Why should it be easier to extend one's visa. We have over 50 million visitors a year. There are a number of countries that participate in the visa wavier program that allows citizens of those countries to enter without tourist/business visas. They can stay up to 90 days. Visa Wavier Program

We have over 900,000 foreign students attending US universites.

You do understand that much of our visa program is based on reciprocity. Why should we make it easier for visitors to stay longer when other countries don't extend the same privilege to our citizens visiting their countries?

By “easier” I meant less of a bureaucratic nightmare. Whether the answer is yes or no, it should be easy and fast to get it. Perhaps I should have said “apply” for an extension.

In any case, I don’t know why we should care what other countries do, unless they find something that works really well and might work here...
