    U.S. Visa Applicants From Thailand in Some Categories Must Now Set Social Media Accou

    The U.S. Embassy in Thailand has announced that, effective immediately, all applicants for F, M, or J nonimmigrant visas must adjust the privacy settings of their social media accounts to “public.” This new requirement is part of the vetting process to verify applicants’ identities and eligibility for entry into the United States under U.S. law.


    The directive applies to all individuals seeking these temporary visa categories, which include student (F and M) and exchange visitor (J) visas. U.S. authorities will review publicly accessible social media content to ensure compliance with immigration regulations.


    The U.S. Embassy stressed the importance of adhering to this rule to avoid delays or complications in visa processing. For more information, applicants are encouraged to visit the official U.S. Embassy website or follow #USConsularThailandTips on social media for updates.

    The girlfriend received her 3rd 10 year (type B) Visa shortly before Trump took office. It wouldn’t have made any difference anyway. She wasn’t asking for a F, M, or J nonimmigrant visa.

    They appear to be trying. What else should they do? Complete the wall or better secure the border in some other way? Not all of the worst of the worst will be walking in from Mexico at night. A government needs to limit unlawful entries. The US clearly needs to do much better here.

    Since there are ample reports of people being turned back (after an ESTA was approved) because their socials criticised the orange wanker in some way, it's evident that this is just more entitled trumpanzee retards doing their bit to "own the libs".

    Damn. I hope they don't find out I was picking apples in Washington state all them years ago. ( illegally) I didn't need to swim the Rio grande to get in that time. I Drove in , in my el cheapo winabago. After I got done picking apples in the okanagan with a bunch of pakis. You sure get used to being in a minority. That's fine with me though. WE all got treated right back then. Now? I wonder.

    I'm pretty sure he thinks the common database errors (we are all getting) means he is banned but he's too drunk or stupid to listen.

    "502 Bad Gateway" isn't a common database error though.

    Yeah the 502 is a background check on users porn viewing habits and a massive red flag.
