Catat 5 hal penting sebelum kamu mengajukan permohonan #VisaAS 🇺🇸

1️⃣ Kamu bertanggung jawab atas setiap jawaban. Meski dibantu teman, keluarga, atau “agen”, formulir tetap atas nama kamu. Setiap kesalahan atau informasi yang tidak benar menjadi tanggung jawab pemohon.

2️⃣ Jangan kirim formulir yang belum kamu periksa sendiri.
Pastikan semua data, nama, tanggal, detail paspor, riwayat perjalanan, dan tujuan kunjungan sudah benar sebelum kamu submit. Jika ada yang terasa janggal atau tidak kamu pahami, segera perbaiki.

3️⃣ Kejujuran dan ketelitian itu wajib. Informasi yang tidak akurat atau tidak lengkap dapat menyebabkan penundaan, penolakan, atau memengaruhi kelayakan visa AS kamu di masa mendatang. Jika ragu, jangan tebak-tebakan, pastikan dulu kebenarannya.

4️⃣ Jaga keamanan data dan akses pribadimu. Simpan dengan aman nomor konfirmasi, akun login, data paspor, dan bukti pembayaran. Hindari membagikan screenshot layar formulir, serta waspadai pihak yang meminta akses dokumen dan akun kamu.

5️⃣ Gunakan sumber resmi dan kerjakan dengan teliti. Ajukan permohonan hanya melalui situs resmi Pemerintah AS. Simpan progres dan periksa ulang seluruh data dan formulir. Permohonan yang teliti membantu menghindari penundaan dan melindungi kamu dari penipuan.

Iran-backed terrorists like Hizballah have menaced the Middle East, leading to unnecessary deaths of innocents.

UN peacekeepers like Indonesian soldier Farizal Rhomodhon died in pursuit of security for Lebanon and the region.
