US Embassy In Abuja Begins Interview Waiver For Visa Renewals
The United States Embassy in Abuja says it will begin processing certain non-immigrant visa renewal applications without requiring an interview starting from March 30, 2022.
The Embassy’s Senior Public Affairs Specialist, Aishah Gambari, made this known in a statement on Wednesday.
The statement was titled, ‘US Embassy in Abuja begins interview waiver programme for certain visa renewals.’

The statement noted that there would be no interviews for visa renewals where, “The visa is B1/B2, F, M, J (academic only), H, L, or C1/D (combined only);
“The previous visa was a full validity, multiple entry visa; the applicant is applying for the same visa classification as the prior approved visa; the applicant has never been arrested or convicted of any crime in the United States (even if they later received a pardon or waiver);
“The applicant has never worked without authorization or overstayed in the United States; and the applicant has not had any significant life changes.”
It urged qualified applicants seeking to utilise the no-interview programme to set an appointment for document review online, adding that applicants won’t have access to their passport until completion of processing which may be up to two months.
The embassy also said application fees would remain at $160 for non-petition-based non-immigrant visas, and $190 for petition-based non-immigrant visa categories.
