So I am an Indian citizen and I used to live in Canada when I got my B1/B2 visa. When I got my US visa, I was working just working a very simple job in Canada as a cashier in Walmart and wanted the visa to simply visit the border cities of the US near my Canadian town. My visa was issued in 2012 for 10 years and is valid for a few more years. The only thing is that instead of working now, I am doing my Masters in Singapore. I want to know that since my visa was issued in Canada, can I still use that visa to travel to US from Singapore? Despite being an Indian citizen? Also since there is such a massive change in my situation, should I actually try to get a new visa? 

 

I want to travel to US but I am at the same time really worried because

 

A: My visa was not issued in India.

B: I am not travelling from India.

C: When my visa was issued my life was very different than it is right now.

 

Considering all this, I'm not sure if it is a good idea to travel. I certainly do not want to be denied entry to the US because of the above mentioned reasons which will hamper my chances of not just getting a US visa but visa for other countries too. I would like to know what you all think about this. Am I worrying too much for no reason?

You are worrying too much. The United States issued the visa- it doesn’t matter what country you were in. As long as it is still valid you can still travel. That’s not to say you could not be denied at entry as only US citizens are guaranteed entry. If the officer believes you will stay in the US and not just visit you could be denied, for example.

Dude, you’re overthinking. When they give people 10 year visas, they are fully aware many things can change in someone’s life over that time! I would suggest you take with evidence of why you have reason to return home after your trip, which is always a good idea traveling on a B visa anyway.
