write your auth number down.

Or print the "Authorization Approved" page, since the auth number
is 16 alphanumerics and a mistake would be easy.

once you complete an app, the number is valid for 2+ years with
modifications to travel plans each time, but, and this is a killer: the
web app will NOT send you a reminder of your number, and if you
'reapply' you get bounced 5 forms in.

if you can't remember it, there is no apparent way to recover the
number. :-(

The USG has a new program out which requires people to use this for
the Visa Waiver Prgogram and other stuff. I forgot the right URL
and used google to find it back. To my suprise I got various of
hits for various sites offering me to send a pdf-file for $ 49.95
or more telling me how to fill in the form.

The real site is something like
<http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/travel/id_visa/esta/>.

Don't get duped.
