How We Work?
Since 2018, we’ve been helping clients prepare their documents correctly and increase approval chances through strategic planning
We choose the visa category that fits you personally, prepare your admission to a language school or university, fill out the required forms (DS-160, I-539, registration forms, etc.), thoroughly verify all information, and assemble your document package.
Selection & Preparation
Submission & Support
Consultation & Request
We schedule a call, discuss your situation, and determine the optimal route considering your goals, deadlines, and budget.

We instruct you on entering the USA and/or legally changing your status. In case of status change, we provide full support until approval, and even afterwards.
Our team communicates with educational institutions on your behalf, books your visa interview appointment, and conducts mock interviews with possible questions and sample answers.

Client Stories
Said
He reached out together with his wife: she already had a U.S. tourist visa, while he had five consecutive refusals. But we decided to try for the sixth time.
We completed the application accurately, gathered all the necessary documents, and thoroughly prepared him for every possible interview question.
He was approved for a 10-year tourist visa.
She received a one-year visa (the maximum duration for Russian citizens).
SOFIA
During her studies, she decided to apply for a bachelor's degree.
She came with the goal of improving her English and enrolled in language courses in New York.
She was admitted to The New School (Parsons) for the Fine and Studio Arts program, where we helped her secure a scholarship of $11,000 per year.
After returning to Astana, she obtained another one-year visa.
Juliana
She reached out with an expiring visa and a tight deadline — she wanted to make it to New York in time for her birthday.
A Russian citizen with a European residence permit.
Within two weeks, we found the earliest available appointment — in Spain, without an interview.
Thanks to our preparation, she submitted her documents and received a three-year visa.
Asel
Our close friend who had been dreaming of America for many years.
But she was denied the visa at the interview, and we were very upset.
A citizen of Kazakhstan.
Without hesitation, we scheduled her for a second application. We didn’t change anything — even the documents stayed exactly the same.

We prepared a strong case, but there was another refusal despite a solid profile (high salary, job in London).
The client was ready to give up, but we insisted on making one more attempt — this time in London.
ZHADYRA
She reached out requesting a consultation.
During our conversation, it turned out that she had previously been denied a tourist visa.
During our conversation, it turned out that she had previously been denied a tourist visa.

Fully online programs are not permitted for F-1 students. Some colleges may allow partial online study, but the majority must be attended in person on campus.
SEVIS is an immigration fee required for student visas (F-1, J-1, M-1). It’s used to register and track international students via the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
Not at all. You can reapply and try again. The key is understanding why you were denied and fixing it in future submissions. Remember, the human factor also influences the officer’s decision.
The I-20 is issued by your U.S. school or university after admission. Without it, you cannot apply for an F-1 visa.
“U.S. visa” and “100% guarantee” don’t go together. Many factors affect the decision, including luck and the consul’s mood.

Yes, we can help if that’s all you need.
Unofficially, yes. Applicants who have traveled to the EU, UK, Canada, Japan, New Zealand, or Australia often get U.S. visas more easily. This shows you previously respected visa rules and returned home proving you’re a traveler, not an immigrant.
If you’ve been outside the U.S. for over 5 months, check with the U.S. Embassy to confirm if your visa is still valid. Otherwise, you’ll just need a new I-20 to enter with your F-1 visa.
Unlike Schengen visa applications, this is not required. Just provide intended travel dates.
Options include: changing to student status, applying for EB-1/EB-2, marrying a U.S. citizen/resident, seeking asylum, or investing in the U.S. economy. We’ll guide you through every step.
Important: Do this before your current status expires.

After the program, you may apply to change status (F-1, J-1 trainee/intern, asylum, or another legal status). We’ll help determine the best path and process it correctly.
Important: Contact us before your program ends.

No. A visa is for crossing the border; legal status allows you to stay in the U.S. Status can be changed while inside the country, but a new visa can only be obtained through a U.S. consulate.
Yes! A bank account setup, health insurance, driver’s license application, choosing a mobile carrier, and more. Assistance with housing/employment possible upon request.
