How do i apply for a travelers visa?

Question

i want to travel out of the country and i need a visa to reenter back into the country, where do i file for a visa?

Answer 1

If you're talking about the US, you could apply at most US embassies and consulates outside the US. However, many have long waiting times for appointments. In some places it can take months to get an appointment.  Take a look at the State Department website at travel.state.com. They keep statistics on the waiting times for visa appointments at every embassy or consulate overseas. Your ability to get a visa is usually better when you apply in your home country, as you have to show strong ties to your country that will lead you to return. That can be hard to do in a third country, it may be hard enough to do at home, if you've only just left the US and are trying to return. And, if the immigration officers at the airport think you are using tourist visas to live in the US, they can still deny you entry, even if you have a visa.
