The part most visa checkers leave out: what actually needs doing before you fly.
Confirm with the official source
Rules change without notice, and only the immigration authority of United States can tell you where you stand. Search for its official site before you travel.
Check your passport
Passport validity required: 6 months longer than the duration of stay. Renew first if you are close, because this is the most common reason travellers are turned away.
Allow enough time
Apply well before you fly. Processing times move with demand, and a booked trip is not a reason for an embassy to hurry.
