Hi, does the number of asterisk on an immigrant visa have any relevance or significance?

 

I found a post which mentioned that, the number of asterisk (*) on each visa determines how much of a risk the passport/visa holder is due to their nationality, sex, age, previous countries visited,etc...

 

Why would anyone be granted a VISA if the officer believes the applicant is a security threat?

It's a conspiracy theory.

Another theory I read before said it's just reflecting the printer number that was used for printing visa. 

Science is not a liberal conspiracy.
