If you are planning to travel to the United States and live in a country that requires a Visa, we urge to apply for one as early as possible. Below are suggestions to help you secure a Visa.

  1. Apply at the appropriate location at least 5 months before intended travel. You can check on-line for the wait times for appointments.
  2. Be accurate and specific in completing your application. Avoid mistakes. If needed, attach an additional explanation letter.
  3. Attach evidence of your previous visits to the United States and of your intended return trip to your home country.
  4. Acquire a police clearance, if possible.
