My elder sister is 14 years older than me and she is a house-wife but his husband is deputy secretary of LGRD ministry. And my younger brother is a businessman and he is 12 years older than me.

VO smiled and pretended to give me a white paper( rejection paper) but then he gave me the blue leaflet and congratulate me with a big smile.

VO listened all my words carefully!

I am sharing my experience elaborately because I believe it will help others to get prepared.

Be Transparent and Confident .

N.B:⛔ You must notice your gesture, way of talking, eye contact.

👉Be confident

নার্ভাস হয়ে গেলেই ওরা বুঝে যায়।তখন ভিসা পাওয়ার সম্ভাবনা খুব কম থাকে।

আর যারা প্রশ্ন করেন যে ভিসার রেশিও কেমন তাদের উদ্দেশ্য একটা কথাই বলবো ভিসার রেশিও ভালো বা খারাপ এটা জেনে আপনি কি করবেন?এতো নেগেটিভ চিন্তা নিয়ে চলতে পারবেন না।পুরো Interview টা ডিপেন্ড করে আপনার নিজের প্রেজেন্টেশন এর উপরে।আপনার ভিসা হওয়া বা না হওয়াতে ভিসা অফিসারের কোন হাত নেই।

Ds-160 ফর্ম যেভাবে ফিলাপ করেছেন সেই অনুযায়ী Interview তে বলতে হবে।কারণ ওদের কাছে থাকে শুধু আপনার ds-160 & I-20 ফর্ম।এর বাইরে কিছু বললে ওরা রিজেক্ট করে দেয়।আর আপনি এই দুটোর বাইরে যে যে ইনফরমেশন তাদের বলবেন তারা তা বুঝবে না।কারণ তারা এ সম্পর্কে তেমন কিছু জানবে না।কিন্তু চুপ করে থাকলে হবে না।কথা বলতে হবে।আপনি প্রশ্নের উত্তর না জানলেও বুঝতে দিবেন না যে আপনি জানেন না উত্তরটা।আপনি বলে আসবেন।

👉Be smart (but don't try to be over smart)

The Important thing is don’t forget to Pray.

Remember one thing " শীঘ্রই তোমার রব তোমাকে এতো দিবে যে তুমি খুশি হয়ে যাবে।"( সূরা আদ দূহা)

Don’t loose hope.

Good Luck people!!!
