Hi ma'am, ishare ko lang yung experience namin sa interview. We went to the US po last November 2019. Ito yung mga questioons sa amin: 1.What are you going to do in the US? Ans: Vacation. 2.Where in the US? Ans: New York. 3. What do you do for a living? Ans: We have a business. 4. What type of business? Ans: Hardware. 5.Where? Ans: In the Province. 6.Have you been outside the Country? Ans: Yes. 7.Where? Ans: Singapore, HK, Bali Indo, Taiwan...mostly asia. Consul: Congrats your visa is approved you'll get it in 7days. Thank you. Kung mapapansin mo po sa mga sagot namin, hindi kami nagbigay ng details or hindi namin inelaborate yung mga sagot namin. Kasi pag inelaborate mo po yung sagot mo dun sila magkakaroon ng follow up questions. Yun lang po sana makatulong.
@@marjoriesabido7390 Iba ang departure immigration kesa sa visa application. Magkaiba yon. Sa immigration, 20 seconds lang ako. San bansa then tatak after makita card.
Kailangan maging kampante kalang, makinig na mabuti sa tanong ng interviewer, hindi kailangan pinauulit ang tanong( isa tanong, isa sagot lang), remember ko nuon ako ang ininterview, meron ako katabi, puno ng alahas sa katawan, ang dami land title pa dala, narinig ko ang tanong sa kanya ng consul” Do you drive”” sagot niya No, sabi ng consul: how come you have your driver license , sagot ni girl naman: because we have driver, pinakita na mayaman siya, ayon na denied siya, cguro sa dami nmin nuon naka schedule, more than 100 cguro , mga 4 lang kami na bigyan ng Multiple VISA , umiyak yon sinasabi nkasabay ko yon!! saka hindi sinasagot ng Tama ang mga tanong!! Another try , another bayad, masakit din sa bulsa, i think mataas na ang bayad ngayon! nuon time ko bayad ko lang $100, !!Better luck nxt time, this time I heard iba na nman ang law sa mga new applicant!!!👍👍👍
Ang hirap pala mag- apply ng visa papuntang US. Family vacation lang naman dun tas na denied pa. Super qualified ka naman Ms. Anne when it comes to your intention and financial situation.
@@RNssssss we cannot question their expenses kasi afford naman nila, pero everything they have is because from the Lord, kaya gusto rin ni Lord na mailagay sa tamang lugar or position ang lahat ng mga anak niya, sa case ni Mama Anne, since they have the plans to get Married on church, mas maganda talaga if iyon muna ang priority nila 😊
Oh? Are they not married yet? You are right ate, first things first. Actually i spent a thousand bucks when i went to the US last year. Ofcourse it would be more costly if she'd bring her whole family but it is really up to her. Maybe she was denied of the visa because God wants her to focus more on things that matter the most and not on superficial. Get married muna Anne and God will bless you and your family more abundantly.
@@glyeshua they are Married pero on Civil only, they wanted to get Married on Church talaga before pa, but since naisabay yung pag apply nila ng US Visa sa Wedding plans, supposedly yun muna talaga ang Priority sana nila. But as Mama Anne said, ok na din yung rejection nila for experience na din, we cannot blame them naman for what happend. Basta everything is on purpose, and for me for sure it is because of their Wedding 😊
Sometimes God holds you back temporarily until the road is safe and clear to continue.Be thankful for the stall. There is coronavirus outbreak latest news now there is one in california so maybe God keep your family not to go this time. You are blessed already in so many ways. In his time andyan lang naman ang US.
OA. It’s just US. Baka di ka naapprove kasi di ka bagay dun. Hahahahaha. Tsaka yung asawa mo walang trabaho. Umarte ka pa siguro ng kakamemorize mo. Ayan tuloy!
For me the reason why matagal the consul is trying to find a way to give you the visa even though you were inconsistent. But.. the moment you said you did not have family and basically lied (for many reasons probably) you were denied.
Based on my experience, u should keep a copy of the application. You should know what have input there and make sure na wala talagang kamag anak or anything na magdududa sila magsstay ka. Ok din na hindi magmemorize pero familiar lang sa questions and dapat genuine ang sagot Got mine approved on first try. Ten years agad. I just said i wanna go shopping and museums. I mentioned specific shopping areas and museums. Natuwa sa akin kasi ngiti ng ngiti yung consul. After tanungin kung ilang weeks lang dun, sabi ko i need to come back for something then ayun na. Tinangggap na. Wala pa atang 2 mins.
We also applied for US Tourist Visa last 2018 the main reason we wanted to go there is that because my Grandfather passed away and my Grandmum were all alone so we thought we could pick her up from NY to get her home here in the Philippines. We had every bank statement, letter from the nursing home and the hospital. My Grandmother also made a letter stating that in order for her to come back here in the Philippines she would need us to pick her up. She sent us every document needed to prove to the embassy that we wouldn’t stay there for long. So the day came, we were interviewed by this guy. We handed him all the documents including personal letter and id's from my Grandmother. But he didn’t even bother to read a line or two. So fast forward we tried again and unfortunately we didn’t pass. My grandmother passed away all alone in the nursing home last summer. And not to mention the amount we had to pay. It was a dream for me to come to the US and meet my Grandparents. But shame on the US embassy hell, shame on the US Government for making it so hard for us to enter their country. While there are loads of Americans in the Philippines being treated as Kings and Queens.
Nkakasad naman nun sis. Si pinsan ko naman na approve sya 10yrs nga yun sa kanya. Pero sa sg sya nag apply. Kaya advice nya sa akin. Wag sa pinas mag apply.
@@NikkiFilJapinAmerica Kasi po maraming illegal immigrants here sa U.S that's why inistrict ni President Trump.. Hindi kana basta basta makapunta dito unless if your husband is American..
Tips: 1 question 1 answer and be straight forward when answering those questions. Base on my experience pag madami na tinatapon na question sayo prang tagilid na.. I’d passed my US Visa way back 2013.
When applying a visa you have to be certain esp dates of your stay and hotel accommodation. They need a proof that you can support yourselves when you will be in the US. Also they want to hear that from you
Actually kahit meron ka nyan magdedepende pa rin yan sa nag interview kasi subjective sila eh kung hindi ka nila e bet ipapasa hindi ka talaga mkapasa.
Awww its okay Tita atleast na experience mo so next time you know what to expect. From what I heard sa mga stories of friends, sometimes depende daw talaga sa mood ng consul and your confidence in answering the questions. Much love from Cali. Next time Im sure pasado na! 🥰
Depende din kase minsann sa consul kahit totally prepared kapa . Yung iba kahit madami na travel history at malaki yung sahod denied padin. Dapat kung ano lang yung tanong yun lang ang sagot straight to the point lang dapat.marunong sila magbasa galaw mo. Siguro nga mama anne di pa yung timing niyo, try lang po nang try😊😊
Ang daming tanong. I applied for a US Visa in 2008, two questions lang ata. Yes, you are correct. The amount of money you have and the properties you own doesn’t matter. When I applied, I was in my early 20s. I only have $100 in my bank account. Wala din akong properties. The whole interview, the consul probably just looked at me twice. Most of time, she was looking at her computer. My answers were short. My sister and her kids applied three ago ata, she was denied the first time. After a few months, she tried again and they were granted the second time around. I think they are stricter now because of the current POTUS. Try applying after a few months and be confident with your answers. It is always good to come prepared pero don’t worry so much about practicing. Think about the interview as if it’s just a Q&A here on YT para confident and natural ka. Good luck on your next try! Kaya yan! ❤️
Queen KC Van Etta I can relate sayo sis. Yung interview ko mabilis lang din. 5 or 6 questions and tapos na. Wala nga ako dala Certificate of Employment nun dahil hindi umabot sakin (katatapos lang kasi ng bagyo nun sa Manila kaya delayed yung mga mail), I didn’t have any property like condo or car. I was just renting an apartment room. Halos ganyan din laman ng bank ko na amount. Muntik ko pa i-cancel ang interview ko dahil sabi ko nga papano pag humingi nung Certificate of Employment wala ako maipapakita. But I trusted God’s will and went. Ang saya ko kasi ni isang document wala hiningi sakin. Until now, naluluha ako kapag naalala ko interview ko. Mag isa lang kasi ako nun wala ako kasama. Umiiyak ako sa taxi pauwi para akong timang. Also, prayers helped a lot 😊
Always pray before the interview, smile, answer with confidence then if next time matanong about relatives,clarify nyopo ung mga yes and changed to no answers and say sorry then explain that u really have relatives but no communications,
Honesty has but one meaning. You cannot be “partially honest”. There is no “as much as possible” when we talk about honesty. You got denied simply because you were dishonest about some details and because you prioritized convenience over 100% transparency. And even in processing answers, do it on your own. Don’t look for validation on anyone else. God bless in your next application. Hope you learned a lot here!
Very important tip in US interview is to be natural & spontaneous. Just like any human being consuls are intimidated by "aires". Ayaw nila ng mayabang ang dating. It's not really about how much you can afford or how rich you are. Your information in the application is enough for the consul to be convinced. Wala na sila iba basehan, but on what your inputs are on the application. All the consul want now, is how you conduct the interview. Binabasa na body language mo when you walk into the counter. Be concise in your answers at hwag mahaba ang sagot. The most the consul will ask is 3 questions & they will decide kung approve ka. Kung sumobra sa 3 tanong, that will mean denial already.
aside from D Santos tips theres a church near ths us embassy just drop there while waiting for your time thats what i did and ask his guidance to give me a kind consulate who do not ask to much questions and help me a good answer . and its granted. I am so thankful they gave my family a multiple visa.
First experience ko sa interview for US Visa. Umamin ako sa interviewer na kinakabahan ako, tapos nag request ako ng interpreter sabi ko kase “I’m not confident with my English skills”. So, nag bigay sila American din sya pero marunong syang mag tagalog. So, ayun lahat ng tanong nya sinagot ko ng tagalog. Tapos nakapasa ako at the end. Ngayon 3 years na ako dito sa US😄
@@H3XANB3AST There's no way you're allowed to stay in the US for 5 years as a tourist. The most they give is 6 months upon entry on US soil. You probably mean your toursit visa is valid for 5 years either single or multiple entry. What in the world have you been doing in the US for 3 years as a tourist? What kind of resources do you have to support your life in America? In all probability, you're working illegally and you're one of the reasons the US is very strict in dispensing tourist visas to Filipinos. People like you give Filipinos a bad name. Better go back home to the Philippines ASAP. I have alerted ICE on you, Mandy Alcaraz. All information gathered from your FB account. Expect Homeland Security staff to pick you up for deportation any time now.
Based din s experience ko during interview sbi ko d ako marunong mgtagalog at mg english tinanong ako ng American consul kung anu lenggawahe alam kosbi ko my own dialect panggalatok tas nagpanggalatok sya antoy laen mod America kwanto 😂
You’ve got to have a good job that will make you go back home. It will be shown by your income tax return. Strong ties to the Philippines means meron kang gustong gustong balikan Sa Pinas na pipigil sa yo mag overstay sa US. Example, you have children or husband that you will leave behind, because for sure babalikan mo ang family member. Another example is that you have a good, high paying job that you will hate to lose if you overstay. Also you have to say you’re staying in a hotel. It shows that wala kayong mapagtataguan. Your job is online. It means you don’t need to come back to the Philippines. It’s a portable business and you can take it anywhere.
Second interview po multiple visa...lalo n reason nyo ikakasal kayo next year...yan po ay the best reason to go back in the phils or the best strong ties
@@matcradle i dont see the connection... they have interpreters should you need one. My friend's dad is bisaya and he requested for one, ayun nagbisaya silang dalawa sa interview lol...anything to make you feel comfortable
I'm planning to apply US VISA guys help naman. I have my boyfriend there he's Filipino din and i want to surprise him pag punta ko doon and ano dapat sabihin sa US embassy
@@shimiebrunio1014 US embassy is more doubtful with single women because the trend is they marry a US citizen when they get there. Not to discourage you but I know a lot who got denied. The moment you tell them you have a boyfriend there, Pinoy man o puti, it's a red flag. You can go ahead and try, but establish a different reason, not to visit or surprise your boyfriend.
