    The "been there done that" thread: life in the US after DV

    If it’s just you it’s more than enough to prove funding at the interview. I wasn’t asked about financials at the interview but the guy before me was so I guess it just depends on the officer.

    Was able to set up a savings account and cheque account with the Bank of America yesterday. Easy peasy and the app is really good too. US bank wasn’t interested in letting me open one till I was a resident for 90 days.
