Need some help getting my friend a visa to come to America. Any thoughts? Ideas? Thank you
ANSWER: August-31-2009 by Wellesley Gayle
Hi Cynthia,
Thanks for asking.
The only legitimate way is through the US embassy here in Jamaica but they have a very strict and process.
They do a very detailed review to determine one's eligibility. A friend of mine joked that it is easier to get to heaven than to the USA!
Take a look at my answer to a related question for more information.
I hope it provides you some insight.
Stay in touch!
