Hello adewotired. It will not likely have a material impact on the visa, but you owe it to yourself to get it corrected by the school. adewotired: |

Hello man105. Stay where? Your question is unclear. You may apply again whenever you like, though if nothing material has changed, the result is likely to be the same. man105: |

Hello ebonyademi. It's your choice whether you want to apply separate or together. The main issue will be explaining how both adults in the family can afford to be full-time students without recourse to unauthorized work. ebonyademi: |

Good day All. I was at the embassy for a visiting visa in late 2015 with my wife who was heavily pregnant then but we were denied. This year I secured a master admission and will be going for the dinterview soon. My questions are; 1. What are my chances of getting the student visa since I have been before for a different visa; visiting visa. 2. What should I expect from the VO. Thanks |
Re: U.S. Student Visa (F1, M1, & J1) Forum - We're Listening by abujaniv: 2:01pm On May 22, 2017 |
Hello Apalowos. We don't discuss chances on this forum, just qualifications. You should expect the visa officer to ask you a series of questions to determine your qualifications as a student and your ability to pay for your education. Apalowos: |

Hi mzjennypher. That is between you and the school to work out--it has no bearing on the visa process. Different schools have different procedures. We would advise caution to be sure you are dealing with a reputable institution of higher learning before sending over large sums of money. mzjennypher: |

Dear VO, I was at the embassy last year twice but the application was not successful. I secured another admission with another school and the class is due to start in August, I am 33 and single, my mom is sponsoring me as my initial sponsor (guardian, who is also my uncle died January). I need advise as to know if I can go ahead and apply. Thank you |
Re: U.S. Student Visa (F1, M1, & J1) Forum - We're Listening by abujaniv: 6:37pm On May 23, 2017 |
Hi Bukiemarian. This is a decision you have to make for yourself. Does it make educational and economic sense to stop working and spend a lot of money getting more education at this time of your life? The answer to that question is dependent on the individual and their circumstances. Bukiemarian: |
Re: U.S. Student Visa (F1, M1, & J1) Forum - We're Listening by seunban: 8:56pm On May 23, 2017 |
Thanks the VO, I have information I didn't make known to the consular on my previous interview like, where I work, what I do there and how my PhD is going to help me build my career and my personal company I registered in 2014. I was succinct on the day! Can I reschedule another appointment immediately and make known all the information during the interview on the new appointment date. Also, I have a fiancee who I plan to get married to by next year(our introduction in Mid-July, 2017). Can I state this if the consular asked if i am married? Lastly, I don't have travel experience, what can be say about that with my application? I will be expecting a reply as soon as possible. Regards |

Re: U.S. Student Visa (F1, M1, & J1) Forum - We're Listening by abujaniv: 3:58pm On May 25, 2017 |
Hello seunban. You may apply again as soon as you like, however, you should be prepared to present new evidence in support of your application. Otherwise, the result is likely to be the same. You may state whatever is the truth in regard to your marriage status and travel. "Consular" is an adjective requiring a noun, in this case "officer." seunban: |
Re: U.S. Student Visa (F1, M1, & J1) Forum - We're Listening by abujaniv: 4:05pm On May 25, 2017 |
Hello sato1985. You should tell the consular OFFICER whatever is the truth. You may apply with dependents, such as a wife. But keep in mind, if both of you live in the US, your living expenses will climb exponentially while your combined earning power falls to zero. sato1985: |

I want to ask you about visa renewal in Nigeria. I am on OPT and US visa will expire in 2weeks. I would have to visit Nigeria for renewal anytime I leave thE country. I have a Canadian visa and thinking of travelling to do it there next week so if anything happens, I can come back before the existing visa expires or should I go back to Naija and take the risk in case anything happens at the embassy in Nigeria. Also, can i send my documents to Naija for someone to apply for me via DHL. Would I be required to be present? |

Hello VO, IF a spouse is applying for student visa F1 and dependents added on the i20, is it mandatory for dependents (other spouse and Kids) to change there B1B2 visa to F2 since they are not going to stay permanently with the spouse. Are they suppose to apply for visa together with the F1 if above is yes if one of the kid is a USA citizen, should he/she be added as dependents during VISA application Thanks |
Re: U.S. Student Visa (F1, M1, & J1) Forum - We're Listening by abujaniv: 1:19pm On May 27, 2017 |
Hello ddbluv. I don't understand what you mean by "risk" at the Embassy in Nigeria. If you are in status an have abided by the terms of your visa, you have nothing to worry about. You can also renew in Canada. We strongly discourage people from sending their passport and travel documents through the mail--you should never be without your passport in a foreign country. Those are the risks you should be concerned about. ddbluv: |
Re: U.S. Student Visa (F1, M1, & J1) Forum - We're Listening by abujaniv: 1:21pm On May 27, 2017 |
Hello ebonyademi. F2 visas are typically for dependents who will be living the the F1 principle applicant in the US. If the US citizen child is dependent on the parents for food, shelter and survival, then he/she is indeed a dependent. ebonyademi: |

Good day VO, 1. I want to know if one's fiancee can serve at a strong tie in case consular officer asked if one is married? and what evidence can one present to show this? 2. Can one's registered company shows a strong tie? Thanks |
Re: U.S. Student Visa (F1, M1, & J1) Forum - We're Listening by abujaniv: 8:18pm On May 27, 2017 |
Hello goddeyinvolve. So if I'm understanding correctly, you plan to demonstrate that a person you have not married yet and that you plan to leave for years at a time will serve as ties to your country? Read that through a few times and imagine what a visa officer might think. goddeyinvolve: |
Re: U.S. Student Visa (F1, M1, & J1) Forum - We're Listening by goddeyinvolve: 8:58pm On May 27, 2017 |
abujaniv: I asked the question because I want to know. Our wedding is coming up by next year, when I will be coming during the summer. As well, you didn't answer the second question. Can one's registered company shows a strong tie? Thanks for your time! |
Re: U.S. Student Visa (F1, M1, & J1) Forum - We're Listening by seunban: 7:48am On May 28, 2017 |
Hello VO, Thanks for the great works. You usually talk about "change in status" or "material" for someone reapplying. I want to ask, what is that change in status it material. Can we say there is change of status for someone whose marital status or travel history has not changed but only has new information to present on the next appointment? I would be happy to get clarification on this! Thanks |
