THANK YOU.

Okay so now we know with 100% certainty that you can go from "amnesty" (which means what ever stamp you had was already expired) to an Elite visa inside the country without any problem..

Great to hear. I got mine last year and was approved in just over 2 weeks. I was amazed how quick it was.

what is taking longer now is the background check (or at least that is what I was told by the elite staff when I talked to them)

sorry

@Ming *****

what we're NOT gonna do is get into a debate about the pros and cons of the elite visa.

Google is your friend in that situation. There is enough info out there about it so you can see what the advantages might be for you.

OR

look on their website

thanx for the update. (y)

Just curious were you on "amnesty" when you got the elite visa sticker stuck in and the new year stamp OR were you on a still valid stamp?
