Sep  21st 2019 Update : F1 Visa Renewal Stamping in Nuevo Laredo -visa interview questions

VO: Good morning, do you work
Me: Yes mam, I do work for 20 hrs a work
VO: where do you work?
I work on-campus as an Graduate research assistant.
VO went through my docs and said “Is it? But I don’t see a work authorization notice or card?”
It is printed on my i-20 mam and I’m allowed to work 20hrs a week on campus
VO: Ohh you are a student and you are here to renew your visa?
Do you have enough funding to study ?
Can I look at your funding/sponsor documents?

I was about to explain while I also tried pulling my funding agreement when the VO immediately looked at my i-20 and said “no need,
I have this info here on your i-20. So, your program is fully funded by the university, very good”.
And then came those words I’m waiting to hear “your visa is approved.
It will be ready by 2.15 pm. We had a server issue yesterday and so there is little delay.
But most likely ur passport will be ready today. I replied thank you mam and left the counter.

I didn’t have time to pay for i-94 online but it wouldn’t have mattered as there was no officer at the i-94.
First the officer at port of entry looked at my passport, visa and asked to stand in a different Queue for the i-94.
Every now n then an officer appears, say they need more time to attend us and go back inside.
An hour passed and finally the officer saw us.
She’s an young female officer asked ‘which uni are you going to?’ I replied.
‘You are a student, going to study? Yes mam
When is your course starting?
Started last August. I completed my first year, currently in 2nd year.
Then she went thru my old passport which is attached to the new one “my bad, you renewed your F-1 visa. I should have looked at it clearly”.
She started writing the i-94 card and casually asked what is my research topic etc. All done and I was on US side by 1.40.
The whole experience was very pleasant, not even the slightest challenge anywhere. Officers at the consulate and the port of entry were very pleasant n welcoming.
I did carry US dollars in cash and coins and used credit cards in Mexico.

Docs I carried:
Originals:
1. Passport – New and Old with valid US & Mexican visas
2. All i-20’s
4. SSN Card (Not mandatory)
5. Driving License
6. Degree, Mark Sheets and all other educational Certificates including IELTS & GRE
7. PhD funding agreement, employment confirmation letter from Uni, Visa request letter from Uni
8. Uni I’d card

Photo Copies
1. My husband and my W2 (last 2 years)
2. Joint Tax fillings (last 2 years)
3. Both of ours paystubs (Jan till date)
4. Bank balance certificates (Jan till date)
5. Bank Statements
6. My spouse H-1 approval
7. My most recent I94
5. Marriage certificate
6. Utility Bills & rental agreement ( for just in case, someone was asked at the port of entry)
8. Resume & all my publications till date
