U.S. citizens who want to apply for their family members to come here can now file their petitions online through the new ‘filing online’ application, which is now available on the official site of the USCIS. The Dependent Visa For Us was introduced in 2009 to reduce the burden on U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), which has been swamped with a huge backlog of paper filings that has caused years of delays in approving visa applications.

In the present time, people have to move from one place to another. Sometimes they have to leave the country for some reason or the other. And if you are someone who has accompanied your spouse in moving, then the dependent visa is applicable to you. But, unfortunately, there are many people who do not hold full proof documents for their eligibility criteria for applying for dependent visas. Besides that, many of them do not know how long it will take for them to receive their visas. Moreover, there are some who don’t even believe in the service quality of these companies, who provide these services.

Dependent Visa For Us

These are the main reasons why people cannot depend on these companies for getting their visas processed. All of these issues can be solved by giving all their trust to 3fe Immigration Services- one of the best companies that provide this particular service 24/7 without fail, and with unmatched service quality.

BRINGING A DEPENDENT TO THE U.S.

An international student may be accompanied to the U.S. by their dependent(s) at any time. Dependents are defined as spouses and/or unmarried minor children. Children over the age of 21 are not eligible to enter as the dependent of an international student (F-1 or J-1 student). An international student’s dependents may apply for their F-2 or J2 visas at the same time that the international student applies for an F-1 or J-1 visa, or they may apply for their F-2 or J-2 visas at a later date. If they are granted the visa, they may enter the United States when the international student does, or they may enter the U.S. at a later date.

If you wish to bring a dependent to the U.S. please contact ISS to learn what information you need to submit to request a dependent I-20 or DS-2019. It is important to determine whether you have sufficient funds to support yourself and your dependents. The University of Wisconsin requires proof of funds that range between $5,000-$7,000 for a spouse and $6,000-$7,000 for each child in order to prepare the dependent I-20 or DS-2019(s). Such proof of funding is required because the U.S. government necessitates that all international students and their dependents present proof of financial resources.

• If your family members are abroad and you want them to join you in the US, please complete the  and submit it with the required documents listed on the form.
• If your family members are already in the US on another type of visa and you wish to change their status to F-2 or J-2, you should meet with an ISS advisor during walk-in advising. In some cases it may not be possible to change status while in the US or there may be deadlines to consider.
• Children born in the United States are US citizens. As such, they are ineligible for F-2 or J-2 status. ISS will not include family members who are US citizens in your documentation.

Note: Please make your requests in a timely manner. ISS strives to complete your requests as soon as possible, but processing may take several weeks. Keep this in mind when making an appointment to apply for visa stamps at an US Embassy/Consulate, booking airline tickets, or meeting deadlines to change status in the US.
