Question

I don't have my bank statements. However i have letter from my employer stating that he will be financing my whole trip and stay at the US.

How much time does it take in interview. I have to book my return flight. The time given on my interview appointment letter is 0815. by what time would i get free

Answer 1

Many people are given the same interview time...so you have to wait in line.  You could be there 4 hrs. easily if there are many people in line.  Each interview takes only 2 or 3 minutes...the officer does NOT spend much time with you.  It REALLY would be good for you to have your personal bank statements or some proof of your PERSONAL financial status.  It is great that your employer is paying for the trip, but the embassy wants proof that you have reasons to return to your home.  YOU need to prove yu have ties to your home country, a home, family, job, finances so they wi know you will return home...THIS is their BIG concern.  You should not book a return ticket before 4 in the afternoon to be safe...some days the wait at the embassy islong.
