US Embassy launches new scheduling mechanism
The US Embassy in Dhaka has introduced a new scheduling mechanism to accommodate more interviews of visa applicants.
The changes began on 15 December while the full scale schedule change will start from 2 January 2025, said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The US Embassy in Dhaka has informed the following important changes under the new scheduling mechanism.
Applicant's non-immigrant visa interview will be cancelled if he/she does not have a valid DS-160 confirmation (barcode) number on the day of his/her interview that the Embassy is able to retrieve in its system and which matches their manifest.
In that case, applicants will need to reschedule their interview and may have to wait a couple of months to get a new date.
The valid DS-160 confirmation (barcode) number must be reflected in the applicant's online profile; any changes in the online profile/DS-160 within a week (7 calendar days) before the visa interview will result in the cancellation of the interview appointment.
