Please Mr @fairheart and all experienced NL,
I need to know if a married person going for study with a fully funded PhD scholarship(full tuition waiver + research assistantsip stipends) can be given visa to go with the spouse and kids together? Do we need to show proof of funds(POF) for the family? How much for a family of 5(parents and 3 kids)?

or is it better for the person to go alone first while the dependants(spouse and kids) joins later? Like how many months later please? And its POF also applicable in this instance as well?

Thank you all.

Good evening all,

Please, I have a concern. Got a PhD with funding. The COA is $38k. When I received my I-20, assistantship was given as $38k. But, my department is writing $31k for assistantship in the letter of Sponsorship.

Please, how do I rectify this?

Can I use the two docs with different figures for Visa Application? Will it be a problem?

Please, help me out here.
@fairheart and other gurus in the house, I need your assistance on what to do.

NB. I have contacted my dept. But, I don't really understand what they are saying.

I applied to i Global university
Have been given admission and my form as been sent to me.
Booking a date is the problem because I’m using an agent
School resume April 5
The agent said he can’t book a date for me because i already have a profile with us embassy.
I tried visit visa in 2018 but i was denied
He said he as forward my details to the embassy since febuary 15 we have not hear anything from them.
Is their an issue or make i just chill he said they will get back to me

fairheart:
Contact your school to explain.
I advise you to contact them to explain why there's difference. Last Spring, about 3 applicants were refused because of such difference on i-20 and funding letter. If they can't correct, ask about the difference and print the email along when you're going for your interview.

The students later got their visas after they replied. It is just important to avoid story. Sometimes, the VO want to see the assistantship award letter, then compare with what is on the i-20.

kastgeraldino:
So are you implying that the funding award letter must match exactly what is on the I-20? Even if both figures are higher than the total cost of attendance.

Afternoon guys. What are the chances for people with not so great results?
Unfortunately I finished with a 3.49 in CS and about prepping for GRE.
What are the chances for some sort of funding.
Ps I'm about publishing my undergrad thesis in order to have some form of research experience and also I hold a CCNA cert which I got last year March. Pls any advice would go a long way. Thanks.

zeeLady:
Your profile looks good to me. Your chances are high. There are so many schools you can apply to, for example University of Houston-Victoria, Texas Tech University, University of Arkansa Little rock.....etc.......just google

damtan:
This question may sound funny. At what point of the VISA processing does one pay the SEVIS fee please??

Good Day Miss!

If you’re not the lazy type, You don’t need to pay anyone for this USA student visa shii. Because it’s way easy than other country, it’s just time and money that it will take. You will even enjoy doing it yourself, because it’s interesting and challenging. Eventually, doing it yourself will definitely help you when you go for VISA INTERVIEW and when you kick off your GRADUATE STUDY in the state.

HND is not a barrier in the USA. All you need is to convert your ND and HND result to USA STANDARD, using some professional bodies, e.g WES and co then apply for schools like other Bsc holder.

HND is not that a barrier !! Don’t pay anymore!!


PS: I’m also an HND Grad. I’ve secure 5 admits for Msc since the start of this ‘journey’ tho, still yet to process going for visa interview.

You can reach me on PM if you’ve any other question.

There is no problem.

fairheart:


Your agent is lying. I doubt if both of you know what you're doing!
Share your profile, such as age, course, school name, program level (undergraduate or graduate) and other information, if you want to be helped.
I strongly feel you are about to waste some money and get rejected at the embassy again. Share those info and I will be able to guide you. But whatever you do, do not apply for any visa until you clearly know what you are doing!

After you've gotten your i-20. It needs to be paid before going for your interview

LeviAckerman:

Kindly check your email boss

Mine was suppose to be towards April ending and it was cancelled as well. You can still be able to wait for more dates to pop up. I am still waiting as well. You can book any date you wish to book as far it is within that 120 days prior to your start of program.
