The advisory also reiterated the importance of responsible behaviour, urging students to be cautious while studying, working, or living in the country. “Follow the rules and don’t jeopardize your travel,” the embassy stated, highlighting that a US visa is a privilege, not a right.
The warning comes amid heightened scrutiny of immigration compliance in the United States. Over recent years, US authorities have intensified monitoring of visa holders to ensure adherence to local laws, employment regulations, and enrollment requirements.
International students are expected to comply with all conditions of their visa, including full-time enrollment, restricted work permissions, and avoidance of any criminal activity.
For Indian students, the embassy’s advisory serves as a reminder that a US student visa is conditional. Even minor violations could have serious consequences, potentially affecting not only the current stay but also future travel and study opportunities.
Staying informed about legal obligations, maintaining compliance with visa rules, and exercising caution can help students safeguard their education and long-term prospects in the United States.
