Bipartisan senators introduce Bill to address US visa processing delays for international visitors
The core components of the Visa Processing Improvement Act encompass several key actions. Firstly, it requires the State Department to establish specific targets for interview wait times. For locations where these goals are not met, corrective actions will be taken to reduce waiting times. The bill also proposes granting the State Department the authority to exempt certain low-risk, previously vetted nonimmigrant visa applicants from in-person interviews.
