Thanks for the details video. Yesterday, I called uscis India support center for payment process assistance, they can`t give any info rather asked me to check website for payment process details. This video saved my time, not sure about payment info documentation in their website. One question - in VFS EFT while adding their ICICI account, is it checkings or savings account type?
Hi Maruthi. First of all, I would like to thank you for providing us a detailed explanation to make payment for the US VISA fee in different ways. Just now before I watched your video, I made a transaction using my credit card for my grandmother's application. While re-routing the payment gateway to VFS Global, the system asked to enter the details of first name, surname, and e-mail ID. Unfortunately, I provided my details (instead applicant's) and completed the transaction with a credit card. Now the query is: how can I correct it..? Please let me know if you know of any solution for this... Thanks in advance.
Nice video! Thanks! I tried with NEFT and credited the amount back after a week. Not sure what was the issue. I have to try again with NEFT or UPI. Looks like UPI is the best and easy one!
I have tried again using NEFT (make sure you add the account number without any space after AVEP) and select account type as Current Account (earlier I selected as Savings which did not work). This time it worked perfectly in an hour.
Hi, thanks for this Informative video. I have one doubt if you can help me: Scenario: 1. IN DS 160 my location was Delhi but while selecting slots I selected Chennai as no Delhi slots were available. (Which I saw from your Video is not a problem anymore) 2. Now I have an appointment scheduled on the 27th of this month and I reside in Pune. I want to drop off my documents at Pune. Is this possible even though my consulate is in Chennai? Or for that now I have to either go to South Zone locations like Kochi or Bangalore or let's say Chennai itself. Please guide
for the EFT option what is the shipping name should be? is it the applicant for visa person's name or the bank account holders name who would be doing the EFT as my dad would be doing it. Please help
I chose VFS EFT but it is not showing the bank detail. I am getting error as " confirmation to your transaction is still pending". Hence I am not sure how to proceed with payment. Any help will be appreciated. very well explained Eagle9.
I have question specific to VFS Credit card. At the last page we have to provide card details. there is disclaimer mentioned above " we accept : Master/Rupay/Visa . I don't have AMEX corporate credit card and my organisation advised me to use this card for any business use. Can some one had used AMEX card for payment ?
Once the payment is paid through Citi Cash option, is it going to update the application automatically? or is there any option to post the payment reference number?
I've booked an h4 visa appointment for my wife and paid through a Debit Card which is in my name. But the Visa payment receipt shows the Applicant's name as my name "Rehan Sheikh". Shouldn't it show my wife's name in it? In the booking portal, under MRV Fee payments, it shows my wife's name correctly as the applicant's name: "Sana Khan". What should I do?

Not sure if anyone else faced this issue but if you have VPN enabled on your laptop then it won't even open payment page. But after I proceed with credit card/ debit card option, it gives error - "We regret to inform you that your online payment transaction could not be completed successfully." - this comes after clicking Continue when you are trying to be on the last page where it gives option to enter payment card details. Not sure, if vfs website is down for maintenance in evenings of US / weekends? Do we just try again later?
I have been facing this issue from last 3 days. Please let me know if any one has this resolved. Not getting any response from customer support centre.
