Form this information you have given, I don't see any reason why your had that rejection. Anyways as you have ed another scanned copy of your i-20, kindly create a ticket also concerning this issue. They might give you a logic reason why you had the rejection

Yes I created a ticket, but they said they are not able to give a reason why it was rejected

kharemorgan:


When is your resumption date?

Did you sign your i-20 before ing?

Have you paid your servis fee?

Did you a very clear copy of your i-20?

My resumption date is 23rd of January
Yes, I signed my I 20
And yes I’ve paid my SEVIS fee
Concerning ing clear copy of the I 20 ( I snapped it, i did not scan)

But i’ve just ed it again. I’ve scanned it clearly and I’ve ed it again just now.

And can this also be the cause of the rejection…. On my DS 160 form, the date of arrival i put there is 20th and I still put the same date as date of travel when they asked on the AVITS website I.e before the pre approval stage

Hello, good evening. Please I’ve been stucked in the pre approval stage for almost a month but i recently received a rejection mail from the embassy saying that my pre approval request was rejected and they didn’t state any reasons. Though I faced an issue when ing my I 20… my I 20 document was about 62mb and i ed it that way, I was not aware about it until i ed it. So now I really don’t know the next step I should take, I’ve chatted the service but they’re saying I should create ticket, please what can I do about this and could it be that it was that error i encountered with the I 20 that made my pre approval request got rejected? And please what’s the required size for the I 20 document when ing. I’ll patiently await your kind response and guidance…thanks .
