I prepared for my visa interview based on the information you provided, and I got my visa approved! I was interviewed with an honest and respectful attitude and also wore my suit. Even though few people wore suits, I think wearing one gave the officer a good impression. Thank you so much! 😊
Fantastic! Safe travels :)

Mandy, you have a very calming voice and the way you present yourself is amazing! I'm not planning to move to the US I just stumbled upon your video while I was going through some job interview videos. I just followed you on LinkedIn and read you're also an immigration attorney. It would be interesting to listen to topics related to your expertise and experience- just an idea!

and make sure to wear comfy shoes. There is a good chance you will have to stand for a couple of hours depending on the embassy.
that's a big one. also, keep your posture. after standing in lines for so long, you might feel tired and tend to slouch.

Hi Mandy ,
I am wondering if you could reply me . If anyone live in aboard with resident permit status , does his spouse can join visa interview with him when spouse had visit visa status ? It would be an issue to gain us visa ? Category : Eb3
Hey Mandy,
Can we wear a formal one piece which has knee covered in black Colour for an visa interview? Since I have been seeing everyone wearing T-shirt and pant so I wonder wearing a formal one piece would create a problem in visa interview?
hey MANDY , thank you for all your advices i get my visa approved yesterday , i was looking at the visa officer like if i was looking at your face hhhhh , i have a simple curious question , they gave me 2 weeks to get my visa printed , if there any cases where can approval visa turn to denial before printing on passeport ?
Ms Mandy my petition was approved more than 20 years ago but I decided to stay. Next year I'm planning to apply for tourist visa. I need your advice . Thank you.
Hello Mandy, thank you for this video, my husband is f1 visa holder, me and my children are f2…. Please i need your advice🙏🏻 shall we go for interview together or book our interview appointment separately, after f1 holder has been approved?
Please officer, I really want to know. What do I have to put on as a student, studying business administration and management general? I have an F1 visa interview next week. Please enlighten me more on this. Thank you.
Please make a video on j2 visa selection criteria. Does duration of stay matters? For example if spouse (j1) leave earlier for 1 year j1 program and then j2 applies after 6 months and visa officer denied the visa telling spouse has only few months left in the us.
Please make a video Mandy
Hello ma'am your videos are very informative like always ma'am I wanted to know that do we have to put the same address like passport in out address section in ds160 or we can put the current address?

Hey Mandy. Please could you make a video on study gaps?

Hello Mandy I'm a crew member my joining date was 30 April 2023 but my interview date is August 31 what should I do incase they ask me at the embassy
As a reverend minister, I dressed in my clerical shirt and a nice suits to confirm my vocation and my real identity on file. The visa officer honourably gave me the needed reverence by asking me only one question for my visa approval.
May God bless her and her family forever.
Thanks for sharing!
Hi Mandy.. what type of outfit would you suggest for k1 fiancé visa.
Does the mood of the VO determine the outcome of the interview? I mean if a VO is angry before coming to work that day, can that affect your visa or there is a checklist that all VOs follow to decide?
