If you started new application and the trick doesn't work, I have a SOLUTION Clear your browser cookie and cache and preferably try a different browser and the first time, the trick described in the video works flawlessly in my experience! Thanks for the awesome video! Thanks to you I am past this extremely annoying problem!!! Can't thank you enough!!!! Likely what happens is the new application start, creates a cookie and from then on, this stupid website just forgets the existing receipt and give you hell
Hello friend, if you start a new application did you have to pay for the fees again or were you able to claim your receipt again in the new application?
Thanks for the video it helped me. So guys if you are trying to claim the receipt using payment confirmation number and payment date and it does not show payment credited, as shown in this video just select any payment method and submit. On next page it shows credit.
This video and your response @HasmukhDesai-sl3zg saved immense potential frustration. We never received the Payment Receipt. We had paid the MRV ( via credit card ) but could not get slots in the local VAC. Hence had to change the VAC for which we had to create a new DS160 and in USAVisaScheduling close the current application and start a new application. The portal had a "Claim Receipt" button on the following screen that asked for the receipt number and date to be input - we did not have the receipt number. Based on your advice, proceeded with Payment Options and just selected Debit/Credit option, and voila the next screen showed the receipt number. Hopefully, this info will save others in the community from potential days / weeks of wait, no response and/or endless frustration.
@@rajnishxkapur Hello, Even I'm kind of in the same situation but i do have the receipt no, so if I close & start a new application as I need to update my ds-160.Are you sure i will be able to claim the receipt (This is for B1/B2 Visa)?
@@curious-me379 if you have the receipt number then you can input that in the work flow when asked for. If you have not taken the appointment I think you can transfer the paid MRV to the new DS160 and appointment. It does not matter if it is a B1 B2 visa
You are a lifesaver man. I'm very much thankful to you. I Closed the application and created 2 times, but it still worked for me. I tried to call them and raised ticket, but they were not replying to anything. This video really helped me a lot. God bless you for helping others.

What if we entered a wrong ds 160 number while booking the appointment. The ds 160 num and the visa reference number have to be same as per new rule. Can we now click on close application and enter correct details and book the slot?
In my case the reference number is different but everything else is the same. Can I go ahead and click confirm receipt? I also see money to be paid as 0!
Sir, I have been refused earlier in July 2023 when fee amount was $160. However, i booked the date for the December 2023 again and I got the visa confirmation receipt without paying the fee amount of $185. And it is showing the the old amount receipt of $160 and appointment confirmation of both OFC and interview in December. What should I do now and will that affect me in the future? As I want to pay the genuine fee amount but portal doesn't let me paying the amount.

If I need to schedule appointment for individual applicant, but the profile is with the dependents, so can I delete those dependents and schedule appointment for single applicant after paying the visa fees...
After paying the visa fee, I closed the existing application and submitted a new application in the CGI portal. The visa fee payment will be reflected. I initially panicked when it showed a new payment reference, but when you hit submit, the payment reference number will change to the old payment reference. So, no worries, you can close the application and start a new one

Hi Sir, I have query ... I have made a payment for USA Visa fee of 185$ today (using parent's details in credit details) but after receiving the Fee Receipt I checked it took my parent name in the Applicant Name Section under under Apllicant Details...

I need k1 visa appointment. can you help me I have filled DS 160 form. The embassy fee has also been deposited. Now only biometric and interview appointment remains. Can you make an appointment?
After the Visa fee activated, I could two options - Schedule appointment & “close and start new app” …. I have some errors in my ds160 and I need to update the da160 reference before I book the appointment.… Would it be possible at this step? Or should I “cancel and start new app” then will it provide me an option to give new ds160 and will the fee be activated here ?
Can you please tell me what you did for that. I need to change petitioner name on the form as well. Is cancel and start new app reflect your payment receipt.

