... in response to tourist visa, posted by outwest77 on Jun 12, 2002It is my understanding that this applies to all countries but I could be wrong. My boss who is born austrian but now a Canadian says this applies to everybody including Canadians. I wonder how this will affect the snowbirds in florida but it is my understanding that they are declining since the canadian economy isn't what it used to be. my boss is returning to Canada for a new chapter in his life and we are waiting for a new Frenchie frpm the venezuela property but he has to clear his work visa also.
I personally don't have a problem with this new change except that it is the government implementing a quick fix solution because they screwed up --- Cover Y. A. I have seen some abuses of illegals working here personally and if this will somehow help us gain a little more control of our borders what can I say it will keep the honest people honest. Let those people who want to visit here for a longer period of time pay more and get the appropriate visa. many other countries don't let you visit and hang out there for 6 - 12 months no questions asked. I am researching visiting Japan myself and they have a 90 day tourist visa.
