The U.S. Mission to India updated its interview waiver eligibility criteria for Indian foreign nationals renewing visas at U.S. consular posts in India.
Key Points:
Additional Information: Applicants can submit a visa application and documentation for interview waiver processing at Visa Application Centers in New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Bengaluru and other locations that can be found here.
Individuals who have applied for visas and who have appointments to drop off their documentation for interview waiver processing may no longer qualify for an interview waiver. Foreign nationals are reminded to speak with their BAL team prior to international travel and to be aware of general travel requirements, including maintaining a valid visa in their passport.
Other U.S. embassies and consulates that may have updated their interview waiver eligibility criteria include but are not limited to Mexico, France and Japan. All Visa renewal applicants should check interview waiver criteria on their respective U.S. embassy or consulate’s website to confirm.
