@Yash Mittra-YMGrad I am regretting now why I have to watch this Video after my U.S Visa has been disproved because I mentioned that my Brother in the U.S is a green card Holder(American citizen) Base on the DV Program he won🙊😅 Therefore, I fall under Section 214(b). Hash, Please I need your help. I was told if I choose to reapply, I should be prepared to provide information that was not presented in my original application, or to demonstrate that my circumstances have changed since that application. Please how can I go about that?
i got a rejection at my first F1 Visa attempt. On my DS-160, I stated NO where it was asked if had travelled out of my home country in the last 5years. However, during my interview, I was asked if this is my first time of leaving my country and I said YES. I answered "Yes", because I travel to South Africa in 2014 which is more that 5years and I gave the date of my travel to the VO with the reasons for my visit to SA. Could this be the reason I was rejected because the VO asked the particular questions twice.
How to show when they don’t ask for any documents watch you passport and give you back sad all I want to do is visit my mom and return back home I have money in the bank a car a car loan a house what they need bro there a person with notting and getting through
Honestly, they should change this 214(b) rejection. Take my case. I did my first Masters there. Even though I have flying colored grades, it did not help me in getting OPT. I don't have other options than upgrading to second masters. Universities there accept for second masters but, the visa officer reject with 214(b). 1. If visa officer thinks 2nd time masters is not required, then Y universities even accept applications for it and make us pay for application fee, SEVIS fee, visa interview fee??? Isn't this injustice and cheating??? Y the system even bring us to visa interview process??? This is Fraud. 2. Getting a job there. Why people study??? To get a job. Why people go to other countries for study? To get a better job. Then??? Y in the law dictionary of visa interview, this is not acceptable??? People especially from India, where middle class people, they are spending their hard earned money, saved for the future security, they are investing of studies... Then how come these visa interview are rejected??? Is it fun to loot money from poor people and send them back empty handed??? It's cruel and inhumane. 3. When they think everyone are going to become immigrants, then they shouldn't even invite people to get visa. When, people study courses eligible for OPT, then they shouldn't be denying that. It's like killing someone after they got their dollars bank filled then saying that, they are working... They will not give job. This is what is called fraud and everyday millions of people are falling into this trap.
Exactly 💯, Even though the University accepts us by looting hundreds of dollars including Application fee , VISA fee and SEWIS fee , in many cases, VISA officer just deny the dream of the student within seconds. This is so injustice ( honestly speaking ). If we are not applicable for the Education in US , why will the University accept us and why not the VISA officer ? If the University has no problem with our profile , why VISA officer bother about it by asking cgpa , Backlogs and GRE score ? If the student really want to study and get a job in US , why should the student willfully lie about it ? Then why will they give H1 VISA for all the liars who said in their past F1 interview that "They will return to back to India after their masters " ?
@@Akhil_Chilukapati True. They will not accept honesty. My whole life earned money is gone in that college. Unfortunately, we can only talk about it. Nobody going to help us. Nor, USCIS going to even look into our account and show humanity to provide OPT. We are just thrown out after the college n visa officer looted us. People talk about racism and inequality, equality of gender, we r against age discrimination etc… When The visa officer said I don’t think u need to do 2nd masters or a PhD . Just go n find job ur country. If u don’t get then it’s not our problem it’s ur country fault that they can’t give job to u. That college is so mean. They didn’t even wrote one recommendation letter to me. They kept discriminating me because I am strong. Which they don’t like it. For a seminar, they forced me to sit down so that they can teach me about LinkedIn n how to create an account. Because they said u might be having many connections but, hear we create a proof to show that we WE thought that Indian how to create an account that’s why that one was able to have connections. They went and failed me in my PMP exam. Because they feel I don’t deserve that level of job. They want others to get job. That’s y they canceled my OPT n with influence, they changed my record to show it has completed n asked me to leave the country immediately. Then I came running to get visa renewed for my 2nd masters. Here also they cheated me. They played dirty game. They did not give my visa. That college students said, she’s from 3rd world country. She should live there not here . What’s the use of this, we have been cheated n rejected. We cannot get visa renewed nor nobody is going open our file n investigate n get us justice. Such think that, every visa rejected, they earn money in that split second. In a split second, ur money is looted royally. The money we have paid goes to their government and India is paying huge amounts without even realizing what’s happening there. If n only if, we had given that amount, today we could had bought defense systems to protect our country n helped our loyal army.

