US ENTRY FOR NONIMMIGRANTS
If you need a Visa to enter the US please apply for one as
early as possible. Visa applications are now subject to a
greater degree of scrutiny than in the past. For many applicants,
a personal appearance interview is required as a standard
part of visa processing. Additionally, applicants affected
by these procedures are informed of the need for additional
screening at the time they submit their applications and are
being advised to expect delays.
