Travel Visa Frustration

Due to me venturing over the "pond" later in the year, U.S. and Canada, I needed to get visas for both. Yesterday after over three hours, I got nowhere, with the prospect of having to go to the American Embassy to get theirs sorted.

The Canadian site kept "timing" me out at the payment stage, the U.S. one rejecting the passport.

Today, having even assessed the financial losses on booked items, I had another go. Finally after another hour, the U.S. one is done, well waiting for their approval or not. The Canadian took less than one minute for approval after payment. I can now almost relax.
