How many IR2 Visa visas the United States issued in each country, by fiscal year and consulate.
The State Department publishes issuance counts for this visa class but not refusals, so no approval rate exists for it and none is shown here. Figures cover March 2017 to September 2025 (FY2025).
IR2 Visa interview prep
Nothing on this page changes your odds. What happens in the two minutes at the window does. Face a live AI visa officer for the IR2 Visa, answer out loud under follow-up pressure, and get a readiness score with feedback on every answer.
Because one cannot be calculated. The State Department publishes the number of IR2 Visa visas issued at each post, but not the number refused. An approval rate needs both (issued divided by issued plus refused), so any percentage you see quoted for this visa class elsewhere has had its denominator invented. These pages show the issuance counts that genuinely exist.
Volume and direction. How heavily a post processes this class, whether it is growing or shrinking, and how your country compares to others. What they cannot tell you is your odds, for that you would need the refusals.
Generally, you must apply at the consulate that serves your country of residence. Some exceptions may apply for students or temporary residents.
If your country isn't listed, it may be because insufficient data is available or the country processes very few applications for this visa type. Contact the nearest U.S. consulate for more information.
