Mail in Application or Interview

[Mitch0526 1]

Hello,

I am a US citizen applying for a US tourist visa for my 2 month old daughter. We are just sticking with Chinese citizenship and getting a visa for her, just like her mother did. We have the option of doing the mail in application or interview. Obviously it would save a lot of hassle to mail it in, but I just wanted to make sure the success rate is the same for both. I could definitely explain in person better that she wouldn't immigrate through giving our story, but mailing it in would save a lot of trouble.

Should we just mail it in? Would there be any risk involved?

This is what it says in my application:

You qualify for the Drop Box and can continue the process by clicking "Continue".

If you want to opt for an interview, please click "Interview" and chose the location for your interview.

Isn't your daughter automatically a US citizen? How long have you spent in the US?

She's not registering with the US embassy as a citizen. Our family lives in China together.
