For many Indian students, preparing for a US student visa interview means memorizing details about their university, course, and future career plans. But according to former US diplomat Yvette Bansal, an unexpected question could catch applicants off guard and even impact the outcome of their visa interview.
Speaking about a recent F-1 visa interview experience shared by a student, Bansal explained why a seemingly casual question like “What would you do on a Saturday night in Boston?” may reveal more to a visa officer than applicants realize, according to a report in The Times of India.
