On May 30, 2023, fees for nonimmigrant visas at all consulates abroad will increase. Fees are increasing for new visa applications as of May 30, 2023 only. Applicants who pay the visa fee before May 30, 2023 and schedule an interview within 365 days of the day payment is made are not affected by this change. There is no requirement for the interview to actually occur during that 365-day period, applicants must just take the step of scheduling an appointment within 365 days.
