New Visa Waiver Pilot Program – Renew US Visa (B,F,J,M,O)Without Attending Interview

US Embassy is launching New Interview Waiver Pilot Program for certain Non-Immigrant Visa categories.

In plain simple English – Certain non-immigrant USA Visa holders can renew USA visa without attending the interview.

President Obama announced that the Departments of State and Homeland Security are working together to improve and speed up the visa process for certain categories of travelers.

This new pilot program permits consular officers to waive interviews for some qualified non-immigrant applicants worldwide who are renewing their visa within 48 months of the expiration of their previously held visa, and within the same classification as the previous visa.

In China, many previous holders of B (temporary visitors for business/pleasure), C1 (transit), D (crewmembers), F (students), J (exchange visitors), M (nonacademic students), and O (visitors with extraordinary ability) visas will be able to renew their visas if they have been expired less than 48 months (four years), without another interview.

 

This will benefit tens of thousands of applicants in China, saving them time and money, and making it easier for them to travel to the United States more frequently. It will also free our resources to interview more first-time applicants, and to do so quickly.

While this new initiative will open as many as 100,000 appointments for first time visa applicants, our consular officers continue to have the authority to interview any applicant who they determine requires a personal interview.

Interview Waiver Pilot Program

  • On February 13, Mission China will launch a pilot program to streamline visa processing by permitting consular officers to waive interviews for some qualified nonimmigrant applicants worldwide who are renewing their visa within 48 months (four years) of the expiration of their previously held visa, and within the same classification as the previous visa. In China, previous holders of B (temporary visitors for business/pleasure), C1 (transit), D (crewmembers), F (F1, F2 students visa), J (exchange visitors), M (nonacademic students), and O (visitors with extraordinary ability) visas can renew their visas if they have been expired less than 48 months (four years).
  • Over the course of the year, this policy could open as many as 100,000 interview appointments for Chinese travelers applying for visas for the first time.

If you read the underlined sentence above, its says worldwide.

This New US Visa Interview Waiver program was announced in US Embassy in China.

Official press release (below) is bit confusing. Is the new nonimmigrant visa waiver program applies to all the countries or just China and Brazil.

Today, the Departments of State and Homeland Security announced a pilot program to simplify and speed up the non-immigrant visa process for certain applicants, including the ability to waive interviews for some very low-risk applicants, such as individuals from any country renewing non-immigrant visas, or, in Brazil, younger or older first-time applicants. Link to fact sheet HERE for more information.

We have to wait and see if same Non-Immigrant Visa waiver program will be implemented in other US Embassy and Consulates around the world.

Update (Feb/12/2012) – This Pilot Visa Waiver program is only in China .

Wicked Desires: Steamy Sex Stories [Kindle Edition]

Steamy Sex Stories is part one in a hot new erotica series called Wicked Desires. Stimulate your senses with this book of adult stories. Discover how these singles, couples and groups satisfy some of their wildest sexual desires in these steamy sex stories. Adults only 18+ Love this book! This raunchy adult book of short stories really gets your hormones racing. Each word drips with lust, passion and unadulterated sex. My husband and I enjoy reading a story each night when in bed, but we rarely get to finish a story before the action heats up. Thanks to this author for my newly rediscovered brilliant sex life. I thought that this book would at least be erotic stories with a little more plot, character development, etc. Instead, it came across as a mistitled edition of Penthouse Letters - all sex and nothing else. Normally for me, that is okay but if I want that, I read Penthouse Letters, not a supposed collection of "stories" that read as nothing more than fantasies of the author.

How To Make Money With Facebook

If you always wanted to earn online income but didn’t know where to start, why not jump on the most popular social network site and take advantage of their ad serving platform?


Believe it or not, tens of thousand of people are using Facebook every day to chat with their friends and have fun… while others are making money at the same time.

Would you like to know how to cash-it on this social phenomenon?

Would $5… $50… or $150 in additional income make you happier? What would you do with the “new found” money?

Let’s make it happen, here are three quick steps:

Step #1

Once you have signed up to Facebook your first step should be to think about how you want to present yourself. You don’t want to fake it, just be yourself and showcase your skill, your hobby or knowledge – that is what makes money from Facebook.

Don’t forget that you want to attract the attention of a specific group of people here, so that you become known as someone who is something of an expert on one particular subject. So choose wisely!

Step #2

Go for a popular niche that you personally like and have an interest in. Develop your persona in that area. If you already have something of a web presence in a particular area then you’ll use that in your advantage because — it will help you as more and more people become aware of who you, your skill/knowledge and how this can help them.

