What Documents Do I Need To Apply For An F-1 Visa?

A: You must provide a significant amount of information to officials in order to apply for an F-1 Visa – something that you can discuss in detail and organize with an experienced immigration attorney. Below, find a brief list of documents and other requirements associated with F-1 student visas.

•    An I-20 form, completed by the school that you have been admitted to and wish to attend. This form proves that you have been admitted to the school and that you have completed the admissions process.
•    A passport that is valid for at least the next six months.
•    Documentation that proves that you are at an appropriate academic level for the school you have chosen in the United States (such as diplomas and transcripts).
•    Proof that you intend to return to your country once you have completed your studies (such as a home title, round-trip ticket, or evidence that you are leaving behind an immediate family member).
•    Proof that you have sufficient funds to support yourself and your family during your course of study, including your tuition and living expenses.

Again, an immigration attorney can help you collect the evidence and documentation you need in order to present a thorough and complete F-1 student visa application. To learn more, contact us today to schedule a free consultation.
