Luật này hiệu lực tới hết tháng 3. Nghĩa là trước kia phải renew trong vòng 12 tháng sau khi hết hạn, thì bây giờ có thể renew trong vòng 24 tháng sau hết hạn. Bác nào confirm phát. <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="😁" title="Beaming face with smiling eyes    :grin:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/6.0/png/unicode/64/1f601.png" data-shortname=":grin:" />----Mail-In Visa Renewal Program updates!Secretary Pompeo, in consultation with the Department of Homeland Security, has temporarily expanded the ability of consular officers to waive the in-person interview requirement for individuals reapplying for a nonimmigrant visa in the same classification.  Previously, only those applicants whose nonimmigrant visa expired within 12 months were eligible for an interview waiver.  The Secretary has temporarily extended the expiration period to 24 months. This policy is in effect until March 31, 2021.  This change will allow consular officers to continue processing certain nonimmigrant visa applications while limiting the number of applicants who must appear at a consular section, thereby reducing the risk of COVID-19 transmission to other applicants and consular staff.<a href="https://vn.usembassy.gov/visas/nonimmigrant-visas/">https://vn.usembassy.gov/visas/nonimmigrant-visas/</a>---You have an U.S. non-immigrant visa which is still valid or has expired less than 24 months ago AND you are applying for another visa in the same category. The 24 month period is counted from the expiration date of your prior visa to the date which your visa renewal application arrives at the Embassy or Consulate.<a href="https://www.ustraveldocs.com/vn/vn-niv-visarenew.asp">https://www.ustraveldocs.com/vn/vn-niv-visarenew.asp</a></blockquote>
