H-1B visa applicants faced fresh frustration after new appointment slots at the Hyderabad consulate vanished within minutes. What seemed like a brief window of relief quickly turned into disappointment. The sudden release created hope among many waiting for updates.
Several applicants confirmed they managed to book appointments during the brief opening. However, the availability did not last long. Within minutes, the slots were taken, leaving many others unable to secure a booking despite repeated attempts.
Applicants who tried booking at the last moment reported facing errors on the website. Soon after, the portal showed that no slots were available. This added to the ongoing struggle faced by those waiting for visa appointments.
Reports suggest that the limited slots were mostly scheduled for late 2025. This timing does not help applicants looking for appointments in April or May. Many are still waiting for earlier dates to become available.
In recent weeks, similar slot releases have been seen at Hyderabad and Chennai consulates. These openings appear without warning and are filled almost instantly. The unpredictable pattern makes it difficult for applicants to plan.
Due to this random release system, many applicants miss the updates entirely. Most only realise after the slots are already gone. The process now feels highly competitive, with many unable to even access the booking stage.
Some applicants believe that new slots are usually released on Fridays. They suggest others stay alert during that time. However, there is no official confirmation to support this claim yet.
