U.S. visa applicants using www.usvisascheduling.com should note that the website is down for maintenance for about two hours from 11 a.m. EST on Thursday, March 7, 2024. We are hopeful that this upgrade will help end the ordeal U.S. visa applicants have been facing for the past several months since the new system was introduced. This new system has been plagued by several technical issues with very little to no support from the staff at the visa application centre. While we understand that any new system takes time to overcome the teething trouble, this has taken longer and some unscrupulous agents have been taking advantage of these tech issues. We will continue to report on this important subject as more information is available.
