Can I still apply for an American visa in 2022?

According to the US Entry Visa Management Notice, at present, foreign citizens who have stayed in China are not allowed to enter the United States, and the routine visa processing of all consulates around the world is suspended, so they cannot enter the country and apply for visas in April.

Because since the United States resumed the appointment time for face-to-face visas, many customers have already made an appointment first, so that the appointment time of American embassies and consulates has either been scheduled for the second half of the year or there is no appointment time. If the embassy returns to normal, it will post a large number. Even if you grab the year-end number, your face-to-face interview can't be carried out normally because of a large number of appointments. If the epidemic in the United States cannot be controlled according to the normal progress, the embassy will not recover. Even if we grab the earlier time, the time when the embassy does not resume the appointment will be cancelled, which is still meaningless.

Therefore, Shunqian Nanchang Visa Center gives you a suggestion here: Don't pay the fee in a hurry, and then brush the appointment time in a hurry. On the contrary, the new policy of waiting for a visa in the United States is safer, because the visa fee of $ 160 paid by the consulate is not refundable when making an appointment for a face-to-face visa, and the validity period is short.
