According to US Visa officials, processing visas for India is the top priority for the country, and since the COVID pandemic, there has been a nationwide increase of about 36%.
India is currently the top priority for the Bureau of Consular Affairs, according to Deputy Assistant Secretary for Visa Services Julie Stufft, who was speaking at a media event on Tuesday hosted by the Foundation for India and Indian Diaspora Studies. We're determined to find a solution to this problem. We are absolutely committed to getting out of this situation. Anyone in India seeking a visa appointment or visa have to wait for that's not certainly our ideal."
It is not uncommon for the US government to prioritize certain countries in the processing of visa applications based on various factors, such as diplomatic relations, trade agreements, and security concerns.
India is a major source of skilled labor and talent for many industries in the US, particularly in the technology sector, and Indian immigrants have made significant contributions to the US economy and society. Therefore, it is possible that the US government may prioritize visa processing for Indians to facilitate their entry into the US for work, study, and other purposes.
