Etapa por Etapa: Como Tirar o Visto Americano em 2025 com Tranquilidade

Se você está se preparando para uma viagem aos Estados Unidos em 2025, o primeiro grande passo é tirar o visto americano. Embora envolva algumas etapas, o processo pode ser bem tranquilo se você seguir um bom passo a passo — e é exatamente isso que vamos fazer aqui.

A primeira coisa que você precisa é um passaporte válido. Ele deve ter, no mínimo, 6 meses de validade além da data prevista de entrada nos EUA. Se ainda não tem o seu, entre no site da Polícia Federal, preencha os dados e agende uma visita para tirar o documento.

Com o passaporte em mãos, o segundo passo é preencher o formulário DS-160, que é todo em inglês e feito online. Essa parte costuma gerar dúvidas, mas você pode conferir o artigo Como Tirar Visto Americano que explica cada etapa de forma leve e prática, do jeitinho que a gente gosta.

Depois disso, vem o pagamento da taxa MRV, no valor de US$ 185 (cerca de R$ 1.050, a depender do câmbio). Esse pagamento pode ser feito por PIX, boleto bancário ou cartão de crédito. O artigo Quanto Custa o Visto Americano explica direitinho como funciona e o que considerar no planejamento financeiro.

Com tudo isso feito, chega a hora de agendar as visitas ao CASV e ao consulado ou embaixada, que são as duas etapas presenciais do processo. No CASV, você vai tirar digitais e uma foto. No consulado, é a temida (mas geralmente tranquila) entrevista. Quer saber onde fazer cada etapa e como marcar certinho? O artigo Agendamento CASV: Onde Ficam os Centros de Atendimento ao Solicitante de Visto Americano mostra tudo com clareza.

Durante a entrevista, seja objetivo, sincero e leve documentos que comprovem seus vínculos com o Brasil — como comprovantes de renda, matrícula em faculdade, contrato de trabalho ou escritura de imóveis.

Depois da entrevista, é só aguardar. Se tudo estiver certo, o passaporte com o visto chega em poucos dias úteis, na sua casa ou para retirada no CASV.

Dica de ouro: não compre passagens nem faça reservas antes da aprovação do visto. Muita gente se antecipa e acaba perdendo dinheiro.

Com planejamento, paciência e as informações certas, tirar o visto americano em 2025 é totalmente possível — e o primeiro passo para viver uma viagem incrível!

Disney: New Hire, Antecedentes e DS-2019

Sexta – 28 de Outubro de 2016 Querido Diário, No último post sobre a Disney eu falei das taxas que a gente tem que pagar antes de ir, como a de acomodação. Essa é uma das coisas que você tem que fazer logo depois que é aprovado. Isso aconteceu em meados de Setembro e, mais ou menos um mês depois, a STB entrou em contato pedindo pra que a gente pagasse a taxa de Antecedentes Criminais. Esse…

WHAT IS THE DS-160 FORM?

As you go through the requirements of a visa application, there is one term that stands out immediately: the DS-160 form. This document is a requirement to apply for all types of non-immigrant visas but… what exactly is it? Where can you find it? How should you fill it out? What is the cost to access it?

NOT TO WORRY! We have all of the answers you need. The DS-160 form is a document created by the US government for every visa applicant who wants to visit the United States. It is an important step (and the first) within the application process, along with the consular interview at the Embassys and the $160 fee.

You must fill out this document online. The questions are related to your travel plans, your personal information, your criminal and medical background and any relatives that are currently living in the US (if you have any).

Filling out the DS-160 form takes time, because it must be done with a lot of focus. You do not want to make any mistakes in the form! You should also keep in mind that it is very important to be honest and truthful in your answers. Lying in your application is considered to be a serious offense which could get you permanently banned from receiving an american visa.

Where can I access the DS-160 form?

The form is available online, through the website of your nearest US Embassy. Unfortunately, the government’s platform is inconvenient, out of date and not very user-friendly.  You must keep in mind that the website automatically times out after 20 minutes of inactivity and if you have not saved your changes, you will have to log in again and start from scratch. Yep, it’s SUPER frustrating.

