Applying for a student visa + my mom has a ban in the US will that affect me?

[Doves6]

Hi, I'm applying for a student Visa. My mother had a legal issue in the states a few years ago and before anything was settled we left the states. She has a ban to go back to the states. I was a child (11yrs olds) when all that happened and still to this day do not know the whole story. I was wondering if this could affect the chances of them approving my visa... ( we were in the country legally). If they ask me in the interview about my mom, what should I say? ( I still live with her)

It shouldn't be a problem and you should not lie. You were 11 at the time. You really shouldn't be expected to remember any details of her issue.

I agree.

I think you mean it shouldn't be a problem. If so, I agree.

I have no idea why I keep doing that.

Must be the heat.

Must be the heat.

Or the humidity.

Around here both.

Always tell the truth.

Just because some act will not prevent you from getting a visa, no visa - even those for study = is guaranteed.
