Does the U.S. Embassy accept guarantees of financial support for NIV applications?
Evidence of finances may include bank books, income tax certificates, certificate of employment/business registration or proof of scholarship. While we highly recommend that you submit evidence of your financial situation to help us determine your compelling social and economics ties to Korea, such documents are not required to apply for an NIV. No NIV decision is based solely on an applicant’s finances. When determining eligibility for a visa, economic, family and social ties are evaluated collectively. Guarantees of financial support from persons other than the applicant may have little bearing on a visitor visa application.
