Did you recive ur passport? I got my interview done on 6th jun my visa was approved but i havent recived my passport yet.

[@byAish]

Yes I did . Typically you should get it in a weeks time

[@foodreligion78]

while you are not reveling your answer, what is the use of visa experience,

[@byAish]

I have mentioned all the questions I was asked while attending the interview . Questions related to year of graduation, cgpa and workplace are direct, which I think anybody attending the interview can answer for themselves. Having said that I have clearly mentioned how I answered the questions related to funding and education loan. Hope this answers your question

[@nickjones2813]

How is the visa success rate if I'm opting for full education loan for my masters, as my parents can't afford that much, I'm planning to take full loan for my ms program and my parents annual income is around 8lpa. Will these affect my visa processing? Does anyone know? Do they reject based on this thing? I'm planning for jan 2025 intake. Can you please reply?

[@byAish]

I don’t think so . Having an education loan sanctioned won’t affect ur visa approval in any way. If u have it sanctioned keep the sanction letter with you if they ask for proof . I didn’t have mine sanctioned during my interview hence answered accordingly

[@raajac2720]

Education loan offers based student profiles and parents earning capability. Generally CIBIL score is very important to get unsecured loans,above 750 is good chances. But loan offers based on your academic profile like 10,12,and graduation score and test score like GRE, TOEFL, IELTS, Your parents income is little concern,but if you start preparation early like after 6 semester is good. If you wish masters in US complete test before sep .

Sorry, I don’t have much idea on visa acceptance rate . In my opinion it varies according to the visa officer and it also depends how well you answer the questions with confidence and clarity .

I have a quick question.... I did my biometrics at Chennai. One problem that I had was, I couldn't hear the officer properly who was inside the cabin. Will that be the case in the consular too?

[@byAish]

Yes . The visa officer will also be sitting inside a cabin. I also faced the same issue with one question . Just asked him to repeat the question again (twice in my case ). It’s totally fine I guess . Just be polite and professional when you talk .

[@harishb732]

What is your qualifications. Where are you working . what you are going to study in USA and how much was total fund requirement . This would have made your interview information more relevant. Please add that to your video. Thanks and congrats.

[@byAish]

Hello. Thanks for ur feedback . The kind of course one wants to study is a personal choice and funding requirements also varies from course to course and in my case the visa officer asked no questions related to the course I was going to study in the US. That’s why I have not added any such details in the video. Having said that if there is any specific information you want to know I’m happy to help . Let me know 😊
