    @mridulsingh1 4 місяці тому +6

    Getting UK/EU/US Visa is really a piece of cake! Trust me!!
    We as Indians make it a very “Big Deal” when it comes to applying for VISA to these countries.
    Nervousness, Overconfidence, Casual Dressing and Poor Body Language are few contributing factors that lead to VISA Rejections by the Consulars.
    The key factors here are (personal & professional);
    1) Your Job Role (if in service)
    2) Your Designation/Position & how long have you been employed.
    3) Your Monthly Income
    4) Your Organisation’s Global Reputation
    5) Your experience and nature of Business (if in Business/startup)
    6) Your Position in your business entity.
    7) Your Behaviour
    8) Your Purpose for applying VISA
    9) Your Home Ties
    10)Your Financial Stability and assets.
    It’s not world’s end if your VISA is disapproved.
    Just give it a chance and try again and your job will be done in no time!!

    Thanks for the detailed video!!. If we want to go as a family, like husband, wife and two kids wanting to visit US for tourism, how do we fill the DS160?, is it individual or I need to add them as dependants? Also for interview do we need to go together? Please let me know.

    • @theexploringeyes
      @theexploringeyes  5 місяців тому

      everyone needs to fill separate DS160, depending on the age of kids you can check whether they need or not by dropping an email to support. For interview, you can link all the Ds160 together and book one slot. You need to add others as dependent while booking the slot. You can check our latest QnA video where we have given a detailed roundup on this question

Before going for visa, is it necessary to get her name corrected in my passport with my family surname as we are applying together for visa and her passport contains her given name with my family surname. Please advise

    • @theexploringeyes
      @theexploringeyes  6 місяців тому

      no you can make updates in your DS160 by retrieving the already filled DS-160. You should get a new application number That new application number should be updated in your Appointment Confirmation. You can do that online or mentioning the same to the Biometric Centre. So that they can update it.
      However will recommend wait for the new passport to avoid the hassle

    2) Do we need a PCC (police clearance certificate) and Medical for a US tourist visa ?
    3) when we select "Temp. Business pleasure visitor" under 'purpose of trip to the US', what should we choose in the next column, "specify"... Is it "Business and tourism (B1/B2)" OR "tourism/medical treatment (B2)" ??

    Hi I want to know that I'm traveling for the first time in usa so my us friend is living there and work in freelancing and I don't have any job proof in pappers so my friend can invite me from a letter to visit usa so will it help to get a visitor visa and how much should be the minimum bank balance to show them and is it compulsory to show the land papers?

    • @theexploringeyes
      @theexploringeyes  2 місяці тому

      Hello, there is no thumb rule for minimum bank balance. You can keep what you think is necessary to stay in US for your planned duration. Land paper is necessary to establish the fact that you have strong reason to come back. Which is an absolute deal breaker - so be very well prepared with your reason of going and coming back

    Hi, thanks for the informative video. I just wanted to ask, I wanted to update certain information in my DS160, should I do it closer to the interview date or is there a limit till when I can update? My interview date is next year so I’d rather do it closer incase any more information comes up which needs to be updated
    Also, I have booked my appointment separately, my parents are also applying - but I haven’t booked for them yet as I was confused about the dependent/group interview bit. Now I am planning to schedule appointment for my parents as a group. Is there a possibility that I can also add myself to this?
    Also in my mothers ds160 we have mentioned that she is funding the trip herself, so it shouldn’t be a problem that I am adding her as a dependent while scheduling the interview right?
    Thanks in advance :)

    • @theexploringeyes
      @theexploringeyes  5 місяців тому

      hi Neha, yes you should change DS160 details closer to the date. Though their is no hard cut off, but suggest do at-least one week in advance.
      You can add yourself to their interview but then you get a later slot.
      Also if she is applying as dependent for interview slot, it has nothing to do with self sponsoring. Me and my wife booked together as dependent, but both shown self funding

    Hi, if i apply for a b1/b2 visa now any idea how long i need to wait it says 246 calendar days will it take exact date or less i wanna travel to USA within may 2024 but I'm unemployed and my parents are sponsoring me to travel how do I show them my ties here in India and any idea how much bank balance or statement there should be in USD for proofs?

    • @theexploringeyes
      @theexploringeyes  5 місяців тому +2

      you can tie back to India as your parents are here and if you have your investments here. Also if there is any house or property here.
      In terms of Bank Balance, depends on your length of tour, if you have flight and hotels booked, 1.5 lac INR is sufficient for a week tour in US. But you have to mention your reasons clearly which should comply with B1/B2 purpose.
      For waiting time, you can check but I dont think slots available before 1 year (atleast in India)

    • @theexploringeyes
      @theexploringeyes  5 місяців тому

      you should be clear with your plan. If you are working in India, you should have some document saying your 1 month leave is approved. Basically the idea is provide as much concrete plan as possible - that is why we presented a very crisp 7 day itinerary. Personally we feel the more confident and clear you are with your plans - it makes things easier @@Pujadas-ms4pk

      I think you can book the fastest available slot , once you give the interview, VISA can come in 7 days.
      Challenge lies in getting the slot timely. You can either drop an email to support team and request for the processing of fasttrack or emergency visa. Otherwise go through a trustworthy agent (we dont have any contacts) who can help you get a quick slot

      yeh but in 2 months it will be tough to get slot within India. You have to fill new DS160 if you want to give your interview in Canada. Basically your form filling and interview country should be same
