Thank you so much for this

*** Consular officers even your schools in America prefers that your scholarship award money, money from sponsors etc is deposited in your personal account because that is the best guaranteed that you have direct access to the funds.

** Your father or mother does not need to write a letter (as in affidavit of support by an organisation etc) of support. Just go along with the financial proof of where the money is coming from as the embassy knows how to verify.

** I am not in support of combined or joint sponsors (except joint scholarship awards) especially within same family because this will look like you are struggling to raise the funds which is not good enough as one of the joint-sponsor may disappoint in the subsequent year.

If your joint sponsorship is already a fait accompli just provide the full evidence and be honest to the consular about it but neither of your parent should write any letter. 👍

Please how about a situation when one has the money in his or her personal account but then either of my father or mother gets to write a letter of introduction stating that I am supporting him or her with such an amount while the rest comes from the applicant's personal savings

Hello Michael.

Do not continue the process if it is a PhD admission, but If it is Bsc or Msc funding is not compulsory for you if you can absolutely pay all your COA and proof that capability to the consular.

Funding is not a criterion or it is just one of the criteria (for Phd applicants ) for visa approval decision, therefore, every other F1 visa requirements must be given equal concentration (this is why you have seen full funded Phd/Msc applicants with visa denial).

** Transfer your wealth or your financial capacity to your mum (temporarily) and state her as your sole sponsor . It is not always advisable to use joint sponsors as it can cause outright denial from a lazy consular who doesn't want to do the stress of complicated verification or you might be placed on 221g in order to further verify the joint accounts.

Consular officers have less time allocated for each applicant so the aforementioned can happen when you are trying to over stretch their time with complicated visa application.

** However, if you are absolutely certain about your sources of income with obvious proofs (ie website, past and current contracts , fixed deposit money etc) which will continue while you are still schooling in america then you can indicate a self-sponsor. 👍

Denaturalization is a legal process that requires the government to provide evidence of fraud or misrepresentation in court. Naturalized citizens have the right to defend themselves against such charges, and not all errors or omissions necessarily constitute grounds for denaturalization.
