Have you added your kids to your I-20 as that would be the first step, as long as they are included on your I-20 by the school, you can contact the embassy support desk for support in adding them as dependents for the F2 visa, and yes, you can should include it on your DS-160 since they will be mentioned on your I-20 anyways that you have accompanying dependents.

Let's see if the gurus in the house have other ideas.


Yes I have I-20 forms for them. I have already booked my own visa appointment. I don't know how to include them so that we can go for the interview together.

Good day all.

A quick advise here.

My school just sent me an updated i-20 form with a new start date of 31st May 2022 instead of the previous start date of 1st June 2022 and also a change of school official to contact upon arrival.

My challenge now is that I have already submitted the details of the previous i-20 on my DS-160 form and the arrival date I stated earlier on the DS-160 form is now the new school start date on the new i-20 just issued.

For the sake of the interview, is it okay to stick to the previous i-20 form as my interview is in 4 days time. Or should I fill a new DS-160 form.

I am asking because I believe the interviewer at the embassy might want to confirm the start date with the school especially if the interview goes well visa is approved.

Your advise is needed here please

Did you go with any passport photograph ?, how many copies?

Yes. I went with four copies. They collected only one.
Remember they have their own specification.

F1 SEVIS number will be there, as you continue, you will still see a column where you will put F2 SEVIS number.

Tskillz:
Hi guyz, I want to create my profile and book an appointment for F2 visa but I am a bit confused with the following;

STUDENT AND EXCHANGE VISITOR PROGRAM DETAILS
SEVIS Number
University Name:
University Zip Code:
Principle Applicants Name:
Principle Applicants Visa Status:

My question is which SEVIS number should be entered ? Main applicant (F2) or principal applicant (F1)

Thank you

Okay thank so much brother. What about my personal funds should I go with my bank statement also and add it if they ask about the sponsor stuff. Or I should just don’t mention it at all since they haven’t send me an Updated i20 that stated that I have personal funds

The name you use on your visa application must match the name on your passport.

You can still put married and have ready the reason why you haven't done the name change, IF that question comes up; my wife's 2 previous US visas were under her maiden name, but we indicated on her applications that I was her spouse and sponsoring her trips on her application. Just have your marriage certificate and the newspaper clipping, but they almost never ask anyways.

Yes, this has been the norm since COVID-19; just go for your interview with a signed clear copy of the I-20 to the interview.

Please guys is it ok to use the SEVIS details on the I-20 I have at the moment to book appointment on cgi? Then change it when my referred I-20 is ready but this would be before I go for the interview. This is bothering me because I didn’t see any provision to edit SEVIS and university details on cgi-update profile�

If you have received your I-20, then your SEVIS number is on there, I don't think SEVIS number changes. What's your referred I-20?

And on CGI, yes, you can always change those details around SEVIS and University code as well.

Thanks @Aniomaman81 for the response. Sorry I didn’t relate my question well. I’m expecting I-20 from a university where I got funding. That is my preferred I-20. But at the moment in other to book early appointment date, I want to use the SEVIS fee details from another university where I have no funding but the I-20 is readily available. I’m asking if I can still edit it when the other I-20 is available?
