US B1/B2 Visa interview wait times - what is Waiver Visitor in this context?
Upvote:3
I think it is referring to whether an interview is required or waived.

The U.S. Embassy and Consulates in Mexico are currently processing nonimmigrant visas. Applicants should expect a longer-than-normal wait time for this service and plan accordingly. For more information about wait times, visit this link . Applicants applying in the same visa class and whose previous visa expired within the last 48 months may be eligible for interview waiver. Applicants may schedule a renewal appointment here .

I found a few different statements about interview waivers.
- If under 14 or over 79.
- visa renewal (with extra requirements like no refusal on most recent visa, and so on)
- Connected to 2, certain categories of visas (like student or C/D visas) with different embassies allowing different categories of visas to have interviews waived.
Burma's embassy has a comprehensive page about the different categories and what documents, etc. that you still have to have or submit. The Indian embassy has a slightly different statement about which visa categories are eligible.
And here's the Canadian one.