Hello sir, I created profile in the new portal for my parents b2 visa renewal. I paid fees and claimed receipt of payment and it took me to schedule appointment page. However I did not see any Dropbox or interview waiver confirmation for them as I think they are eligible for Dropbox. I might have answered one of the interview waiver question incorrectly. I need to correct the answer to see if that will give them interview waiver confirmation. Will closing application and starting new one cause any issues? Will my fee payment transfer over?

Followed the step explained on this video, but it didn't work for my parents petition. We paid fee back in Aug 2022. Is there any expiry date on the MRV receipts?

Hi..!!
Once we have attended VAC & VI and If Visa is Rejected... In the new Portal I see that for F1 Fee payment is showing in the Dashboard . Why ?
it will be still active after Visa Rejection also.... I hope For the next Appointment we need to Pay the Visa Fee correct ? Then Why in the new CGI Portal it is showing like that and in the side left panel it is showing the Appointment confirmation But No Date is Mentioned.... Can you let me know How to fix it.... Is the Payment still Active ? Or Once rejected we need to Start a New Application ?
My parents visa got rejected on Thursday, to start the application again not able to find the option still showing previous appointment details. Any thoughts on this
Hi
Need your immediate support
I already had my ofc and consular appointment scheduled in May 2024. I was trying to add my dependent in my application and for this i clicked on close application and start new application. And while at it I got an email that my existing appointment has been cancelled
Now my appointment is lost, my money is lost, their support team is not helping as they are saying that if you click on close application then your entire application gets closed, even your appointment.
What should I do now?? I didn't cancelled it, i got no msg saying it will get cancelled. Plz help. I am helpless
Thank you so much Sir for sharing this information but still I have stuck in other step if someone paid the visa fees in the year 2021 so can we claim that fees??
Yes till 30th sep 2023 ..fees remain active
@@eagle9visaconsultants666 If I had my fees on May 2023, how long will it be active?
Thank you so much buddy. This video saved me a lot of trouble
My parents visa got rejected couple of days back, now to start the new application I am not able to see start application or continue application. Any thoughts on this
Should i add dependents before fee payment or i should add dependent after fee payment?
Hello Sir, I ahve question.
I got B1/B2 visa in june 2023, but now in I want to apply for j1 visa. can Iuse the same payment for this again?
I have a more complex issue, i am able to see the reciept number but it results in an error and it results in attempt exceeded as well. In order to get the same option again, i need to close the application and redo it. The only rdifference with profile of an old portal and new portal is a difference in my username. Not sure what to do next.
looking forward to hearing from you.
were you able to find the solution @user-yz2qg2fd5h ???
Can we see details shared in new portal after paying fee of slot booking? Is it possible to edit them before appearing for visa interview?
Hello! I am trying to book the appointment but after selecting the date and VAC the portal is taking me back to the main page. I chose pick up option along with the center multiple times for j1 interview waiver but my application is not going through. Do you have any solution for that? Thank you so much!
Thank you sir for this useful video. I could see reschedule appointment 1 week before but I panic when I didn't see the option. However, in my payment page I am seeing "Claim receipts". In this case should I follow same process or just click on claim receipts button. Please help!
Same is happening with me. Please help
Hi Sir,
If we have already paid the fee and want to close application just to rectify the drobbox option. Can we close the aplication and then activate the fee later in the new application through reference number ?
Mostly fees are automatically getting activated … but this new portal many things are unpredictable …
What if we entered a wrong ds 160 number while booking the appointment. The ds 160 num and the visa reference number have to be same as per new rule. Can we now click on close application and enter correct details and book the slot?
Bro
You are never the less than an angel for me. for 1 month i was trying here and there
Thank you so much for this hack. It was really helpful to solve the technical issue of my son's application.
Thanks for the video sir very useful
One question is how to add dependent profile for appointment after paying fees in one primary profile
In my case the reference number is different but everything else is the same. Can I go ahead and click confirm receipt? I also see money to be paid as 0!
