USA Visa Appointment Booking
The current situation has created significant apprehension among students regarding their study abroad plans. Although it is not completely unfounded, things are looking up, especially for the USA visa appointments. We have reached a point where every stakeholder is making a collective effort to ensure that you are on your way to fulfilling your abroad education aspirations.
The US Consulate has now extended its appointment booking process to include both online and on-call appointment booking options. This is definitely a move in the positive direction. It is also essential for aspirants to keep in mind that both these options may not provide immediate results, owing to the sheer volume of people trying to book their appointment dates.
What is important in such a situation is to stay positive and have patience. With the kind of arrangements being made at the official end, we are sure of positive outcomes for all. At this point, we need to intelligently approach the situation keeping in mind the limitations of the process.
Online Appointment Booking: It is recommended that students limit checking the website to just twice or thrice a day. Continually checking for slots will result in you being blocked from the site for 72 hours, which is not something we want!
Call Center Appointment Booking: In addition to checking for slots online twice/thrice in a day, it is recommended you try the center number during their prescribed working hours, Monday-Friday 8:00 am to 5:00 pm IST and Sunday from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm IST. The center is closed on Saturdays as specified on the official website.
With the reassurance given by the US Consulate on opening up appointment slots keeping in mind the pressing student concerns, we are certain that things will pick up and stabilize soon.
