Create a new Ds-160 form. And input the new code in your visa application "update profile" section. Then print out your new visa confirmation slip.

Hello guys..

Has anyone gone for F2 visa Interview with your partner under OPT and it was approved? Please if any I would want to connect

OPT is no more than 2 years I think... why didn't you apply for an F2 visa previously?

Is it possible for someone who just finished secondary school to travel to canada? How much does one need to have before considering traveling abroad. Please someone should explain I tried googling but I didn't get my desired answers
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Picricchem: 5:17pm On Apr 17, 2021
I will strongly advise that you stop bothering them. They will communicate their decision to you when they are ready. Just relax, all will be well.

Good afternoon all. Please, is anyone going to Texas Tech this Fall? I applied for a PhD in Geosciences and all I see on my application portal is Departmental review since late January early February.

I contacted the Graduate school last month and was asked to contact my Department. I did that, the Grad coordinator replied me saying they are in the midst of review. I sent him another mail last week but he is yet to reply. I am just wondering how long the review process takes. Please, is there anyone experiencing this too as well?

Thanks while I await your responses.

I think this is a norm for them. I applied on April 2nd. They couldn't say they have received my application. I had to wait till this week, then I had to remind them and mailed them before they sent it to my department for review. The review is still on up till today since on Monday. If you don't worry them, they won't do anything. Call them or mail them more. No time.

If you can defend why this school, why this course, what will the course do for you and you've a good proof of fund(preferably parent) then you should be fine

I run a company that has a Bank account that handles some cash flow that could stand as my proof of fund for the Visa interview.

Are company accounts allowed for proof of funds?
The company is registered by me.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by urchdiya(f): 9:06pm On Apr 17, 2021
Because of COVID-19 in 2020, I couldn’t. Then when embassy finally opened, hubby had months to grad and on OTP now

Thanks for your contribution. Please, what department did you apply to? Is it MSc or PhD? I hope before the end of the month, we will hear good news by His grace.

Hello house, can I get anyone applying for MA in Art history and curatorial studies or MFA in any of the visual arts field here?
I need some insights on schools to choose and other relevant information. Thanks!

You are welcome. I applied for PhD in Psychology. Amen ooo. I believe. I have gotten 3 admissions already but still waiting for this one and funding too. I heard they will start sharing funds by May and it will favour us. God will do it.

Hello everyone,
I will appreciate your advice/opinion regarding my situation.

I am a PhD student studying in USA but I moved to Canada last year December after my PR application was approved.

My US visa expired 2018 but I scheduled for another one last year but my appointment was canceled due to COVID.

I’m in my dissertation phase so nothing is really going on aside from meeting online with my supervisor every two weeks. Technically, I’m still working in the states as a researcher.

Now I have to go back to USA for personal reasons before July ending. My I-20 will expire December 2022, I won’t be needing extension because I plan on graduating before then.

My main concern is can I still apply for F1 visa on an I-20 that’s less than 2yrs?
I doubt if I’ll be able to apply for visiting visa because I still work in school (but I won’t be working during summer break)

I’ll appreciate your input.

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Echeche21: 12:32am On Apr 18, 2021
Please I will need your advice. My sponsor decided to use my account for his business transactions to create inflows and outflows in my account for visa interview so that I present the account as personal funding.

My fear is, judging the time the transactions started and expected visa interview date, it won't be up to 6 months but will be 4 months. How do I defend the source of fund being that I will be presenting that my personal account as POF to VO?

well firstly your SOa might never be requested during the process of interview depending on how good you could defend your self, and 3 month statement is enough, I’m not sure who set the 6 months standard.

Good evening everyone!
Been following this thread since 2019 and I'm about to begin my visa application journey...

I got a full ride at Amherst College; hence, in filling the Ds-160 form, what do I input as 'person paying for this trip'?


As long as the scholarship is stated on your I-20, feel free to put nothing in that section.

My fav forum, and I’m back after 4 months in Uncle Sam’s land, I bid everyone preparing for interview good luck and also Gods speed to those processing their admission, one topic we fail to discuss and I’ve barely seen on here is survival in the United States, this issue concerns those without a GA, I’d advise you get a survival skills, you’d need it I swear. You’d also need all the money you could come with, Let this thought resonant at a lower frequency in your mind as you go about processing your travels, I wish everyone the best.

Working outside the university is not permitted. Uber needs your SSN and it’s also frowned at. So what skills you talking about?

I would say what is realistic... tell people how the way look like and don't sweetcoat it. Japa na survival... more than 50% International students don't have funding. How many foreign students fit pay the tuition with 20 hours of $10 on campus jobs? Hence, most international students resolved to work their ass out. This way na hustling things and nothing is sure.
