Rules can change, so Rankhog keeps verification dates and the original public Reddit sources visible.
Rule summary
- No Agents or Spammers or VO/CO or Redact: Accounts posting images of available slots or promising to help for a payment will be banned from the subreddit. Same goes for spammers posting weird messages and/or comments. Also banned are the users who claim to be current/former consulate employees/Visa Officers (VO)/Consulate Officers (CO) as all of them are either fake or trying to sell/advertise their service. No discussion, feedback or review of any agencies are allowed either.
- Remember the Human: Be respectful to others and check your insults at the door. Don’t attack, harass, or call out other people in the comments, and assume good faith of those participating here.
- No Duplicate Post/Comment: Exact same post and duplicate comments by the same user will be removed.
- No AI Generated Content: AI-generated post and comments (except AutoModerator bot) are not allowed. We are human beings here and AI generated responses do not add any value to this subreddit. Most importantly, most of the time they are incorrect/obsolete.
- No Irrelevant/Untrue Topic/Comment: Topics / comments that are either factually incorrect or irrelevant to this subreddit may not be posted.
Works well
- A detailed post asking about a specific error message you encountered on the usvisascheduling.com website.
- A question about a confusing step in the USA visa application process that you are genuinely stuck on.
- A polite comment sharing your own experience with the same scheduling issue another user described.
- A post written entirely in your own words about a workaround you discovered for a ustraveldocs.com login problem.
Avoid
- Do not post images of available visa slots or offer to help people book slots for a payment.
- Do not claim to be a current or former consulate employee, visa officer, or consulate officer.
- Do not discuss, review, or provide feedback on any visa agencies.
- Do not use AI tools to generate your posts or comments.
- Do not post the exact same content twice or leave duplicate comments.
- Do not post topics or comments that are factually incorrect or irrelevant to US visa scheduling.
What r/usvisascheduling Is For
This community is for people who are dealing with issues on the usvisascheduling.com or ustraveldocs.com websites while trying to book USA visa slots. It is also a place to ask questions about the USA visa application process. The subreddit is not official and is not affiliated with the official portal or the US Department of State. People come here to crowdsource information and look up problems others have faced before.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
The rules that decide whether a marketing-adjacent post survives are "No Agents or Spammers or VO/CO or Redact", "Remember the Human", "No Duplicate Post/Comment", "No AI Generated Content", and "No Irrelevant/Untrue Topic/Comment". The "No Agents or Spammers or VO/CO or Redact" rule is the one that will get you banned fastest if you slip into promotion. The "No AI Generated Content" rule means every word you write must be your own.
What To Post
A good post here is a genuine question or experience about using the usvisascheduling.com or ustraveldocs.com website. You could write about a specific error you hit, a confusing step in the process, or a scheduling problem you are trying to solve. The goal is to crowdsource help from people who may have faced the same issue. Keep your post written by you, in your own words, and focused on the US visa scheduling process. If you are a founder doing respectful Reddit marketing, the only safe move is to participate as a real person sharing a real problem or insight, with no product pitch attached.
What To Avoid
You will be banned if you post images of available slots or promise to help for a payment. The same applies if you spam weird messages or comments. Anyone claiming to be a current or former consulate employee, visa officer, or consulate officer will be banned because the moderators see those claims as fake or as attempts to sell a service. You also cannot discuss, review, or give feedback on any agencies. AI-generated posts and comments are not allowed. Exact duplicate posts and duplicate comments by the same user will be removed. Topics or comments that are factually incorrect or irrelevant to the subreddit will also be removed.

Can I use AI to help write my post?

Exact duplicates of posts and duplicate comments by the same user will be removed.
