The 3 New Rules For American Visa Request
1 - Period for renovation Before the decree, Brazilians had until 48 months after the expiration to renew their visas in the same category without having to do personal interview. Now, the maximum term is 12 months after the due date. After this period, it is necessary to make a new interview.
2 - Interview exemption for adolescents Young people between the ages of 14 and 15 who applied for visas for the first time were exempt from interviewing, but now they will have to be interviewed. The exemption from the interview, however, continues for children up to 13 years.
3 - Exemption from interview for the elderly Before, people aged 66 to 79 did not need to interview. Now, only the elderly from the age of 80 will be excused. The others will have to be interviewed. See the decree published by the American Embassy here. On the official website, however, there is still no update of the new requirements.
