US social media vetting is triggering widespread visa appointment cancellations: Here’s how

Applicants in India and elsewhere face postponed appointments, career disruptions, and travel uncertainty. Reduced consulate capacity and digital scrutiny have transformed routine visa procedures into high-stakes evaluations where online behavior now shapes international mobility.
