Student Visa (F1, F2, M1, M2)

I would like post my experience, we went through for my wife as she got her Visa from H4 to F1. To give some background, Initially she came to US on H4, as we decided to pursue further studies for her and secured an admission, she needed an F1 visa because obviously F1 has its own benefits.

We chose the path to go back to India and get a F1 stamp instead of doing COS here with USCIS and waiting for about 3-6 months. So here’s her Visa Interview experience at Mumbai Consulate.

She: Good morning, How are you?
VO: I am fine, how are you, Good morning.
She: Handed over Passport, I-20, SEVIS Fee Receipt
