an instruction sheet from <strong>G3</strong> <strong>Visas</strong> & <strong>Passports</strong>, Inc., the visa service we<br />

recommend. Please note that there are additional requirements listed for<br />

travelers under age 18.<br />

We recommend that you apply for your visa 6-12 weeks prior to your US<br />

departure. If you wish to apply for your visa more than 12 weeks in<br />

advance of departure, please email GLA@g3visas.com to discuss your visa<br />

processing. Please use a delivery service with a tracking number, such as<br />

FedEx or USPS Express Mail, when sending in your passport and application<br />

to the visa service.<br />

Please ensure that your passport has at least two sets of blank pages marked<br />
