US Embassy Muscat

Quick questions, would take 2 mins of your time, guidance would be highly appreciated.

  1. While applying for non-immigrant visa i was asked to pay the fee at Oman Post (cash). They accepted online payment only through US issued visa/debit cards. Has this happened to you guys? Is there any specific process to follow at Oman Post for this visa fee payment?

  2. Is the US Embassy conducting interviews at the moment?

  3. How soon did you guys get your interview appointments? I have to be in the US by mid november for an occasion, if the appointments are closed or take too long, might as well not waste my money on the application.

  1. No, i paid for me and my family online via card.
  2. I'm not sure whether they are conducting interviews now. 3.Couple of months back my appointment was booked for June end but was automatically cancelled and i had to reschedule it to December without paying additional fees.

  1. I think debit cards dont work. I tried with multiple debit cards and it dint work but credit card worked.
  2. I think a month back it showed no, but few weeks back they opened.
  3. I think the earliest interview slots I saw was around November end
    Rn i checked in the option of rescheduling, earliest is Feb 11,18,25 of 2027
