Here is some information on the visa situation and all foreign nationals are strongly encouraged to clarify their visa needs as soon as they contemplate travel to the US. Visa processing time is difficult to predict for an individual applicant. For many, a personal appearance interview is required as a standard part of visa processing. Getting the personal appearance interviews scheduled will take months.
