Application Processing Time Update

The Statewide Visit Unit (SVU) is currently working on processing a very high volume of visit applications. Applications are processed in the order received. In order to prioritize processing of applications, inquiries requesting when a specific application will be processed will not receive a response.

DO NOT SUBMIT MORE THAN ONE APPLICATION, additional applications will void the previous application and restart processing timeframes.

To avoid unnecessary expenses, be sure you have received notification of approval for visiting prior to making travel arrangements.

Thank you for your patience as we work diligently to process your visit application.


Please take the visit survey to let us know how we're doing. We want to ensure your visiting experience has been comfortable. Thank you!
