S4 Q&A: I can't show the full financial amount - what are my options?
Common routes: combine several accounts, add a sponsor (family or a close friend) with the school's affidavit of support, include accounts in your home country, or - where your school accepts them - an official loan approval or an employer sponsorship letter. Every document must be genuine and current. If none of these will be ready by the school's deadline, tell your consultant now - especially if your SEVIS record has already moved.
