(1) The validity period of the passport is about to expire;
(2) The passport visa page is about to be used up;
(3) The passport is damaged and cannot be used;
(4) the passport is lost or stolen;
(5) Other circumstances that justify the need to renew or reissue passports. There are two ways to renew a 1-year visa in the United States when it expires:
(1) CITIC Bank delivers materials without interview
(2) Matters needing attention when booking an embassy interview: When renewing any kind of American visa, you can apply for interview-free service as long as your visa conditions meet the following three requirements.
1. The existing visa is still valid or the expiration date is not more than 12 months; (Some kinds of American visas can be renewed within 48 months, but some are only allowed to be renewed within 12 months after expiration, so the shortest time is taken here)
2. Applicants must apply for visas of the same type;
3. Applicants must apply in the consular district where their permanent residence is located, and there is no limit on the number of visa renewals in the United States. However, there are special requirements for work visa, study visa, etc. When you apply for face-to-face visa for work visa, your work must be the same as the one you applied for last time. If there is any change, you need to apply for a new visa, and so does your study visa. If your school in the United States changes, you need to apply for face-to-face visa again. How to apply for a tourist visa to the United States after the expiration of ten years? It is impossible to apply for a tourist visa to the United States now, let alone for ten years. Because of the epidemic and the security situation in the United States, it is best to stay at home now, so don't go. Is the US ten-year visa still valid? You said it should be a US ten-year visa. This means that American visas are valid for ten years. For example, if you apply for a visa in March 22, its visa will be valid until March 23. This kind of visa mainly refers to the B visa of the United States, that is, the B1/B2 visa, which is issued for business and tourism purposes. Other visa types are not ten years. B-1/B-2 business travel visas are mainly for short-term business travel (B-1) or sightseeing/seeking medical services (B-2). Generally speaking, B-1 visas are issued to applicants who go to the United States to engage in short-term business activities, attend conferences in the fields of science and technology/education/specialty/business, dispose of real estate or negotiate contracts. B-2 visas are issued to applicants who go to the United States for leisure/entertainment, including sightseeing, visiting relatives and friends, medical treatment and other social, social or service activities. B-1 and B-2 visas are usually combined and issued as one type of visa: B-1/B-2. What should I do if my ten-year visa expires in the United States? If my visa expires abroad, I must go to the local immigration office in time to go through the extension procedures. If it is necessary to extend the stay period after the visa expires in a foreign country for some special reasons, it should be:
1. If it is necessary to extend the stay period, an application for extension should be submitted to the immigration authorities of that country in advance within the valid stay period allowed by the visa. If the reason is sufficient, it may be granted an extension. If it is not granted, you must return to your country to apply for a legal entry visa before you can legally go again.
2. If the applicant fails to apply for extension within the period of stay, and both the validity period and the period of stay of the visa have expired, and I have not left the country, then I must apply to the destination country for extension with the corresponding valid certification materials. So as not to be punished as illegal residents. Is the 1-year American visa still valid? There is no fixed limit on the maximum stay in each year for a 1-year American visa, but you can usually stay for up to 6 months (18 days) each time you enter the country.
For the people of China, the biggest difference is that China citizens who go to the United States don't have to queue up at the consulate every year to wait for their visas, and they can also avoid the $16 fee for each renewal. The validity of tourist visas and business visas has been extended to 1 years, while the validity of study visas has been extended to 5 years. Previously, tourist visas and business visas were valid for one year.
But getting a tourist visa for 1 years doesn't mean you can stay in the United States for 1 years. The validity of a visa and the period of stay in the United States are two concepts. The extension of the validity of the new visa to 1 years does not mean that the stay period has changed. The applicant only obtains the qualification to enter the United States, and the specific stay period will be given by the US immigration official according to the situation after arrival. According to the relevant provisions of American law, the short-term visa stay period generally does not exceed 18 days. Can you still apply for a ten-year visa in the United States? First, can you stay in the United States after the visa expires? When you enter the country with a tourist visa, the border inspectors will give you a stay time after entry, which is usually half a year. If your visa expires in five days when you enter the country, you don't need to worry at this time. Finally, it depends on the time you can stay in the country, so you don't have to worry about the expiration of your visa. You can continue to renew it after returning to China to facilitate your next trip. Second, can I have a good working life after my visa expires? This is not allowed. This is illegal residence, let alone working. There are many different kinds of visas in the United States, such as study visas, work visas, tourist visas, etc. The nature of each visa can be understood literally. Tourism is tourism, and you can't do anything unrelated to tourism. If you are found, you will be sent back and blacklisted, and you will never be able to go to the United States again. Regarding the second point, although it is not allowed, there are not a few people who used this channel to work in the past. To put it bluntly, they are working as illegal workers without identity. They can finally change their small bordeaux books into dark blue books through local lawyers and some channels. I don't encourage you to do this, because gold will shine everywhere. As long as you have the ability, you will realize your dreams wherever you work. Why take the risk? According to the agreement reached between China and the United States, since November 12, 214, citizens of both sides can obtain multiple entry visas for up to 1 years when applying for business and tourism in the other country, and the visa for studying abroad is also extended to 5 years. This provides great convenience for Chinese people to travel to the United States, visit relatives and engage in business work. At the same time, however, many people mistakenly think that a 1-year multiple-entry visa means that they can enter and leave the United States at will within 1 years because they don't know much about visas. In fact, they can't understand this. A 1-year multiple-entry visa has a specific meaning and there are some special requirements.
first, there will be a time limit for each stay. A 1-year multiple-entry visa means that you can enter the United States many times within 1 years, but it does not mean that you can stay in the United States for 1 years at a time. How long you stay in the United States each time depends on the nature of your trip and visit. How long you can stay depends on the decision of the US border law enforcement officers when you enter the customs. The longest stay can be 18 days, that is, 6 months.
second, you have to go through an online procedure before you enter the United States. Since November 216, China citizens have to update their personal information in the Electronic Visa Renewal System (EVUS) after obtaining a ten-year visa to the United States, and they can only go to the United States after being confirmed by the system. There is no charge for this system at present, and it may be charged in the future. Registration once can be maintained for two years, and you need to log in again to update your personal information after two years.
Third, neither a tourist visa nor a business visa is a work visa, so even if you have a 1-year visa, it does not mean that you can work in the United States. Don't take chances. Not long ago, according to American media reports, the US Immigration Bureau is paying close attention to the problem of illegal immigrants, especially those who are overdue.