Let me tell you my today’s visa interview experience US embasssy Delhi, chanakyapuri Counter no.15 She was an Indian lady with black hair and I could see rejection in her eyes. Gave my document and I said Good morning officer She didn’t even responded me neither did she look at me She asked me which university and I told her about it Then asked me have you taken any English proficiency test Then I replied yes madam I’ve done Ielts Till now she hasn’t even once look towards me She is constantly looking at the monitor and typing And all she said is SORRY NO F1 VISA FOR TODAY I’m from Nepal and she rejected almost everyone from Nepal and other standing in that line.
Sorry to hear that. Same thing happened to me. I immediately knew rejection was going to be handed because he already had a frown on his face when I approached him (the VO) 😢
@@behindthebar5482 I am going to give it another try. I did all that was required even before my first interview. Its just so confusing when rejection is handed to you in less than 20 seconds without even going into details. A 214b was immediately handed over...
I know a woman whose application for B visa was rejected 9 times. every time she goes for interview she is asked the purpose of visit and before she even finish answering the question she is handed over the paper 214 b .thats it. this is the same pattern. The VO doesn't even look at her and give her a chance to explain.
Yes because the error was with her first interview or how she filled the ds-160, so after rejection the VO makes some notes which are viewed on her new interview by the VO.
Great video! Just subscribed to your channel dear! What if no questions are asked that prove you are not intending to migrate. I was handed 214b without any detailed questions related to funding or my future plans. In a minute I was handed 214b. My dreams are shattered now. I did not intend to migrate as I have a job offer after masters in India and my parents are retired. How can a minute's interview derail my plans considering am in touch with University officials and faculty of my field?!
Thanks for putting the time and effort into making this youtube video, however while it is easy to say prove strong home ties, how does one do so if the interviewing officer does no allow you to do so?
If the interviewer still does not seem convinced, you may want to consider asking them if there is anything else you can do to prove your strong home ties.
Well that would be great, it they don't allow you to prove it in the first place, I brought in a whole bunch of paperwork, however one has very little time in which to do so.
My F1 visa was rejected and was given 221g Refusal worksheet stating that i overstayed in USA..I Eventhough i overstayed in USA i had a valid reason for that and has applied for extension as well along with my parents. My passport was returned stating Unlawful presence...so how do i need to tackle this problem??
Want a suggestion..Does carrying old expired PASSPORT is mandatory for H1B1 visa interview?? I have xerox copy of front and back page of expired Passport along with all stamped pages..does it suffice their request??
Nice video thanks for the information. After 5 rejection & interview done for tourist visa visa was approved later they called for re interview and they refused. 214b specifying reason you did not meet the requirements of the classification type of non immigrant visa you applied. I had selected b1b2 ??Please advice Thanks
I need help on this: My brother is my sponsor and I also have savings to support myself. What is the best way to present this? ..... Also, on my DS 160 form I made a mistake with the School city address: It's supposed to be Warrensburg but I imputed Lees Summit. How do you think is the best way to defend this?
Great video. Plz I don't quite understand the point of contact aspect. I believe it should be someone who's present in the US not someone who is in my home country. Plz help me clarify this as I am currently filling my ds-160. Thank you.
I received a visa rejection on August 31st. I'm contemplating transferring to a more affordable university. Are there any potential issues I should be mindful of before reapplying?
Hello, My F1 visa has been refused twice, last time the visa offer asked about changes in my circumstance but i have applied with the same profile. She asked only two questions about my university and my sponsor. My sponsor is my maternal uncle and my institute is a private and expensive institute and don't ask any question about my ties. But my ties are very strong because i am government permanent employee and also i am married and when i will leave for the study i will get my regular salary also because i have more then 7 year service. But still i dont have any clear idea about the refusal. please some one guide.
