General Visa Information
The sites http://www.unitedstatesvisas.gov and http://travel.state.gov have
information about obtaining a visa for those traveling
to the United States. Both sites have links to websites
for U.S. embassies and consulates worldwide. The embassy
and consulate websites have very helpful information
about procedures, time lines, communities served, required
documentation, and fees.
