USA VISITOR VISA

Application process for a USA Visitor Visa, also known as a B-2 visa, involves several steps:

• Submitting Fees and Forms for Non-immigrant Visa Applications: All applicants in the non-immigrant visa category must pay an application fee along with the VFS service charge. However, officials traveling for government business or on behalf of international organizations are exempt from this payment. We facilitate the submission of your fees and forward your visa applications. Please note that this fee is non-refundable. Upon fee submission, you will receive a visa fee receipt, essential for proceeding to the next step of the application process.
• Completing Forms and Scheduling Visa Appointments: Within two business days of fee submission, a visa fee receipt is generated. We then assist in scheduling your visa interview appointment. Our experienced immigration team guides you through accurately filling essential immigration forms, including DS-156, DS-157, and DS-158 if applicable.
• Attending the Visa Interview: You'll be required to attend a visa interview at the U.S. consulate or embassy. Our immigration specialists prepare you for these interviews, ensuring all necessary documents are in order to minimize the risk of refusal. Rest assured, applying through Visa Bridge minimizes refusal risks, as we maximize our resources to smooth the approval process. Essential items to carry include barcode stickers, the original fee payment receipt, a recent passport-size photo, printed appointment letter, and any necessary drafts.
• Passport Delivery via Courier: Successful visa applicants' passports are temporarily retained by the visa officer for stamping. These passports are then couriered via VFS and delivered to your postal address within seven days of the interview.

Reasons for Refusal of USA Tourist Visa Applications

• Inadequate Documentation: Failure to provide sufficient evidence of financial stability, ties to the home country, or purpose of travel can lead to a visa refusal.
• Lack of Strong Ties: whether applicants have significant ties to their home country, such as employment, property ownership, or family relationships. Insufficient evidence of strong ties may result in a refusal.
• Inconsistent or Incomplete Information: Any inconsistencies or incomplete information in the visa application or during the interview process can raise doubts about the applicant's credibility and lead to a refusal.
• Travel History: A lack of previous international travel or a history of overstaying visas in other countries can negatively impact the visa application, as it may raise concerns about the applicant's intentions.
• Immigration Intent: whether applicants have the intention to immigrate to the USA permanently. If an applicant is unable to demonstrate strong ties to their home country or a clear intention to return after the visit, the visa may be refused.
• Security Concerns: Applicants who have a criminal record or are deemed to pose a security risk may be refused a visa.
• Medical Inadmissibility: Certain medical conditions that could pose a public health risk or require extensive medical treatment in the USA may result in a visa refusal.
• Lack of Genuine Purpose: the purpose of travel and may refuse visas if they suspect the applicant's intentions are not genuine, such as using a tourist visa for purposes other than tourism.
