Esta panic

[tonijo]

I have just completed the Esta application for our family of four,three have been approved but my 13 yr old sons is pending...i am now in a panic..there is no reason why it shouldn't have been approved straight away..the only thing i can think of is in my haste to complete the thing i put his first name and middle name in the first name box...should i do another one??????please help!

Don't panic - for some reason DHs ESTA took 24 hours to come through whereas mine and DDs went through immediately. Wait a couple of days before doing anything.

I wouldn't worry either as this happened to us too. Mine was approved straight away but dh and dds wasn't. I checked the following day and it was all fine though.

Found it quite amusing watching my dh stress for the day. He clearly wants to go to Disney more than he's making out

Try not to worry, l'm sure yours will be fine too

Don't worry it happened when I did ours last year and also when I did our in-laws this year, I think 2 out of 5 processed straight away.

It won't matter. This question comes up from time to time. Although middle names are not required, it won't cause a problem with your application.
