Why force people to go to a crowded office full of potential carriers? Just make it automatic and check on departure. 50 10 1 Link to post Share on other sites

jackdd 8,425 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Imho this is only for citizens from countries listed on this document. But they didn't write this really clear, so could also be for everybody, but to be sure we have to wait for reports from people next week. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I think the majority of people that will need the extension are here as tourists. Not many people are on a non immigrant visa entry. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites
