If you are only applying for a B1/B2 visa the U.S. embassy or consulate does not reimburse the fees for the evaluation of the B1/B2 visa application form and the consular interview. Therefore, we cannot be held responsible for the reimbursement of these fees.

These reasons must be valid and justifiable on your part. Our Company will carefully review the reasons on which you base your refund request through your bank.
