The US B1/B2 Visitor Visa interview at the US Consulate General in Dubai or US Embassy Abu Dhabi is the decisive factor in your application. Consular officers evaluate your DS-160 details and verbal answers under Section 214(b).
Under US law, all applicants are presumed to be intending immigrants until they satisfy the consular officer that their trip is temporary and that they have strong ties back to the UAE.
Keep your answers concise, direct, and completely aligned with the information filed on your DS-160 form. Mismatches in job title, income, or travel dates cause immediate concern.
Carry your physical dossier (DS-160 confirmation, appointment page, NOC, 6 months bank statements) organized neatly in a transparent folder.
We assist with DS-160 form filing, CGI Federal appointment guidance, and 1-on-1 mock interview preparation. See our US B1/B2 visa page or .
