This advice here is misleading. F2 visa is not a B1/B2 but a long-term visa. Being a dependent of an F1 ties your F2 status to your spouse. Telling VO you want to stay for 3 weeks means requesting a visit visa. Why not apply for B1/B2 instead. It's a ground for rejection. kamsy101: |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by welf99: 8:16pm On Mar 06 |
In addition, this person knows she/he is not returning after 3 weeks. Why tell the VO? This creates doubts about your intention. F2 is a family unification visa, so why complicate your situation? 6months or 1 year makes more sense if you are unsure how long you will stay. If you truly want to return to your job, apply for a B1/B2 visa. welf99: |

I think the problem with this transcript is FUNDING! GTA is a stipend to support your husband education and not a Family fund. VO went further to ask his salary, your salary and any other siblings...all of this questions is to help the VO come to a conclusion that you do not have enough fund or sponsor. It has nothing to do with duration of stay or if you decide to leave your job to join your husband (the purpose of F2), its none of their business because it is a legitimate claim. F2 Visa approval key benchmark is Financial support during your stay in America because the spouse cant work and if the marriage is genuine. Billions123: 1 Like |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by Billions123: 2:51am On Mar 07 |
welf99:Yes, funding along with duration of stay. The VO even reiterated "You want to leave your work for 5years?" There is no where in the world where your employer would be fine giving you a 5 year leave to go and stay with your husband who is pursuing his own career/goal. She now mentioning banking on the GTA was the last straw. 3 Likes |

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by Fuego07: 3:57pm On Mar 09 |
Hello everyone I recently got my 1-20 that contains two stacked scholarships and one of them isn't showing completely. I asked my DSO about this and she says there's nothing she can do about it and sent a screenshot of how she filled the rti. I was just wondering if anyone has been through this before and if this would be a problem during my interview. Also, do I need to carry the screenshot to my interview and show the Visa officer for reference, or just carry it in case I'm asked about that? |

Hi guys, your views would be appreciated on the below on applying for F1/F2 VISA. - Wife is heading to the states for a Masters, full funding. - Husband already has a B1/B2 visa since 2024. - Husband has full time job (which he can do remote/hybrid). Should wife apply alone, she has been denied before as as single lady) or should we both apply. I have 3 UK visas, visited more 10 European countries. Thanks. |
