Novi način za pridobitev ameriškega vizuma v 10 dneh: stane 750 dolarjev in že deluje v Mehiki

The U.S. Department of State has launched a pilot program allowing applicants to secure a visa interview appointment within ten business days by paying an additional fee of $750. The initiative, currently operational in Mexico, is designed to accommodate urgent visa requests while maintaining standard processing procedures for other applicants. This accelerated option is available until December 31, 2026, and applies specifically to non-immigrant visa categories such as tourism and business. Under the new system, applicants must first pay the regular MRV fee of $185 and schedule a standard interview through the usual process. Once their standard appointment is confirmed, they can choose the expedited service by accessing their online account and selecting the urgent payment option if it is active. The additional $750 fee must be paid within ten minutes of selecting a date and time to ensure the appointment is secured. It is important to note that these appointments are non-transferable and non-refundable, meaning any missed appointment results in the loss of the paid fee. Applicants who opt for this accelerated service will still undergo the same evaluation process and must meet all legal requirements set by U.S. immigration law. The program does not guarantee approval of the visa application itself, only that the interview will take place within the specified timeframe. Those applying in groups have the option to separate their applications if only some members require the expedited service. Each individual wishing to utilize the fast-track must pay the $750 fee independently. The expedited service is exclusively available to applicants seeking a B category visa, which includes tourism and business purposes. Eligibility requires that applicants already have a scheduled future interview and valid payment receipts for the MRV fee. Citizens who qualify for the interview exemption due to visa renewal are formally excluded from this rapid processing system. Additionally, individuals whose previous emergency appointment request was denied may still apply for the expedited service if they meet the eligibility criteria. The pilot program is currently active at the U.S. Mission in Mexico, encompassing the Embassy and all consulates in the country. While the current locations include the main diplomatic offices, further announcements regarding additional sites for the program are anticipated during its testing period. The system allows for optional premium delivery services, which are available without extra cost once the interview is completed. These options provide applicants with flexibility in receiving their documents after the interview concludes. This new approach aims to enhance efficiency in handling urgent visa cases without compromising the integrity of the overall application process. By offering an alternative pathway for those in need of faster service, the U.S. government seeks to better manage the demand for visa interviews while ensuring compliance with existing regulations. The success of the pilot in Mexico could influence future expansions to other regions, potentially increasing access to expedited services for international travelers.
