“US Embassy and Consulates in mainland China employ a third-party call
center to schedule visa interviews, which incurs a fee of $0.7/minute and
extensive traveling cost for buying pre-paid phone cards. This system does
not benefit the US government and nourishes corruption.
We the people urge the U.S. Embassy and Consulates to switch to a free
online system for visa-scheduling in China. If not, please explain why visa
applicants in most other countries and regions can schedule their visa
interviews online for free, which is efficient, accurate, and cost-effective
.”
我也讨厌电话预约系统,可是petition里“extensive traveling cost for buying
pre-paid phone cards”根本不是事实啊。。。
更大的签证问题难道不是交签证费本身不方便么?
还有强制符合代签条件的F1反签去中信?
还有上海使馆让check过的人先去中信代签7天后再面签的规定?
还有万恶的administrative processing。。。。。
我知道问题很多得一步一步来,但这个只改到一个online预约系统,如果系统前期不完
善,不见得不会有副作用。
