Study in USA

If one wants to study in the United States so it needs a visa for which students have to pass from a number of the steps and afterward, he/she will be found eligible for entering the country. So here I am going to tell you about the visa procedure.

Procedure for applying for a student visa and types of visas:

  • There are basically two types of visas which are granted to international peoples for the United States
  • One is Immigrant visa which is applicable for permanent residing of a person in the US and to work over there also and can also leave the country without any restriction and rules of visa and this visa is known as Green card also.
  • Another category of visa includes Non- Immigrant visa.
  • A person applies for this visa under various circumstances such as:
    • When he/she lives in the US on a non-immigrant visa for a number of the years and are doing a job there.
    • When he/she is married to US citizen.
    • When he/she is married to Green Card holder.
    • When he/she has invested some amount in business and in any industry in the US.

A green card holder can sponsor periodically the close relatives such as Father, mother, sister, a brother for the grant of the green card even while still are living in their native country.

Now we are going to discuss the student visa which is named an F-1 Student visa which is related to a non-immigrant visa.

The condition of this visa is that a student can’t get a job outside of a university and is liable to leave the US after completion of studies.

Whereas local immigration visa permits the student to take up a job outside the university during the second year of studies when his/her financial status has changed so they convince the local immigration authority to allow the student to earn but during first-year university also offers jobs in the first year and it is possible to earn up to $500 per month.

Documents Required for Visa Applying:

  • Official letter from the university is most important in which student is about to enroll and also mention the graduate, postgraduate fall or spring semester and also mention the cost of an admission in which subject you have offered the course.
  • If one has applied for admission in the fall semester starting in September he/she will receive the form in April and July but if you have applied to more than one university it depends on them when they will offer you and what will be there cost.
  • If a student has finally decided to select the university he/she must apply 90 days before applying for a visa.
  • Now one has to fill the application and enters the consulate along with documents and afterward collect an application form called-156 for visa and fill it carefully.
  • Information entered should be valid on visa and matches the passport information.
  • A student has to keep all documents in an envelope and fill the telephone number, address and keep them in an envelope after student get a visa they will return their envelope and the courier of DD rupees is paid at a separate counter toward courier charge for delivering this envelope.

  • At the first sight at the counter will check the passport and after that accepts the DD amount which is collected as visa fees and give a receipt of it and after that counter officer will give a 3 fold pink detachable folder with an identification number to carry with your documents. And after that student has to go ahead to the next counter for scrutiny.
  • After submission of visa fees having 1 to 5 turns submission of documents is the next step and after their examination counter officer will ask you for the interview.
  • If a student is asked for the interview he/she must bring that pink foiled slip along with it and after this, all documents will be returned to you along with visa and passport.
  • If an interview invitation is not proposed by the student then they will get the visa through courier.
  • Students must submit their documents properly and one important document which is an institution copy is must be submitted to the consulate officer who would retain it which would be later sealed in an envelope and returned pinned to the passport and this copy envelope is submitted to immigration officer of the United States.
  • It’s the responsibility of the student to check all the documents carefully when he/she will receive the passport and visa.
