How the Check Evaluates Your Profile

This test replicates the exact decision matrix used by American consular officers during interviews. We focus on the factors that decide your approval:

  • The 12 Month Rule: The most critical criterion for graduates. Being even one day past the deadline decides between success and rejection.
  • Academic Validation: We check if your educational institution is recognized in the USA for sponsorship.
  • Quality of Practical Experience: We filter whether your previous work meets the high requirements for Trainee status.

No Experiments with US Approval

Why is this pre screening so important? US sponsors often reject incomplete or incorrect requests without a second chance. We ensure your application is error free from the start. We do not deliver empty promises, but validated documents that meet the legal standards of the USA.

The Result:
As soon as the tool gives you the green light, the foundation for your US adventure is set. At this point, we take over the steering and lead you safely through the entire process until your visa is issued.

Your Goal: The DS 2019 Form

The DS 2019 is your entry token for the consulate and life in the USA. As the official entry point, we transform your data into this legally binding application. We keep you free from administrative burdens so you can focus on your team and your tasks in the USA.
