U.S. Consulate in Mumbai resumes H and L visa processing
09/06/2011
The Department of State has announced that the U.S. Consulate General in Mumbai, India has resumed interviews for H and L visa applicants today. This follows a six month period when applicants were required to apply at other consular facilities in India.
Although the U.S. consulates in India issue more H and L visas than any other U.S. consular mission worldwide, the consulate in Mumbai halted the processing of H and L visas on March 3, 2011 due to infrastructure issues at the facility.
A new U.S. Consulate is currently under construction in the Bandra/Kurla area of Mumbai and is expected to open in late 2011.
