Set a possible date for the interview (ideally 3 to 4 months before your travel)

Arrange for payment of the visa fee. As of 2019, the Tourism Visa Fee is $160 or AED 590

After finishing these steps, you will be directed to a receipt page. Print this page and bring it with you on the day of the interview

Prepare additional documents

During the interview, you might be asked for more information about yourself and the purpose of your travel. Hence, it would be wise to prepare additional documents, such as

UAE resident visa

Letter or certificate of employment

Bank statement for the last 6 months

Additional 2 x 2 photos

Confirmed flight tickets and booking details

Accommodation / hotel booking details

Travel or itinerary details

Get ready for the interview

On the day of the interview, see to it that you

Arrive early (at least 30 minutes) for your scheduled appointment

Have all the necessary documents with you

Are ready for the interview itself, which will take only about 3 to 5 minutes

NOTE: Usually, the interviews questions will focus on the purpose of your travel (why do you want to go to the US?), your job (what do you do?), and your earning capacity (how much do you make?). So as long as you can answer these questions, the interview should be fine. However, answering these questions properly may not guarantee you getting a US visa as it is still subject to approval by the embassy