I have a friend who got denied because she answered that she is a registered nurse. Nurses easily gets a job in US and you are bringing your whole family may imply that you have no reason to come back to the Philippines. Also you being a blogger means you can work anywhere convinces the consul that you may not comeback.
Bilang dito ako naka-base sa US I think your HUGE mistake is yung pagsabi mo na that you will be staying at your friend's vacation home. Let me tell you why. Every countries wants to be a tourist destination. The more tourist they have the more money they generate. Ano ano bang mga means to skim out money from the Tourists? Hotels, restaurants, amusement parks, transport services, and souvenirs. You already eliminated the major one which is the Hotel, kaya nagduda sa yo if you can really afford travelling. The interviewer must have thought na ang friend mo ang gagastos sa yo and that idea made them decide to disapprove your visa, that's aside from your response when asked about your income. Also, kung hesitant kang sagutin ang tanong na about income dahil maraming nakakarinig, you should have asked the interviewer if it's ok kung ipapakita mo na lang ang documents kasi diba dala mo naman. Mas advantage yon sa yo kesa nagpakita ka ng facial look that made them doubtful of you. Anyway, good luck for next time!
I partly disagree with this… Back in 2016 my entire family got approved for a visa. I remember during my interview, the immigration officer asked me what is the reason for my visit in US. I simply answered to see my grandparents and stay in their home for a week.
Overthinking yan or dahil mas mina-mind mo ang paligid mo kesa sa kung sinong nasa harap mo. Sa unang part palang nung nalaman mo na, "Ahh dito lang pala sa window yung interview, akala ko sa private room" yun palang cross na agad sa expectation mo na nag-lead sa pagiging taranta mo.
Sabi niya nanood daw siya ng vlog ni Raiza Contawi about sa US visa, pero mukhang echos lang ni Anne Clutz. Kasi ilang beses sinabi ni Rai, na sa window lang iinterviewhin.
In my opinion as someone who’s been granted a US visa (10 years multiple entry) Kailangan kasi you present proof that you will come back because you have a legitimate job that requires your physical presence in the Philippines, or you have real properties in the Philippines that you are taking care of. As a TH-camr, you can work anywhere in the world, you have no professional ties to the Philippines. Next time you apply, just say you are a big TH-camr and you want to start vlogging about other countries. It will show them na aalis ka din ng US eventually and will also remind them that hindi Lang sila ang bansang puwede mong ivlog.
i agreed with your comment. Physical employment from a reputable company is a must. Being Self employed is not a guaranty according to immigration attorney that you will come back to the phils specially she is a nurse.
You show an income that is above middle class in the us. So you should look at their chart depending on number how many members in your house hold...for sure you will have a travel insurance but they are looking at in case you got sick and hospitalized you can afford to pay out of your pocket.
@@schnitzlercrew I disagree. Money is only secondary, but the primary proof should be strong ties to the Philippines. People can loan money and dump it into the bank accounts just to "use as evidence" that they have money.
Hello, ask ko lang po, how about if youre just an employee (Call center agent), pero may mag sponsor and iinvite ka to visit them, mas malaki po ba ang chance na maapprove?
lesson learned dont be OVER confident!!! be spontaneous wag ka mgmemorize kc iba iba tlga questions nila, and maging honest tlga lalo na sa california mahigpit..
In my experience the consul never check documents. Just be honest & simple as possible. Avoid being "maarte". Consuls have good backgrounds in human psychology so they know if a person is phony or real. They are just ordinary people like us who make their decisions based on how they feel towards the interviewee.
mommy anne, kung ano po yung nasa application nyo ayun din po dapat yung sagot mo, straight to the point, honesty and eye to eye contact, no doubt, dapat. mahigpit ang US pero prayer lang mama anne, ma aaproved din po kayo.
Wag mashado over confident.. relax lang.. mas ok kung sa hotel magstay kesa sa bahay ng family friend, or relatives.. kse may capacity ka naman to pay for hotel accomodation.. wag mashado maraming sinasabe.. or mashadong maraming explanation.. straight forward answers dapat.. also, ung length of stay kailangan exact..pate ung list of places na gusto puntahan na pasok for the length of stay.. and yes dapat consistent ang nasa application form sa mga actual na sagot.. I got 10yrs visa and less than 3 mins lang interview ko.. questions lang to me were, where do i work, how much do i earn (walang elaboration), where will i stay (nabingi pako nung tinanong ako, inulet pa ng consul) and if i already have children.. (mejo natawa pa ko nung sumagot ako kse wala pa at that time) yan lang.. then approved na.. Usually kse na review na nila ang application mo kaya nga scheduled ung interview.. nasa database na nila lahat yan.. Travel muna kayo sa other visa countries mama ann.. it helps.. like japan, europe.. 😊
Matet S agree. before pa dumating sa embassy nareview na nila un application mo. pag mdmi sinsbi minsan cause din yun ng pagkadeny bec inconsistent na mga sgot..
Hi !!! I don't know how I came across your vlog, but I want to share my opinion oh why you may have been denied the tourist visa. I am also a Filipino, a registered nurse as well, and have been here in the US for 25 yrs. Just listening to the flow of conversation and the questions he/she was asking, I just want to share my opinion on the denial. So, the MOST IMPORTANT thing you really have to PROVE to them is YOU HAVE EVERY REASON TO "COME BACK HOME" and CANNOT LEAVE ANY OPEN ENDED ANSWERS why you could change your mind and decide to stay while you're here. 1. Business - is your business mostly managed online? Do you have a physical location to run your business at all? If it's all online based, there's no reason why you can't run your online business here as well. Provide evidence why your physical presence there is necessary for your business. 2. You're a nurse also. There's every reason why you may decide to stay here and not have any trouble finding a job as a nurse here. Not all hospitals, etc require the 3 yr experience to be able to work here. The nursing shortage here is so bad that they will hire anyone with no prior experience there and just train them after. Are you still licensed as a RN? If you can convince them that's not something you still want to do eventually, it shouldn't raise a red flag to them. 3. Income - you mentioned he/she acted surprised with your business income. If you make quite a bit with your business, then you can well afford to resettle and continue your online business here. I know that you're not going to be a financial burden to the US government for any kind of aid, but they have can say you're not being honest with your application as a tourist but have every means to migrate. 4. Who's coming to the US? If EVERYONE is coming, then there's no reason why you need to go back. Is your Dad not coming? I know your mom was with you for the interview. 5. And how long do you plan to stay? 2 weeks. Perhaps it sounded like you just wanted your foot in the door. I'm sure it did not come across very realistic to them. There's so much to see here 1 month is not enough. Plan for a 4-6 weeks stay. Land in New York and drive down to Florida. You have to see New York City, Washington, DC then Orlando and last stop in Miami. And lots of place to see besides those major destinations along the way.....Atlantic City, Myrtle Beach, Virginia Beach, Atlanta, Georgia, Savannah, Georgia, Charleston, South Carolina, etc. I went home last July and 3 weeks felt like it went by quickly. And you're right about them checking your social media accounts. I know there are companies here who checks potential candidates' social media and base it from there if you're hired or not. I don't know if I am helpful in any way, but I wish you guys the best of luck in your next application. Also, tell your kids, FORGET Disneyland. You need to go to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. The Disney Park is way, way, way bigger. AND.... there's EPCOT Center with the Showcase of the World. AND Universal Studios.... with the new Harry Potter world. I haven't been yet. None of those in California. I am based in the East Coast and Orlando is just 9 hours drive from me. Good luck. It's not about how much you make and all. YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOU HAVE EVERY REASON TO GO BACK HOME.
@@gtc471no they didn’t lol. this was the first and last time they ever mentioned going to the US. probably because allot happened when covid happened, and re-applying is too much time.
Prior to coming for your interview, you're being checked (yung background mo, family, pati relatives abroad, and businesses and stuff) so may verdict na yan sila sayo. Cross-check na lang kung consistent. Sa online application palang po alam na nila. If you state the length of your stay po, tell them after na kailangan kayo bumalik sa Pilipinas kasi may business, etc. Kumbaga, walang reason for you to stay longer kasi andito yung buhay mo sa Pilipinas. Bihira sila kumuha ng documents talaga. As in pure interview sila kasi na-background check ka na nila bago ka pa dumating. Better luck next time po, and just be honest, real and straight to the point.
Sa US po kasi lahat ng pinoy nurses pumapasok sa home for the aged na natrigger siguro sa sagot ni mama anne don sa tanong na y not work abroad is ndi better i think its a test sa knia kung may balak ba siang magwork sa US, iba po kasi talaga thinking ng consul sa mga nurses
My question was „why are you applying for US Visit visa? i just answered it very simple... i wanna have selfie photo with Ms. Liberty and i will post it in my FB... the consul laughed and she gave me Multiple visa!
Its me PEDRO PAN actually, formality yon personal interview ng consul. Weeks before that, na VEROFY NA NG EMBASSY ang background at financial capabilities ng applicant kaya 1 or 2 minutes lng yon interview. Either, denied or aprub
Just be casual, consider the interview as any day to day conversation. That's what I did more than 4 decades ago when applying for my working visa (H1). Good luck next time.
2014 i applied mine , i remember fresh graduate ako , never been in any country , sobrang lutong pa ng passport ko nun, wala pang 10minutes ang interview ko about langit ang kaba ko nun nung nag apply ko, pero ayun na approve naman sya ,
I lived and worked in the US for 40 years. I decided to retire here in the Philippines, moved back here in January. The US is not as good as it was years ago. I feel bad that you get rejected but really, you did not lose anything. Try going to Europe, if you haven’t been there yet. Again, i am pissed that the consul rejected tourists who will spend money in the US. Anyway, sleep tight and don’t feel bad!
I have experienced the feelings of getting approved (1st application) and denied (2nd application). Syempre, happy noong na-approved, not just because of the certainty of going to the US, but also because hindi nasayang yung perang binayad for the interview. Nakaka-demoralize at nakakalungkot pag na-deny, hindi lang dahil nasayang ang binayad, pero dahil the consul made me feel not good enough to go to the US again despite not violating my previous visa.
As you said, di nmn ganun ka importante why you applied and want to go to the US. Maybe, this is a sign na you must prioritize things first, be contented on what you have and you have already went.
You need to be honest whether its your 1st application or 10th try.Always remember they keep all the records from the beginning. They can track all the relatives you have if you put then on the application. Second, just answer straight & right to the point.The more maboka at paikot-ikot ka the more ma-deny ka.Third, about sa relatives stay the more they prefer if you're gonna be staying in a hotel/ vacation package itinerary not airbnb.Coz that gives them assurance that you wont be over staying in the US. Plus about sa business/job they prefer an answer that your business is worth enough for you to go back to the Phils. You need to tell them if they ask you how much you're making.They dont care if other applicants cant hear it. Remember, it's not there business( other applicants).The conversation is between you & the consul. The main point, the are preventing TNT. Lastly some consul can detect if you're lying, nervous or hiding something. Some consul get irritated if someone else is answering for you.Meaning king ikaw ang tinatanong, nobody else can answer. This are just some points that our lawyer taught me 10years ago when I as applied for visa.
Being someone who lives in the US, even when applying for adjustment of status here. The most important thing to do is to show and prove that you will not overstay in the US and that you have more than enough reasons that you will be coming back to your country.
