US launches new visa pilot programme
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that the United States Department of State has announced the launch of a Nonimmigrant Visa Expedited Appointment Pilot Programme.
This programme will now give eligible tourist and business visa applicants the option to pay for a faster interview slot at participating embassies and consulates.
The scheme, which runs until 31 December 2026, is entirely voluntary. Under the programme, applicants for B-category visas, covering tourism and business travel, can pay an additional $750 on top of the standard $185 Machine Readable Visa (MRV) application fee to secure an interview appointment within 10 business days, subject to availability.
