@@chaiandcoaching It went well mybe because I had travel history of being abroad. It was an F1 visa. Now I want my spouse to join me because being far from each other isn't easy.

Thank you very much for what you do. My name is Idris Olopade from Nigeria, and I'm a first-year PhD student at the University of California, Merced. It has been challenging for me to run the Ph.D. program without my wife because we just got married barely a month after I left the country, but I'm afraid I'll have to wait even longer. I got my visa on the 18th of May, 2023, and we married on the 8th of July, 2023. I got to the United States on the 11th of August, 2023. She was only asked the following questions before her application was pronounced denied; So, you're a Research Assistant? I work with Dr. Lateefah Akano as a research assistant in the Department of Accounting at Olabisi Onabanjo University. Our work primarily involves an in-depth exploration of ... VO cuts. Where's your husband? He's at the University of California Merced pursuing his Ph.D. program in political science... When did he start his program? He started on August 16th, 2023 When did you get married? For how long have you been married? We got married on July 8th, 2023... We have been married for eight months, and today marks precisely the 8-month anniversary. VO cuts Have you traveled out of the country before? No, I have not had any reason to... And that was all. That said, I need to make plans for the future. Consequently, I have decided to travel back home this summer to reunite with her, console her, and return by August to continue with the program. Now, I would appreciate your thoughts and advice on the next steps. Should we try reapplying for the F2 visa after some months, probably around first week of August, even when we're not sure in concrete terms what might have been the reason for the initial denial? Instead, should we wait until May 2025, when my F1 visa will expire, so I can go to Nigeria and reapply with her? Will the second choice be plausible enough for high chances? Thank you very much for your concern.
My husband got rejected recently, now I have a much better idea why, cause we just got married 2 months ago… and when he was asked about when did we get married, he just answered the date… Thanks for your video! I am so depressed for days, now I have a little bit more hope

Hi, I’ve applied for my master's in the USA, received my I-20, and am now booking the visa appointment. I have one question: We have to add spouse's name on my wife passport who is the F2 applicant and have applied for the same. It should be done by next week. For now, can we book the visa appointment using her old passport along with the acknowledgment receipt of the new passport? When appearing for the interview, we can take the new passport with my name on it. Please reply.
In case of USA F2 visa, should the address of the marriage certificate exactly match with the passport? Ex: Post code and road name mentioned in passport which is not mentioned in marriage certificate/nikanama. Will it be a problem in getting a visa? Please give an experienced opinion.....

I've been following your videos for a long time, and they have been incredibly helpful. My husband is doing his master's in the USA, he will graduate by this December and I am currently studying in Malaysia. From Malaysia, I applied for an F-2 visa twice and was refused both times. Despite submitting all required documents, including a letter from my university and proof of funds, my visa was denied under Section 214(b) of the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act. The embassy provided a letter stating that visa was denied under Section 214(b) and inform that after all circumstances, they could not approve my visa. Given this situation, what should I do? Should I reapply? and what are the changes i should make?

What if my spouse just wants to visit me for 2 weeks and not stay back during the duration of my study? Which type of visa is better, B1/B2 or F2 visa?
My husband is in USA doing his phd which is fully funded. We got married last year and after 6 months of our marriage i decided to apply for b2 visa as i was working at that time and i took leave from my company for a month to go and visit my husband but the visa got rejected on 214(b). Now i have left my job and applying for f2 visa we have all the required things just wanted to know what should i explain in my ds160 about the rejection of my b2 visa. Also will the last rejection impact this visa interview? Please help.

During the visa interview visa officer only asked about our mariage date and that's it. She even did not ask any questions related to my husband so we didn't realize what happened there
@@chaiandcoaching We applied for F1 and F2 visas together. It was in Uzbekistan and we waited almost a month. They got our passports and documents and we got our answer via email. At that time mine as a F1 visa holder approved but my husband's was not. I told them about the date, how much time we are living together. Then she did not ask any related questions about our marriage.
Thank you so much for the amazing videos, but sir i have one question, I want to apply for f2 visa but my husband’s mother's name and mine are the same. in this case there will be any trouble in the embassy?