Maam.balak q oa nma mag bakasyonnsa US na mag apply aw ng tourush visa mat fren aq dun na invite aq nya na mabakasyon gajun pala.Maam baka ma reject din aw pag na enterview aq
This is very informative for me, me and husband is applying for a US Visa the next months, I’m a stay at home mom but we’re just going there to attend a graduation, by Gods Grace will be approved😍
Jacqui Goodflower > that is a valid reason. Just be sure, you add “ we won’t be staying long after that because we have things and other responsibilities to take care of back home.”
i want to share some thoughts about this vlog: 1. lahat ng B1-B2 visa applicants are seen as potential na mag TTNT....kaya the BURDEN of PROOF na babalik ka lies on the applicant. 3 things you need to establish when you apply for a US visa. number 1: STRONG TIES here in the philippines: family, business, properties, career, education. number 2 financial capacity to travel number 3 valid reason to travel. ..yes, tama ka dun sa mga points mo kung bakit sa tingin mo na denied kayo. regarding dun sa hesitation mo to disclose your average monthly income, alam mo walang pakialam ung ibang applicants doon kung ano sabihin mo. it is not even, mag titimbre sila na abangan ka ng kasabwat nila sa labas para kidnapin kasi marami kang pera. during an interview, do not mind other people. concentrate on your conversation with the consul. they read body language too. you should have stood up straight with hands on your side and controlled your nervousness. and yes tama ka, whatever you replied on the application form, dapat un din ang isasagot mo during the actual interview. kasi bago ka pa humarap sa kanya, nabasa na nya ang application form mo. asking you the same question is simply testing if you are replying the same answer. lastly, did you pray to God for this interview? ultimately it is God who answers prayer.
When you apply next time, don’t say you’re staying with family or friends. Also, I suggest don’t bring your mom too. Go with your family lang muna. There’s a chance they will think your mom will overstay there because she’s already retired and you have family and friends in the US. They will think she has no ties to go back to the Philippines. Opinion ko lang. Try getting a Schengen visa muna before re applying again, you have higher chances of getting US visa if naka travel na kayo sa Europe.
Is that so? Thank you sa tip . Ask ko lang madali lang ba pag Europe? Kasi sa dami ko nababasa na blog may mga blogger na grant ng US visa pag nakailang balik na sila sa europe. Ano pong meron ?
Nope i disagree my mom applied for tourist visa and was granted 10 years multiple entry she has no job but have properties to show and bank statements. Her mom being senior citizen has more chance getting the visa..
Mahirap din po ang schengen visa kami po nagapply ng 2x pero denied po kami we have stable businesses here & nagsend ng guarantee letter yung agency na inavaillan namin ng package tour, nagsubmit din kami ng cover letter explaining the our purpose, , complete docs po kami w/ supporting docs din, but twice kami na denied with the same reason ng france embassy point #8 justification of purpose & conditions of the intended stay was not reliable though meron kaming day to day itinerary provided by the agency kung san kami nag avail ng tour package & yun nga we submitted cover letter. I think depende po talaga sa consul kase yung ibang mga na approved na kasama namin sa tour single w/o business or employed but na approved naman po sila. But i believe po talaga na baka nd pa will ni God baka nd papo time or may reason sa rejection. Inisip nalang po namin na gusto lang ni God yung best for us.
Ayessa Millsap You are a resident if not a citizen in the US so obvious na ma grant ng visa mom mo. Your mom’s case is different from them. Sa case nila sumabit lang ang nanay nya sa application nila. Galing pa ng Qatar nanay nya and stayed there for years.
Just a thought po...I don’t think that being a nurse is a hindrance of taking the visit visa,I’m a nurse po and I was granted 10 years visa.My interview lasted for 2-3 mins. only.
hello ms. anne, share ko rin experience ko, and true enough tama po yung sinabi nyo na BE Honest, sa aking part dinala ko rin lahat ng necessary papers pero hindi rin nila kinuha, we have almost the same set questions, eye contact is important, then napapanuod ko rin sa ibang vlog pag nurse ka it’ll be hard to get the visa kasi may tendency na ma denied, but clearly hindi dahil nurse or kung ano man ang profession, it is the way you answer the questions, if hindi ka sure its okay to say na u don’t know rather than making a pre-prepared answers. example nung nag ask ang consul na anong kind ng visa ng relatives ko nung pumunta na US, honestly i don’t know if working, tourist or immigrant so i said “i don’t know”. kala ko hindi ako makakakuha ng visa, ending sinabi ng consul in 3 days you will get your passport sa Empost, kala ko confiscated hehe ibig sabihin pala na-approved ako, so now i got 10yrs multiple visa... 👍🏻 so for those who are applying tama po si Ms. Anne be honest lang po sa pag sagot, mga consul na nag tataning magaling sila magbasa ng body language kaya be relax. good luck sa future applications!
Got denied 5 times sa tourist visa, my reason why I applied was to take my pharmacy exam, applied for J1 visa the last time( studied culinary arts for a year) I got approved the sixth time. Today, I am now a pharmacist intern and I am now a green card holder. There's always time for everything.
They're standard questions like when crossing borders. They're trained or meant to intimidate. Honest and short answers. They need to make sure you have definite arrival and departure dates, where are you staying and what kind of work you do (to know if you have enough financially for that travel). They want to make sure you're going back home. Believe it or not, they're watching the applicants as soon as you walk in.
No worry Ann time will come. Makakapag travel kayong family sa US. Ngayon alam mo na for the interview. Kung anong nakalagay sa application mo yun ang question nila. Because it happens to me na ma interview rin ng consul. Make sure you pray before you go. I went to Antipolo Church with my family before the interview. My prayers is answered. So dont loose hope. And I'll pray na makapasa na kayo for the next interview. God blessed your family 🙏🙏🙏
Is it ok to disclose those question in this video? Baka eventually they will conduct a background check in the future and ma found out nila about it...
Yes! Background check is serious! It has to be taken into consideration. Applying for a fed job in americ alone takes a long time to process and that's if you got hired and have an intense background check after background check. I'm just and just curious if they have seen and checked your other vlog about your application...
I’m a US citizen here sa states, my mom got denied when we applied for her tourist visa last yr. This country is very strict, di basta basta magpapasok na kahit sino.
First of all when applying US visa dapat yung mga sagot mo ayh honesty at heartily lang talaga. Yun ang gusto nilang marinig sa mga taong nag aapply ng US visa. Kac no matter how prepared or na memorized yung isasagot mo pagdating mo sa actual mawawala ka talaga sa isasagot mo kac scripted kung baga yung ginagawa mo. Pero kapag totally honest at heartily yung sagot mo kahit ilang batong questions pa yan ang ibibigay zau masasagot at masasagot mo yan kac d scripted yung mga moves and answers mo. Yan lang talaga guyz. D pa naman ako nakapag apply ng US Visa pero sister ko yan mismo ginagawa nya yung mag act normal, honest at nasa puso talaga ang sagot. Kac mga consul ay grabe yan cla magbasa ng tao. At saka yung DS mo at ang isasagot mo dapat nagkaka coincide yan pinaka importante sa lahat. Bibigyan ka agad ng blue paper kapag denied agad. Kac kapag tingin nla sa system nla na finill upon mo para sa appointment mo at iba rin ang isasagot bagsak talaga nyan cgurado.
Nung nag apply ako noong November 2019, yan din naririnig ko sa mga kasabay ko na-interview. Tinatanong ng consul if anything has changed dun sa status from the last time you applied. Tapos denied in seconds lang. Wala ng ibang tanong. Not sure lang kung ganun din sa family application.
Napansin ko din yan while im having my interview for petition. Sabi ko bakit ang bilis sa kabila yun pala halos mga deny na agad mga nakapila. Just be true and natural sa interview. May right timing talaga kung approved or hindi 😌
One rule of thumb...never never show the consul that you're intimidated by him. Be smart & sound very sure of yourself. They can read your body language & they size you up by the way you answer.
I was granted a ten-year visa almost three years ago, I was unemployed that time. I was accompanied by my dad (who currently holds a us visa) and sisters. The American at the counter asked the same questions. We also practiced our answers. I remembered we showed no anxiousness but excitement. I was asked what was my present occupation, instead of saying none, i said i just graduated last tuesday and if i will come back to the philippines. I also said yes at that time because i needed to take my licensure exams on september. We enumerated the countries we've been to and kung saan kami matutulog. We said we were to stay at a relative's house and my parents were to fund my expenses since I was unemployed. When the lady asked my dad what was our purpose for visiting, he simply said "Disneyland". I think she was mildly entertained, then told us that we get our 10 year visa. No formal attire here, just pants, sandals and blouse; the important key is not to say a lot of things, just a word or phrase. Makukuha mo din yan, mama anne, dont worry.
luise delarea now a days the disneyland answer is not a solid answer anymore. Because jf i am the consul i will tell the applicants why not hongkong disneyland where you don’t need a visa no more and is near and cheaper....i will honestrly says ,i will explore the USA ..visit some of the tourist spots, other cities and enjoy my vacation...by the way, ii am an american citizen 😊.
these are my simple tips. learning experience po yan mam hehe... mainly po kasi they will refer sa personality and gesture mo. documents is just to justify lang sa sinasabi mo don't use any relative or friends better to book a hotel or airbnb. be truthful just don't care about other applicants. isang tip n narinig ko (but I dont know if applicable din sa pilipinas) is to travel in any european country like UK. this is what we did actually before applying US visa dito sa Dubai just to prove na you can travel and come back to philippines. Siempre po iba kasi pag sinabing nagtravel k ng Europe hehe. it might be a different process here pero mostly po eto ung prinovide namin and thankfully wala masyado tanong samin.. ung mga general question like anong gagawin sa US, sang particular part ng US. we have the same answer na gusto namin makapunta ng disneyland but we also said that we love to travel and recently nga nagtravel kami ng UK and Edinbrugh etc.... and ung salary din nmin tinanong and we just answer it directly. We dont mind the other applicant kasi kahit marinig nila un di nmn papasok sa utak nila kasi kahit sila kabado narin hahahaha lastly po is just relax. dont think it as an interview it just a conversation. :) Goodluck po sa next application nio.
Simple lang ang problema sa interview mo: You showed inconsistency, doubt and lack of firm assurance with your answers. Remember, consul KNOWS that everyone who wants to visit US has STRONG INTENT TO MIGRATE. Your job was to prove that you HAVE STRONG TIES returning to PH. If you CAN'T convince them with your answers then you will be denied. What is Section 214(b)? The Immigration and Naturalization Act (INA) states under Section 214b that: Every alien shall be presumed to be an immigrant until he establishes to the satisfaction of the consular officer, at the time of application for admission, that he is entitled to a nonimmigrant status... What it means is that a consular officer must view every nonimmigrant visa applicant as an intending immigrant who is planning to visit and then permanently stay in the U.S. The applicant, therefore, must prove to the officer that s/he is going to return home after the temporary visit. If the consular officer is not satisfied, he is required to deny the nonimmigrant visa application.
yes and it's not the amount of your money in the bank and your properties that will assure you to have a US visa, it should be your honesty and consistency... Answer the questions briefly....
Based sa mga answers mo.... madedeny talaga... *you staying with relatives *poor reason for vacation - kasi marami namn na disneyland sa asia *uncertain of your business ( number of personnel, income, clear delegation of works) *your reasoning why not work as a nurse abroad... “unfortunately “ means you still hope to practice as nurse but situations didnt allow you... redflag yun. *denying any relatives... goodluck next time... and dont be too confident/ expect too much..
Correct sa poor reason for vacation, at saka yun reason why not work as a nurse abroad...hindi nya sana sinabi na nahihirapan siya maghanap ng work as a nurse. At saka correct rin sa paggamit ng “unfortunately”. Regarding sa relatives, they asked you kung meron ka pictures of yout relatives sa US at saka kung ano ang complete address nila and telephone no.