Q1: How did you exactly answer the question? Q2: What do you mean by same profile? Is it the same University and degree? Q3: You have to understand that " sponsor" can be confusing. Is it a visa sponsor or is it a sponsor who will finance your studies which is your maternal uncle? You can't wait for visa officers to ask you follow-up questions. you need to be proactive and not wait for them to ask you. Prove them your ties. Don't keep answers too short. These are common mistakes. Example my visa sponsor is_______. But if you are talking about who will sponsor me to fund my studies it is my _______________________. (Here, you are proactive. You are not waiting to be asked a question because chances are, if you are asked the 2nd question, it actually means that the visa officer is actually giving you the chance for the last time to speak up and prove yourself that you have strong ties at home) If you answered short and not follow up supporting details to your answer, you already lost it. they will no longer ask another question. Best of luck. get back to me for Q1 and Q2.
Do we need to submit invitation letter upfront to consulate while visa interview? Bcoz in my case I had one from my client company in US but didn’t forwarded to consulate at the time of interview.. I got same 214-b. Can plz tell me need to submit upfront or only when consulate ask for that?
Can I apply usa visit visa with my wife and 4 children under 12 year age .I got refuse one time the reason is could not establish strong ties with home country they told that ur children cannot take absent from school for 1 month in February.can u give any advice for reaply
my F1 visa rejected .visa officer ask me what are you doing last five year .visa officer can found my previous ds160 information .my last education was 2015 .my question can i add work experience new ds 160 ?it will be problem if i add
Really informative video! Thank you! Does not having a GRE score pose more chances of rejection? I have secured my admit without a gre since it was waived off. But I'm worried that if they ask about gre in the interview and I say no, it may pose chances of rejection. So is GRE needed for visa?
If my uncle (mother's cousin) is giving me the affidavit of support who lives in US already, so shall I mention his name in DS160 form? As per your suggestion he is not my closest relative so can you advise here?
I just got 214 (b) the consulate don't give me reason instead handing over the letter. 😭 Do I still have chance to apply different visa like fiance visa or anything else since student visa doesn't work with a friend in the United States becomes the sponsorship 😭
My visa application was put on administrative processing hold 221g on 19th December 2021. I received an update today but my passport is expiring on 31st December 2022, and I have received the request to submit my passport to the US consulate in Hyderabad, India, today. May I proceed with the existing passport or apply for a new one and then submit it along with the old passport? Looking forward to hearing from you
You only need to submit the documents that they required you which is the new passport. You are given a 221g because your passport is expiring. The new passport is the document that they need from you. submit it to them. You don't need to apply for a new application and pay a new visa fee. You have 1 year from the time you applied for your visa to submit it. Always check your passport. It has to be 6 months valid or at best, 7 months so you can travel. Best of luck.
Hi sir , please I need your your advice also help from you. I was denied under 214b . Actually Sir , I really have problem with the consular . I have all my strong documents with me to prove but the consular didn’t even ask for them. I was standing waiting him if he will ask for it , I answered all the other questions but Taught he was going to ask me I have prove of documents but he didn’t. Please I’m trying to reply now . What can I do ,right now I’m confused 🤷♂️
If you are not happy with the quality of education or you cannot afford to stay, then transferring to a different university with lower COA may be a good option. It's a personal decision after all.
Hello Yash, the video is very helpful. I got rejected last time now I am reappearing for the Interview again. Last time in my interview i fumbled little bit. I think that was the issue.
Hi! I was hired as a pre-school teacher in Northern Mariana Islands and my working permit has been approved by the USCIS however, I got denied at the embassy when I applied for a visa last week. My denial is under 214B according to the paper that they gave me. I actually don’t know what went wrong since I only answered 2 personal questions from the consul and he already made his decision of denying my application. I actually thought I had a big chance to be approved since I worked in Europe before and my work in the Philippines is related to the job that I was supposed to have in Northern Mariana Islands. Can you please give me some tips on how what to improve or change if ever I will re apply?
