B1/B2 Visa Error
I accidentally put B1/B2 as my visa option even if I'm just going to the US for a graduation ceremony. I thought B2 was just for medical purpose. I already booked an interview. What should I do?
Best Answer
There's no error. All B-2 visas are tourist visitor visas, the type of visa you'd use to attend a graduation ceremony (they're used for medical visits as well). So you should go to your interview as planned.
In most cases, the US will actually issue a B-1/B-2 visa, which can be used for both business (B-1) and tourism (B-2).
