[@souryabanik0907]

Biggest tip: this is not an interview! Its a matter of showing documents for international travel. That's it. Like you would show your ration card to get groceries. Stop being insecure. Stop being doormats. We've a culture of fear and insecurity.

[@castletheperson]

Actually, it is an interview. That’s why it’s called a visa interview. If you can’t explain yourself, you’ll be rejected.

[@souryabanik0907]

@@castletheperson It doesn't matter what it is called. Who started calling it? You can call it an interview strictly from a definition standpoint and although there is an acceptance/rejection in this matter it is just about showing your documents and giving details on your stay. It's not a test. People enter the embassy scared and leave scared. They're afraid that their visa will get rejected if they don't adhere to a certain script. We've a culture of fear which must end.

[@vamsikrishnagannamaneni912]

[@mohit4902]

To be fair it is an interview, and they are very less likely to reject student visas because you're basically bringing money into their economy. The H1B and OPT and when you actually start earning money is when they show their true colors.

It's because they are very politically oriented while issuing visas. They are less likely to reject student visas because you're basically bringing money into their economy. The H1B and OPT and when you actually start earning money is when they show their true colors. The student life is basically a honeymoon period from a visa perspective.

[@sangeethab5093]

Does already having a H1B visa stamping at the time of F1 visa interview cause any problem in getting the visa approved? For example if the H1B holder decides to go for higher education like PhD program or MD program, will it be problamatic to transfer to F1 visa, should he get the H1B canceled by the employer before going to the F1 interview, or its okay?

I just wanna know why officers still reject even when they are given 100% honest answers, and you don't intend to be an immigrant there. They won't even give us a chance to explain about our documents, and just reject as they see our passports, and i mean why??? We all have our own reasons to study in the States, and we are 100% honest with all the answers, but please don't reject us just because we're originally from a conflict area. It is not like we can change our citizenship whilst we have not even finished our bachelor's. And, we really had to invest both time and money for a visa, and just a rejection from an officer because of an original passport gives us lots of trauma. Thank you.
