If Any turkish people out there or whoever had a turkish person come to visit them could share there experience about proving the money to go and interview and which documents were asked and such would be greatly helpful :D I really wonder when you give them the statement from the bank stating that if you have 10k dollars or whatever in your bank and you have the paper that states that then will they believe it or will they call or need another paper? Like will they just take a look and then move onto the next question?

thanks!

Hi There,

Are you an I-129 F or an IR-1/CR-1? Here are some links that provide step by step instructions. What money for the interview do you speak of? If you are an I-129F, I know that typically once the consulate contacts you to schedule the interview date they will provide you instructions on how to make the payment, usually done at a TEB (Turkish Economic Bank) and then the receipt of payment is taken to the interview. If you are an IR-1/CR-1, then the majority of the fees will be paid once requested from you by the NVC. They will send you e-mails with instructions and invoices to make the payments. If you are referring to the money needed to go to the interview, my suggestion would be to set aside about $ 400 for the medical examination (it can be costly if your significant other has not had the required vaccinations)

If you can tell me more information about what case you are filing for I can give you some more information. In the mean time, you can utilize these websites to obtain much of the information you need.

Thanks

I believe she is talking about the regular tourist visa which to be approved for you need to show a certain amount of money in a bank account that belongs to the petitioner to cover all expenses while their stay in the states. I dont know the name of the form.

Well, not for a tourist visa but for the F-1 student visa you have to do similar things such as have enough funds in your account to cover your expenses and I heard from someone that they do actually call and check with the bank sometimes to make sure the funds are available, and that person apparently removed all the funds from the account before the call took place and when the consulate called there was no money there obviously and he/she got rejected. And another one was rejected because he didnt have enough in there, and he went back after putting more money in there and was approved. Honestly, I know most people who have no chance of actually acquiring that much money on their own just borrow money from friends and family to show in the account for about a week or two or tops a month, and then just return the money to rightful owners. If this is something he can do,I think it would be the best way. If I remember correctly, this is the fella with the farm, maybe he can take out some credit showing the farm and have his brother immediately pay the credit with the credit money once he arrives here. And dont forget about the fact that he needs to show ties to Turkiye, be it the farm or school or someother work.

If Any turkish people out there or whoever had a turkish person come to visit them could share there experience about proving the money to go and interview and which documents were asked and such would be greatly helpful :D I really wonder when you give them the statement from the bank stating that if you have 10k dollars or whatever in your bank and you have the paper that states that then will they believe it or will they call or need another paper?
