when to apply for the new type visa

[dxtans]

Hello,
How long is it it valid once you have applied for the new type visa to the US.

Been onto the visa website and it does not give any details on the life time of the visa, before it expires.

Thanks

I take it you mean the ESTA form. This is NOT a visa but a pre clearance into the US. It's actually nonsense because you still have to go through the whole immigration and US customs nonsense when you land

I'm pretty sure it lasts for 2 years from date of approval

Last time I went across the pond, they were not accepted and I still had to complete the green form.

The BA stewardesses reckoned that they would never be accepted by US Immigration.

Thanks you guys, best I apply for one to err on the safe side and fill the other ( green) one in on the plane.
