American students' holiday visas are about to expire. Can I renew it urgently?

You can apply for an expedited renewal. The following is the whole process of applying for expediting:

1. Fill in the online non-immigrant visa application form DS- 160 and print out the "confirmation page" with barcode.

Note: All applicants, including children, must submit the DS- 160 form online and bring a clearly printed "confirmation page" when going to the embassy or consulate for an interview. Please ensure that all information is complete and correct before submission. No changes can be made after submission. Remember the DS- 160 number to make an appointment for an interview.

2. Pay the visa application fee.

Note: After the payment is completed, print the receipt number and keep it properly. Once lost, it cannot be replaced. If you don't provide the receipt number, you will not be able to make an appointment.

3. Make an appointment for an interview.

Schedule the interview time online and choose the earliest interview date. Please note that the general interview time must be arranged before you can apply for an expedited interview date. When arranging the interview time, a message will appear on the screen, showing the earliest interview date (including emergency interview). If there is no earlier interview date, there is no need to apply for an expedited interview. If you want to continue to apply for an expedited interview, please fill in the expedited interview form in English or contact the reservation center for help. Please be sure to indicate the type of emergency travel that you think meets the requirements of expedited interview. After submitting your application, please wait patiently for the reply from the embassy or consulate.

If the embassy or consulate general approves your application, you will receive an email reminding you to arrange an emergency interview online. If the embassy or consulate refuses to apply for an expedited interview, you will receive a corresponding email notice, and you should continue to use the current appointment interview time.

Note: The email outbox used to approve or reject the application starts with "No reply". Some email applications filter messages from "unknown senders" as spam. If you haven't received the email notification, please look for the relevant email in the spam box.

5. Go to the visa location selected when making an appointment for an interview.

Go to the embassy or consulate for an interview at the appointed time. Please take with you the printed reservation form, the printed confirmation page of DS- 160, the recent photos of the last six months and all new and old passports. If any of the above materials is missing, the application will not be accepted.

6. Apply for passports and visas.

If the visa is passed, send the passport and visa to the designated place selected during the appointment interview.
