US Visa Accounts Banned - Extensions and Slot Updates (Student, Tourism, Work Visas)

 

Facing issues while trying to book your US visa slots? Do you also see an “Access Limitation” pop-up on your screen? A lot of us have been facing the same issue. But don’t worry; we can explain why this is happening and what you can do to avoid being stuck on the page and missing an opening. 

 

What is the “Access Limitation” pop-up?

 

Go to the Terms and Conditions page of the USTravelDocs and check the updated version of the prohibited conduct. It mentions that this “Access Limitation” might be due to the presence of any plug-ins or extensions on your device. This step has been taken to keep the visa slot booking process fair and ensure that you check your visa slots by yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions!

Can I use a family member’s account to book a visa slot if mine is banned?toggle

It is not recommended to use another person's account to book your visa slot as it may violate USTravelDocs policies. Always use your own account to avoid further complications.

What are the common mistakes to avoid when booking a visa slot?toggle

Avoid using browser extensions, VPNs, and multiple accounts simultaneously. Ensure all information is accurate and up-to-date before attempting to book a slot.

Can using a VPN help in booking visa slots?toggle

Using a VPN is not recommended as it can trigger security measures on the site, potentially leading to account suspension. It's best to book slots from a stable and recognized IP address.

Why are slots for business/tourism visas so limited?toggle

High demand and prioritization of other visa categories, such as student and work visas, often lead to limited availability for business/tourism visas. The latest available dates are sometimes pushed far into the future.

Can I use multiple devices to check for visa slot availability?toggle

Using multiple devices can increase your chances, but ensure each device is free of extensions. Be cautious of triggering security measures that might lead to an account ban.

Is there a way to appeal if my account gets permanently banned?toggle

Contact USTravelDocs support to inquire about the reason for the permanent ban and possible steps for appeal. Provide any necessary documentation or explanation to support your case.
