Write to the embassy. They l change /update it[/quote]

Hello house,

I am currently in the US on an F1 doing an MS program. My wife and daughter are hoping to visit me come June this year.
I am actually confused on whether they apply for an B2 or F2. And these are my concerns:

1. Will she be required to provide proof of sustenance (like my bank Statement; BTW School has issued their F2s) for an F2 visa?

2. I have read some cases where a spouse is denied a B2 because she/he was supposed to apply for an F2, even when her intent is not to remain in the US with the spouse?

Thanks for the feedback.

desrie:
did you fill in point of contact

Point of contact doesnt need to be a person it can be an hotel, a company that you arw going to.
So its up to you to decide..

The Visa B1/B2 and B1 are technically the same after you've satisfied the criteria in issuance of B1 visa (Attending Conference,seminar etc)

Sir, Kindly take time to read through the thread. You will see that bank statements are not needed at all. And you will learn a lot about USA visa application. Cheers.

You only need to read through this thread and you will realize that your questions, and more, have been answered. Your present occupation is a "Contractor" and your budget depends on what flights you plan to take, where you intend to stay (5 star hotels are normally more expensive than 2 star hotels, etc), what you will spend there, etc. You can deduce your budget yourself.

Reading part one of the thread will also help you. Now, go to work and build yourself a successful visa application!

First, USA embassy are not interested in invitations, they will not consider it.

Your application will be judged on your strong ties to prove that you will return home.
Then robust finances.

If you read back you will understand what is required.

You came for 8:45am interview right??

Hi Lady Guinivere,

I am currently in the US on an F1 doing an MS program. My wife and daughter are hoping to visit me come June this year.
I am actually confused on whether they apply for an B2 or F2. And these are my concerns:

1. Will she be required to provide proof of sustenance (like my bank Statement; BTW School has issued their F2s) for an F2 visa?

2. I have read some cases where a spouse is denied a B2 because she/he was supposed to apply for an F2, even when her intent is not to remain in the US with the spouse?

Could you advise me on which choice is better. Thanks.

Hello House, I attended my interview yesterday with my husband and baby, and also fixed and interview for my parents and grandma at the same time(7:15am) both at the Lagos Consulate. So we went as two separate groups my family as one then my parents and grandma as another. Here is how it went.

Hubby and I: Good morning(hubby carried daughter, I held the documents)
VO: Smiles, good morning. Have I attended to you before
Hubby and I: No, you haven't
VO: Passports please
I passed them and she started typing not looking at us again but asking questions
VO: How long have you been married
Hubby and I: 2years (dunno but we kept on replying together most times)
VO: Is this your first child (still typing)
Hubby and I: Yes
VO: how old is the baby
Hubby and I: 4 months
VO: what do you do
Hubby: I am a territorial sales manager at Bleep covering both southern and western part of Nigeria(then my daughter start making some uncomfortable sounds like she wanted to cry, hubby started rocking her I started saying soothing words to her and she finally cried a bit, the VO raised her head, watched us and smiled, I quickly collected the baby and calmed her down)
VO: So how long have you worked at Bleep
Hubby: 4 months
VO: what did you do previously
Hubby: I worked as a customer relationship manager with coy abc for 5years
VO: what do you do
Wife: I work as a risk officer with xyz Bank(realised I didn't call my profile well, I repeated immediately I work as Risk Analyst and so so so Officer witg xyz bank)
VO: how long have you worked with the bank
Wife: 3years
VO flips through our passports(in my mind am like she is checking for any issued visa/travel history , we all had virgin passports, then she continues typing)
VO: where are you traveling to in the US
Hubby and I: Massachusetts
VO raised her head looks at us and goes back to typing
VO: what will you be doing there
Hubby: vacation and visiting family
VO: who will you be staying with
Hubby and I answered together
Hubby: Sister
Wife: My aunty
VO instantly raised her head with a confused expression and said, come again sister and aunty
Wifeinstantly replied) we call her sister here in Nigeria but she's actually my aunty
VO: smiles and says Oh I see
VO: your father or mother's sister
Wife: Mother's younger sister
VO: what does she do in the state
Wife: she's a medical doctor
VO: how long has she been there
Wife: 5years
VO: is she married
Wife: No, but she's getting married soon in about a month time
VO types a bit, brings out rubber band to bind our 3 passport together. I started pinching my husband like yeah we have gotten it but I said calm down what if she wants to tie them together and return to you, the she drops it beside her and hands us a white paper with a huge smile saying you pick up your visa in 3working days and circled the center for us. We were so happy smiled and gallantly strolled out. That was our first time ever applying for a visa and we got it yippe!!!

My parents and grandma's interview they are actually going for my aunty's wedding in June.
VO: why are you going to the US
Dad: to attend a relative's wedding
VO: what's the relationship to each of you
Dad: explains, my wife's younger sister and her (grandma) daughter
VO: where will the wedding be taking place
Dad: New york
VO: but your form says you are going to Massachusetts
Dad: that's where she lives but the wedding is in New York
VO: where will you stay in new York
Dad: reservations have been made to accomodate us at xxxx hotel the same venue for the wedding
VO: have you traveled before
Dad: Yes
VO: where
Dad: Germany(that was like 20 something years ago with the old Nigerian passport, so his passport now was still virgin)
VO keeps on typing and hands him white paper, I forgot to tell my dad that white paper is good news, he said he collected it stared at it for a while and felt like okay no problem we will stay in our house so he said to the VO
Dad: thank you for your time, we appreciate
VO: congratulations your visa has been approved you can pick it up in 3 working days
Dad: smiles ooh! Thank you.

That's how the 6 of us were successful, no document was searched. Thanks to the house I read and read and understood the process I didn't bother printing statement of Account or go with so many unnecessary documents. My mum carried like 50pictures saying she will show them how family history and her sister, I told her wasn't necessary she didn't listen (elderly people things, lol the woman said she didn't want to take chances)

Once again house, thank you!!! For all the useful information shared here.
