What is the process to apply for a Cultural Exchange visitor visa?

The process for applying for a Cultural Exchange Visitor visa in Wisconsin is fairly straightforward. First, applicants will need to submit their Form DS-160 or DS-160A to the U.S. Department of State, along with a valid passport and a 2x2 inch photo. Next, applicants will need to bring their application form to a U.S. Embassy or Consulate in the country they are from for an interview. During the interview, applicants will need to provide documents and information that prove they are eligible for the visa. The documents required for the application include their travel information, proof of financial resources, a letter from host organization or sponsoring organization, as well as a letter from the applicant regarding their exchange program. The proof of financial resources can be in the form of bank statements, personal savings, scholarship or other sponsorships, or other documents that show the applicant has enough money to support themselves while in the United States. Once the documents are submitted and the embassy or consulate approves the visa, the applicant will be issued an approval document by mail or e-mail. Once they have the document, they can enter the US within the validity period specified on the document. The Cultural Exchange Visitor visa allows people to enter the US to participate in an approved cultural exchange program for up to 12 months.
