How often can I reschedule US visa appointments?

In most cases, you can reschedule your U.S. visa and OFC (Offsite Facilitation Center) appointment up to three times without having to pay the visa fee again. However, this count includes both initial scheduling and any subsequent reschedules. Here's how it works:

Key Points:

1. Number of Reschedules Allowed:

o You are allowed a total of three attempts, including the initial appointment booking. After three attempts, you would need to pay the visa fee again.

2. Timeline Considerations:

o Rescheduling is subject to appointment availability.

o Ensure that the reschedule date is within the validity period of your visa fee payment (typically one year from the payment date).

3. Exceptions:

o If you cancel the appointment without rescheduling or miss your scheduled appointment, it may count as an attempt.

4. Official Confirmation:

o Policies may vary slightly by country or U.S. Embassy/Consulate. It is advisable to check the U.S. Department of State's official visa appointment portal for your region for specific guidelines.
