No need for a visa to visit the Philippines thankfully. I am going back next month and when I bought my tickets my travel agent told me that they changed the rules and I needed a visa! I called the Philippine consulate and they said no. Not sure what was going on there.

Actually, you did get a visa when you arrived. You got your passport stamped with a 21 day visa. Stays over 21 days require an extended stay visa that can be applied for after you are already there or before you leave.

i did need a visa to visit Stewart in Australia but it was easy to get - you could do it on the internet for 20 bucks....

Easy peezy...

He did come visit me but all the times he was here he was on a J1 visa.

Finally finished with immigration in 2012!

I had to have an Israeli visa to enter the West Bank. They are usually not hard to obtain for an American citizen.... you can just show up at the border, and as long as you have money you'll likely be issued a 3-month visitor visa. Unless you're one of those "peace activists" that Israel finds so irritating. Then you're "persona non grata."
