The USA waives off mandatory visa interview for certain Visas
 |
From 1st September 2019, certain Indian visa candidates can apply for a waiver from the required visa interview. The US has reported the equivalent in an attempt to make the visa application process shorter for Indian candidates.
The US Consulate also stated that it intends to better the client assistance for visa candidates in India. It additionally aims to decrease the turnaround time for visa renewals.
Kids below 14 years and senior residents over 79 years applying for visa renewal can apply for a visa interview with a waiver. However, the renewal is subject to the candidates meeting specified conditions.
The US Consulate says that beginning from the first of September, qualified candidates for an interview waiver must schedule an appointment to drop their visa application documents and passport. In India, there are 11 locations to do this. An authority at the visa application center will check the records before accepting the delivery. Then they will send the reports to the US Embassy or the US Consulate, according to The Economic Times. Candidates will get a decision on their US visa application within 7 to 10 days of submitting their application.
However, candidates must know that in some cases, they might be called for a visa interview.
On the off chance that a candidate needs to appear for a visa interview, they should travel to the post where they submitted their interview waiver application. Your post can not be changed once you have submitted your application. Candidates will be informed on how to proceed further for the visa interview.
The US has visa application centers in India:
- New Delhi
- Kolkata
- Mumbai
- Hyderabad
- Chennai
- Jalandhar
- Chandigarh
- Kochi
- Ahmedabad
- Pune
