Step-by-Step Guide: How to Apply for an I-20 Form for F-1 Student Visa in the United States

Congratulations on receiving your offer letter from the university! The next step in the process is to apply for your I-20 form, which is necessary for you to apply for your F-1 student visa.

Here is a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:

  1. Complete the I-20 application: We will send you an I-20 application that you will need to complete. This application will require personal information such as your full name, date of birth, and mailing address, as well as information about your academic program, funding sources, and any dependents who will accompany you.

  2. Provide financial documentation: To receive your I-20 form, you will need to demonstrate that you have sufficient funds to cover your tuition and living expenses while studying in the United States. This typically requires submitting financial documents such as bank statements or scholarship award letters.

  3. Submit the application and supporting documents: After completing the I-20 application and gathering all necessary supporting documents, submit them to our team. We will review your application and ensure that everything is in order.

  4. Pay the SEVIS fee: Once we have verified that your application is complete, you will need to pay the SEVIS fee. This fee is mandatory and must be paid before you can apply for your student visa.

  5. Apply for your student visa: With your I-20 form and SEVIS fee receipt, you can apply for your F-1 student visa at a U.S. embassy or consulate in your home country.

Please note that the application process and requirements may vary slightly by university and country, so be sure to check with our team for specific instructions and deadlines.
