VISA app

I was getting impatience waiting for my COE. It seriously takes a long time, been 2 months now! And COE is not even a visa, it's what you need for visa application.


Dear YinTing,

Please read through your Visa Starter Packet which is posted on your MyIESAbroad account at www.iesabroad.org.  This packet explains the timeline and process for the COE and applying for the visa.  As you will see, we do not get the COEs back from Japan until about 2-3 weeks before the program start date.  We then will email you to verify your mailing address and then FedEx your COE to you so you can apply for the visa.  The visa process usually only takes several days once you have the COE, but the COEs often are not ready until early March, and you cannot apply for your visa until you have your COE.

Best wishes,

Beth Eustis, IES Abroad
