“What to Say (and NOT Say) in Your U.S. Visa Interview!  Avoid These Common Mistakes”

Transcript

00:00Preparing for a U.S. visa interview can feel daunting, but knowing exactly what to say and what not to say can make all the difference.

00:09The consular officer wants to determine if you're a genuine visitor with every intention to return home.

00:15So your answers should be clear, direct, and honest.

00:18First, be precise about your travel purpose.

00:22If you're visiting as a tourist, say so confidently, mentioning your travel destinations and activities.

00:27For example, say, I plan to visit New York and Los Angeles for two weeks as a tourist.

00:34Avoid vague statements like, I just want to see what happens.

00:38Maybe find work.

00:39Mentioning work, study, or any long-term stay casts doubts on your intentions and can jeopardize your chances.

00:47Next, demonstrate strong ties to your home country.

00:50Explain your commitments, such as a job, family, or school, that will ensure your return.

00:56Saying, I have a full-time job at home and will return after my vacation, shows responsibility.

01:04In contrast, saying you're unsure of your plans afterward can raise suspicions.

01:09Know your travel details.

01:11A prepared applicant can provide specifics.

01:15Arrival and departure dates, your hotel, and your planned itinerary.

01:19If you answer, I'll arrive on June 5th and leave on June 20th, staying at XYZ Hotel.

01:26You show organization, saying you haven't planned anything yet, may seem careless and unprepared.

01:32Be frank about your finances.

01:34If your parents or another sponsor is footing the bill, state this clearly and have proof ready.

01:40Any uncertainty, like hesitantly claiming a friend might help, can signal financial instability.

01:45Finally, avoid oversharing.

01:48Answer each question succinctly and only share the information requested.

01:53Don't launch into stories about relatives' immigration status or discuss long-term dreams of living in the U.S.

02:00It can get you off track and raise unnecessary doubts.

02:03Approach your interview with honesty, confidence, and preparation.

02:07That's your ticket to putting your best foot forward for your U.S. visa success.

02:11Thanks.
