Recently, the US embassy introduced an online visa application process, what is the motive behind this development?
Recently, we introduced an online application form called the DM160. There are various motives behind that; one reason being it is environmentally much friendly, and save lots of papers. Again, the process is quicker. The forms are electronically sent and available right before us here in the embassy. We don’t have to have the applicants physically bring it over to us. It is also a secure process and we make sure that the online security is top much highest as it can be. So nobody should feel any vulnerability about the process been unsecured since it’s online. It also makes the process faster both for the applicants and for us. We had the forms some couple of months and there were some pains as we move into the new forms but we are getting more used to it and the applicants also are getting more used to it and in the next years or so the applicant will see the benefits. How many visa applicants do you receive a day- approximately? Well, that depends on the day and the time of the year
