I'm travelling to the USA and was curious how many people here apply for a visa before hand or participate in the visa waiver program. I'm keen on the latter but unsure how difficult the process may be. I'll have to get a new passport with a microchip in it, but would that be better than paying for a visa in advance? My current passport is the older kind and by reading the info on the Qantas site it seems I have to have the new one with the chip to participate in the visa waiver program. Another good benefit would be the shorter queue when coming back into Oz.
Having had no criminal record or any relatives associated with crime I cannot forsee any difficulties, but this is the modern day and things go wrong all the time. Any advice is appreciated on which way to go.