Same profession po tayo. Kitang kita po sa boses and body movements mo na you are so nervous even nagkwekwento ka nalang how much more po kaya doon sa mismo interview, pareho tayo bigla kinakabahan kapag mga interview.😥❤
I’m sorry to hear about your experience. With the help of a good (Filipino) friend, I understood most of what you were saying. A couple of tips: Even if it’s true, don’t tell the interviewer that you “really want to see Disneyland”. That’s pretty lame. There are several Disneylands around the world, including a few in Southeast Asia. In their minds, they will think - why not just visit the Disneyland that’s closer to Manila. It’s better to tell them something unique like wanting to experience and visit the many places in America that you have heard so much about - including Disney World. And if you plan on staying in hotels, it’s better to state that instead of “staying with relatives or friends”. But only if it’s true! They have been known to ask for proof of your hotel reservations. And if you know you’re nervous and are afraid the interviewer will notice, just smile and try not to act like you’re trying too hard. They know people get nervous but they don’t want to see someone who is completely rattled and incoherent. Practice being calm. And it’s okay to make eye contact. Just don’t stare! And be completely honest about everything. And remember, they want to be convinced that you are returning home!
My take on this. *1. Since you earn well, might have been better to mention that you will be staying in an airbnb or hotel. This will show the consul of your financial capacity to travel and will match the income you have indicated. Kasi parang sasabihin nya they earn well but cannot afford to stay in a hotel. *2. When asked about your income. Always say at the end, I have documents here with me to prove our income. *you are giving her the idea that you earn that well, you can prove it and pwede nya hingin. *3. When asked about how long will you be staying in the US. You should have mentioned 2 weeks only because we cannot take leave for so long because of our business. This will give the consul the thought that you will really comeback as your business depends on you = ties and rootedness *4. When asked about your previous job as a nurse. Never mentioned na you haven't really practiced it. Just say something more on your business or being a vlogger. Something like: I am a registered Nurse but over the years my blog/YT channel has helped my family so much that I was able to buy or build our own house, saved money, travel abroad and established our own business. I would love to practice being a nurse but blogging has given me financial freedom and more time with my family that's why I have chosen not to practice it and we're happy to help and employ 16 employees. *you are stressing na malaki earnings nyo with blogging and you cant leave your family thats why abroad is never an option = ties and rootedness *5. When asked about your travels. Stress the countries that you have travelled with the family to highlight your capacity to finance the trip. Regarding Maldives, it was a chance to say about your financial capacity. Mention about Maldives in your travel list just like the US or about the birthday gift. Baka the consul also thought "beach" in Maldives and "disneyland" in California don't really blend well. Why Maldives? It was a bday gift and also one of our bucketlist. A lot of filipinos would love to visit but only few can afford that is why we want to visit it and experience some luxury for the Family. Iisipin nya may pera nga sila. *6. Consul usually asked 2 things about family. 1st about immediate family meaning children, husband, siblings or parents. If none, say no. 2nd about relatives. This is very tricky. Consul usually think that each Filipino has a relative abroad. You can say yes. But if they asked more questions like name or place or work. Honestly say anything you know. Like, I know she/he lives in blah2x but dont know more information. And we do not have plans to visit him/her as our time is very limited for this travel. *you are stressing that the purpose is not to visit your relatives. *7. Follow-up nya why not work abroad? Say like: Even as a nurse I dont really have plans to work abroad because of my family and eventually I earned even more than people working abroad. *stressing again na you earn well and that you dont want to leave your family = ties and rootedness
Aww ok lang yan Ms. Anne. Try lang ulit. Nakakalungkot lang kasi effort talaga mag apply ng US Visa. Pero thanks for sharing your experience with your Visa application. ❤️❤️❤️
When we apply for our visa, Disneyland lang po sinabi namin and we were approved naman as in un lang sinabi namin na reason bakit kami ppnta ng US. Possible naman mapprove if ganun ang mggng reason mo, pero kailangan din hindi ka kabahan, just be natural lang kasi nkkita nila yun on how you answer questions. Sabi nila dapat "Isang tanong isang sagot lang" di mo na kailangan elaborate pa. Praying for your next application sana maapprove! God bless!
I was given US visa with multiple entries last November 2019 and i'm here in California right now for 3 months as tourist. First mistake mo is kailangan definite k sa number of days ng bakasyon mo say 15 days. 2nd mistake mo where will you stay sana sinabi mo yong complete address house # and street. Kc gusto ng consul alam n alam mo yong pupuntahan mo. Good luck next time. Mas maganda mag suot k ng nka blazer at wag mo ilagay sa dashboard yong kmay mo at diretso lng tayo mo wag galaw ng galaw tingin k lng sa consul with smile.
it’s ok for them to hear your answer. infact, most of the people in the US embassy is also busy thinking how will they answer the possible question/s. also, it is a plus if someone here in the US will invite you and ask them to make a letter stating that they invited you to their house while you guys staying in the US.
Pinaka importante talaga be truthful. Dahil kung meron kang tinatago mahahalata din yun for being inconsistent with your answers. Lahat ng nilagay mo sa ds 160 dapat tugma sa answers mo sa interview.
Point ko lng to: dapat be honest: kc before the interview na spy na lahat background at knowing na ang mga consul ay psychologist mga yan: pag sumagot be confident lalo facial expression ng applicant:
yes. it happened to my best friend. he was informed by the consul, "do you have a major change in circumstance for us to change our decision?" then denied outright. once you get 2 denials, lalo na mas mahirap.
maybe you sounded too scripted with your replies that's why you were denied ... i believe it's best not to memorize your answers since the questions are all about you and your personal cirsumstances ...
Dapat memorize mo yung isasagot mo na nasa sinagutan mo application. Kasi pag nagkamali ka kahit isa ay madedeny ka. at sabi nila hirap talaga mag apply namg visa ngayon... may qouta sila sa isang taon ilan pwede na nila ipasok sa US. Try nila ulit.✌️
Hello there, as a Filipino who has been living in the U.S. for the last 20 years, I just wanted to share some things that might have raised red flags on your part when interviewing for a U.S. visa. First, if the consul sees that you are a little bit jittery and nervous, this will present to the consul that you are nervous, which could translate that you might be lying. Of course if you had done your homework, you should NEVER underestimate the US Embassy for obvious reasons. They usually research the applicant first days before you actually go there for an interview. I suspect that your reported annual income, the fact that you have to do a TH-cam vlog as added income, your retired mom, the fact that you are staying with a friend during your vacation, your indecisiveness as to how long you're going for vacation, and the fact that you're an RN in the Philippines who could not practice your own profession ALL contributed to your being denied. I am glad though that you have not waivered and hopefully, try applying again. Good luck! p.s. Just my personal opinion, with you divulging all the details of your denial in a public TH-cam vlog may not help your case. Remember, big brother is ALWAYS watching.
I agree. The red flag was because you are a nurse and you could work immediately in the states as caregiver (under the table) as a lot of Filipino women do.
Parang nag-ba base din sa nature of work kaya dito? Sa parents and sister ko mabilis din, eh. Year long business that they really need to attend to, kaya siguradong babalik sila. Nung first time, 5 years visa. Second time... they got 10 years. Our close relatives naman, they serve as sponsors while the family is vacationing. Lastly, maybe what the consul felt about the whole interview.
Ms.Anne, according to my American husband,his opinion,when you're going to apply for tourist visa for the USA,just book a hotel where you can stay like 2 to 3 days upon arriving,so when you are ask where you're going to stay,you can give the name of the hotel!Because saying that you will be staying on your friend's house,is a minus point to them bcoz it means,you have some support from them..just our opinion
I agree here Mam its best to book a Hotel the way my brother did when He applied for the visa.actually even before the Interview he already made a booking prior to the date of Interview.and My Bros reason mainly of travelling and applying for a US Visa was his love for Broadway musical in New York which is His edge for proving his reasons for travelling to NY.tho we have all our relatives living in The US.
2 things na sa tingin ko negative sa nag interview sayo. 1. The type of business you have. Baka naisip nung consul na yung business mo can go on maski nasa ibang bansa ka kasi its an online business. So yung ties mo sa bansa hindi ganun k strong dahil wala yung thought na may babalikan ka hanap buhay. 2. You are a Nurse. Just keep on trying, for sure your application will get to a good consul’s hand for approval. Good luck!
Based from my experience, yes you need to be ready but not practiced answers, the US consuls know how to determine if your answers are scripted or not as well. And yes answering HONESTLY and straight to the point helps a lot. Lastly, the last question about relatives was definitely a red flag to them, since in there was a discrepancy between the 1st and 2nd visa applications.
Yes, that's the mistake you made, the first application is still in their database.so when you changed the answer to "no relatives" naging questionable..good luck sa next application!
Try and try mama anne 😉❤️ God is neved late nor early, He is always on time. Tip ko lang po. Pray po kayo the night before and sa pag gising. It works really well 🙏🏻 I hope and pray that you would pass the interview next time. Trust the Lord always. Love you mama anne 😍

Raymond Villanoza tama po ito. Hindi good ang sobrang daming details sa answer po.
Agree, short and precise answers.
Raymond Villanoza same questions
@@marjoriesabido7390 Iba ang departure immigration kesa sa visa application. Magkaiba yon. Sa immigration, 20 seconds lang ako. San bansa then tatak after makita card.
Kailangan maging kampante kalang, makinig na mabuti sa tanong ng interviewer, hindi kailangan pinauulit ang tanong( isa tanong, isa sagot lang), remember ko nuon ako ang ininterview, meron ako katabi, puno ng alahas sa katawan, ang dami land title pa dala, narinig ko ang tanong sa kanya ng consul” Do you drive”” sagot niya No, sabi ng consul: how come you have your driver license , sagot ni girl naman: because we have driver, pinakita na mayaman siya, ayon na denied siya, cguro sa dami nmin nuon naka schedule, more than 100 cguro , mga 4 lang kami na bigyan ng Multiple VISA , umiyak yon sinasabi nkasabay ko yon!! saka hindi sinasagot ng Tama ang mga tanong!! Another try , another bayad, masakit din sa bulsa, i think mataas na ang bayad ngayon! nuon time ko bayad ko lang $100, !!Better luck nxt time, this time I heard iba na nman ang law sa mga new applicant!!!👍👍👍
A rejection is only a redirection. Maybe God is protecting you from something! God’s timing is always perfect!
I really believe in this.
True
Yes
True
Lalo na MaY Corona virus sis God has a Plan ..kaYa na Denied Kasi MaY dahilan God bless and goodluck next time sis..
Ang hirap pala mag- apply ng visa papuntang US. Family vacation lang naman dun tas na denied pa. Super qualified ka naman Ms. Anne when it comes to your intention and financial situation.
Maybe the Lord said " Prioritize what's more important, which is your Wedding"
@@RNssssss we cannot question their expenses kasi afford naman nila, pero everything they have is because from the Lord, kaya gusto rin ni Lord na mailagay sa tamang lugar or position ang lahat ng mga anak niya, sa case ni Mama Anne, since they have the plans to get Married on church, mas maganda talaga if iyon muna ang priority nila 😊
Oh? Are they not married yet? You are right ate, first things first. Actually i spent a thousand bucks when i went to the US last year. Ofcourse it would be more costly if she'd bring her whole family but it is really up to her. Maybe she was denied of the visa because God wants her to focus more on things that matter the most and not on superficial. Get married muna Anne and God will bless you and your family more abundantly.
@@glyeshua they are Married pero on Civil only, they wanted to get Married on Church talaga before pa, but since naisabay yung pag apply nila ng US Visa sa Wedding plans, supposedly yun muna talaga ang Priority sana nila. But as Mama Anne said, ok na din yung rejection nila for experience na din, we cannot blame them naman for what happend. Basta everything is on purpose, and for me for sure it is because of their Wedding 😊
Sometimes God holds you back temporarily until the road is safe and clear to continue.Be thankful for the stall. There is coronavirus outbreak latest news now there is one in california so maybe God keep your family not to go this time. You are blessed already in so many ways. In his time andyan lang naman ang US.
OA. It’s just US. Baka di ka naapprove kasi di ka bagay dun. Hahahahaha. Tsaka yung asawa mo walang trabaho. Umarte ka pa siguro ng kakamemorize mo. Ayan tuloy!
Tips during visa interview: be confident, be honest, answer questions with a short, precise and direct to the point answers
You have so much on your mind while in the interview. Less words, less mistakes. Isang tanong, isang sagot.
