If you're a visitor to the United States, age 16 or older and from Yemen, you have until next week to check in with U.S. immigration officials. But if you're a visitor 15 or older from Pakistan or Saudi Arabia, then remember to mark Jan. 13 through Feb. 21 on the calendar. That's the latest special registration period issued by the government for certain non-immigrants -- people who are visiting the United States on a short-term basis.
