U.S. Embassy in Seoul Suspends All Visa Services
|I am surprised this did not happen sooner:
The U.S. Embassy in Seoul said Wednesday that it will suspend all routine visa services from Thursday for an unspecified period of time in keeping with the State Department’s measures to respond to the new coronavirus outbreak.
The embassy said in a statement that it “will cancel all routine immigrant and nonimmigrant visa appointments” starting Thursday. However, this will not affect the existing visa waiver program, and services to U.S. citizens will continue.
The visa waiver enables Korean nationals to travel to the United States for tourism or business purposes for 90 days or less without obtaining a visa.

GI, these trolls all use the same link… “xurl dot es slash eufg3″… should be easy to shut ’em down for content… 🙂
Oh yeah, and with the Embassy not using Visa, will they still take MasterCard or American Express?
Setnaffa, I keep banning their IP address and that works for a while and then they keep coming back using a totally different IP. It is a bit of a wack-a-mole going on with these spammers right now. Hopefully the Akismet spam plug in will eventually get wise to whatever these spammers are doing to get around it, because the vast majority of spam is caught by that plug in.
They are persistent… but maybe the coronavirus will thin out the herd…