I am on F1 visa and my husband with my 2 girls in the home country. they got refused twice. Its really hard for me to live without them. In the first attempt,we applied together.we got rejected. Then i applied solo and got acceptance. After I reached USA, we had another attempt but handed over white slip saying reason other than home country ties. Any suggestion please
I’m sorry to hear that! If you want guidance you need to share all the details of the interview: -location -questions the VO asked -your exact answers -documents shared -university & degree -etc.
@@chaiandcoaching in the first attempt, I think we couldn't satisfy visa officer for our home country ties. In my second attempt solo, I showed my country ties 1. Permanent job 2. My inherited property 3. My family and kids. I got my visa approved. I came here and started my studies. But I found it hard to live without kids. So we applied again. But visa officer said to my husband that your wife showed the family in country ties. My husband tried to explain the situation. Like kids and mother are suffering a lot. Officer also asked about finance. My husband couldn't satisfy him with this question. We have $18000 on the account and I am also getting enough stipend to have a balanced life here. Also my university has some support system like free grocery etc. We again tried to adjust ourselves but now I am unable to control my emotions for my kids. We are planning to apply again. Please I need your guidance. I don't want to quit but if they didn't approve my family visa this time, may be I have to quit. This PhD degree is my dream.
Hi Chai, Thank you for your valuable information. I want to ask you something. My partner is in USA on F1 visa (PhD studies), we met during our Masters in another country (not our home country). Now, I am in Germany for my PhD studies at a Prestigious Institute and we are intending to marry in December this year. However, I will be continuing my study in Germany after marriage. I want to apply for F2 visa instead of B2 visa to visit him often. What do you suggest, how should I approach this situation where they can ask me why I don't want to apply for B2. My PhD will finish in 3 years from now, around 3-4 years in his case. I don't want to apply for B2 incase, I need to change my visa status in future. I'd be extremely grateful if you can provide any information in this particular case. Thank you.
I’m not sure about that, sorry. F2 is for moving to US and being together. B1/B2 is for short visits. Please get help from an immigration attorney or the experts at Argo Visa for guidance. 😃

I have one question: We have to add spouse's name on my wife passport who is the F2 applicant and have applied for the same. It should be done by next week. For now, can we book the visa appointment using her old passport along with the acknowledgment receipt of the new passport? When appearing for the interview, we can take the new passport with my name on it. Please reply.

Hey.. we got married just 10 months ago .. and my wife is on F1 visa and she just moved 2 months back ..can i apply for f2 ?
@@AamirSohail-ed1gp sure, follow the instructions online
In case of USA F2 visa, should the address of the marriage certificate exactly match with the passport? Ex: Post code and road name mentioned in passport which is not mentioned in marriage certificate/nikanama. Will it be a problem in getting a visa?
Please give an experienced opinion.....
I’m not sure about that, sorry. Please get help from an immigration attorney or the experts at Argo Visa for guidance. 😃

I've been following your videos for a long time, and they have been incredibly helpful. My husband is doing his master's in the USA, he will graduate by this December and I am currently studying in Malaysia. From Malaysia, I applied for an F-2 visa twice and was refused both times. Despite submitting all required documents, including a letter from my university and proof of funds, my visa was denied under Section 214(b) of the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act.
The embassy provided a letter stating that visa was denied under Section 214(b) and inform that after all circumstances, they could not approve my visa. Given this situation, what should I do? Should I reapply? and what are the changes i should make?
Sorry to hear that! You can always reapply but you will need a new and better strategy. Watch our visa interview playlist for more tips. Also, you can also take the free visa interview checkup quiz to see how you score and how the visa officer will likely respond:

During the visa interview visa officer only asked about our mariage date and that's it. She even did not ask any questions related to my husband so we didn't realize what happened there

@@chaiandcoaching
We applied for F1 and F2 visas together. It was in Uzbekistan and we waited almost a month. They got our passports and documents and we got our answer via email. At that time mine as a F1 visa holder approved but my husband's was not. I told them about the date, how much time we are living together. Then she did not ask any related questions about our marriage.

I am on F1 visa and my husband with my 2 girls in the home country. they got refused twice. Its really hard for me to live without them. In the first attempt,we applied together.we got rejected.

@@chaiandcoaching in the first attempt, I think we couldn't satisfy visa officer for our home country ties.
In my second attempt solo, I showed my country ties 1. Permanent job
2. My inherited property
3. My family and kids.
I got my visa approved. I came here and started my studies. But I found it hard to live without kids. So we applied again. But visa officer said to my husband that your wife showed the family in country ties. My husband tried to explain the situation. Like kids and mother are suffering a lot. Officer also asked about finance. My husband couldn't satisfy him with this question. We have $18000 on the account and I am also getting enough stipend to have a balanced life here. Also my university has some support system like free grocery etc.
We again tried to adjust ourselves but now I am unable to control my emotions for my kids. We are planning to apply again.

Hi Chai,
Thank you for your valuable information. I want to ask you something.
My partner is in USA on F1 visa (PhD studies), we met during our Masters in another country (not our home country). Now, I am in Germany for my PhD studies at a Prestigious Institute and we are intending to marry in December this year. However, I will be continuing my study in Germany after marriage. I want to apply for F2 visa instead of B2 visa to visit him often. What do you suggest, how should I approach this situation where they can ask me why I don't want to apply for B2. My PhD will finish in 3 years from now, around 3-4 years in his case. I don't want to apply for B2 incase, I need to change my visa status in future.
I'd be extremely grateful if you can provide any information in this particular case.
Thank you.
I’m not sure about that, sorry. F2 is for moving to US and being together. B1/B2 is for short visits.
