Potential new US Visa requirements

#1 Postby johnk » Sat Jan 28, 2017 11:41 am

Seems that the US President is about to sign off on a requirement that tourist visas to the States are only issued after a face to face interview with an appropriate US official, as is already the case with business visas. In Australia, they only have a presence in Sydney & Melbourne.

Is this going to be a concern for the teams to Connaught? Are you travelling through the States & if so, will you need a visa for that?

Most will be travelling direct to Canada via Brisbane or Sydney, though a few will be travelling individually via USA.

Seems that the circumstance has changed since first reported & tourists' visas & access will remain the same as it was before the Executive Order.