For me the reason why matagal the consul is trying to find a way to give you the visa even though you were inconsistent. But.. the moment you said you did not have family and basically lied (for many reasons probably) you were denied.
Re apply, just a piece of advice, don’t lie and be comfortable.
Based on my experience, u should keep a copy of the application. You should know what have input there and make sure na wala talagang kamag anak or anything na magdududa sila magsstay ka. Ok din na hindi magmemorize pero familiar lang sa questions and dapat genuine ang sagot
Got mine approved on first try. Ten years agad. I just said i wanna go shopping and museums. I mentioned specific shopping areas and museums. Natuwa sa akin kasi ngiti ng ngiti yung consul. After tanungin kung ilang weeks lang dun, sabi ko i need to come back for something then ayun na. Tinangggap na. Wala pa atang 2 mins.
Yan ang ginawa ko.. talagang ni review ko ang na submit ko sa kanila.. I got approve!
We also applied for US Tourist Visa last 2018 the main reason we wanted to go there is that because my Grandfather passed away and my Grandmum were all alone so we thought we could pick her up from NY to get her home here in the Philippines. We had every bank statement, letter from the nursing home and the hospital. My Grandmother also made a letter stating that in order for her to come back here in the Philippines she would need us to pick her up. She sent us every document needed to prove to the embassy that we wouldn’t stay there for long. So the day came, we were interviewed by this guy. We handed him all the documents including personal letter and id's from my Grandmother. But he didn’t even bother to read a line or two. So fast forward we tried again and unfortunately we didn’t pass. My grandmother passed away all alone in the nursing home last summer. And not to mention the amount we had to pay. It was a dream for me to come to the US and meet my Grandparents. But shame on the US embassy hell, shame on the US Government for making it so hard for us to enter their country. While there are loads of Americans in the Philippines being treated as Kings and Queens.
Shelley Lumanog lalo na si trump and president sis. super higpit na tlga ng immigration
NOT TO MENTION THEY ONLY ASKED 4 QUESTIONS. LIKE WTF IS WRONG W U GUYS 😭
😭
Nkakasad naman nun sis. Si pinsan ko naman na approve sya 10yrs nga yun sa kanya. Pero sa sg sya nag apply. Kaya advice nya sa akin. Wag sa pinas mag apply.
@@NikkiFilJapinAmerica Kasi po maraming illegal immigrants here sa U.S that's why inistrict ni President Trump.. Hindi kana basta basta makapunta dito unless if your husband is American..
Tips: 1 question 1 answer and be straight forward when answering those questions. Base on my experience pag madami na tinatapon na question sayo prang tagilid na.. I’d passed my US Visa way back 2013.
When applying a visa you have to be certain esp dates of your stay and hotel accommodation. They need a proof that you can support yourselves when you will be in the US. Also they want to hear that from you
Graylaw tv pls. Check it helps....✌🏽
Actually kahit meron ka nyan magdedepende pa rin yan sa nag interview kasi subjective sila eh kung hindi ka nila e bet ipapasa hindi ka talaga mkapasa.
Awww its okay Tita atleast na experience mo so next time you know what to expect. From what I heard sa mga stories of friends, sometimes depende daw talaga sa mood ng consul and your confidence in answering the questions. Much love from Cali. Next time Im sure pasado na! 🥰
Narinig ko din yan sis. Depende sa mood.
Depende din kase minsann sa consul kahit totally prepared kapa . Yung iba kahit madami na travel history at malaki yung sahod denied padin. Dapat kung ano lang yung tanong yun lang ang sagot straight to the point lang dapat.marunong sila magbasa galaw mo. Siguro nga mama anne di pa yung timing niyo, try lang po nang try😊😊
Ang daming tanong. I applied for a US Visa in 2008, two questions lang ata. Yes, you are correct. The amount of money you have and the properties you own doesn’t matter. When I applied, I was in my early 20s. I only have $100 in my bank account. Wala din akong properties. The whole interview, the consul probably just looked at me twice. Most of time, she was looking at her computer. My answers were short. My sister and her kids applied three ago ata, she was denied the first time. After a few months, she tried again and they were granted the second time around. I think they are stricter now because of the current POTUS. Try applying after a few months and be confident with your answers. It is always good to come prepared pero don’t worry so much about practicing. Think about the interview as if it’s just a Q&A here on YT para confident and natural ka. Good luck on your next try! Kaya yan! ❤️
Queen KC Van Etta I can relate sayo sis. Yung interview ko mabilis lang din. 5 or 6 questions and tapos na. Wala nga ako dala Certificate of Employment nun dahil hindi umabot sakin (katatapos lang kasi ng bagyo nun sa Manila kaya delayed yung mga mail), I didn’t have any property like condo or car. I was just renting an apartment room. Halos ganyan din laman ng bank ko na amount. Muntik ko pa i-cancel ang interview ko dahil sabi ko nga papano pag humingi nung Certificate of Employment wala ako maipapakita. But I trusted God’s will and went. Ang saya ko kasi ni isang document wala hiningi sakin. Until now, naluluha ako kapag naalala ko interview ko. Mag isa lang kasi ako nun wala ako kasama. Umiiyak ako sa taxi pauwi para akong timang. Also, prayers helped a lot 😊
God has greater plans for you my dear. It could be a protection, be grateful and Thank the Lord for His will is perfect.
Pag madami pong questions.. Most of the time, denied. I got approved with 3-5 questions lang ata. Interview was three mins tops.
Always pray before the interview, smile, answer with confidence then if next time matanong about relatives,clarify nyopo ung mga yes and changed to no answers and say sorry then explain that u really have relatives but no communications,
Honesty has but one meaning. You cannot be “partially honest”. There is no “as much as possible” when we talk about honesty. You got denied simply because you were dishonest about some details and because you prioritized convenience over 100% transparency.
And even in processing answers, do it on your own. Don’t look for validation on anyone else. God bless in your next application. Hope you learned a lot here!
I agree!
Very well said.
True!
consistency is the key
Very important tip in US interview is to be natural & spontaneous. Just like any human being consuls are
intimidated by "aires". Ayaw nila ng mayabang
ang dating. It's not really
about how much you can afford or how rich you are.
Your information in the application is enough for the consul to be convinced. Wala na sila iba basehan, but on what your inputs are on the application. All the consul want now, is how you conduct the interview. Binabasa na body language mo when you walk into the counter. Be concise in your answers at hwag mahaba ang sagot. The most the consul will ask is 3 questions & they will decide kung approve ka. Kung sumobra sa 3 tanong, that will mean denial already.
Avoid memorizing your answers because the interviewer knows if it comes from your heart or you just memorized it.
aside from D Santos tips theres a church near
ths us embassy just drop there while waiting for your time thats what i did and ask his guidance to give me a kind consulate who do not ask to much questions and help me a good answer . and its granted. I am so thankful they gave my family a multiple visa.
First experience ko sa interview for US Visa. Umamin ako sa interviewer na kinakabahan ako, tapos nag request ako ng interpreter sabi ko kase “I’m not confident with my English skills”. So, nag bigay sila American din sya pero marunong syang mag tagalog. So, ayun lahat ng tanong nya sinagot ko ng tagalog. Tapos nakapasa ako at the end. Ngayon 3 years na ako dito sa US😄
Mandy Alcaraz so nag tnt ka kuya dito sa USA
@@jasminegumarang724 nope I'm not a TNT. 5 YEARS ANG VISA KO
@@H3XANB3AST There's no way you're allowed to stay in the US for 5 years as a tourist. The most they give is 6 months upon entry on US soil. You probably mean your toursit visa is valid for 5 years either single or multiple entry. What in the world have you been doing in the US for 3 years as a tourist? What kind of resources do you have to support your life in America? In all probability, you're working illegally and you're one of the reasons the US is very strict in dispensing tourist visas to Filipinos. People like you give Filipinos a bad name. Better go back home to the Philippines ASAP. I have alerted ICE on you, Mandy Alcaraz. All information gathered from your FB account. Expect Homeland Security staff to pick you up for deportation any time now.
Need ba tlga English pagkukuha ng kaht anong visa
Based din s experience ko during interview sbi ko d ako marunong mgtagalog at mg english tinanong ako ng American consul kung anu lenggawahe alam kosbi ko my own dialect panggalatok tas nagpanggalatok sya antoy laen mod America kwanto 😂
You’ve got to have a good job that will make you go back home. It will be shown by your income tax return. Strong ties to the Philippines means meron kang gustong gustong balikan Sa Pinas na pipigil sa yo mag overstay sa US. Example, you have children or husband that you will leave behind, because for sure babalikan mo ang family member. Another example is that you have a good, high paying job that you will hate to lose if you overstay. Also you have to say you’re staying in a hotel. It shows that wala kayong mapagtataguan.
Your job is online. It means you don’t need to come back to the Philippines. It’s a portable business and you can take it anywhere.
Not really my parents and sibling gonna stay on our home here in California. They’re all got multiple visa
I have a cousin na online freelancer, hindi nag-babayad ng tax.. No ITR.. pero nkakakuha pa rin ng multiple entry US visa..
Second interview po multiple visa...lalo n reason nyo ikakasal kayo next year...yan po ay the best reason to go back in the phils or the best strong ties
Don’t use words like goals, dreams. This advise came from a friend who works as a consul. Btw I have 10 yrs tourist visa in the US visa
matcradle even americans nagkakamali pa din sa grammar 😊 it’s not about grammar, it’s how you answer their questions ☺️
@@matcradle i dont see the connection... they have interpreters should you need one. My friend's dad is bisaya and he requested for one, ayun nagbisaya silang dalawa sa interview lol...anything to make you feel comfortable
I'm planning to apply US VISA guys help naman. I have my boyfriend there he's Filipino din and i want to surprise him pag punta ko doon and ano dapat sabihin sa US embassy
@@shimiebrunio1014 US embassy is more doubtful with single women because the trend is they marry a US citizen when they get there. Not to discourage you but I know a lot who got denied. The moment you tell them you have a boyfriend there, Pinoy man o puti, it's a red flag. You can go ahead and try, but establish a different reason, not to visit or surprise your boyfriend.
@@Ibyang531 what should i tell then? I want vacation also i have my business right here in ph so i need to go back here
I have a friend who got denied because she answered that she is a registered nurse. Nurses easily gets a job in US and you are bringing your whole family may imply that you have no reason to come back to the Philippines. Also you being a blogger means you can work anywhere convinces the consul that you may not comeback.
"
Bilang dito ako naka-base sa US I think your HUGE mistake is yung pagsabi mo na that you will be staying at your friend's vacation home. Let me tell you why. Every countries wants to be a tourist destination. The more tourist they have the more money they generate. Ano ano bang mga means to skim out money from the Tourists? Hotels, restaurants, amusement parks, transport services, and souvenirs. You already eliminated the major one which is the Hotel, kaya nagduda sa yo if you can really afford travelling. The interviewer must have thought na ang friend mo ang gagastos sa yo and that idea made them decide to disapprove your visa, that's aside from your response when asked about your income. Also, kung hesitant kang sagutin ang tanong na about income dahil maraming nakakarinig, you should have asked the interviewer if it's ok kung ipapakita mo na lang ang documents kasi diba dala mo naman. Mas advantage yon sa yo kesa nagpakita ka ng facial look that made them doubtful of you. Anyway, good luck for next time!
but i answered that I’ll be staying in my aunts house.. i got approved 😊
I partly disagree with this… Back in 2016 my entire family got approved for a visa. I remember during my interview, the immigration officer asked me what is the reason for my visit in US. I simply answered to see my grandparents and stay in their home for a week.
Overthinking yan or dahil mas mina-mind mo ang paligid mo kesa sa kung sinong nasa harap mo. Sa unang part palang nung nalaman mo na, "Ahh dito lang pala sa window yung interview, akala ko sa private room" yun palang cross na agad sa expectation mo na nag-lead sa pagiging taranta mo.
