous? Please answer this question
Were you able to get a b1 for observership?
@@sareenchandani7569 yes
Hi...please, what is your take if an f1 applicant has a United state citizen uncle as a sponsor.
That's a red flag since you have ties to the US
Thank you very much
Please, 15 years ago we applied for B1/B2 as pastors for a program, though my passport was stamped approved it was given back to me by the consular right away. Please. Why was I not given the visa? Many thanks 🙏

We can help! Go to our website for more info. www.argovisa.com
Does our gpa matters for our visa ??

Hello! Please how can I get in contact with you. Please I need personal coaching.
Hello, I got my I-20 today I noticed that the funding were under « personal funds » but the person sponsoring me is my brother will that be an issue ????
Isn’t it meant to be « family funds »
Is not we are comfortable when doing the interview is like we are feared that all this whole process then you use a seconds to denied someone it’s very sad give him or her multiples of time to explain himself and what if he’s comfortable but he doesn’t much about the school most of vo can asked a lot of questions like what’s the motor of your school Thus these questions play a role in my studies ?
How much does it require for Argo consultation
Honestly i want to visit my sister in the US with my 84year old mum will i have any chance to get visa?
It sounds like the advice is mainly for students applying for visas. Do you also have specific counseling for K1 and marriage visas?
Yes, we do. Go to www.argovisa.com to see more about our service.
Do Argo assists clients with F1 Family sponsor with approved I 601-A waiver?
Education and immigrants is the backbone of the USA.
I have minor Stuttering disability does it effect on my visa interview because I already refuse once from US embessy.
That will not affect your interview chances.
Me too

How much is ur condultation- tnx
My visa interview is this Tuesday 27th June 2023
Does it lessen the chance of approval of the B1/B2 visa to do the interview in native language or would it be better to do it in english even though the person is not very fluent and confident when speaking english
Visa officers speak the language of the country where they work.
@Argo Visa the visa officer who denied my sister's visa in Germany last week didn't speak German and my sister didn't speak English. Do you think my sister's denial has anything to do with our record here in the US..Do visa officers check the address in the US and the people here?
If you have been rejected once, does the new officer see the information on the old DS 160?
Your visa record is permanent!
None of this visa officer talk about there approval if they won’t talk about the number of applicants they denied
They did say they interviewed over 70,000
i have my interview on 2nd aug. applying for f2 visa. i had filled DV n my siblings n parents are green card hoder of US. so how can i deal with immigrant pettition n Dv?

Hi, I need your help, I had an interview for a C1D visa, and they said, they refuse the visa for Administrative Processing and did not ask for any documents. They took my passport and said that I will be contacted. This is my first time and I'm scared. Please help me to know what did I do wrong? Or how can I make it right?
What happens? You receive any answers! I hope that everything ended well!!! Best of luck🤞🏻🤞🏻
Did you the visa?
I get my visa!!
@@tito3132 awesome what cruise line ?
@@petagayebennett6669 carnival!!
what info. do we mention when asked, "what do your parents do?"
Smuggle
If we have only one week gap between our program start date and visa interview will that be a problem or if I show a permission from clg of late arrival is it enough
It might be a problem. That is usually not enough time to print the visa and return it to you with enough time to arrive in the US
@@ArgoSocial if I get permission from my college for late arrival is it ok
@@sunnykomatireddy3015 no. Your interview must be before your class. Other wise, visa officers will reject you.
What if my boyfriend is my sponsor? I can't lie and tell that my father owns a company and things like that, that's not my reality. I'd appreciate any advice
Yeah your friend can be your sponsor u actually
I'm eagerly waiting for my interview with respected officer
But I'm very nervous😒😒😒
Good luck!
hey how can I consult u ??
My wife is getting ready for a CR-1 Spousal Visa interview, she has been denied 3 tourist visas and I had her walk away from a job in Malaysia because her boss broke the contract by not having her working as a maid like she was hired for but had her running his Juiceworks business. What should we do if she can't get a certificate of good conduct because of this? Can you do more videos on Spousal/Immediate family Visa's? Thank you.
Hi Mandy, I have a question and would truly appreciate a reply from anyone of you... If we are applying as a musical band and the offer letter states all the band members' names... What visa should we apply for and should we apply as a group or individually? ? Would appreciate your help.

Hello!
for b1/b2 if someone from the US that your related to is paying for your trip, does that raise a red flag for the visa officer?
Yes, it does. It demonstrates a tie to the US
@@ArgoSocial how do you overcome it?
Find someone to sponsor you from your country
Find someone to sponsor you from your country

Please when ure in the middle of an interview and nature calls , can u seek permission to go and free yourself and come please ..????
It's advisable to do nature calls before your interview!
That's not a good idea. Use the restroom before your interview.

Hello Argo . The reason I applied to a community college is because the university I applied to didn’t accept me because my results were not good enough in high school , I felt community college was the best choice because it’s easier for me to get in with my result and I can transfer to a 4 year school after two years , I even got a conditional acceptance to a four year school with my community college I-20 . Can I explain this at the embassy when asked why I choose a community college .
Did you got your visa
@@Occ881 I didn’t 🤦🏽♂️
I need help on how to apply for my expedite date.
Does the visa officer check if the student has a scholarship on the I-20 or not?
They can check all the information on the I-20
Does the university you’re admitted to send all the documents you used to apply for the school to the embassy you’ll be applying for the visa? @Argo Visa
No they don't. You're only required to go to the embassy with your I-20 document
No, they embassy only sees your I-20.

Pls what’s 1 - 20
