Well Well it seems that the fee for a visa is up: $100 for Americans, we disscused this previously:

Edited to add: I don't know how to post the link but for those interested the Topic was:

Extra pages for passports

in TravelBuzz!

If it's gona cost $100 I'm going to have to think it over if it's worth the trip.

Does anyone have any experiance with the Consulate in New York City?

Do I have to bring proof of travel (Why on earth do they want that in the first place?)

Do I have to bring any picture?

It's a royal pain for me to go into the city, is there anyway to not have to go in twice?

Will it really cost $100, maybe they'll take into consideration that I got a 90 day Visa a couple years ago, instead of a 5 year Visa which would have still been good? (Because I went to a consulate outside the U.S. to get that Visa)
