Do you need a Visa to travel to the United States?

The first step if you are from a foreign country is to find out if you need a visa to enter the United States. The primary nonimmigrant visa for tourism or business is the B1/B2 visa, and the main document for visa-exempt countries is the US ESTA. You can easily use the iVisa Visa Checker to verify which documents you need for the trip.

Otherwise, a visa applicant who needs a long-term document for permanent residence, work, or study should consult the embassy to obtain more information.

US visa appointment schedule: Step-by-step guide on how to get a visa appointment

You can count on the iVisa B1/B2 Guided Visa Application service to get your visa hassle-free. With iVisa you will receive a guide manual with all the steps to prepare yourself for the in-person interview with the consular officers. Plus, an exclusive visa expert will give you instructions to schedule an appointment and help you with any questions about the visa interview appointment.

Here are some helpful tips for scheduling an appointment and preparing yourself for the visa interview.

Don’t forget the list of documents that you will have to present

You must provide some information while filling out the B1/B2 visa application form, also known as DS-160 form. In your visa application appointment, you must bring the documents proving the details you submitted on the application form. It is crucial that all the information matches for your U.S. visa approval.

Opting for the iVisa B1/B2 Guided Visa Application, you will have an exclusive visa expert to review all your documents before the appointment to guarantee government compliance and ensure everything is correct. Your iVisa expert will also provide the documents list that you must present to the consular officer and all instructions for the appointment according to the requirements for your nonimmigrant visa.

You must carry the following documents with you on the interview appointment date:

  • DS-160 form

  • Valid passport (with at least six months validity)

  • Appointment confirmation

  • Previous passports

  • Provide proof of residence

  • Two color passport-style photos

  • Other supporting documents if applicable

Choose a US Embassy or Consulate

You will have to choose an embassy or consulate for your interview. You can select the nearest consular section; however, it is important to consider that some cities have more demand than others, meaning some consulates can take longer to get appointments.

Pay the Visa Application Fee

The American B1/B2 visa has a standard government fee of USD 160.00. Applying with iVisa, the B1/B2 Guided Visa Application already includes the costs of government and service fee.

Schedule a Nonimmigrant Visa Appointment

Counting on the B1/B2 Visa Guided Application service, you will receive detailed instructions to schedule your U.S. visa appointment online.

If you prefer to do the process by yourself, you must access the US embassy website and create a profile. Then, you will choose the visa type, complete some information and pay the visa fee. After that, you will be able to schedule the appointment.

Visa applicants: Prepare for the Interview

All your effort to accurately fill out the DS-160 form and gather documents will have been in vain if you don’t have a successful interview. That is why preparing for this final visa application step is so important.

With iVisa’s B1/B2 Visa Guided Application, you will receive a detailed manual, including instructions about the dress code, documents, probable questions, and how to answer them. But, in general, the US government interviews applicants as potential immigrants. So, you must prove to the officer that you don’t intend to stay in the US and have reasons to return to your home country.