@@melissajanebillones2338 First question was “Where are you going?” so I answered “In Northern Mariana Islands if ever” and the second was “What’s your job here?” and I responded “I’m an ESL teacher”
Hi Luna. Possible reasons for the denial. Too short answers and responses. The most common mistake of people during visa interviews is keeping the answer too short, or not supporting their answers at all. You have to answer in a short way but with supporting details. For example, Q1: I am going to the Northern Mariana Islands to work as a Teacher. This opportunity fits me because I will use the experience and skills that I will be gaining from this experience when I go back to the Philippines after the duration of my visa. Q2: I work as an ESL teacher for ___yrs and I am earning 30k (for example) /per month. I decided to take a leap in my career in the USA temporarily to further and advance my skills in a different perspective (the American way,w/c is more advanced and is not offered here in my country (for example) if it is the case. ) So yo see. The answers are short but it has supporting details as to why you want to be in the USA. You have also demonstrated your ties to go home to the Philippines because you have a work waiting for you and that you will only stay in the USA to advance your skills and experience. Best of luck.
@@melissajanebillones2338 Hi there, rightly pointed out. If you don't mind I have one question as well. See my sibling is working in US on H1b visa and I got my admit and I20 from UTA but currently she is also staying in Texas only. Would it pose a wrong impression or should I apply for my F1 visa for a different state in USA. I also got accepted to university of utah and they also offered a scholarship, however I didn't receive an I20 from them till now. I have not filled my Ds160 till now. What would you suggest to be my course of action in this regard also telling that my sister is already working in US would they ask more questions in this regard? I need to obtain my visa before August 2023, so if you could respond to this question it would be really helpful. Thank you in advance. Have a great day.😊
Yash in my 10th, 12th and undergraduate academic transcripts my parents name column have full given names with only initials(Initial not expanded as surname) whereas in my passport their names contain full given names along with surname. My name is same in transcripts and passport with surnames , will only having initials of my parents in academic transcripts create any problems during visa or college application process for united states...
My brother is working in the US on a H1b visa. Will they reject my F1 because my brother did not return to India after studies? Will they count me as a non returning brother too?? Im shit scared
You have to apply again with new DS 160 but you have to mention you have been rejected previously, when filling yes or no question answer on DS 160. It is mandatory. And you have to pay visa appointment fee again. And they will have your details of previous rejection but you can update about yourself before appearing the next interview. All the best
Hi Yash, Do they ask about siblings education either in the DS-160 or during the interview? What if our sibling is uneducated/debarred from normal education due to intellectual disability. Will that affect my interview?
Two times I got 214b slip. I feel it is due to loan letter which I showed as a financial proof. Planning to show liquid funds in the next attempt. Can you help me out? Any other way to contact you directly?

Also, on my DS 160 form I made a mistake with the School city address: It's supposed to be Warrensburg but I imputed Lees Summit. How do you think is the best way to defend this?
Great video. Plz I don't quite understand the point of contact aspect. I believe it should be someone who's present in the US not someone who is in my home country. Plz help me clarify this as I am currently filling my ds-160. Thank you.
I received a visa rejection on August 31st. I'm contemplating transferring to a more affordable university. Are there any potential issues I should be mindful of before reapplying?
Hello, My F1 visa has been refused twice, last time the visa offer asked about changes in my circumstance but i have applied with the same profile. She asked only two questions about my university and my sponsor. My sponsor is my maternal uncle and my institute is a private and expensive institute and don't ask any question about my ties. But my ties are very strong because i am government permanent employee and also i am married and when i will leave for the study i will get my regular salary also because i have more then 7 year service.
But still i dont have any clear idea about the refusal. please some one guide.
Q1: How did you exactly answer the question?
Q2: What do you mean by same profile? Is it the same University and degree?
