Frequently Asked Questions —USA Student visa
Q1: What is the F1 visa and who needs it?
The F1 visa is the primary non-immigrant visa for international students enrolled in full-time academic programs at SEVP-certified US institutions. You need an F1 visa once you have been accepted and issued a Form I-20 by your university, before you can travel to the US to begin your studies.
Q2: What is SEVIS and why do I need to pay the fee?
SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System) tracks international students throughout their US education. The SEVIS I-901 fee must be paid before your visa interview and is separate from your visa application fee. We guide you through correct payment and documentation.
Q3: How much financial proof do I need for a US student visa?
You must demonstrate sufficient funds to cover at least the first year of tuition and living expenses as stated on your I-20, along with a reasonable plan for subsequent years through savings, sponsor income or education loans. We help you prepare financial documentation that satisfies consular requirements.
Q4: What is OPT and how does it work?
Optional Practical Training (OPT) allows F1 students to work in the US for up to 12 months after graduation in a role related to their field of study. STEM graduates can apply for a 24-month extension, giving up to 3 years of work authorization. We guide students through OPT applications as graduation approaches.
Q5: How long does the US student visa process take?
After receiving your I-20, DS-160 submission and SEVIS payment can be completed within days, but visa interview appointment availability varies by consulate and season — typically 3 to 5 weeks, longer during peak intake periods (May–August). We recommend starting the process as early as possible.