Sir, I have been refused earlier in July 2023 when fee amount was $160. However, i booked the date for the December 2023 again and I got the visa confirmation receipt without paying the fee amount of $185. And it is showing the the old amount receipt of $160 and appointment confirmation of both OFC and interview in December. What should I do now and will that affect me in the future?
As I want to pay the genuine fee amount but portal doesn't let me paying the amount.
Hi please tell me what happened afterwards?
Same thing happened with me I genuinely want to pay my visa fees but they won't let me, I wonder if they will create any problem at the time of biometric and interview.
hey, please help me I'm facing the same issue.are you able to pay the fees ??
I have closed my application because I was unable to schedule my appointment?? What to do now? Do I have to pay fees again?
Did yu claim your fees back or paid it again? Pls advise as I have same problem
Thank you a lot brother, it helped me to activate my fees receipt.
Dear Sir, I made appointment months ago but I was not able to login to new website. I need to reschedule my November 9th appointment. Customer care told me to create new account with same email address and name as old site. I did that but even no!w, I only see Start New Application option. My data not carried forward to new database. Please advise
If I need to schedule appointment for individual applicant, but the profile is with the dependents, so can I delete those dependents and schedule appointment for single applicant after paying the visa fees...
After paying the visa fee, I closed the existing application and submitted a new application in the CGI portal. The visa fee payment will be reflected. I initially panicked when it showed a new payment reference, but when you hit submit, the payment reference number will change to the old payment reference. So, no worries, you can close the application and start a new one
Hie
I am facing issue while scheduling an appointment for dependent profile .i cannot see the submit button.Also I have paid fees for two people but I can see in only single person’s fee details in the portal.
Hi Sir, I have query ... I have made a payment for USA Visa fee of 185$ today (using parent's details in credit details) but after receiving the Fee Receipt I checked it took my parent name in the Applicant Name Section under under Apllicant Details... Does having a different name in fee receipt might cause a risk during my Visa Interview or a reject?! Please help me out with this Sir, would be thankful to you if you could answer my query ?!
I need k1 visa appointment. can you help me I have filled DS 160 form. The embassy fee has also been deposited. Now only biometric and interview appointment remains. Can you make an appointment?
After the Visa fee activated, I could two options - Schedule appointment & “close and start new app” ….
I have some errors in my ds160 and I need to update the da160 reference before I book the appointment.…
Would it be possible at this step? Or should I “cancel and start new app” then will it provide me an option to give new ds160 and will the fee be activated here ?
Can you please tell me what you did for that. I need to change petitioner name on the form as well. Is cancel and start new app reflect your payment receipt.
@@PriyankaSharma-bt3fl Hey did you resolve this, its kind of urgent and i'm having the same issue.
This hack worked for me as well.. Great finding
Hi All, i have close and start the application and for my wife the reciept show Not Paid. What can i do? I tried calling customer care but no use. I raised a case with them but no luck.
Hello sir, I created profile in the new portal for my parents b2 visa renewal. I paid fees and claimed receipt of payment and it took me to schedule appointment page. However I did not see any Dropbox or interview waiver confirmation for them as I think they are eligible for Dropbox. I might have answered one of the interview waiver question incorrectly. I need to correct the answer to see if that will give them interview waiver confirmation. Will closing application and starting new one cause any issues? Will my fee payment transfer over?
U can go to close and start application and answer the questions correctly ..fees will reflect back
@@eagle9visaconsultants666 Thanks sir for your prompt response. Just wanted to recheck with you before proceeding. Someone told me that if we close and restart the application more than 3 times, the profile will be locked. I already closed and restarted the application 3 times in the past as i had other issues with adding dependents etc. Do you know if there is an issue like this with profile locking up?

I paid visa fee in old portal, the new portal says two receipts are ready to claim but there is no reference number or receipt number. Now we do not even have old portal access, there seems to be no other way to claim the receipt number.
Hi Thank for video, I am having booked appointment in old portal which is not been seen in new portal. i tried your method for claiming the fee receipt but on clicking continue application it goes to delivery option which i choose and update and it just comes to home page. I am not able to view the payment option page. Is there any solution for this? I written in feedback portal but have no answer from past one month.
Thank you