Q3: You have to understand that " sponsor" can be confusing. Is it a visa sponsor or is it a sponsor who will finance your studies which is your maternal uncle? You can't wait for visa officers to ask you follow-up questions. you need to be proactive and not wait for them to ask you. Prove them your ties. Don't keep answers too short. These are common mistakes.
Example my visa sponsor is_______. But if you are talking about who will sponsor me to fund my studies it is my _______________________. (Here, you are proactive. You are not waiting to be asked a question because chances are, if you are asked the 2nd question, it actually means that the visa officer is actually giving you the chance for the last time to speak up and prove yourself that you have strong ties at home) If you answered short and not follow up supporting details to your answer, you already lost it. they will no longer ask another question.
Best of luck. get back to me for Q1 and Q2.
@@melissajanebillones2338 I really love your answers. Do you have a TH-cam channel?
hi there, what if on the point of contact, you put the school officials details, is that a bad move or a good one?
What if I write in ds 160 form the point of contact information in the USA different from the address to stay in the USA?

Really informative video! Thank you!
Does not having a GRE score pose more chances of rejection? I have secured my admit without a gre since it was waived off. But I'm worried that if they ask about gre in the interview and I say no, it may pose chances of rejection. So is GRE needed for visa?
Hi, How did you tackle this question?
@@sayedarif7 they didn't ask me. But even if they do, just clearly mention that gre was waived off due to pandemic.
@@jagjotkaur4170 they only asked me what program are you going for, tell me something about the program, who is funding for your education. That's it!
If my uncle (mother's cousin) is giving me the affidavit of support who lives in US already, so shall I mention his name in DS160 form? As per your suggestion he is not my closest relative so can you advise here?
Hi can you share the DS160 form with us please? Thank you!
Hi Yash if I have change the Ds 160 form if consular ask if you change any thing after rejection
How to show visa officer dosent asked me any question and gave 214b😖
I just got 214 (b) the consulate don't give me reason instead handing over the letter. 😭 Do I still have chance to apply different visa like fiance visa or anything else since student visa doesn't work with a friend in the United States becomes the sponsorship 😭
Hi Mr. Yash, am Sophia I was denied my C1D visa under 214b may you help me out I want to reapply again.
My visa application was put on administrative processing hold 221g on 19th December 2021. I received an update today but my passport is expiring on 31st December 2022, and I have received the request to submit my passport to the US consulate in Hyderabad, India, today.
May I proceed with the existing passport or apply for a new one and then submit it along with the old passport?
Looking forward to hearing from you
You only need to submit the documents that they required you which is the new passport. You are given a 221g because your passport is expiring. The new passport is the document that they need from you. submit it to them.
You don't need to apply for a new application and pay a new visa fee. You have 1 year from the time you applied for your visa to submit it.
Always check your passport. It has to be 6 months valid or at best, 7 months so you can travel.
Best of luck.
@@melissajanebillones2338 Hello, My F1 visa has been rejected twice, Please give me advice to pass it for the third time
I got denied A Visa under 214b do I need to submit another DS-160 if I want to reschedule a Visa interview?
Hi sir , please I need your your advice also help from you. I was denied under 214b . Actually Sir , I really have problem with the consular . I have all my strong documents with me to prove but the consular didn’t even ask for them. I was standing waiting him if he will ask for it , I answered all the other questions but Taught he was going to ask me I have prove of documents but he didn’t. Please I’m trying to reply now . What can I do ,right now I’m confused 🤷♂️
Same thing happened to me ,when can we re apply?
Hi Yash is it safe to go with same Uni or change Uni which has less coa? please reply
If you are not happy with the quality of education or you cannot afford to stay, then transferring to a different university with lower COA may be a good option. It's a personal decision after all.
cant mention about aunt and uncle in Usa???
What's changed since last time?? What to day in 2nd attempt??
Hello Yash, the video is very helpful. I got rejected last time now I am reappearing for the Interview again. Last time in my interview i fumbled little bit. I think that was the issue.
How was it this time?
