Beginning November 1, 2006, all applicants for U.S. non-immigrant visas will be required to submit an Electronic Visa Application Form (EVAF) completed on-line at http:\/\/moldova.usembassy.gov. This is the renewed version of the old visa application form DS-156, consul of the U.S. Embassy in Moldova, Marlin J. Hardinger, told a news conference on Tuesday. <\/p>\n

The EVAF is available in English and prints with a two-dimensional ("2-D") barcode that allows consular personnel to electronically scan more than 30 data fields into consular computer systems in a matter of seconds. Since the EVAF was introduced in 2003, the amount of time saved on data entry has increased dramatically, allowing U.S. consular officials to attend to visa applicants far more rapidly than in the past. “Though not previously mandatory, the EVAF is already used by nearly 90% of all applicants for U.S. visas,” Hardinger said. <\/p>\n

The applicant should sign manually the printed EVAF and then call the Embassy and schedule an appointment. Applicants who appear for their visa interviews without a completed EVAF will experience delays in the processing of their application. <\/p>\n

Also, the U.S. Embassy in Moldova has set up a public email address (Chisinau-ca@state.gov) by which one can ask questions and receive answers. <\/p>\n

The consul specified that the visas for the U.S. are free, but the procedure for obtaining them costs US $100. \/\/ Reporter.MD<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
