If you are issued a visa, it is crucial to comply with United States immigration laws. Overstaying your authorized period in the country could result in deportation and potentially a permanent ban on future travel to the United States.

U.S. visa applicants are subject to thorough security screenings, which include checks against law enforcement and counterterrorism databases. It is important to understand that holding a U.S. visa is considered a privilege rather than a right. Furthermore, the screening process does not conclude once a visa is granted; any violation of laws or misuse of the visa may lead to its revocation.
