Should You Share Your US Visa Scheduling Account With Someone?
What can go wrong when you share your US visa scheduling login, what a trustworthy service should and shouldn't ask for, and how to limit the risk.
Your US visa scheduling account holds your appointment, your fee receipt and personal data, so sharing its login is a real decision, not a formality. Anyone with access can reschedule — using up your one free reschedule — or cancel. If you choose to let a service act for you, share access only after you have verified who they are, never through a public web form, change your password afterwards, and keep your security answers to yourself where you can. AppointVisa asks for account access only after it has spoken to you, over a private channel, and only when the work needs it. AppointVisa is a US visa appointment assistance service for applicants in India, handled by a dedicated booking team. Customers pay a small pre-payment to start; it is refunded in full if AppointVisa does not secure a booking by the agreed deadline, and the balance is due only once the agreed appointment is secured. The advance is not refunded if the customer cancels after monitoring has started.
- Account access lets someone reschedule or cancel your appointment — including using your one free reschedule.
- Never type your login into a public form or send it to someone you haven't verified.
- Change your password once the work is done.
- A legitimate service tells you exactly what it will do with access, and when.
What someone can do with your login
- See and change your appointment, including rescheduling or cancelling it.
- Use your one free reschedule (a second change means paying the fee again).
- See the personal details in your profile and applications.
Red flags
- Asking for your password on a website form before anyone has spoken to you.
- Promising a guaranteed date or visa.
- Asking for full payment before doing anything, with no written refund terms.
- Refusing to say who will use your account, and when.
If you decide to share access
- Verify the business first: name, phone, written terms and refund policy.
- Share over a private channel, not a public form, and only after a conversation.
- Agree in writing what they will and won't change.
- Change your password and review your appointment once the work is complete.

We never ask for your login on the website. If the work needs account access, our team asks for it only after speaking with you, over a private channel, and tells you what we will change. You can change your password at any time. Our privacy policy explains how we store and delete this information.

Frequently asked questions
Is it against the rules to let someone book for me?
Check the current terms of the official scheduling portal yourself. Many applicants have family members or representatives handle scheduling; what matters is that you trust them and stay in control of your account.
What should I do after the appointment is booked?
Log in yourself, confirm the details, print the confirmation, and change your password.
