May I apply for a visa instead of using the VWP? wrote:Travelers who are eligible for the VWP may apply for a visitor (B) visa, if they prefer to do so. If you do not meet all of the criteria explained in this webpage, then you must apply for a visa. Additionally, you need to apply for a visa if you will be traveling on a private aircraft or other non-VWP approved air or sea carrier. Review the approved carriers list. Also, if you intend to extend your stay beyond 90 days or change your status once in the United States (for example, you intend to request change of status to student or temporary worker, etc.), then you need to apply for a visa.
Thank you! I already have an ESTA(valid till 2017) Do you think that they will do me a problem in the interview to get a visa if I already have an ESTA?vinny wrote:May I apply for a visa instead of using the VWP? wrote:Travelers who are eligible for the VWP may apply for a visitor (B) visa, if they prefer to do so.
