Obtaining a US visa in CM

[Virtualrecluse]

As I am finding it impossible and incredibly frustrating trying to apply for the visa waiver program online (it simply will not accept my passport photo), can I apply for a standard 90-day visa at the US consulate in Chiang Mai?

Not sure from your post what your nationality is or what exactly your are trying to do.  I am not aware of any standard 90 day visa to the US.  My girlfriend just obtained her 10 year U.S. Visa.  I suggest you start with the basics and do your research here...https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas.html

The U.S. Consulate in Chiang Mai can take your request for a tourist visa if that is what your asking about.  You seem to be a bit uninformed on dealing with such things, you may want to go to a visa service in Chiang Mai and have them do all the work for you.

BB, I think what the OP is referencing isn't a "standard 90 day visa", but is frustration in using the online system to obtain authorization for the 90-day entry under the Visa Waiver Program and the Electronic System for Travel Travel Authorization.  https://www.cbp.gov/travel/international-visitors/frequently-asked-questions-about-visa-waiver-program-vwp-and-electronic-system-travel

 

The U.S. Consulate Chiang Mai will not be able to help him with this.  If the OP is having trouble using the online system, then the suggestion to employ a visa agent is probably a good one.  Star Visa, near the U.S. Consulate receives good review from everyone.

Photo specs are online. Initially it was unclear to me how to input the photo. I think I dragged and dropped it in and it worked.

Is the PO having difficulty putting the photo in or is the problem refusal after successfully putting it in? If the latter, carefully check photo against the specs, several required dimensions and pixel count.
