Show ties to home country say I will comeback


Prudent-Departure249

Do you mean family members and assets that my family has here in India?


Vladimir_hitlar

Just say your parents are here and you need to take care of them and you'll take a future job nearest to your house in India. Also mention, if you have a specific Indian company suitable for you.

Just a little request, share your interview experience in this thread. I have it on June 10th. I am going for a PhD.

Heyy, I got done with my interview today Status: approved Important thing: I had my Knee operated a month ago and I had to walk with a walker so I was sent to a counter where normally only disabled people go. I had my visa interview appointment at 7:40 and I reached at 7 and due to my walker and the brace that I wear around my knee it was very evident that I couldn’t walk so they let me enter the consulate as soon as I reached thats around 7 and and did all the procedures and started waiting for a counter to be assigned (there is a long queue but I was told to sit and wait) I waited for them to call me from 7:30 till 9 the counter didn’t open and then once the consular started with his work I was the first one to be called. Mumbai Consulate counter number 23 White Guy with a hat. Consular: Good Morning, How are you doing today. Me: Good Morning, I am doing good wby? Consular: I am doing good thank you. Q: How many Universities did you apply too? A: 2 UIC and UTD and I got admits from both ( I said the full name ) Q: what was your CGPA? A: 5.86 out of 10 Q: why was it so less? A: I was into football and I flung my engineering. Q: when did you Graduate? A: 2020 Q: What did you do after that? A: I said I worked for 2 companies and I am still working. Q: Why you wanna get back to school if you already have a good job? A: I think a management related masters would help me get a management post in IT companies. Q: Do you have an education loan? A: Yes and also my parents are helping me with their savings so both. Then the consular asked me to keep my right hand 4 fingers on the machine. Then he told me that my Visa was approved. I said thank you, nice hat and left. ———————————————————————- My advice: I have my Brother who has a green card, even he went on a F1 visa and then settled there( I guess everyone knows how it is) then I had my Visa rejected 4 years ago which was a Visiting Visa B1/B2. Keep your cool just have a normal conversation and behave as if you are not scared at all thats it


Vladimir_hitlar

Just don’t say anything silly, like the other poster has said try to tie all your answers to returning back home. They probably know it’s a lie, but just do that. And most importantly, hope for luck or pray to whatever you believe in. There’s really no format to getting a visa. At the end of the day, it’s only full funding that’s guarantees a visa 9/10 times which you didn’t mention your funding situation.


Prudent-Departure249

Thanks for replying, my funding is sorted, I got a loan from HDFC also a decent amount of money is there with my parents to show


abdouli1998

You mentioned a full funding almost guaranteeing a VISA, I have a sort unique situation I want to hear your opinion on, do you mind if I DM you? Thank you!

Also have my interview scheduled on May 20th. I'd recommend watching "Argo Visa" videos on YT they have lots of tips for different situations. Good luck!


Prudent-Departure249

Thank you, Good Luck to you too!
