The ban on Cuban-Europeans from entering the United States with ESTA seems to be here to stay for a long time, which is why many are seeking a 5-year visa to the United States. Many family members residing on the island are also behind this possibility of travel.
Do you dream of traveling to the United States with a 5-year visa? It’s possible! Although the US Embassy in Havana does not currently issue them, you can request it in a third country. The limitations of accessing this service in the Cuban capital mean that thousands of people in need of this visa have to add more money to the expenses and agree to request this visa in another nation.
Please note that not all third countries offer this option. Investigate thoroughly which ones do allow it. Plan ahead. The application process can take several months, although some cases are resolved in as little as one month. Gather all necessary documentation. Translate any document requested from you into English. Practice for the visa interview. Research the most common questions and be prepared to answer them confidently.
These are some vital tips when going to an Embassy to apply for a 5-year visa for Cubans heading to the US.

Cubans wanting a 5-year visa to the US? Other additional tips we can give you are to start the application process as soon as possible, apply for the visa in a country where you have family or friends who can help you, or hire an immigration lawyer if you need one.
The United States Embassy in Havana continues to process 5-year B1/B2 visas. However, don’t be discouraged! According to the official website of the US government, there are alternatives to obtain your visa more quickly in other countries.
According to this page, Guyana improved greatly compared to the beginning of the month, with the speed of visa analysis. Currently, at the Georgetown Embassy, it is only taking 7 days, or a week, to respond to 5-year visas.
Some point out that they are rejecting many Cubans, so it is better to be prepared. American diplomats are not required to give you a visa. Better to think, that you are going with the “habit of winning and losing”.
