No, you don't. The only thing is when picking a date you have to make sure you give enough time for the SEVIS fee to be paid and reflect at the embassy. I used pay4me app which took a little more than a day but from the sevis payment confirmation email, they said it'll take 2 days for it to reflect at the embassy. So just have that in mind.

SEQUIN:
Please do I need to pay for SEVISFEE before I can secure a date on this new system?

Hi everyone, first time posting.
Just wanted to ask a question regarding proof of funds.
I got admission for fall 2024 but wasn't able to go due to personal reasons and because of that, I lost my GA cause they needed someone starting in fall 2024 although the department that awarded me the GA role gave me student employment for spring after which I would take over the GA role starting fall 2025. The COA is 36,000, of which I personally have 18k, my sibling has 10k and my uncle has 20k, which totals up to 48k. My uncle doesn't bear my surname as he changed his last name so I told him to give the money to my dad so he could pay it to my account directly.
Do I also need to tell my sibling to do the same and during the interview, say all the funds are in my account but it's a combination or still take the statement of account of my sibling plus mine with the funds from my dad in it?
I have enough to pay my spring tuition and the student employment is enough to cover rent and feeding, I was just wondering if it's worth the stress or if should I just wait until fall 2025 although the whole election thing is why I really want to go during this spring.
Thanks.
