How can it take almost a month to verify payment. Usa embassy smh

The same attitude in Accra too. It's a shitshow trust me. To think a whole US embassy will be this nonchalant towards applicants after receiving non-refundable fees is beyond belief.

They frankly do not care.

Please I'm stuck at the payment page and unable to progress with booking after making payment of my MRV Fees at the Bank. Its been 2 days now. I have logged a ticket but no help is coming from the AVITS guys.

My question, what exactly do I need to do after making payment. When I type in the bank reference number on my slip into the system, it says "given payment receipt number does not exist".

Any help with this will be appreciated. Thank you

Hey 🤠

1. It is only recommended officially to fill your main VISA Application (DS-160) before proceeding with the scheduling of your appointment, because you will need to input your DS-160 confirmation number in the process.
Although, you can use ongoing (the ds-160 that you saved uncompleted) DS-160 confirmation number to finish the task of scheduling an appointment, and go back to the DS-160 later.

2. Clear your browser history, restart your phone or computer and log back to AVITS.
Your user account will display the calendar with available appointments (dates) , or the Interview Waiver ( IW ) confirmation. Just click on the " Pending Appointment Request on your dashboard in order to continue.

Best Wishes 🙏
