Online status check for US visa applicants

E-updates on US visa applications
The US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) will launch a service that allows applicants for US visas and green cards to check the status of their applications online.
The service, due out in September, will increase the efficiency of the application process by decreasing the amount of personal contact required to keep candidates informed of their immigration status.
Apart from checking online, applicants can opt to receive updates by text message or email.
Aneesh Chopra, appointed by Barack Obama as the first ever CTO in the US, announced the US immigration initiative at a business conference in California’s Silicon Valley yesterday.