Can you even make similar video on how to avoid canada visa rejection?
What if we have our siblings in USA.. And still do not mention them.? How they are supposed to know about our blood relatives?
My uncle is in USA over more than 20years . Will it affect my visa?
Hi! I was hired as a pre-school teacher in Northern Mariana Islands and my working permit has been approved by the USCIS however, I got denied at the embassy when I applied for a visa last week. My denial is under 214B according to the paper that they gave me. I actually don’t know what went wrong since I only answered 2 personal questions from the consul and he already made his decision of denying my application.
I actually thought I had a big chance to be approved since I worked in Europe before and my work in the Philippines is related to the job that I was supposed to have in Northern Mariana Islands. Can you please give me some tips on how what to improve or change if ever I will re apply?
first question, what was the 2 question and how did you exactly respond to them? I know the feeling of both who got approved and denied 🙂
@@melissajanebillones2338 First question was “Where are you going?” so I answered “In Northern Mariana Islands if ever” and the second was “What’s your job here?” and I responded “I’m an ESL teacher”
Hi Luna.
Possible reasons for the denial. Too short answers and responses. The most common mistake of people during visa interviews is keeping the answer too short, or not supporting their answers at all. You have to answer in a short way but with supporting details.
For example,
Q1: I am going to the Northern Mariana Islands to work as a Teacher. This opportunity fits me because I will use the experience and skills that I will be gaining from this experience when I go back to the Philippines after the duration of my visa.
Q2: I work as an ESL teacher for ___yrs and I am earning 30k (for example) /per month. I decided to take a leap in my career in the USA temporarily to further and advance my skills in a different perspective (the American way,w/c is more advanced and is not offered here in my country (for example) if it is the case. )
So yo see. The answers are short but it has supporting details as to why you want to be in the USA. You have also demonstrated your ties to go home to the Philippines because you have a work waiting for you and that you will only stay in the USA to advance your skills and experience.
Best of luck.
@@melissajanebillones2338 Hi there, rightly pointed out. If you don't mind I have one question as well. See my sibling is working in US on H1b visa and I got my admit and I20 from UTA but currently she is also staying in Texas only. Would it pose a wrong impression or should I apply for my F1 visa for a different state in USA. I also got accepted to university of utah and they also offered a scholarship, however I didn't receive an I20 from them till now. I have not filled my Ds160 till now. What would you suggest to be my course of action in this regard also telling that my sister is already working in US would they ask more questions in this regard? I need to obtain my visa before August 2023, so if you could respond to this question it would be really helpful. Thank you in advance. Have a great day.😊
Hello, the finance could include an education loan + savings (FD,EPF, bank statement )= 1.5 x i20 amount, right?
Hi Atharva, did you get an answer to your question? If you could please cast a light and clear the confusion about finances
Yes it is. Not mandatory but atleast 1.3× or 1.5× will make mark you on safe side
Thanks for this info.
Yash in my 10th, 12th and undergraduate academic transcripts my parents name column have full given names with only initials(Initial not expanded as surname) whereas in my passport their names contain full given names along with surname. My name is same in transcripts and passport with surnames , will only having initials of my parents in academic transcripts create any problems during visa or college application process for united states...
It should not.

Can I mention my aunt as a relative if I'm planning to stay with her until I finish my college?
Since you r non immigrant visa applicant, the officer will be sure that you are going to stay in US this leads to 100% rejection.

Is it good to quit the job before f1 visa interview considering 3 months notice period? Will that affect my visa? Please suggest.
after rejection can we able to apply for a new ds160? or do they have our old ds160?
You have to apply again with new DS 160 but you have to mention you have been rejected previously, when filling yes or no question answer on DS 160. It is mandatory. And you have to pay visa appointment fee again. And they will have your details of previous rejection but you can update about yourself before appearing the next interview. All the best
Hi Yash,
Do they ask about siblings education either in the DS-160 or during the interview? What if our sibling is uneducated/debarred from normal education due to intellectual disability. Will that affect my interview?
