Beginning January 1, 2025, the US Embassy in India will implement new regulations aimed at streamlining the scheduling and rescheduling of non-immigrant visa appointments.
The new rules aim to alleviate long wait times for applicants, which is a significant concern for many Indians seeking to work or travel to the United States.
The embassy’s announcement comes shortly after the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) introduced new rules to modernize the H-1B visa process, which is crucial for filling job vacancies in key sectors.
