I went to apply last night and I was 1 day early to apply as you can only apply 7 days before travel. I refreshed my browser after midnight and I could then apply for my arrival on Feb. 7. My application went through as far as I can see. Just wondering how long it usually takes to hear from them? Should I have gotten an application reference # when I applied?

Less than 2 hours for me today.
I reapplied and got a reference #. I received approval within minutes. So if you don't get a reference # after submitting you should reapply. Thanks for the reply Mike.

good info. applied and received a number but could not print the form yet. it did have me a bit worried when it said i was at high rick but i have a feeling all U.S. visitors are considered high risk
Almost correct Spanky...everyone visiting Jamaica is considered as 'High Risk'.Originally Posted by original spanky
I had a problem as well as I got no response. I called and they said use chrome browser so I did and it went thru immediately.
If you can apply 7 days early then what do you do about your Covid test which is 72 hours before you leave?

Two separate issues. You have to provide your airline with proof of Negative Test to board a flight to Ja. It’s not attached to your Travel Authorization
From the US it is the 3 Days before your departure, not calculated in hours. I know it’s different in Canada. Hopefully you can get through the truck logjam in Ottawa to the airport

Packrat, thanks for the answer. I still have another week before I can do it but I wondered about the test. The drive to the airport is not near downtown where the majority of truckers are and it will be about 3:45AM so fingers crossed.
