Travelling us visa. Hi, I'm Vietnamese studying in Australia as overseas student?

Question

I want to get a Us visa for travelling but don't know what to do. I heard it's very hard to get that. Should I do it by myself or are there any agent could do that. How long does it take before iterviewing. What type of visa should I need. I used to search on US embassy but still confuse. Please give me any idea. Thanks alot

Answer 1

The process is very straight forward - simply apply at the US Embassy Canberra (visa issuance is being dramatically reduced this summer at the consulates in Sidney and Melbourne - see the website for details).  First schedule an appointment on-line through Visa Point, then pay the non-refundable application fee at any any Australia Post Office (currently $130 Australian Dollars) - there is no visa issuance fee for Vietnam:

Take your application, fee receipt, valid passport and proof of current ties to Australia, as well as any supporting documentation to your interview.

You do not need to pay an agent to get a visa - it will not improve your chances of success - you will be assessed on your own merits.

go to the consulate , there is one in Sydney
