What is ESTA fraud? ESTA application Q&A

What is "VIOPP"?How to apply ESTA for children? What is ESTA fraud and how to avoid being scammed?

After posting the ESTA application guide, I often receive questions from the viewers.
So, I decide to film another FAQ video about applying ESTA.

In this video, I have answered the 11 most ask questions.
Other than the general application, I'll also discuss what is ESTA fraud and how to avoid been scammed.

 

Here are the list of questions:

1. I'm planning to take my child, who is under 12 years old, to the United States. Should I apply our ESTA individually? Or apply as a group?

2. I cannot go to the United States, if my passport doesn't have a chip (Radio Frequency Identification chip)? Should I renew the passport? Also, I'm planning to visit family member in the United States, but I'm not fluent in English. Will I get in trouble when I'm at the U.S. Customs? I am also worried that I will be deported.

3. Can I apply for ESTA with a Taiwanese passport if I have dual nationality/citizenship?

4. I'm planning to stay in different hotels, should I enter the first hotel address for the US address question?

5. I would like to ask about the following question, "Is the travel to the US occurring in transit to another country?" If I'm to the United States and planning to visit Mexico for 1-2 days by foot, and the remaining time will be in the United States. Should I answer yes or no to this question?

6. Do I need to buy a flight ticket before applying for a visa (ESTA)?

7. I'm at the confirmation page, but I don't have time to go to the interview. What should I do next?

8. I don't remember I need to fill in my residential address in the United States when I'm filling out the application. It's because I chose "Yes" to "Is your travel to the US occurring in transit to another country?" It seems like there is something popping up in the video to fill in, because I planned to transfer to Canada. Assuming the application is approved, and I want to travel to the United States in a few months. Can enter with the same ESTA? Do I still need to reapply?

9. I have a visa, but it is with my previous passport. But, the passport is already expired, is the visa still valid?

10. The process you introduced seems different when I applied ESTA yesterday. The system asked me to upload my passport photo and personal information. I'm stuck at this step. How can I solve it?

11. when I was applying for ESTA, I accidentally chose "business type" of ESTA. But at the end, we found out we should have chosen the "tourist type." Is there a solution for the types of errors?