You are probably wondering if there is a better way to do this. I am excited to say: THERE IS! When you use OLIVER to apply for a US visa, you fill out a much more simple and accessible form that takes less time to complete. You can also take as long as you need to answer the questions, as there is no time-out on our platform. If you do not wish to fill out the application in one seating, that’s fine too!

How long will it take me to fill out the DS-160 form?

At least an hour. The process can take even longer if you don’t have the right documents at hand. It’s a very good idea to start the process with your passport, resume and travel itinerary within reach. You will also need a point of contact in the United States, and provide their address and telephone number. More on that later.

What sort of questions will I have to answer in the DS-160 form?

The form has multiple sections, divided as follows:

Personal information, such as DOB, nationality and full name.

Contact information

Passport information

Travel information: such as length of stay, date of arrival and travel itinerary.

Information about your previous trips to the United States

Information about your travel companions

Information about your point in contact in the United States: it can be a relative, a friend, a co-worker or an organization. Your hotel contact information is also valid.

Information about your relatives that live in the United States and their status

Information about your current employment

Information about past employment

Security information, including your medical, criminal and immigration background.

OLIVER has developed a simplified form, which can save you a lot of time. Additionally, Oliver’s form includes tips and answers to frequently asked questions that you will not be able to find on the US government platform.

¿What if I make a mistake on my DS-160 form?

The problem is not if, but when. You can correct your DS-160 form as long as long as it’s not signed.Once you’’ve signed and confirm your form, you can no longer change the information provided. If there are any mistakes, you must start the process again, from scratch. That’s why it’s super important to submit a correct and complete application.

With OLIVER, you will never have that problem. We work with visa experts that will review your application to make sure the form is complete and correct.

¿What are the next steps after submitting my DS-160 form?

You must pay the corresponding visa application fees and make an appointment at the nearest US Embassy. OLIVER makes it easy! Pay the fees in our platform and let one of our experts take care of the appointment for you. We will even send you an interview guide so you can ace the process.

In the meantime, start planning your trip!

WHICH ONE DO U NEED?

There are 20 different kinds of non-immigrant visas to the United States, one for every purpose. The most common kind, of course, is the B-1/B-2 visa, usually issued as a combination for tourism and business travel.

Some of the most common non-immigrant workers visas are:

H visas: for specialized and professional workers. There are a variety of subcategories within the H visa, such as the H-1B, which is really popular among foreign professionals who wish to live and work in the United States. There is currently a cap on this visa, so only 65,000 people can get it every year, even though the number of applicants more than doubles that number.

There are also H-1B visas, designed specifically for Chilean and Singaporean citizens. The cap is not applied to applicants who have a passport from any of these countries.

H-2 visas, on the other hand, are for non-specialized workers that work in fields like agriculture and domestic work.

O visas are given to foreigners who can prove their extraordinary abilities in one of the following fields: Business, Athletics, Arts, Education and Sciences. This means that you have demonstrable experience in your field, and your perfomance is above average.

L visas are used when a company that is not based in the United States, but has an office located in the country, wants to transfer a foreign employee to work here, while TN visas were created specifically for citizens of NAFTA member countries (Canada and Mexico) who are professionals in one of 68 approved fields and wish to work in the US.

Students who wish to study in the US have several options. If they are coming as exchange students, they must use a J visa. If they are attending an academic institution approved by the US government, they need an F visa. Students who are coming for vocational training (such as language schools, for example) should apply for an M visa.

You know what all of these visas have in common? You need a DS-160 to obtain any of them!! I know someone who can help with that. Meet Oliver, a simple and accessible way to apply for an american visa.

Question of the Day: “How  long must my passport be valid for in order to visit the US?”

Short answer: Six months, at least.

If you are traveling to the United States, ALWAYS check the validity of your passport in advance. If it is valid for less than six months, the airline will not issue your ticket at the counter, period. Make sure the passport is valid for six months or more, from the day you exit the US (the last day of your trip).

If you have a valid visa stamped on a passport that has expired, you must get a new passport and travel with both documents.

As you are filling out your DS-160 form, make sure the passport you are using will be valid for your trip, as passport and book numbers can vary when you renew your documents and your form must always reflect the documents you will use to visit the United States.
