10 Interview Error for US Visa
The visa interview is the most important part of the entire process. A successful interview may have the biggest impact on your visa decision.
The following are the most common mistakes people make during an interview.
1. Not prepared for the interview
Preliminary study and preparation of answers to frequently asked questions will play you a good service during the interview.
2. Providing incomplete and false information
It is very important to provide complete and reliable information. Any false or half hidden information may cause unnecessary delay or even failure. False information may seriously affect the future receipt of a US visa.
3. Providing incomplete documentation
It is necessary to collect all the requested documents with complete and accurate information. Read all the links and prepare all the documents accordingly. Keeping well-organized documentation can also leave a positive impression on the consular officer.
4. No payment of the appropriate fee
US Consulates have strict forms of payment. Make sure you know the form and the exact amount of the appropriate payment. For example, most US consulates do not accept cash as a payment method and would prefer individual bank receipts that confirm payment.
5. Providing unnecessary additional information
Do not provide any information voluntarily if you are not asked to. Very often, people try to seem more confident and intelligent by answering questions in more detail than necessary. This may cause additional related issues not in your favor.
For example:
Question: Why do you want to go to the USA?
Wrong answer: I want to see what the United States is and if I like it, I want to go back with my son.
Preferred answer: For tourist purposes and / or spend some time with my son / daughter.
6. Contradictory information
Inconsistency in the information that is specified in the documents, so that you say during the interview, can play against you.
7. Dispute with consular officer
Never argue with a consular officer. If you want to know some information, ask in a polite manner.
8. Too little communication
Poor communication is the number one cause that can negatively affect the decision to issue a visa. If you do not speak English well, you should ask for a translator.
9. Too much communication (talk too much)
Answer the questions asked briefly and accurately. Speak only when you are asked.
10. Nervousness
If you are confident and not nervous, you are more likely to get a satisfactory answer. Note that a consular officer must rely on a limited amount of information provided by you. His decision depends largely on how you respond to questions on the "body language".
