U.S. F-1 Visa Update: International Students Asked to Self-Deport

Posted on 31 Mar 2025



Recent reports highlight a concerning issue for international students in the U.S. on F-1 visas. Several students, particularly from India, have been asked to "self-deport" upon arrival, often due to visa-related concerns raised by U.S. immigration officials. Reasons include discrepancies in their travel history, university credibility, and visa interviews. Some students have even faced expedited removal, barring them from re-entering the U.S. for five years.

To avoid such complications, students should ensure their documentation is complete, their university is recognized, and they are prepared to answer immigration officers’ questions confidently. If you need assistance with student visa processing or documentation, our experts are here to help!
