I did not have any difficulties with them.

They did want to see photo of actual bank balance, not the screen shot from my phone. No seasoning was required. I did have a LOT more in the account than the minimum requirement.

It took about 2 weeks for a request for more information and another 2 weeks for the approval.

You will need to prove you are actually in their service area. I did this by turning on my maps app on my iPad and laying my driver’s license next to it and taking a picture with my iPhone.

Also make very very sure your name passport number and dates are correct. Their machine has trouble with the passport data page and makes mistakes reading it.

it’s unwise to diss the group experts…

Good luck.

Los Angeles Consulate did not require anything more than a flight number and date. No tickets….

I have mentioned this many times.

Unfortunately the machine messes up scanning the passport data page and can give wrong name, dates, digits etc.

This is an automatic FAIL.

We all need to carefully review what gets populated into the data fields at this part of the application.

Spend the money and try again…..

Thank you for sharing your name and your positive experience

Here is your justice, and it’s not very nice.

This issue is discussed DAILY in the forums. Any errors of dates, name , spelling etc are AUTOMATIC FAILURE from the computer.

It must match your passport data page.

Sorry…….do your homework.
