    Hi folks,

    who do you make the draft out to when you are paying for your visa application?

    Yes, I got a B1/B2 6 month Tourist visa last April and I got my bank draft denominated in EURO payable to "U.S. Embassy"

    just a bit of advice and I know it may sound stupid but make sure the teller gets the bank manager to sign both parts of the draft. We got ours last year and when we gave it in to pay it was only signed on one part so we ended up paying by credit card.

    FYI, you can get it in either Euro or Dollars, I would opt for $$ as it rarely changes, however the exchange rate can change at any time and I've been in situations before where the € bank draft wasn't accepted because it was a few cents off.

    I called them (on the €2.50 a minute line) and they confirmed that it's "U.S. Embassy" for bank drafts. Whoever I spoke with said that they'd pass on the news that this information does not appear on the website.
