How to apply for an American work visa f 1?

F- 1 visa refers to the non-immigrant visa issued by the US consulate to foreign students who want to study full-time in American academic institutions. The specific application process is as follows:

First of all, you need to apply for and get the university admission notice, and get the I-20 form.

2. Pay US$ 200 to the American Embassy under its jurisdiction, which is called SEVIS I-90 1.

Note: This is a prerequisite for applying for a visa.

3. After getting the I-20 form and paying the visa fee of SEVIS I-90 1, you can apply for the F- 1 visa. You should apply for an appointment visa at the American embassy under your jurisdiction.

4. Before the interview, you must pay an additional visa application fee of $65,438+060 (MRV fee) and fill in the online application form DS-65,438+060.

When interviewing, you must bring all the completed forms, paid bills, proof of English proficiency, things that can prove your admission to American universities, and your passport.

If you have a criminal record or are an expert in a certain subject, you need something extra to prove it.
