The United States embassy has announced that it has reduced visa appointment wait times for the Pakistani people, amid the high demand the visas.
“Demand for US visas is the highest it has ever been,” said the embassy in a press release on Tuesday. “We are processing more visa applications than ever before and are working hard to bring down visa appointment wait times.”
The US Mission to Pakistan has announced that it has brought three ways to meet the “unprecedented demand”.
“If you have a visa appointment in the next few months at the US Consulate General in Karachi, please check your e-mail and log-in to your account at our website, ustraveldocs.com/pk, to confirm your expedited appointment time,” the statement said.
Visa applicants can rebook appointments at either the Consulate General in Karachi or the US Embassy in Islamabad—a step the mission said was taken to create added flexibility for Pakistani travelers. “Our hope is that this will allow applicants more freedom and flexibility to find a convenient date, time, and location.”
The US Consulate General Karachi would begin accepting new interview waiver applications for some applicants who have previously been issued US visas from September 25. “Applicants can check ustraveldocs.com/pk to determine whether they are eligible, print out a confirmation letter, and submit their application materials to a drop box without the need for an appointment.”
