我的背景：国内大四本科在读，去学FE，曾赴美两次，一次J2（3个月）一次J1（1年）
本来以为会很轻松，谁知。。。面我的VO是4号窗口的，戴花框眼镜。（据说不是glass boy）
打招呼按指纹后：
vo: So you've been to US before?
me: Yeah, twice.
vo: show me your previous visa.
me: (take out my old visa) there you go.
vo: where's your dad now? (我第一次去美国是去看我爸，当时他在美国做访问学者）
me: in china, xx university, as a prof. of finance
vo: ok. where will you study?
me: univ. of xx, i'll be studying financial engineering
vo: oh, financial engineering. (look at my offer letter) what's your current major?
me: finance
vo: but i see on your DS-167 that your major is finance/atmospheric sciences
me: oh, i studied atmospherics sciences for the first two years, and switched my major to finance in my junior year.
vo: that's not normal in china
me: well, my univ. rule allows 5% of students to change their majors.
vo: ok. it shows on your i-20 that it is an expensive 2-year program. How do you pay for the tuition?
me: my parents will sponsor my study. we all think it a good investment and my family has a steady cash flow. you wanna take a look at my certificate of deposit and my dad's tax-bill?
vo: sure. you dad can make xxx,xxx rmb per year?! that's not normal for professors
me: not normal? i think it's quite normal. other professors of his level get paid this amount in the B-School
vo: no, it's not normal. why's he paid so much?
me: well, he's in charge of the xxx program, which brings him a bonus of xx,xxx annually. and he teaches various kinds of classes.
此vo继续和我扯皮n分钟。。。大意就是要我给出我父亲教授的课程和课时，我说没有，只是举了几个课程的例子。然后还问了我妈妈的工资，总之就是纠缠资金来源问题。
后来。。。
me: he's also the independent director of two listed companies. (showed him the evidence)
vo: no no.. you must provide the original contract.
me: don't have it. ok, just put that aside. the tax-bill is real, and it shows he earns enough to support me.
vo: well, that will cost him every single penny he earns for the next two years.
me: see, that's investment, you'll get good return on that. we still have enough money in the bank and stock market（拿出更多的存折和股票交易记录）
vo: the name on the certificate is not right. that's not your dad.
me: of course not. that's my mom!
vo: how can she earn so much if she only get x,xxx yuan per month?
me: well, my dad earns the money, and my mom took it to the bank and deposited. so the money is under her name
vo: ok. the name is not right (指着我给他的我爸爸的名片的英文和税单上的中文名）
me: （你这不是胡搅蛮缠么）they're the same name. given name goes first in pinyin.
vo: 嘟囔了一句，没听清
我这时候已经要崩溃了。。。幸亏这个时候光头gg出现了~和这个vo开始说话，麦克风被关掉了，我趁机调整了一下呼吸。光头gg走开后：
vo: why your dad's income is not the same every month?
me: basically, he only get the same amount of basic salary. as i mentioned, his salary varies if he teaches different classes.
vo: that's not normal. the university pays you the same amount to teach certain courses.
me: that only applies to some classes. for example, it is different for MBA and EMBA classes.
又开始纠缠上课的问题。我原来怎么答还是怎么答。最后问不出什么结果了
vo: then why the tax rate is different?
me: cuz he earns different amount of money every months! the tax rate varies as the income changes. there are several levels for tax, same as in US
vo: then why the rate for xx,xxx is only 20%?
me: becuase it's paid as bonus at the end of each year. for bonus, like dividends, you only pay 20%.
vo: ok... 开始对着税单敲数字 i'll grant you the visa this time, but i don't believe you
me: (shrugged) well, you should, all my documents are real
vo: (shaked head) no. i don't believe you. i think there's some creative accounting, but i can't see through the math. go to No.12.
me: (shaked head) well, thanks. nice day.
我这时候真想抽丫的
总结：
- 这个vo多半开始就没想让我过。但我有良好的记录证明没有移民倾向，所以就从资金方面下手
- 父母是公务员或者教师的同志们都要注意，把资金证明做的越细越好。比如上什么课，多少课时，每课时的报酬是多少都给出来。还要多准备一些资金，表明家里还有余力。
- 回答问题的时候一定要不卑不亢，该顶撞就要顶撞vo，否则vo反而得寸进尺。碰到tough的vo，眼神一定要坚定。反正我是直勾勾的盯着他的。
