节日快乐！我们很高兴地向大家宣布自2010年12月25日起，中信银行免面谈代传递

手续费用将大幅下降 – 申请F和M类学生签证的申请人和70周岁 (含) 以上的老人

只需支付100元人民币，其他申请人只需支付120元人民币。使用此服务续签签证无

需等候面谈或排队，所以这是最容易、最快捷、最好的续签办法。代传递申请与亲

自来馆面谈的申请在审理时享有相同的优先权。申请人无需来馆面谈、无需预约，

也无需在使领馆排队等候。自2011年1月1日起，所有符合免面谈代传递条件的申请

人都必须使用此服务。这一举措旨在改善我们对申请人的服务。

但有一些限制。符合代传递资格的14至79周岁申请人必须已经持有一有效的美国签证

（或者签证自失效日起不超过12个月，且之后没有被拒签过）并且再次申请相同的签证

类型。80周岁以上或14周岁以下的申请人，即使他们以前从未申请过赴美签证，同样有

资格使用免面谈代传递服务申请。

上述信息只适用美国驻华大使馆(北京)。如果您在其它美国驻华总领事馆（成都、广

州、上海,沈阳）申请，相关的申请程序细节，请浏览他们的网站。

NOTICE:

Drop-Box Fee Reduced! Drop-Box Now Mandatory for those Eligible Visa Applicants

Happy Holidays!  We are pleased to announce that as of December 25, 2010

 the fees for drop-off visa renewal services will be significantly reduced – to 100 RMB for student visa applicants applying for F and M visas and senior citizens who are 70 and above, and 120 RMB for all others.   Drop-off renewal is the easiest, fastest, best way to renew your visa because you don’t have to wait for an appointment or stand in line!  Drop-box applications are processed with the same priority as walk-in applications.  NO interview is required and applicants do NOT have to make an appointment or wait in line at the U.S. Embassy or Consulates!  As of January 1, 2011, it will be MANDATORY for all drop-box eligible applicants to use that avenue to apply.  This move is being made to improve services for all applicants. 

Some restrictions apply.  To be drop-box eligible, applicants from 14 through 79 years of age must already have a valid visa (or a visa that has expired within the past twelve months with no subsequent refusals) and must be re-applying for the same type of visa. Applicants who are over 80 or under 14 years of age are eligible to use the drop-off renewal process even if they have never  applied for a U.S. visa before.

The information above applies to the U.S. Embassy in Beijing.  If you are applying at one of the other U.S. Consulates throughout China (Chengdu, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Shenyang), please check their websites for specifics related to application procedures there.
