No applicant is initially required to present proof of sponsorship from someone who lives in the united states. A consular officer
may ask for proof of sponsorship at the time of interview, but not before that time. This is included in the 2NL. Now my question is
what are they trying to say here. Does this mean we should go with an affidavit of support to the interview coz it may be asked by
the consular officer or does it neccessarily mean we should not bother to provide one during the interview. I just feel the above statement
contradicts each other. Now what do you think?
Also I am single and still a student, so if affidavit of support is not needed any longer, what then do I need to provide to proof I won't
become a public charge or liability to the government. I asked this coz my brothers are ready to pay any amount into my account for here
, but my worry is that it could raise some alarm during the interview as in me proving how I came about the money since I'm still studying.
Any idea on these will be very much appreciated
