I see that<br>
from Yesterday - I should get an eVisa...... and that applications take<br>
at least two days and up to seven days....<br>
<br>
I hold a UK Passport... ho hum...<br>
<br>
I'm unsure why there should be an extra 1$ service fee - as the usual<br>
$50 should surly include all service fees? The $1 is no biggie - but as<br>
the folks who would check visitor visa's now should have less to do -<br>
would that not cove the $1???? :-)<br>
<br>
Part of the instructions read that you can not scan photographs, yet the<br>
system depends on you scanning photographs...<br>
<br>
After uploading a (scanned) picture, I entered the Visa section.<br>
<br>
I'm confused as to why it wants another picture of me???<br>
<br>
I'm hoping that it'll store everything - so every time I (re)apply for a<br>
visa - it already knows my previous answers - which generally will not<br>
change.<br>
<br>
Lastly - anyone know why it should take up to seven (working?) days????<br>
<br>
Anyone know any of the developers?<br>
<br>
<br>
So glad its not compulsory for the next 60 days.. :-)<br>
