People have suffered heavily due to the long wait for US visa, delays in appointment confirmation have now been accepted as a norm. Many are even prepared to wait for months. Be it tourism, business or even student visas, people have begun factoring in even the wait period. People have begun considering neighbouring countries like Vietnam, Cambodia, and Kuwait, as their wait for an international US visa application is less than a week. While Bangkok, Thailand, has a 25-day wait, still much less than that in India, where it exceeds 400 days, which is good over a year.
