Australian söker U.S Visa från Dublin

3

Jag avslutar min 8 veckors semesterresa i Boston för en semesterutbyte på Boston College.

Jag har inte kunnat söka mitt USA-visum innan du lämnar Australien eftersom det finns ett globalt problem med viseringsansökningar.

Jag undrade, när jag avslutar min semesterresa i Dublin kan jag ansöka om visum från Dubais U-ambassad (även om jag är australiensisk)?

Ja. USA har inte samma geografiska krav som många länder har, där sökande måste ansöka på konsulatet vars territorium omfattar sökandens bostad. Även om de gjorde det, är det säkert ett globalt systemavbrott som varar i flera veckor, tillräckligt för ett undantag.

De kanske vill att du ska visa att du är juridiskt i Dublin. Om så är fallet borde det inte vara något problem för dig.

Notera dock att Dublin ambassadens konsulära sektion fortfarande inte kan behandla viseringsansökningar, enligt dagens uppdatering (23 juni 2015) på deras hemsida ( länk ):

Message on Systems Issues from the Bureau of Consular Affairs:

Updated: June 23, 2015.

** Although 22 posts have been reconnected worldwide, Embassy Dublin is not currently one of these posts. **

The Bureau of Consular Affairs continues to experience technical problems with our visa systems.  Though some progress has been made, biometric data processing has not been fully restored.  This is a global issue and our team continues to work on this 24/7 to restore the systems to full functionality.

Once full operability is restored to our visa systems, U.S. Embassy Dublin’s Consular Section will extend its normal business hours, which we expect to include weekend hours, to accommodate all visa applicants affected by this recent outage. 

The problems stem from a hardware failure in a State Department facility in the United States on June 9. That failure is preventing the Department from processing and transmitting biometric data checks at visa-issuing embassies and consulates. We cannot bypass the legal requirements to screen visa applicants before we issue visas for travel.  Each visa decision is a national security decision, and we take our obligation to protect the United States seriously.

We regret the inconvenience to travelers and recognize that this is causing hardship to those waiting for visas, and in some cases, their family members or employers in the United States.  We will continue to post regular updates on our website, travel.state.gov.

Applicants who have already appeared for an interview

Due to these technical issues, we are not currently able to print any visas for visa applicants who have already appeared for an interview.  As a standard practice, we advise people never to make non-refundable travel plans before receiving the necessary travel documents.  Given the nature of this significant technical issue and the timing of your planned travel, you will need to change your travel itinerary as we do not know when our systems will be restored.

If you require your passport back for other travel during this time, please let us know at and we will make those arrangements.

Applicants requesting an appointment for an interview

We understand you have upcoming planned travel and would like to schedule your interview as soon as possible.  However, due to ongoing technical issues, we are not able to accept and process visa applications at this time.  For this reason, no appointments are currently available before July 7.

To schedule an appointment, applicants should log on to http://usvisa-info.com and follow the online instructions carefully.  Once you have scheduled an appointment, you will be able to select “Request Expedite”.   Once the technical problems have been resolved, these requests will be reviewed.  If there is an earlier time available, you will receive an email with a new appointment date and time.

Please remember, do not make non-refundable travel plans before receiving the necessary travel documents.
