    Thank you for this informative video.
    I applied to renew my B1/B2 visa and being informed by the officer during the interview that my visa application is approved. However, after waiting for more than a week, I was surprised that there was an email sent by the embassy to fill in the DS-5535 form which I missed but eventually responded and submitted. Now it’s been 8 days since the form submission and not even received a confirmation email that my email was received.
    The problem is that my employer paid for my Executive Leadership Training program at one of the well-known US universities and I have to start it on 24 July 2022. Hence, I’m not sure what to do and I do appreciate your kind advice on what shall I do.
