A note from Shachi
You'd think a business meeting visa would be straightforward. It usually is, until it isn't.
Officers process dozens of B1 applications a day. They've seen every vague invitation letter and every generic "business meetings" answer. If you can't explain in 30 seconds who you're meeting, what you'll discuss, and why you'll come back, you're at risk.
I built my STAMP Method around the five things every officer evaluates: your Story, your Ties, your Answers, your Money, and your Papers. For business visitors, the key is specificity, the officer needs to see a real trip, not a template.
If you want to walk in with a clear, rehearsed story, let's talk.
— Shachi
Sound familiar?
"I have the invitation letter, isn't that enough?"
An invitation proves you were invited, not that you'll return. Officers need more.
"I'm meeting clients for the first time"
New business relationships with no track record get extra scrutiny. You need a clear story.
"My company is sponsoring the trip but I'm a junior employee"
Officers wonder why a junior person needs to be there. You need a clear business justification.
"I've never travelled abroad before"
No travel history means more questions about ties and intent.
Common pitfalls
"Business meetings" without names, companies, or agendas sounds made up.
A template letter with no trip-specific details does more harm than good.
Training, hands-on setup, or extended client projects need H-1B, not B1.
"I'll come back after my meetings" without a return ticket or ongoing projects isn't convincing.
My approach
Why this trip? We build a specific narrative, who you're meeting, what you'll discuss, why it has to be in-person, and when you'll return.
What brings you back? Job, salary, family, ongoing projects, we identify your strongest ties so the officer has no doubt.
Can you pitch your trip in 15 seconds? We structure every answer and practice in mock interviews until natural.
Who's paying? Company-sponsored or self-funded, the officer needs clarity in one sentence.

Ideally 4-6 weeks before your interview. That gives enough time for document review, answer building, and multiple mock interviews. If you're late, don't worry. Our Core package works as a 3-day crash course.
No one can guarantee approval. The final decision rests with the consular officer. What we guarantee: you walk into your interview fully prepared, with clear answers, strong documentation, and real confidence. We've coached 2,500+ applicants one-on-one, and we are always transparent that no one can promise a specific outcome.
You'll experience a realistic simulation of a U.S. visa interview. I play the role of the consular officer using real questions specific to your visa type and profile. After the mock, you receive the recording so you can review your performance and refine your answers before the real thing.
Almost certainly. Over the years, I've worked with applicants across every visa category and situation — prior refusals, complex employment histories, complicated finances, applications from high-scrutiny consulates, dependent visas, and more. If you're unsure whether your situation is something I can help with, just message us on WhatsApp. I'm happy to discuss before you commit to anything.
We accept UPI, bank transfer, Razorpay (for INR payments), and Stripe (for USD payments). All prices are listed in both USD and INR. Payment is collected after an initial consultation to ensure the service is right for you.
"The trip is only 5 days but the officer might not believe that"
Short trips are common, but officers want proof you have a reason to return quickly.
If the trip costs more than your monthly salary, officers question who's really funding it.
Invitation, company letter, itinerary, DS-160, all cross-checked for consistency.
