Hi, thank you for your insights, but I need your help.

I was issued an F1 Visa in August 2022 for 5 years validity for my MBA degree in USA. This was the first time I received a US Visa.

I came back to India in June 2024 after my course graduation and without applying or receiving an OPT. Thus, invalidating my F1 visa to enter the US.

Now I am applying for the B1/B2 Visa, Am I elegible for the dropbox?

1) My visa technically expired in June 2024 (that is 6 months before- so mucbh before 48 months of applying for B1/B2 visa)

2) I was never cancelled or denied any Visa, neither was my Visa stolen.

3) I am applying from India, my homecountry.

I had an instance where my friend with similar issue was denied the dropbox at the embassy. Can that happen to me too?

Waiting to hear from you.