Step #3

Your first port of call, if you have anything second hand to sell which is related to your niche, is the Marketplace. It’s free to place ads in the Marketplace and there is no limit on how many you can place.

EXAMPLE: you come across a bargain lot of books on your subject on eBay or at a yard sale you can list them all individually on Facebook and sell them on for a profit.

If you have a budget to spend on advertising and you have some external websites you want to promote, you can try out the Social Ads to see what benefits you get from them. It is well worth reading through the relevant help section to see what is involved though, as it is quite in depth.

FACEBOOK BEST ADVANTAGE:

The main benefit of becoming a Facebook member is that you can build and use any number of applications to perform certain tasks on your profile page.

The GREAT NEWS is that Facebook doesn’t frown at users making money from their Facebook page, and indeed many people link in to other websites outside of Facebook itself.

People are constantly building new applications and often they are used by many other users to create pages that appeal to their own particular needs.

This is partly why you will succeed in making more money from Facebook if you brand yourself carefully before you get started on the site.

BRANDING YOURSELF?

Figure out what it is you want to do and what you want to achieve. If you already have a website up and running then you will be able to link into that, so keep the look and feel of your Facebook page in the same vein as your site.

But while you can link to other sites outside of Facebook, some people also sprinkle some affiliate links on their actual Facebook page itself. For example, some quick research revealed one person who links into a range of ClickBank products on their page and does well from doing so.

So long as you start from a strong position with a particular focus and brand in mind, you can do well by experimenting with all the benefits that Facebook offers (and they’re growing).

Take time to build up a network of friends and make sure you become known for being an expert in your particular sphere of interest/niche.

Exposure is what you should aim for. The more people you make friends with and add to your network, the more money you should be generating. However, don’t make the mistake to go after “friends” for money.

Put people first, money will follow. It’s like in the real life, just a different medium, the same communication skills and principles apply though.

You should always sound, look and act real, don’t pretend to be someone else. People feel it nowadays more than ever.

Global Soap Project

The Global Soap Project collects discarded soap from hotels and reprocesses it into new bars that are given to vulnerable populations throughout the world. Partnering with organizations that have existing operations in these communities, the Global Soap Project ensures the soap is distributed to those in need, with the goal of improving health through personal hygiene. Hand washing with soap is among the most effective and inexpensive ways to prevent diarrhea and pneumonia, which together are responsible for more than 3.5 million child deaths each year. A lack of soap can be a barrier to hand washing at schools, community health clinics and refugee camps in developing countries, which rarely have soap or appropriate hand washing facilities. Your donation of 2,000 Hilton points sends 33 bars of soap to refugees, orphans, birth attendants, teachers, students and vulnerable populations around the world.

RIM PlayBook on sale for $199 ($300 off)

RIM recently announced a massive $300 off its PlayBook tablet. The deal was met with such a strong response that the tablets are sold out at traditional outlets like BestBuy and Staples.

A colleague of mine found that discounted PlayBook units still available directly from the Blackberry website:

http://ca.shopblackberry.com/

Free shipping and if you apply promo code 09OLTY12 you get a further $10 off. Last I checked (3:30 PM EST, 24/11/2011) PlayBooks were still in stock.

MBNA Smart Cash

MBNA is offering a $50 rebate if you apply for and are approved for a Smart Cash credit card through Great Canadian Rebates. For the first 6 months the card returns 5% on purchases of gas/ groceries up to $600 spending per month. After 6 months the cash back drops to 3%. The card has no annual fee.

www.greatcanadianrebates.ca/display/Finance/

Great Canadian Rebates is a portal to which a number of merchants are linked. If you buy through them you receive a cash rebate. I suspect the merchants and site collect data on our spending habits, but I shop with credit cards, so my spending is already tracked. You can receive the rebate as a cheque or as payment to your PayPal account. I have no affiliation to Great Canadian Rebates except as a consumer.

If you plan to apply for the card anyways, why not get $50 for it?

TD Canada Trust offers upto $250 cash for new accounts

TD Canada Trust is once again offering up to $250 cash for customers opening new accounts. I took advantage of this last year as we were in the process of consolidating all our accounts under the TD roof anyways. If you are able to keep a $5,000 balance, the TD Select Service account provides excellent value:

- Unlimited banking, free cheque books, free bank drafts etc.
- Fee waived on the Borderless account.
- Fee waived on the TD Gold Elite Visa card. 1% cash back, Auto club membership and trip interruption insurance.
- A small safe deposit box.

It may not be worth your while to take advantage of this offer just for the $250 bonus because there is a lot of paperwork involved. But if you are planning to switch anyway, the cash is a nice bonus.

Details are available here:
