Few tips for B1 visa interview


Key points for preparation:
1. As VO can hardly spend 5-10 mins for interview (it mite go long in seldom cases) so it becomes extremely important to choose your words and thus your answers very carefully.
2. Prepare well on questions like "purpose of the visit" and "duration", for former question if possible write it clearly and memorize it, cause at times you mite feel quite anxious the moment when you face the VO hence better to memorize, but please dont look artificial.
3. Be confident and present yourself as confident, cause your impression on VO also matters a lot.
4. Be in synch with the information you had given in your DS -160 form.

Key expectations of VO before approving B1:
1. VO expects that you’r a genuine candidate for B1.
2. VO expects that you will come back to your country once your purpose of visit is done.

A right preparation.. that is all you need to bag your opportunity.. best of luck and fly safe :)

PS: Travelling guidance for those who has interview in Mumbai.
Most of the taxi/riksha drivers know BKC (Bandra kurla complex) but they mite not know US consulate office, so it is better for you to have an idea of the locations.
For OFC: It will be in "Trade Center" this building is towards the end of BKC.
For Interview: It will be in G block which is near hotel Trident, any driver would know about hotel Trident if not ask anybody over there.

Cheers!
