Regarding Guillermos successful and quick visa approval, I also went with self business owner, and I've been tracking in Excel those reporting approvals/denials and what they went with. From my crude data keeping, having your own business takes your chances of a fast approval WAY up above the other options. That's what I went with in Chicago and got a 3 day approval.

Im doing this route for Chicago. Do you have a definitive list to help speed it up? My biggest concern is I don’t usually keep that much cash liquid but I can deposit before applying.

It's great to gather data but each embassy is different and requirements are constantly changing.