Sabi niya nanood daw siya ng vlog ni Raiza Contawi about sa US visa, pero mukhang echos lang ni Anne Clutz. Kasi ilang beses sinabi ni Rai, na sa window lang iinterviewhin.
In my opinion as someone who’s been granted a US visa (10 years multiple entry) Kailangan kasi you present proof that you will come back because you have a legitimate job that requires your physical presence in the Philippines, or you have real properties in the Philippines that you are taking care of. As a TH-camr, you can work anywhere in the world, you have no professional ties to the Philippines.
Next time you apply, just say you are a big TH-camr and you want to start vlogging about other countries. It will show them na aalis ka din ng US eventually and will also remind them that hindi Lang sila ang bansang puwede mong ivlog.
i agreed with your comment. Physical employment from a reputable company is a must. Being Self employed is not a guaranty according to immigration attorney that you will come back to the phils specially she is a nurse.
You show an income that is above middle class in the us. So you should look at their chart depending on number how many members in your house hold...for sure you will have a travel insurance but they are looking at in case you got sick and hospitalized you can afford to pay out of your pocket.
Agree! Already a US citizen
@@schnitzlercrew I disagree. Money is only secondary, but the primary proof should be strong ties to the Philippines. People can loan money and dump it into the bank accounts just to "use as evidence" that they have money.
Hello, ask ko lang po, how about if youre just an employee (Call center agent), pero may mag sponsor and iinvite ka to visit them, mas malaki po ba ang chance na maapprove?
lesson learned dont be OVER confident!!! be spontaneous wag ka mgmemorize kc iba iba tlga questions nila, and maging honest tlga lalo na sa california mahigpit..
In my experience the consul never check documents. Just be honest & simple as possible. Avoid being "maarte". Consuls have good backgrounds in human psychology so they know if a person is phony or real. They are just ordinary people like us who make their decisions based on how they feel towards the interviewee.
Tama yan din yung sabi ng asawa ko..mga consol daw prang detective yan binabasa yung body language mu at sina psycho yung iniinterview ka nila
1⁰
mommy anne, kung ano po yung nasa application nyo ayun din po dapat yung sagot mo, straight to the point, honesty and eye to eye contact, no doubt, dapat. mahigpit ang US pero prayer lang mama anne, ma aaproved din po kayo.
No worries 😉 There’s always next time...No Rush 🥂
Wag mashado over confident.. relax lang.. mas ok kung sa hotel magstay kesa sa bahay ng family friend, or relatives.. kse may capacity ka naman to pay for hotel accomodation.. wag mashado maraming sinasabe.. or mashadong maraming explanation.. straight forward answers dapat.. also, ung length of stay kailangan exact..pate ung list of places na gusto puntahan na pasok for the length of stay.. and yes dapat consistent ang nasa application form sa mga actual na sagot..
I got 10yrs visa and less than 3 mins lang interview ko.. questions lang to me were, where do i work, how much do i earn (walang elaboration), where will i stay (nabingi pako nung tinanong ako, inulet pa ng consul) and if i already have children.. (mejo natawa pa ko nung sumagot ako kse wala pa at that time) yan lang.. then approved na..
Usually kse na review na nila ang application mo kaya nga scheduled ung interview.. nasa database na nila lahat yan..
Travel muna kayo sa other visa countries mama ann.. it helps.. like japan, europe.. 😊
Matet S agree. before pa dumating sa embassy nareview na nila un application mo. pag mdmi sinsbi minsan cause din yun ng pagkadeny bec inconsistent na mga sgot..
I agree wag dapat over confident
Hi !!! I don't know how I came across your vlog, but I want to share my opinion oh why you may have been denied the tourist visa. I am also a Filipino, a registered nurse as well, and have been here in the US for 25 yrs. Just listening to the flow of conversation and the questions he/she was asking, I just want to share my opinion on the denial.
So, the MOST IMPORTANT thing you really have to PROVE to them is YOU HAVE EVERY REASON TO "COME BACK HOME" and CANNOT LEAVE ANY OPEN ENDED ANSWERS why you could change your mind and decide to stay while you're here.
1. Business - is your business mostly managed online? Do you have a physical location to run your business at all? If it's all online based, there's no reason why you can't run your online business here as well. Provide evidence why your physical presence there is necessary for your business.
2. You're a nurse also. There's every reason why you may decide to stay here and not have any trouble finding a job as a nurse here. Not all hospitals, etc require the 3 yr experience to be able to work here. The nursing shortage here is so bad that they will hire anyone with no prior experience there and just train them after. Are you still licensed as a RN? If you can convince them that's not something you still want to do eventually, it shouldn't raise a red flag to them.
3. Income - you mentioned he/she acted surprised with your business income. If you make quite a bit with your business, then you can well afford to resettle and continue your online business here. I know that you're not going to be a financial burden to the US government for any kind of aid, but they have can say you're not being honest with your application as a tourist but have every means to migrate.
4. Who's coming to the US? If EVERYONE is coming, then there's no reason why you need to go back. Is your Dad not coming? I know your mom was with you for the interview.
5. And how long do you plan to stay? 2 weeks. Perhaps it sounded like you just wanted your foot in the door. I'm sure it did not come across very realistic to them. There's so much to see here 1 month is not enough. Plan for a 4-6 weeks stay. Land in New York and drive down to Florida. You have to see New York City, Washington, DC then Orlando and last stop in Miami. And lots of place to see besides those major destinations along the way.....Atlantic City, Myrtle Beach, Virginia Beach, Atlanta, Georgia, Savannah, Georgia, Charleston, South Carolina, etc. I went home last July and 3 weeks felt like it went by quickly.
And you're right about them checking your social media accounts. I know there are companies here who checks potential candidates' social media and base it from there if you're hired or not. I don't know if I am helpful in any way, but I wish you guys the best of luck in your next application.
Also, tell your kids, FORGET Disneyland. You need to go to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. The Disney Park is way, way, way bigger. AND.... there's EPCOT Center with the Showcase of the World. AND Universal Studios.... with the new Harry Potter world. I haven't been yet. None of those in California.
I am based in the East Coast and Orlando is just 9 hours drive from me. Good luck. It's not about how much you make and all. YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOU HAVE EVERY REASON TO GO BACK HOME.
I appreciate this insight and it's very helpful. Thanks!
OMG. I just got a notification. This was 3 yrs ago?!? I hope you finally made it here in the US. Let us know!!
@@gtc471no they didn’t lol. this was the first and last time they ever mentioned going to the US. probably because allot happened when covid happened, and re-applying is too much time.
Prior to coming for your interview, you're being checked (yung background mo, family, pati relatives abroad, and businesses and stuff) so may verdict na yan sila sayo. Cross-check na lang kung consistent. Sa online application palang po alam na nila. If you state the length of your stay po, tell them after na kailangan kayo bumalik sa Pilipinas kasi may business, etc. Kumbaga, walang reason for you to stay longer kasi andito yung buhay mo sa Pilipinas. Bihira sila kumuha ng documents talaga. As in pure interview sila kasi na-background check ka na nila bago ka pa dumating. Better luck next time po, and just be honest, real and straight to the point.
One factor is because yoy are a nurse, sana cnabi mo dont need to work abroad because your earnings here in Phil as a vlogger is more than enough.
estela utitco I’m pretty sure she stated that as her source of income.
She was just asked abouther previous job.
estela utitco try and try po
Sa US po kasi lahat ng pinoy nurses pumapasok sa home for the aged na natrigger siguro sa sagot ni mama anne don sa tanong na y not work abroad is ndi better i think its a test sa knia kung may balak ba siang magwork sa US, iba po kasi talaga thinking ng consul sa mga nurses
"Previous job"
you should answer straight forward and without hesitation
Dear God bless you. He has plans apparently outside of your desires. It is deep yet simple. God is always in control.
My question was „why are you applying for US Visit visa? i just answered it very simple... i wanna have selfie photo with Ms. Liberty and i will post it in my FB... the consul laughed and she gave me Multiple visa!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Its me PEDRO PAN actually, formality yon personal interview ng consul. Weeks before that, na VEROFY NA NG EMBASSY ang background at financial capabilities ng applicant kaya 1 or 2 minutes lng yon interview. Either, denied or aprub
hahaha know what you made my day 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Dis so funny🤣🤣🤣🤣
Omg ang daming questions sa inyo😂kme 2 questions lang pasok na! Better luck nxt time😍
Just be casual, consider the interview as any day to day conversation. That's what I did more than 4 decades ago when applying for my working visa (H1). Good luck next time.
2014 i applied mine , i remember fresh graduate ako , never been in any country , sobrang lutong pa ng passport ko nun, wala pang 10minutes ang interview ko about langit ang kaba ko nun nung nag apply ko, pero ayun na approve naman sya ,
Its okay mama anne...☺️
"Everything is subject to God’s timing and everything depends on it" 🙏
I lived and worked in the US for 40 years. I decided to retire here in the Philippines, moved back here in January. The US is not as good as it was years ago. I feel bad that you get rejected but really, you did not lose anything. Try going to Europe, if you haven’t been there yet. Again, i am pissed that the consul rejected tourists who will spend money in the US. Anyway, sleep tight and don’t feel bad!
"I FEEL DEMORALIZED" Tama ka because yan din ang naramdaman ko/namin after we were denied.
I have experienced the feelings of getting approved (1st application) and denied (2nd application). Syempre, happy noong na-approved, not just because of the certainty of going to the US, but also because hindi nasayang yung perang binayad for the interview. Nakaka-demoralize at nakakalungkot pag na-deny, hindi lang dahil nasayang ang binayad, pero dahil the consul made me feel not good enough to go to the US again despite not violating my previous visa.
As you said, di nmn ganun ka importante why you applied and want to go to the US. Maybe, this is a sign na you must prioritize things first, be contented on what you have and you have already went.
You need to be honest whether its your 1st application or 10th try.Always remember they keep all the records from the beginning. They can track all the relatives you have if you put then on the application. Second, just answer straight & right to the point.The more maboka at paikot-ikot ka the more ma-deny ka.Third, about sa relatives stay the more they prefer if you're gonna be staying in a hotel/ vacation package itinerary not airbnb.Coz that gives them assurance that you wont be over staying in the US. Plus about sa business/job they prefer an answer that your business is worth enough for you to go back to the Phils. You need to tell them if they ask you how much you're making.They dont care if other applicants cant hear it. Remember, it's not there business( other applicants).The conversation is between you & the consul.
The main point, the are preventing TNT.
Lastly some consul can detect if you're lying, nervous or hiding something.
Some consul get irritated if someone else is answering for you.Meaning king ikaw ang tinatanong, nobody else can answer.
This are just some points that our lawyer taught me 10years ago when I as applied for visa.
Being someone who lives in the US, even when applying for adjustment of status here. The most important thing to do is to show and prove that you will not overstay in the US and that you have more than enough reasons that you will be coming back to your country.
And always answer with confidence, next time have a smile makes everything around easy ! Meron naman kayong document to support so good luck
Maam.balak q oa nma mag bakasyonnsa US na mag apply aw ng tourush visa mat fren aq dun na invite aq nya na mabakasyon gajun pala.Maam baka ma reject din aw pag na enterview aq
asking your salary is a valid question, they need to know how you can afford to travel with your entire family.
