Delivery fee refunds
If the U.S. Embassy does not approve your visa and no passport delivery was required, GTS will reimburse you for the amount paid for the home delivery service. Applicants must send an e-mail to refunds@gtspremium.com along with their DS-160 number within 5 business days of the Visa refusal. Refunds do not apply for deliveries that were not made because the applicant was not available at the time of delivery.
Check the Status of Your Visa
You can check the status of your application any time at this website:
https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx. Please wait at least three business days following your visa interview to check on the status of your application. The system may not have updated the status of your application prior to that time, and thus the message you receive may not reflect the actual status of your application.
