United States Visa
B1/B2 visitor • F1 student • J1 exchange
Visa overview
A US visa requires the DS-160 form, fee payment and a personal interview at the embassy. The interview is decisive: you must convince the consular officer of a clear purpose and strong ties to your home country.

United States (B1/B2 — express appointment): we only monitor for earlier appointment availability (typically within 15 to 90 days) on the official platform and notify you as soon as it is detected. We do not book, do not access your account, and do not guarantee approval of an expedited request or of the visa itself. The decision rests solely with the U.S. Embassy.
RMDS provides an appointment ALERT service only: we notify you when potential availability is detected. We do not book, do not access your account or the customer portal, do not bypass any protection (CAPTCHA), do not submit appointment requests, do not pay appointment fees and do not guarantee availability. RMDS represents no VFS, TLS or BLS centre, embassy or consulate.
Site reachable ≠ appointment available: an appointment alert is only sent on an actual availability signal.
This service only sends alerts when potential appointment availability is detected. It does not include booking and does not guarantee that the slot will still be available when you access the official platform. Booking remains the customer's responsibility.

Frequently asked questions
How do you prepare the interview?
We run a full mock interview with the officer's common questions and check that your answers match your DS-160 and financial file.
Can you guarantee the visa?
No. The decision belongs solely to the consulate. Our role is to help you prepare an organized, complete application based on the requirements published by the competent authorities.
What happens if I am refused?
We analyse the stated grounds for refusal with you and prepare either an appeal or a new file addressing the weak points.
How long does file preparation take?
3 to 7 days to prepare the form and interview.