This is very informative for me, me and husband is applying for a US Visa the next months, I’m a stay at home mom but we’re just going there to attend a graduation, by Gods Grace will be approved😍
Jacqui Goodflower > that is a valid reason. Just be sure, you add “ we won’t be staying long after that because we have things and other responsibilities to take care of back home.”
while there you want to shop at factory outlets or take a 3 day cruise or see vegas or san francisco, appear confident and rich but relaxed
God can and GOD'S WILL. Not "I can, and I will" po ☺️🙏🏻
i want to share some thoughts about this vlog: 1. lahat ng B1-B2 visa applicants are seen as potential na mag TTNT....kaya the BURDEN of PROOF na babalik ka lies on the applicant. 3 things you need to establish when you apply for a US visa. number 1: STRONG TIES here in the philippines: family, business, properties, career, education. number 2 financial capacity to travel number 3 valid reason to travel. ..yes, tama ka dun sa mga points mo kung bakit sa tingin mo na denied kayo. regarding dun sa hesitation mo to disclose your average monthly income, alam mo walang pakialam ung ibang applicants doon kung ano sabihin mo. it is not even, mag titimbre sila na abangan ka ng kasabwat nila sa labas para kidnapin kasi marami kang pera. during an interview, do not mind other people. concentrate on your conversation with the consul. they read body language too. you should have stood up straight with hands on your side and controlled your nervousness. and yes tama ka, whatever you replied on the application form, dapat un din ang isasagot mo during the actual interview. kasi bago ka pa humarap sa kanya, nabasa na nya ang application form mo. asking you the same question is simply testing if you are replying the same answer. lastly, did you pray to God for this interview? ultimately it is God who answers prayer.
When you apply next time, don’t say you’re staying with family or friends. Also, I suggest don’t bring your mom too. Go with your family lang muna. There’s a chance they will think your mom will overstay there because she’s already retired and you have family and friends in the US. They will think she has no ties to go back to the Philippines. Opinion ko lang.
Try getting a Schengen visa muna before re applying again, you have higher chances of getting US visa if naka travel na kayo sa Europe.
Is that so? Thank you sa tip . Ask ko lang madali lang ba pag Europe? Kasi sa dami ko nababasa na blog may mga blogger na grant ng US visa pag nakailang balik na sila sa europe. Ano pong meron ?
Nope i disagree my mom applied for tourist visa and was granted 10 years multiple entry she has no job but have properties to show and bank statements. Her mom being senior citizen has more chance getting the visa..
Sooo true
Mahirap din po ang schengen visa kami po nagapply ng 2x pero denied po kami we have stable businesses here & nagsend ng guarantee letter yung agency na inavaillan namin ng package tour, nagsubmit din kami ng cover letter explaining the our purpose, , complete docs po kami w/ supporting docs din, but twice kami na denied with the same reason ng france embassy point #8 justification of purpose & conditions of the intended stay was not reliable though meron kaming day to day itinerary provided by the agency kung san kami nag avail ng tour package & yun nga we submitted cover letter. I think depende po talaga sa consul kase yung ibang mga na approved na kasama namin sa tour single w/o business or employed but na approved naman po sila. But i believe po talaga na baka nd pa will ni God baka nd papo time or may reason sa rejection. Inisip nalang po namin na gusto lang ni God yung best for us.
Ayessa Millsap You are a resident if not a citizen in the US so obvious na ma grant ng visa mom mo. Your mom’s case is different from them. Sa case nila sumabit lang ang nanay nya sa application nila. Galing pa ng Qatar nanay nya and stayed there for years.
Just a thought po...I don’t think that being a nurse is a hindrance of taking the visit visa,I’m a nurse po and I was granted 10 years visa.My interview lasted for 2-3 mins. only.
kharen papa sana oil po 😅
madam/sir would you please to share the questions po na tinanong sayo
hello ms. anne, share ko rin experience ko, and true enough tama po yung sinabi nyo na BE Honest, sa aking part dinala ko rin lahat ng necessary papers pero hindi rin nila kinuha, we have almost the same set questions, eye contact is important, then napapanuod ko rin sa ibang vlog pag nurse ka it’ll be hard to get the visa kasi may tendency na ma denied, but clearly hindi dahil nurse or kung ano man ang profession, it is the way you answer the questions, if hindi ka sure its okay to say na u don’t know rather than making a pre-prepared answers. example nung nag ask ang consul na anong kind ng visa ng relatives ko nung pumunta na US, honestly i don’t know if working, tourist or immigrant so i said “i don’t know”. kala ko hindi ako makakakuha ng visa, ending sinabi ng consul in 3 days you will get your passport sa Empost, kala ko confiscated hehe ibig sabihin pala na-approved ako, so now i got 10yrs multiple visa... 👍🏻 so for those who are applying tama po si Ms. Anne be honest lang po sa pag sagot, mga consul na nag tataning magaling sila magbasa ng body language kaya be relax. good luck sa future applications!
Got denied 5 times sa tourist visa, my reason why I applied was to take my pharmacy exam, applied for J1 visa the last time( studied culinary arts for a year) I got approved the sixth time. Today, I am now a pharmacist intern and I am now a green card holder. There's always time for everything.
Fatima Mae Nelson naku swerties mo
They're standard questions like when crossing borders. They're trained or meant to intimidate. Honest and short answers. They need to make sure you have definite arrival and departure dates, where are you staying and what kind of work you do (to know if you have enough financially for that travel). They want to make sure you're going back home. Believe it or not, they're watching the applicants as soon as you walk in.
No worry Ann time will come. Makakapag travel kayong family sa US. Ngayon alam mo na for the interview. Kung anong nakalagay sa application mo yun ang question nila. Because it happens to me na ma interview rin ng consul. Make sure you pray before you go. I went to Antipolo Church with my family before the interview. My prayers is answered. So dont loose hope. And I'll pray na makapasa na kayo for the next interview. God blessed your family 🙏🙏🙏
Is it ok to disclose those question in this video? Baka eventually they will conduct a background check in the future and ma found out nila about it...
Same question.
Truth! Iniisip ko din yan lahat sinabi na diba
yes... yan una kong naisip.. :(
Dennis Yao good point
Yes! Background check is serious! It has to be taken into consideration. Applying for a fed job in americ alone takes a long time to process and that's if you got hired and have an intense background check after background check. I'm just and just curious if they have seen and checked your other vlog about your application...
I’m a US citizen here sa states, my mom got denied when we applied for her tourist visa last yr. This country is very strict, di basta basta magpapasok na kahit sino.
Ano mga tinanong sa kanya po? My mom's interview coming up in a motnh
First of all when applying US visa dapat yung mga sagot mo ayh honesty at heartily lang talaga. Yun ang gusto nilang marinig sa mga taong nag aapply ng US visa. Kac no matter how prepared or na memorized yung isasagot mo pagdating mo sa actual mawawala ka talaga sa isasagot mo kac scripted kung baga yung ginagawa mo. Pero kapag totally honest at heartily yung sagot mo kahit ilang batong questions pa yan ang ibibigay zau masasagot at masasagot mo yan kac d scripted yung mga moves and answers mo. Yan lang talaga guyz. D pa naman ako nakapag apply ng US Visa pero sister ko yan mismo ginagawa nya yung mag act normal, honest at nasa puso talaga ang sagot. Kac mga consul ay grabe yan cla magbasa ng tao. At saka yung DS mo at ang isasagot mo dapat nagkaka coincide yan pinaka importante sa lahat. Bibigyan ka agad ng blue paper kapag denied agad. Kac kapag tingin nla sa system nla na finill upon mo para sa appointment mo at iba rin ang isasagot bagsak talaga nyan cgurado.
You can't have it all at the same time- you are well blessed already--- just try again next time- 💞
dont reapply right away, wait at least 6 months or a year
Yes, 6 months the minimum.
Anytime pwede mag re apply pg us visa. Mabigat lang kasi 160$
Nung nag apply ako noong November 2019, yan din naririnig ko sa mga kasabay ko na-interview. Tinatanong ng consul if anything has changed dun sa status from the last time you applied. Tapos denied in seconds lang. Wala ng ibang tanong. Not sure lang kung ganun din sa family application.
I got rejected but i reapply again after a week and then got approved...😀
LOL! NOT TRUE!! I reapply the week after ako na deny, then I got it na! DEPENDE YAN SA Consul 😀
Napansin ko din yan while im having my interview for petition. Sabi ko bakit ang bilis sa kabila yun pala halos mga deny na agad mga nakapila. Just be true and natural sa interview. May right timing talaga kung approved or hindi 😌
One rule of thumb...never never show the consul that you're intimidated by him. Be smart & sound very sure of yourself. They can read your body language & they size you up by the way you answer.
I was granted a ten-year visa almost three years ago, I was unemployed that time. I was accompanied by my dad (who currently holds a us visa) and sisters. The American at the counter asked the same questions. We also practiced our answers. I remembered we showed no anxiousness but excitement. I was asked what was my present occupation, instead of saying none, i said i just graduated last tuesday and if i will come back to the philippines. I also said yes at that time because i needed to take my licensure exams on september. We enumerated the countries we've been to and kung saan kami matutulog. We said we were to stay at a relative's house and my parents were to fund my expenses since I was unemployed. When the lady asked my dad what was our purpose for visiting, he simply said "Disneyland". I think she was mildly entertained, then told us that we get our 10 year visa. No formal attire here, just pants, sandals and blouse; the important key is not to say a lot of things, just a word or phrase. Makukuha mo din yan, mama anne, dont worry.
luise delarea now a days the disneyland answer is not a solid answer anymore. Because jf i am the consul i will tell the applicants why not hongkong disneyland where you don’t need a visa no more and is near and cheaper....i will honestrly says ,i will explore the USA ..visit some of the tourist spots, other cities and enjoy my vacation...by the way, ii am an american citizen 😊.
@@tanyasembrano5645 kaso im not like you who's an american. Hongkong disneyland is way different than disneyland. i got my visa years ago.
these are my simple tips.
learning experience po yan mam hehe...
mainly po kasi they will refer sa personality and gesture mo. documents is just to justify lang sa sinasabi mo
don't use any relative or friends better to book a hotel or airbnb.
be truthful just don't care about other applicants.
isang tip n narinig ko (but I dont know if applicable din sa pilipinas) is to travel in any european country like UK. this is what we did actually before applying US visa dito sa Dubai just to prove na you can travel and come back to philippines. Siempre po iba kasi pag sinabing nagtravel k ng Europe hehe.
it might be a different process here pero mostly po eto ung prinovide namin and thankfully wala masyado tanong samin.. ung mga general question like anong gagawin sa US, sang particular part ng US. we have the same answer na gusto namin makapunta ng disneyland but we also said that we love to travel and recently nga nagtravel kami ng UK and Edinbrugh etc.... and ung salary din nmin tinanong and we just answer it directly. We dont mind the other applicant kasi kahit marinig nila un di nmn papasok sa utak nila kasi kahit sila kabado narin hahahaha
lastly po is just relax. dont think it as an interview it just a conversation. :)
Goodluck po sa next application nio.
before u go there na background check k n,,, physical appearance whether they gonna change their mind or not,,,no secret formula at all honesty lang
Okay lang yan mama anne. Blessed are those who wait. And everything happens for a reason. Love ka namin😍😍
💗💗💗💗
Hi Ms. Anne, don't lose hope.. Being RN is not always the reason why people get denied...
Simple lang ang problema sa interview mo: You showed inconsistency, doubt and lack of firm assurance with your answers. Remember, consul KNOWS that everyone who wants to visit US has STRONG INTENT TO MIGRATE. Your job was to prove that you HAVE STRONG TIES returning to PH. If you CAN'T convince them with your answers then you will be denied.
What is Section 214(b)?
The Immigration and Naturalization Act (INA) states under Section 214b that:
Every alien shall be presumed to be an immigrant until he establishes to the satisfaction of the consular officer, at the time of application for admission, that he is entitled to a nonimmigrant status...
What it means is that a consular officer must view every nonimmigrant visa applicant as an intending immigrant who is planning to visit and then permanently stay in the U.S. The applicant, therefore, must prove to the officer that s/he is going to return home after the temporary visit. If the consular officer is not satisfied, he is required to deny the nonimmigrant visa application.
On point. 👍It is not only about the presentation and memorized answers. One has to prove a strong reason to return back to the PH.
yes and it's not the amount of your money in the bank and your properties that will assure you to have a US visa, it should be your honesty and consistency... Answer the questions briefly....
Based sa mga answers mo.... madedeny talaga...
