As we discussed in the seminar, the US Department of State$B!G(Bs mail-in visa* 
revalidation program (domestic visa re-issuance service) will end on July 
16, one week from now.  There is still time to apply; please let us know 
if we can help.

*Note: the visa is a document that is required for authorized entry into 
the US from abroad.  The visa is permanently affixed to your passport; its 
validity period may differ from your period of authorized stay in the US 
as evidenced by the small white "Arrival-Departure Record" card (Form 
I-94) that was stapled to your passport when you last entered the US.  
Once you are inside the US, your period of authorized stay is governed by 
Form I-94.

After the discontinuance of the visa revalidation service, applicants who 
would have been able to revalidate their visas in the US will generally 
use one of the following two options:  (1)  application at the border 
(Canada/Mexico), or (2) application in Japan.  Information on the 
interview appointment system at specific US visa processing posts may be 
found at <http://usembassy.state.gov>.

I would welcome an opportunity to discuss this and other pressing US 
immigration events affecting the landscape of Japanese technology 
professionals with you; I would also welcome an opportunity to introduce 
to you to our firm$B!G(Bs dedicated Japanese immigration matter team, Associate 
Attorney Laura Walpert and Paralegal Sachiyo Tsuchida (fluent in Japanese).
