    Default Will Breaking a Lease During a Prior Stay Affect a Visa Application

    Dear forum members,

    Can anyone please evaluate if I will face any issue on getting F1 visa for US.

    I was on F1 visa during 2009 to 2011 for my master degree. then i was on H1B. but had to return back to home country on emergency.

    So had to break the apartment lease.

    Now am planning on returning to US for PhD program. Will I have issue with immigration because I broke apartment lease?

    regards.

    Don't think they will know or care unless there is some answered lawsuit over the issue.

    Contact the courts in the county in which you lived. The Clerk can check for you, or point you to the court's online records system if one is available.

    The USCIS won't be looking at your credit history or searching for civil judgments. If the USCIS is aware of a civil judgment, I suppose they might factor that into their assessment of your means to support yourself without working while present on a F1 visa, but I doubt that it would be an issue even if a judgment exists.