*you staying with relatives
*poor reason for vacation - kasi marami namn na disneyland sa asia
*uncertain of your business ( number of personnel, income, clear delegation of works)
*your reasoning why not work as a nurse abroad... “unfortunately “ means you still hope to practice as nurse but situations didnt allow you... redflag yun.
*denying any relatives...
goodluck next time... and dont be too confident/ expect too much..
nur philippines shrue
I defo AGREE!!
Agree!! Ma deny talaga sila
Correct sa poor reason for vacation, at saka yun reason why not work as a nurse abroad...hindi nya sana sinabi na nahihirapan siya maghanap ng work as a nurse. At saka correct rin sa paggamit ng “unfortunately”. Regarding sa relatives, they asked you kung meron ka pictures of yout relatives sa US at saka kung ano ang complete address nila and telephone no.
They should have answered disneyworld. Kc may mga disneyland naman sa japan at hongkong etc.
Same profession po tayo. Kitang kita po sa boses and body movements mo na you are so nervous even nagkwekwento ka nalang how much more po kaya doon sa mismo interview, pareho tayo bigla kinakabahan kapag mga interview.😥❤
I’m sorry to hear about your experience. With the help of a good (Filipino) friend, I understood most of what you were saying. A couple of tips: Even if it’s true, don’t tell the interviewer that you “really want to see Disneyland”. That’s pretty lame. There are several Disneylands around the world, including a few in Southeast Asia. In their minds, they will think - why not just visit the Disneyland that’s closer to Manila. It’s better to tell them something unique like wanting to experience and visit the many places in America that you have heard so much about - including Disney World.
And if you plan on staying in hotels, it’s better to state that instead of “staying with relatives or friends”. But only if it’s true! They have been known to ask for proof of your hotel reservations. And if you know you’re nervous and are afraid the interviewer will notice, just smile and try not to act like you’re trying too hard. They know people get nervous but they don’t want to see someone who is completely rattled and incoherent. Practice being calm. And it’s okay to make eye contact. Just don’t stare! And be completely honest about everything. And remember, they want to be convinced that you are returning home!
For Europe po ata un family nyo Ms. Anne. Try and try lang po.
Dennis Carmelo nabanggit nya po ba sa vlog nato na mag europe sila? Hehehe curious lng po hahahaha
@@yukoyams nope US only
@@yukoyams i think what he wants to say na pang europe tour sila.
Hehehe my chance
Ahhh okay po thank you! Hehehehehe God bless po
My take on this.
*1. Since you earn well, might have been better to mention that you will be staying in an airbnb or hotel. This will show the consul of your financial capacity to travel and will match the income you have indicated. Kasi parang sasabihin nya they earn well but cannot afford to stay in a hotel.
*2. When asked about your income. Always say at the end, I have documents here with me to prove our income. *you are giving her the idea that you earn that well, you can prove it and pwede nya hingin.
*3. When asked about how long will you be staying in the US. You should have mentioned 2 weeks only because we cannot take leave for so long because of our business. This will give the consul the thought that you will really comeback as your business depends on you = ties and rootedness
*4. When asked about your previous job as a nurse. Never mentioned na you haven't really practiced it. Just say something more on your business or being a vlogger. Something like: I am a registered Nurse but over the years my blog/YT channel has helped my family so much that I was able to buy or build our own house, saved money, travel abroad and established our own business. I would love to practice being a nurse but blogging has given me financial freedom and more time with my family that's why I have chosen not to practice it and we're happy to help and employ 16 employees. *you are stressing na malaki earnings nyo with blogging and you cant leave your family thats why abroad is never an option = ties and rootedness
*5. When asked about your travels. Stress the countries that you have travelled with the family to highlight your capacity to finance the trip. Regarding Maldives, it was a chance to say about your financial capacity. Mention about Maldives in your travel list just like the US or about the birthday gift. Baka the consul also thought "beach" in Maldives and "disneyland" in California don't really blend well. Why Maldives? It was a bday gift and also one of our bucketlist. A lot of filipinos would love to visit but only few can afford that is why we want to visit it and experience some luxury for the Family. Iisipin nya may pera nga sila.
*6. Consul usually asked 2 things about family. 1st about immediate family meaning children, husband, siblings or parents. If none, say no. 2nd about relatives. This is very tricky. Consul usually think that each Filipino has a relative abroad. You can say yes. But if they asked more questions like name or place or work. Honestly say anything you know. Like, I know she/he lives in blah2x but dont know more information. And we do not have plans to visit him/her as our time is very limited for this travel. *you are stressing that the purpose is not to visit your relatives.
*7. Follow-up nya why not work abroad? Say like: Even as a nurse I dont really have plans to work abroad because of my family and eventually I earned even more than people working abroad. *stressing again na you earn well and that you dont want to leave your family = ties and rootedness
Totally agree on this
Aww ok lang yan Ms. Anne. Try lang ulit. Nakakalungkot lang kasi effort talaga mag apply ng US Visa. Pero thanks for sharing your experience with your Visa application. ❤️❤️❤️
Maria and Car hug to hug
It’s not God’s time yet. There is a perfect time for everything ♥️
The way you rely the message now talagang Hindi ka mabibigyan
When we apply for our visa, Disneyland lang po sinabi namin and we were approved naman as in un lang sinabi namin na reason bakit kami ppnta ng US. Possible naman mapprove if ganun ang mggng reason mo, pero kailangan din hindi ka kabahan, just be natural lang kasi nkkita nila yun on how you answer questions. Sabi nila dapat "Isang tanong isang sagot lang" di mo na kailangan elaborate pa. Praying for your next application sana maapprove! God bless!
Number one tip: Don't talk too much like you're doing in your blogs.
correct =)
I was given US visa with multiple entries last November 2019 and i'm here in California right now for 3 months as tourist. First mistake mo is kailangan definite k sa number of days ng bakasyon mo say 15 days. 2nd mistake mo where will you stay sana sinabi mo yong complete address house # and street. Kc gusto ng consul alam n alam mo yong pupuntahan mo. Good luck next time. Mas maganda mag suot k ng nka blazer at wag mo ilagay sa dashboard yong kmay mo at diretso lng tayo mo wag galaw ng galaw tingin k lng sa consul with smile.
Main reason of rejection: Filipinos who do TNT in the US who gave the bad impression.
tama po kayo, siempre nawalan na ng tiwala yung mga nag iinterview dahil sa kagagawan ng mga nag tnt noon.
TRUE.
True ☹️
Tama tas wala na silang tiwala sa iba nadamay na . Kaya pahirapan na talaga.
it’s ok for them to hear your answer. infact, most of the people in the US embassy is also busy thinking how will they answer the possible question/s. also, it is a plus if someone here in the US will invite you and ask them to make a letter stating that they invited you to their house while you guys staying in the US.
Mimie R it’s not a guarantee even if you have an invitation letter.
Pinaka importante talaga be truthful. Dahil kung meron kang tinatago mahahalata din yun for being inconsistent with your answers. Lahat ng nilagay mo sa ds 160 dapat tugma sa answers mo sa interview.
Point ko lng to: dapat be honest: kc before the interview na spy na lahat background at knowing na ang mga consul ay psychologist mga yan: pag sumagot be confident lalo facial expression ng applicant:
You mean Background check
Correct
2 mos is too early to re apply. You need to wait atleast 6 mos otherwise u might get disapproved again.
yes. it happened to my best friend. he was informed by the consul, "do you have a major change in circumstance for us to change our decision?" then denied outright. once you get 2 denials, lalo na mas mahirap.
@@theresetrinidad definitely agree. Hope mabasa ni mama @anne clutz
Proper timing and in God's will and time 🙏
I was about to say, too! Wait at least 6mos, Anne. :)
Not always the case :) My manager applied after a week nun nadeny sha and she got the visa multiple entries pa :)
mysteeque tama, its a case by case basis tlaga
HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.
You can't have it all.
maybe you sounded too scripted with your replies that's why you were denied ... i believe it's best not to memorize your answers since the questions are all about you and your personal cirsumstances ...
Correct.
Tama po
Dapat memorize mo yung isasagot mo na nasa sinagutan mo application. Kasi pag nagkamali ka kahit isa ay madedeny ka. at sabi nila hirap talaga mag apply namg visa ngayon... may qouta sila sa isang taon ilan pwede na nila ipasok sa US. Try nila ulit.✌️
Dean Rose Red - totoo yan even qualify ka if quota na sila sorry nalang isasagot nila. As per my husband from FR.

Hello there, as a Filipino who has been living in the U.S. for the last 20 years, I just wanted to share some things that might have raised red flags on your part when interviewing for a U.S. visa. First, if the consul sees that you are a little bit jittery and nervous, this will present to the consul that you are nervous, which could translate that you might be lying. Of course if you had done your homework, you should NEVER underestimate the US Embassy for obvious reasons. They usually research the applicant first days before you actually go there for an interview. I suspect that your reported annual income, the fact that you have to do a TH-cam vlog as added income, your retired mom, the fact that you are staying with a friend during your vacation, your indecisiveness as to how long you're going for vacation, and the fact that you're an RN in the Philippines who could not practice your own profession ALL contributed to your being denied. I am glad though that you have not waivered and hopefully, try applying again. Good luck! p.s. Just my personal opinion, with you divulging all the details of your denial in a public TH-cam vlog may not help your case. Remember, big brother is ALWAYS watching.
Right, lalo na ngaun nka TH-cam sya😬
Good smart comment
I couldnt agree more. Best comment.
Nung ako 3-5minutes lang ata ako nainterview. Ok nman.
I agree. The red flag was because you are a nurse and you could work immediately in the states as caregiver (under the table) as a lot of Filipino women do.
Yeah..
By this time...they've (us consul) watched this video already. Ang have an idea for the next application interview.
Parang nag-ba base din sa nature of work kaya dito? Sa parents and sister ko mabilis din, eh. Year long business that they really need to attend to, kaya siguradong babalik sila. Nung first time, 5 years visa. Second time... they got 10 years. Our close relatives naman, they serve as sponsors while the family is vacationing. Lastly, maybe what the consul felt about the whole interview.
Ms.Anne, according to my American husband,his opinion,when you're going to apply for tourist visa for the USA,just book a hotel where you can stay like 2 to 3 days upon arriving,so when you are ask where you're going to stay,you can give the name of the hotel!Because saying that you will be staying on your friend's house,is a minus point to them bcoz it means,you have some support from them..just our opinion
I agree here Mam its best to book a Hotel the way my brother did when He applied for the visa.actually even before the Interview he already made a booking prior to the date of Interview.and My Bros reason mainly of travelling and applying for a US Visa was his love for Broadway musical in New York which is His edge for proving his reasons for travelling to NY.tho we have all our relatives living in The US.
True. It is a big minus.
2 things na sa tingin ko negative sa nag interview sayo.
1. The type of business you have. Baka naisip nung consul na yung business mo can go on maski nasa ibang bansa ka kasi its an online business. So yung ties mo sa bansa hindi ganun k strong dahil wala yung thought na may babalikan ka hanap buhay.
2. You are a Nurse.
Just keep on trying, for sure your application will get to a good consul’s hand for approval. Good luck!
Napaka informative mo mam... Im planning to apply sa 2021... Hoping po ma grant... Ok lang yon mam.. better luck next time... GODBLESS YOU INDEED 🙏🙏
Based from my experience, yes you need to be ready but not practiced answers, the US consuls know how to determine if your answers are scripted or not as well. And yes answering HONESTLY and straight to the point helps a lot. Lastly, the last question about relatives was definitely a red flag to them, since in there was a discrepancy between the 1st and 2nd visa applications.
Yes, that's the mistake you made, the first application is still in their database.so when you changed the answer to "no relatives" naging questionable..good luck sa next application!
You cannot have everything. Be thankful for the blessings you have now and pay it forward.
Try and try mama anne 😉❤️ God is neved late nor early, He is always on time. Tip ko lang po. Pray po kayo the night before and sa pag gising. It works really well 🙏🏻 I hope and pray that you would pass the interview next time. Trust the Lord always. Love you mama anne 😍
