Two. Matters needing attention in applying for a study visa in Spain

1, uneven material

In order to minimize the impact of human factors on visas, embassies and consulates have clear regulations on application materials. Although under normal circumstances, the visa officer will not personally review every piece of the applicant's materials. However, it is suggested that when the visa officer mentions a question related to a required material, you should hand in the relevant materials for the visa officer to check while answering the question.

Step 2 hide the facts

For visa review, the authenticity of the submitted materials is an insurmountable high-voltage line. The embassy or consulate will definitely confirm whether the materials submitted by the applicant are true during the audit. If the materials are considered untrue, the visa will be refused. Similarly, intentionally or unintentionally concealing information from the embassy will also lead to direct visa refusal.

3. Lack of economic ability

Applicants who are going to apply for a visa to go abroad should know that materials related to personal economic ability are very important, and all materials linked to money will be carefully examined and re-examined by the embassy or consulate.

4. I was too nervous during the interview, and the key questions were answered in confusion.

First of all, it should be clear that the visa officer's key concerns include: reasons for studying in the United States, reasons for choosing schools and majors, curriculum, school profile, future planning, career planning, reasons for returning to China, sources of funds, and parents' work income information.

For these points that visa officers focus on, remind students to do their homework in advance. The homework here refers to sorting out all the relevant information about the above problems; Second, in oral expression, we must do a good job of preheating questions and answers in advance to prevent logical confusion, unclear expression and even inconsistency due to nervousness.

5. Showing or being judged to have an immigration tendency.

In the interview with the visa officer, the visa officer will re-evaluate your application according to your answers. If you show an immigrant tendency when answering questions (such as excessive yearning for foreign life and no clear plan to return to China for employment) or the applied major is sensitive, it is easy to be rejected.
