With the intention of studying, job or walking in America, a question often arises in the minds of how much should the bank balance be at the time of visa interview? Is salary also checked? Answers to these questions depend completely on what kind of visa the person is taking. The needs of bank balance and income proof for different categories are different in the US visa system. Today we are going to give you all the information related to this.
How much should the bank balance be for F-1 student
If a student applies for higher education in America, that is, he wants a F-1 student visa, then first of all he has to prove that he has enough ability to bear the fees of the course and the expenses of staying for the whole year. For this, bank balance is generally considered necessary from Rs 20 lakh to Rs 30 lakh (about 25,000 to 35,000 US dollars). The visa officer can see documents of the last 6 months bank statement, fixed deposits, mutual funds or other savings. On the other hand, if a guardian or relative is lifting the expenses of the student’s education, then their income tax return and salary slip are also necessary.
What is necessary for B-1/B-2 visa
Talking about the B-1/B-2 visa taken for tourism or family travel, the applicant has to show that he has enough money to raise travel, hotels and other expenses. In this category, a balance ranging from 3 lakh to 7 lakh rupees is considered sufficient, but it is not necessary to check the salary. However, in the case of employed people, sometimes a visa officer can ask for a salary slip of the last few months or a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the employer. Although this information is based on media reports, the latest update of the concerned office and website will be valid.
