How do graduate students from Sun Yat-sen University immigrate to the United States?

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.

Application process

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

Note: This form is proof of your study in the United States. Please confirm whether your I-20 form is accurate first.

2. Pay US$ 200 to the American Embassy in your jurisdiction, whose name is SEVIS I-90 1.

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

3. You can apply for F- 1 visa after you get the I-20 form and pay the visa fee for SEVIS I-90 1. You should apply for an appointment visa at the American embassy under your jurisdiction.

Note: the visa interviewer is the person who makes the final decision for you-refusing, allowing or entering the political review list. Need to be careful. Sufficient funds prove that there is no tendency to emigrate, which is an important guarantee for the success of the face-to-face signing.

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.

Note: you need to submit photos when filling out the form.

When interviewing, you must bring all the forms you have filled out, the bills you have paid, your English proficiency certificate, something that proves that you have been admitted to an American university, and your passport.

Note: Passports must be valid for at least 6 months longer than the time you expect to complete all your studies in the United States.

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

7. American visas will be issued to applicants within 120 days before the start of school, but the visa review and results can come out earlier.
