The US Embassy in India announced on Sunday that in-person visa appointments will be resumed in India beginning in September 2022.
It is important to note that applicants applying for US visas must be present in person for an interview with the US Embassy in India.
The Embassy added that all appointment placeholders have been canceled and that those who had placeholder appointments can now access the scheduling system to make regular appointments, which are open until 2023.
The B1 Visa, also known as B2, is a visa that is temporary for those who wish to visit America. The United States for business and leisure. This visa is granted for a one-year maximum duration of validity.
While it is true that a US B1 Visa is suitable for business travel, however, the B1/B2 visa can be applied for both leisure and tourism reasons. The B1/B2 visa can also be called the B2 visa, or the US Visa for Visitors.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic that was spreading, Covid-19 was a major cause of death. US Embassy in India had stopped conducting interviews for B1-B2 visas beginning in March 2020. This announcement that they will resume tourist visa interviewing comes as an immense relief for many Indians who were forced to put travel plans put on hold for a few months.
I have got a confirmation appointment for b1/b2 in January-2023 I want to know whether in that month it’s a placeholder or a regular appointment.
