The line for an interview for a nonimmigrant American visa stretched for a year, the Russian Union of Travel Industry (PCT) told Izvestia. The closest interview dates are from August 2022.
Since August 1, the US diplomatic mission in Russia has been working with a minimum number of 120 employees. Therefore, the American Embassy in Moscow recommended that Russians apply for nonimmigrant visas to US missions in other countries.
“But even in other countries where Russians have previously received a visa to the United States, the queue for interviews is a year. And these records are not always confirmed, “RST Vice President Dmitry Gorin explained to Izvestia.
Due to transport accessibility, Kazakhstan is the most popular among Russians wishing to obtain an American visa. However, now there are practically no time slots for an interview. As Izvestia was convinced, at the US Embassy in Almaty, the nearest date for an interview for a nonimmigrant tourist or business visa B1 / B2 is August 10, 2022. At the diplomatic mission in Nur-Sultan – December 14, 2022.
Similar dates are proposed by the US Embassies in Ankara and Istanbul – November next year and January 2023.
