Overview
All applicants must make an appointment for the interview, except for: applicants qualified for Interview Waiver, certain applicants for diplomatic or official visas, and exchange visitor (J) visa applicants participating in a program sponsored by the U.S. Federal Government.

Required Documents
To schedule a nonimmigrant visa appointment, you must have the following information and documents available:

Taiwan passport holders and passport holders from certain countries may enter the United States with passports that will expire in less than 6 months. However, they will not be permitted to remain in the U.S. beyond the validity of their passports.;
- Your visa application (MRV) fee payment receipt;
- Your DS-160 confirmation page;

- If applicable, required documents based on visa class (such as a petition approval for petition-based visas; more information about visa types and information about each can be found here).
Restrictions to Changing Appointments
Applicants are limited to the number of times they can reschedule their appointments. Please plan accordingly so that you are not required to pay another visa application fee.
