US Visa Applications Must Be Submitted from Country of Residence or Nationality


Effective immediately, the Department of State has updated its instructions for all nonimmigrant visa applicants scheduling visa interview appointments: - Applicants for U.S. nonimmigrant visas (NIV) should schedule their visa interview appointments at the U.S.

Nationals of countries where the U.S. government is not conducting routine nonimmigrant visa operations must apply at the designated embassy or consulate, unless their residence is elsewhere. Fees: Applicants who schedule nonimmigrant interviews at a U.S. embassy or consulate outside of their country of nationality or residence might find that it will be more difficult to qualify for the visa. Applicants applying outside their country of nationality or residence should expect to wait significantly longer for an appointment.
