If you are considering egg freezing or undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment, you may have heard that the United States is one of the most advanced countries in the world for IVF technology. However, understanding the full scope of this option is not easy, especially when dealing with cumbersome affairs like the visa process. In this article, we will provide you with a 2024 visa guide for traveling to the USA for IVF-PGT, helping you gain a more comprehensive understanding of this process.

 

Visa Options:

Firstly, let's clarify which type of visa you need to apply for. Families traveling to the USA for IVF-PGT typically choose between the B1 and B2 visas, which are business and tourist medical visas, respectively.

 

    B1 Visa: Suitable for on-site visits or negotiations related to business, investment, trade, conferences, exhibitions, and services for personal reasons.

 

    B2 Visa: Mainly issued to applicants traveling to the USA for tourism, including visiting family or friends, sightseeing, and medical purposes.

 

Both visas have a validity period of 10 years, allowing multiple entries. However, every two years, you need to log into the Electronic Visa Update System for visa registration. Additionally, upon entry into the USA, a stay period of 3 to 6 months will be granted based on the purpose of your visit. Be sure not to exceed the specified period.

 

Visa Application Steps:

The visa application process consists of five steps, as detailed below:

    Select Visa Type and Prepare Documents: Choose the appropriate visa type based on your purpose of traveling to the USA and ensure all required documents are prepared.

 

    Complete DS-160 Application Form: Fill out the non-immigrant visa application form DS-160 online and print the "Confirmation Page" with the barcode.

 

    Pay Fees and Schedule Interview: Register through the appointment center, pay the application fee, and schedule an interview. Also, choose the location where you plan to collect your passport and visa.

 

    Interview: Attend the embassy for the interview at the scheduled time. Be punctual, arrive no earlier than 30 minutes before the appointment, and avoid being late.

 

    Collect Passport and Visa: If approved, collect your passport and visa at the chosen visa location.

 

 

Interview Tips:

Creating a favorable impression during the interview with the consular officer is crucial. Be polite, answer questions sincerely, maintain eye contact, smile, and demonstrate a clear plan for your trip to the USA along with a commitment to return to your home country. Focus on preparing for the following aspects:

 

    Provide detailed explanations of the purpose and reasons for your visit to the USA, proving that it is a short-term stay.

    Offer ample evidence that you will leave the USA and return to your home country, such as commitments in terms of housing, family, and career.

    Demonstrate the financial capability to cover expenses during your stay in the USA.
