F-1

Are you an individual planning to study in the U.S.?

The F-1 Student Visa is ideal for individuals who plan to study at an academic institution or language training program in the U.S. To qualify for the F-1 visa, the academic program or university in which you plan to enroll must award you a degree, diploma, or certificate at the conclusion of the program.  

To apply for an F-1 Student Visa at a U.S. Consulate in your home country, you must first be accepted by a U.S. University, Seminary, or similar institution for a course of study.  Once accepted, you will be added to the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) where you can pay your I-901 fee and obtain the necessary I-20 from your University or Institution.  Once a prospective student has the I-20 in hand, SuperVisas can prepare you for your F-1 Student Visa. 

We recommend that students begin applying to U.S. Universities and Programs as early as possible, as it may take some time to be accepted by an approved institution, or to avoid possible delays in visa processing at your home country's U.S. consulate. 

To qualify for the F-1 visa, generally an applicant must:

• Have applied and have been accepted into a course of study at a SEVP-approved school in the United States.
  
• Enrolled as a full-time student at the institution.
  
• Proficiency in English or be enrolled in courses leading to English proficiency.
  
• Have proof of sufficient financial funds to support study in the United States.
  
• Have ties to their home country that show an intent to return after finishing their study in the United States.
  
• Reside outside the United States when you apply.

Additional Services: 

We also offer our clients supplemental visa and application services which may be required by the U.S. Government as part of an application filing, or which may improve an application’s success rate.  

For example, if you are not comfortable handling the communications with the government and filing your own application, then we can help you use an immigration lawyer to represent you as an Additional Service with additional fees. We have a network of qualified  U.S. attorneys and legal experts if you want the added peace of mind in knowing that your application is being represented by a licensed immigration attorney before the U.S. Government.

SuperVisas provides the following Additional Service for this visa: 

• Attorney Representation - In addition to our preparation of your application, you will be represented by a licensed immigration lawyer throughout the entire application process. If you chose this Additional Service, your case will be submitted by a licensed immigration attorney who will also respond to any additional requests from USCIS on your behalf. You can enjoy peace of mind knowing that an attorney is handling all communications with USCIS.
