If you are applying for a U.S. visa for the first time, you can choose CITIC Bank, but there is no guarantee that your visa application will be successful.

The specific steps for applying for a U.S. visa are as follows:

1. Fill out the online DS-160 non-immigrant visa application form and print out the "confirmation page" with a barcode.

2. Pay the visa application fee.

3. Make an appointment for an interview.

Log in to your profile page using the credentials you used to pay.

After entering the system, you can see the control panel. Click "Schedule Appointment" on the left-hand menu to start the appointment scheduling process.

Materials required for making an appointment: (1) Passport number; (2) Number on the visa application payment receipt; (3) Ten (10) digit barcode number on the DS-160 confirmation page.

In the next process, you need to select the visa type, enter personal information, add relatives, select the document delivery address, confirm the payment status of the visa fee, and the last step is to arrange an interview time.

4. Go to the appointment location for an interview.

Go to the embassy/consulate for an interview at the agreed time. Please bring with you a printed copy of the appointment slip, a printed copy of the DS-160 confirmation page, a recent photo taken within the last six months, and all old and new passports. If any of the above materials are missing, the application will not be accepted.

5. Receive passport and visa.

If the visa is approved, the passport and visa will be sent to the designated location selected during the interview appointment.
