Has anyone from the US recently applied for the electronic 1-year visa "stamp"? I'm wondering how long the wait is. I submitted electronically to the embassy in DC.

When applying for an e-visa in the USA-

1. does one have to be physically present in the US for this?

2. does the itenerary have to be flying out a US airport

3. does one have to apply to the embassy closest to where their bank account mailing address is?

Im here in retirement visa. I’m planning on going back to US mid-May to attend best friends wedding and be for a month Would love to get my Thai partner to be there with family and friends but I know I know not easy.

I think it’s about assets and perceived escape potential.

She owns property, homes, has teenage daughters she’s responsible for, job but not regular like corporate income. We’ve together a little less than a year - that may be a qualifying or disqualifying factor.

Don’t tell me it’s not easy I know - but maybe there is the right person to ask and maybe make it happen. Like an agency

Thanks

Hi. I am a doctor from Nepal. I am currently looking for options to be at the United States for my exam that I must attend before summer ends. The US embassy's here and the neighbouring countries are yet to re-operate B1/B2 visa after Covid restrictions. Is it possible for me to gain B1/ B2 visa from Thailand or some other countries?

Thank you very much for your answers!!

Hi all, has anyone in the US successfully filled out a tourist visa online? I am confused by the last 4 questions requiring documents uploaded. I have tried contacting embassy for clarification but no reply.

7 . "Confirmation of legal residence in a country in which you are applying for the visa. (In case that you are not a national of the country in which you are applying for the visa.)"

I have already uploaded my passport and filled out my address in previous sections. Is this question referring non US citizens only?

8. "Applicant is required to upload his/her passport pages which contain all travel records for the past 12 months (1 year) since the last international trip."

I have not done any international travel in the last 12 months. Do I just not upload anything?

9. Applicant must apply for e-Visa via specific Embassy/Consulate conforming with his/her consular jurisdiction and residency. Applicant is required to upload document that can verify his/her current residency.

What did you all use for this? I was thinking a photo of my drivers license?

10. "Please upload your picture holding the photo and information page of the passport."

Are they asking for me to take a picture of myself holding the passport bio page up?

Sorry if this seems kind of dumb but I am finding the wording of these questions confusing.
