hello everyone welcome to stilt video series no matter if you are applying for a b-1 visa or a b2 visa the questions that you will be asked to the beginning of the interview with the consular officer will be the same usually the consular officer starts the conversation by commenting something on the weather the rush hour in the morning or the long queue at the Embassy that's because they want you to feel comfortable and make you feel less nervous or stressed have all documents in your hands nicely arranged and in order and to the interviewer every document that he asks for followed by the explanations if you see it necessary the commonly asked questions for u.s. visitor visa interview are the following question what is the purpose of your visit to the u.s. this is just a warm-up question just answer in two to three sentences which clearly explain the reasons behind your purpose of travel whatever it is as for business purposes to negotiate a contract to visit my mother who lives in the US for medical treatment etc answer shortly and clearly since the time you have with the consular officer is short and you do not want to waste it by talking gibberish and nor does the interviewer question do you have any relatives or friends currently in the US even if you have some far away relatives that you only meet every three or four years or even less tell the consular about them alternatively even if you have a friend you have only met once or twice you will have to tell the consular again it is better to do so rather than the consular officer finding out later since that could put at risk your chances to get a visa the embassy is mostly scared that their visitors will try to remain in the u.s. and hiding such information as having a relative or friend residing in the u.s. might make your purpose of visit look more suspicious question details on your friends or relatives in the u.s. if you have any you will be asked questions on how long they have been living in the u.s. their addresses what they work etc therefore try to contact your friends and relatives in advance and ask them about this information question where will you be residing in the United States if you have booked a hotel show your hotel booking and tell the interviewer a bit why you have chosen that hotel if you will be staying over at friends or relatives show their information letter and describe your relationship with them question what is the reasoning for traveling at this particular time if you are applying for a b-1 visa it is easier for the interviewer to accept your reasons whereas if you are traveling under the b2 visa then you have to give stronger reasons as only during this period I can take days off at work my friend or relative has available space at her home is free only during this time of year my medical condition has worsened now and I can no longer receive the right treatment in my home country question how long will you be staying in the u.s. one week three months two days etc just give the amount of time you are planning to remain in the u.s. question why do you plan to stay so long can you stay shorter you must have a strong reason behind it so provide the interviewer with a comprehensive explanation question who will you be traveling with if you are going alone tell so if you will be going with someone else explain to the counselor if these people will apply as your dependents or not and also what is your relationship with these people question have you booked your tickets if you will be asked this question depends on your situation however if you've already done such a thing and the booking confirmation letter to the interviewer question how much do you think your stay in the US will cost you prepare an itinerary for your US trip including all types of expenses present this itinerary to the interviewer when asked this question it will give the consular officer the idea that you know what you're doing and that you are aware of how much you will be spending question what do you do for a living how much do you earn tell the interviewer about your profession what you do in general how long you've been working there as well as about your work place its name etc tell them about the income you receive from this particular job if you have other types of income that is rent or freelancing present how much you receive monthly or annually from them question how will you be financing your trip who is your sponsor this is a question they asked just to make sure where your money is coming from you will be presenting to the interviewer a statement on your bank account and other documents so of course they know who will be sponsoring your trip however answer simply and clearly show proof of all your income and savings if you plan to finance your trip with your own financial means question are you married do you have children do you have pets the consular wants to know if you are leaving someone behind to whom you are committed to you and will have to go back to if you have children or pets tell them who will take care of them while you're away and what your relationship is with the caretaker who will take care of your house property children or pets while you are away if you have children or pets you will have to show to the consular the people who will look after them and your relationship with that person the same with houses or property do you have any intention of remaining in the US we all know that even if you do have an intention to stay in the US you will not be telling that to the consular this question is asked so you have a chance to prove to him that you have no such intention you should be very convincing tell them the strongest reasons why you have to get back to your country upon your visa expiration show that you have very strong ties to your country by telling them you have family kids pets friends property etc apart from these questions the consulate may also ask other questions to ensure that you are in a sound physical and mental condition to travel to the United States they are usually simple questions that can be answered with relative ease just make sure that the information entered into your b1 or b2 visa application is accurate as the form will be referenced while you are answering the questions at the interview you
