@Carlos ********
 Nothing to do with technology. They are just verifying that people who have rabbit cards are actually the ones who bought them.

GiftedFish5406 They are verifying cards vs passports. It's only going to be for cards that are older than a year, but how old isn't actually known.

@Penny *****
 If you already have the 90 day non-O visa then you don't have to worry about source of funds. But you are not getting any 1-year visa. You will be getting a 1-year extension. There is a huge difference, and you need to use the correct terminology.
