The wait for visitor visas to the United States could get a little longer. White House and State Department officials said that a new executive order revoking an Obama-era guideline on processing times at consulates was made in the interest of vetting and national security.<br/><br/> The brief order deletes a subsection of a 2012 order that sought to expedite the processing time for non-immigrant visas, including those needed by students and tourists. The original order issued by then-President Barack Obama called on the State Department to ensure that 80 percent of non-immigrant visa applicants are interviewed within 3 weeks of receipt of application.
