B1/B2 Visitor Visa - First-time Applicant

USA B1/ B2 Visitor Visa
1

Hello All,
I have been wanting to visit to USA for leisure purposes and hence I have applied for USA Visitor Visa in September, 2022. Since no earlier appointment dates were available for first-time Visitor Visa Applicants, I got the appointment for Visa Interview for April, 2025. A huge waiting period…! Thereafter in this year in January, new appointment slots were released and I managed to get new appointment for February, 2024. Is there a possibility to get appointment slots in this year 2023? I have selected Mumbai Consulate for my interview since I am from Gujarat.

Can anyone throw some light how to get early visa interview appointment? My purpose of visit is for leisure and I don’t have any family member living in the US. Only some friends and extended family relatives are based in the US.

Thank you.
