Hi Argo, nice job, I like listening you guys hrs and hrs, but almost 90% of the time you talk about student f1 visa, we would like to hear about H1, L1, L1 blanket.. please
Very informative. Thank you.
Can you please make a video on expedited interview processes.
Wow! So informative
Great information
Thank you always for helping us.
First time VO refused me because I didn’t answer her in a proper way.
Now I would like to face embassy with same i20. So if VO ask me what’s the changes in ds-160 what should I answer to make VO for taking my interview and make decision after my interview performance?!
First thank you so much for your service. Second, just out of mind or head scratching curiosity, you had a positions that so many well educated Americans would do anything to have your jobs, and even so many government employees who would accept a down grade of their current positions just to be able to live your job experience abroad… would you mind sharing on what made you leave that amazing job which to many is nothing but a dream job?
All of us left for different reasons. Some because they wanted a more stable lifestyle, or because they had other career goals. What we all have in common though is the desire to correct the mistakes that we saw our visa officer colleagues making while we were in our official roles.
@@ArgoSocial Thank you for your reply… Wishing you all the best success in your new journey.
Hi. I'm keep watching your videos and I have a question. I applied last year and got refused it was Bachelor as a transfer student. This time Master and I changed my major Business to ITM. After 1 week is my interview. So in this case what kind of questions VO might ask
I got 2 refusals in 2018. It was a b1/b2 and I wanted to have my baby in the US, after having my previous baby in the US earlier. Most people who applied for similar reasons got refused around that period. The 2nd refusal was within a short time, may be 1 month.
I paid all bills during my stay and returned in good time before the 6month period. The main topic during the interview was that i got discounts for my medical care.
I want to go in for a 3yr study visa this time with my family. What do you advice?
Weldone
would like to inform you that your application requires additional administrative processing. It can take up to 180 days for the process of administrative clearance.
Most administrative processing is resolved within 180 days of your visa interview, but the length of processing time will vary based on the circumstances of each case.

What if I have all documents,why do they refuse?
I have applied for student loan from mpower. Is this alone good for me during interview?
Hello pls I need your help is it possible to get early date for b1/b2 visa applications interview with want to visit my friend in Alabama before December 2022 and how much is early application date in Nigeria
Hello argo visa can you include one visa officer from Kenya
How can I book a consultation from argo
Is it normal on a particular date. All F1 Visa applicants over 100 aspiring students get rejected completely. This came exactly when OMICRON VARIANTS became serious.
My brother applied for student Visa to study Ph.D in Higher Education at Morgan State University for 2021 Fall. He is working with a University in his home country as Dean of College. The University in his home country gave full scholarship and provided affidavit of support. But he's issued 221g letter to provide 2 year pre paid tuition document to submit it through an email provided to him during the interview.
The University has written through him to the consular officer that international students don't pay tuition in advance before the enrollment process. They request the Embassy to consider issuing him the Visa. His case is still pending after providing those documents. He is still waiting to hear from the Embassy although the University has sent him updated I-20 for Spring semester after he requested for deferral. He has always travelled to the US on B1/B2 Visa and has not overstayed. But every visa issued to him is placed on Administrative processing.
Please advise. Is this another Administrative processing because the VO told during the F1 Visa interview that the major problem the VO had on him him was Administrative processing. It is 4 months now
Please advise.
Hi James, your brother's situation sounds frustrating. It's very unusual for them to request proof of 2 years of tuition paid in advance. If he's been in administrative processing for 4 months, he should contact the embassy immediately to ask for an update.
I have got a community college admission for AAS DEGREE wwcc please I just took my exam last year before I started planing for this ...I don't have work .just a volunteering student pastor ... The point is that I want to tell the VO that after my study at the community college I will transfer to university for my bachelors degree . and that is Making it 4yrs .should tell that or should I say after my tow years I will return to my country .please I need help
How much do you charge for 30 minutes consultation
The cost of a consultation is $450
does university choice is very important to get f1 visa....if i choice a low ranking university due to some of my limitations will that be risk for me to get visa?
Yes, the better the university the easier it is to get the visa.
Can l please ask, if you have been denied a F1 Visa 5 times, do you think its possible to be granted a transit visa? If you're flying to a different country on vacation but the layover is in America. Would your denials impact this?
Yes, those denials will impact this. Greatly. And you need a new strategy if you ever want to get a visa after 5 refusals.
Every visa applicant should watch these videos before applying for a visa or get a consultation from you .
The myth is being dimistified here !
Had my f1 visa interview. The officer told me to submit my cv, advisor cv, research plan, scholarship letter (i was fully funded) , and admission letter. I got a 221g yellow letter which stated that the officer needs some time to review my documents. My passport was returned. It’s been over a week now. Please advise. Thanks
In Nigeria?
I have my second visa next month and really need help.I believe i was rejected because i wasnt able to explain why my uncle is willing to be my sponsor .This second time i need to articulately explain.Please hellp
Hi Wendy, you'll definitely need to be able to explain you financial situation fully, not just about one single sponsor.
During my 1st interview my father is in dubai i said my father is working in dubai garden supervisor......but now my father is in india he started a mens parlour....What should i say about my father now....can i say that he is in india he started a mens parlour..will they have previous data about my father job....what i have to say in 2nd interview.....please help me
Explain the situation, just as you did to me.
Hi
I was refused on my first interview. isn't it because I did my interview in French that I didn't have the chance to get my visa?
Hi there! It's hard to determine why you were refused without a full analysis of everything that happened in your interview. The visa interview decision usually isn't based on one single factor but the whole story.
I HAVE A CR1 VISA CASE GIVE ME A WHITE 221G FORM DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS
The color of the paper is irrelevant. The words on the paper are what matter. Please read the words.
@@ArgoSocial to color of the 221g was white

Hi officer I had refused 3 times for F1. In my 3rd attempt I had changed my University as well as course from computer science to information technology.However, there is any possibility to get F1 visa on 4th attempt.
In my First interview I was little bit nervous VO was asked up to financial questions. In my 2nd Interview there was only 2😭 questions was asked. In my 3rd attempt , I have changed my University so, VO was asked about why you changed your University. VO mam had confused me and said sorry your are rejected under 214 b .
Thank you for the context on your situation. Kindly send us an email at hello@argovisa.com!

Hi, I am student who has applied for the Visa interview but I got rejected the first time is there anyway you guys can help me improve the second time I see the visa officer because they said I did not have enough strong family ties to my home
Hi, from which country are u applying from?
@@MrMakavelli-4 if it's in Nigeria can one use his brothers as family home tie?
u.s.a is not heaven people , if you get the visa stay and get your greencard, it's not worth the humiliation, I've been rejected twice even tho i have strong ties with my country , they think they give the right person the visa but those people still go and stay in USA
