A US B1/B2 visitor visa remains one of the more document-intensive applications available to UK residents holding non-EU passports, requiring a completed DS-160 form, a paid application fee, and an in-person embassy interview. GoSchengen manages your DS-160 submission and tracks available interview slots for skilled workers, students, spouse visa holders, refugees, and Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) residents.
Every B1/B2 applicant must complete the online DS-160 form accurately before booking a mandatory in-person interview at the US Embassy. Errors on the form or a poorly prepared interview are among the most common reasons for refusal under Section 214(b).
We complete your DS-160 form field by field, cross-checking every entry against your passport and travel history to avoid the inconsistencies that commonly trigger refusals or interview delays.
US Embassy interview wait times fluctuate significantly across UK consulate locations. We monitor available interview slots and guide you toward the earliest realistic appointment date.
If you hold a non-EU passport — such as an Indian, Pakistani, Nigerian, or Middle Eastern passport — and reside in the UK, you must complete a full B1/B2 visa application, including a paid fee and an in-person interview.
Employer letters, recent payslips, or business bank statements supporting your ties to UK employment.
Enrollment letters confirming your intent to return and complete your studies in the UK.
Specialized handling for Geneva Convention travel documents within the DS-160 and interview process.
Strategic presentation of your UK residency and financial circumstances ahead of your interview.
The B1/B2 is a combined visitor visa — we structure your DS-160 and interview preparation around your primary travel purpose.
For holidays, sightseeing, and visiting family or friends across the United States.
For attending conferences, negotiating contracts, or consulting with US-based business associates.
For seeking medical treatment in the United States, supported by relevant medical documentation.
The majority of B1/B2 refusals happen at the interview stage, not on paperwork alone. Consular officers assess whether you have sufficiently strong ties to the UK to demonstrate that your visit is genuinely temporary.
Weak evidence of ties to the UK, inconsistent DS-160 answers, and unprepared interview responses are the leading causes of B1/B2 refusals. GoSchengen reviews your full profile and prepares you for the exact questions consular officers commonly ask before your interview.

Yes. Almost all first-time B1/B2 applicants must attend an in-person interview at a US Embassy or Consulate as part of the standard application process.
British citizens holding a full UK passport can typically travel to the US for short visits under the Visa Waiver Program (ESTA). Our services are for UK residents holding non-EU passports who require a full B1/B2 visa.
Section 214(b) presumes every applicant intends to immigrate unless they can demonstrate strong ties to their home country. Most B1/B2 refusals happen under this section, making thorough interview preparation critical.
If your application is refused, we review the reason provided, strengthen your supporting evidence, and help you prepare for a stronger re-application.
Let our specialists complete your DS-160, track available interview slots, and prepare you thoroughly for your embassy interview.
