H-1B visa in-person interview mandate: How to prepare and key details to know
The US Department of State announced sweeping changes to its visa interview waiver policy last month. Effective September 2, 2025, applicants for US non-immigrant visas, including those applying for H-1B visas and those under the age of 14 and over 79, will have to appear for in-person interviews with a consular officer. In July, the US announced major changes to its visa interview waiver policy. Announced on July 25, the latest decision reverses the February 18, 2025 policy. Besides tightening the eligibility criteria, it further limits applicants who can skip visa interviews and only provides exceptions for a few categories. What does it mean for the H-1B visa category? This non-immigrant visa category allows employers in the United States to hire foreign workers in speciality occupations. After the latest changes, those applying under the H-1B visa category will no longer be broadly exempted from the requirement of in-person interviews. Whether applying for the first time or renewing an H-1B visa, the revised rules will require applicants to appear before a consular officer. Ultimately, this could result in longer waiting periods and increased scrutiny. The decision rolls back the exemptions that were granted during the COVID-19 pandemic period, allowing several applications to skip the in-person interviews. Also Read: US visa interview waiver rules to become stricter from September 2: Here's what changes for applicants How to prepare for in-person interviews? According to Boundless Immigration, the H-1B visa interview is held at the US Embassy or consulate in the home country of the applicant. The consular officer will take the interview to assess the applicant's qualifications, eligibility and intent. During this process, the applicants must remain prepared for documentation review, background information, details regarding their employment as well as effective communication and English proficiency. Some of the commonly asked questions during H-1B visa interviews include: Educational background: Highest educational qualification, where and what did you study, how do your educational qualifications relate to the job offer and others. Professional experience: Past working experience, how your experience prepares you for the new job role in the US and why you resigned from your last job. Job details: Here, applicants must remain aware of their job responsibilities in the US, their new job title, salary, information regarding the employer and other details. General questions: Applicants could be asked questions like: Why is their presence required in the US? Why do they wish to work in the country? Will they return to their home country after working in the US? Also Read: Who is eligible for US visa interview waiver? Key changes explained amid stricter rules Some of the key documents required include the original I-797 approval notice, labor condition application, letter from the employer, educational certificates and more. FAQs: 1. What not to do during an H-1B visa interview? Applicants should try to clearly mention their job profile and avoid using corporate jargon. 2. How long does an H-1B visa interview last? It depends on person to person. Usually, it takes place for around 10 minutes. 3. When does the updated policy come into effect? It will start from September 2, 2025.

US market today: Wall Street opens lower, bond yields sink on weak hiring data
Wall Street opened sharply lower on Friday and Treasury yields tumbled after a surprisingly weak US jobs report and the announcement of sweeping new tariffs by President Donald Trump rattled investor sentiment. The S&P 500 dropped 1% in early trading, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 383 points, or 0.8%. The Nasdaq Composite fell 1.4%, weighed down by fears of slowing economic momentum and heightened trade uncertainty, AP reported. The July payrolls report showed that the US economy added just 73,000 jobs, with steep downward revisions to May and June figures. The data reinforced expectations that the Federal Reserve may cut interest rates in September. Adding to the market jitters, Trump unveiled a sweeping set of import duties late Thursday, imposing tariff rates of up to 41% on products from dozens of countries, including a 35% levy on Canadian goods. The White House said the measures will take effect from August 7, replacing an earlier August 1 deadline. 'This wasn't just an update — it was a structural rewrite,' said Stephen Innes of SPI Asset Management. 'The average US tariff jumps from 13.3% to 15.2%, a seismic shift from the 2.3% average before Trump retook office.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Do You Speak English?

Germany's DAX dropped 1.8%, France's CAC 40 fell 2.1%, and Britain's FTSE 100 slipped 0.6%. Asian markets also declined, with South Korea's Kospi plunging 3.9%, Japan's Nikkei falling 0.7%, and Hong Kong's Hang Seng retreating 1.1%. India's Sensex closed 0.7% lower. Meanwhile, bond markets reflected growing expectations of monetary easing, with US Treasury yields falling sharply. Health care stocks led Thursday's declines on Wall Street, after the White House asked pharmaceutical giants to cut prices within 60 days. Eli Lilly fell 2.6%, UnitedHealth Group dropped 6.2%, and Bristol-Myers Squibb slid 5.8%. Oil prices were also under pressure, with US benchmark crude falling 70 cents to $68.56 per barrel and Brent slipping to $71.01.
