U.S. visa applicants, both immigrant and non-immigrant, are aware that one needs to visit the country specific website of www.ustraveldocs.com to pay the visa application fee and schedule the visa interview. For U.S. visa applicants in India, the web URL is www.ustraveldocs.com/in.

Recently, this website has been revamped and a new look website has been launched. The user interface is intuitive and easier to navigate to access required information. Once the applicant chooses the option to login, it takes the applicant to the visa appointment interface, very similar to the previous one. This new interface was not available on the URL http://cdn.ustraveldocs.com/in/index.html. We presume that this is in the testing phase and / or the Department of State is in the process of moving to the new website.

Once available, the new interface and news alerts will make it easier for applicants to know the latest requirements and schedule a visa interview accordingly. We will continue to monitor and keep our readers updated on any further developments.
