    As always, the key is to just BE HONEST at your interview. Visa officers have access to a surprising amount of information, so it’s better to just be yourself.

      I would like to ask you one important question, how important is your contact in USA when you apply the ds-160 because my contact is my brother and I applied with his previous address? Is it important to apply new ds-160 because of this address?
      Thankyou in advance

      @brianblessing8494 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +26

      Yes the crazy thing is its easier to simply swim across the Rio Grande and enter illegally than to actually get a visa. I was denied 4 times while not having a bad history, as my original visa was cancelled without prejudice and I was denied entry into the US because i was viewed as an intending immigrant with the incorrect visa. With a 5 year bar slapped on to go with it. While having strong ties to my home country I mean seriously do they think everyone wants to immigrate to the US? There are far better places to live, and the US would not be at the top of my list, yet still I'm denied a visa for a visit. Great I'll spend all my tourist dollars elsewhere.

    I remember my visa interview which held last year in march. My sister and my brother in law sponsored our trip to USA. They both are US citizens by the way. So my sister applied for me and my father who is a retired officer from Indian railways. I remember upon my turn in the embassy there was a smiling Indian American visa officer sitting in the window waiting for us to come forward towards the window. His 1st question was how do we two me and my father know each other. He specifically quoted my sister’s name saying who is she? And what’s the purpose of your visit??
    Upon answering the question he asked me what does my sister do and where does she live in us?? After that he asked me what do I do for living ?? And promptly said your father is a retired officer my father said yes then he asked do you get your pension on time sir my father said yes 😂😂 During the entire process the visa officer was smiling looking at me and typing on his system and said congratulations your visa application is approved enjoy your vacations. The entire interview took around 3 to 4 minutes I reckon !!

    It really boils down to who makes the interview. When I went to the interview there was this official that was denying visas to EVERYONE. At the waiting room we were all nervous because everyone was praying this guy wouldn't be assigned to any of us. When it was my turn, it was such a relief it was with another official. The interview was pleasant, and I got granted the visa, but when I left and said goodbye to a friend I made in the waiting area, he said the guy was still denying visas left and right. I wished him good luck.

( mentioning this cause I closely observed four visa officers while on the queue for my own interview. )

    I witnessed something at the us embassy that truly broke my heart when I went to apply for an us visa. I was right behind an elderly couple in the queue and I could hear every answer they provided. They wanted to visit their daughter who lived in the us. They told the interviewer how long they intended to stay for, how much money they had, where they would stay, documents proving the daughter was there legally, and several other questions to only hear in the end their visa had been declined as the interviewer was not convinced they would return home. I was a bit frightened when it was my turn but eventually I was granted the visa. It turns out my 10 year visa expired without me never visiting the us as I decided to visit some other places instead. If given the chance I would have gladly swapped places with that old couple.

US deports these people to Mexico in spite of them NOT being Mexicans. Expecting Mexico with one third of the US Economy to finance it all. International Law dictates any person from any country can present at the border of any country and request asylum. The UIS thinks it is above International Law. No it is Not!. In fact right in the US Constitution it states the top laws are the Laws of Nations, Not the Supreme Court.
      Yes, Coyotes charge $$25,000 on entry to the US. These people bring drugs, prostitution and are sold into Slavery in the US to pay. Thousands of Immigrant Children are slave labor in meat packing and fast food industry as well as farms in the US, mostly owned by Americans.
      Until1960 the Bracero Program worked very well. People from Mexico, Caribbean and Central America came to work 6 months and returned home. Don't forget that President HW Bush, George W Bush, Obama, Clinton and Trump all had Illegal Immigrants employed by them.
      Easy to blame others bur it is the US responsible for it all. Reagan even allied with President Noriega of Panama to import drugs to finance his Central American Wars when Congress refused to finance it.
      Venezuela was the wealthiest country in South America until the US stopped them from selling oil. In fact Chavez used to give free heating oil to homes on the US East Coast. Political sanctions made them poor. And now the only ones they hate even more than Venezuelan leaders is American leaders.
      It is countries and media neither aligned or opposed to the US that is a real source of news. Neutrality gives truth.

    It is a clearing and forwarding business, and after a two-minute interview, they hand you the pink paper without explaining why they've denied the visa. Seriously, why deny someone a transit visa or crew? While everything is clear, can they contact the US company to verify? Is that not corruption? They should refund the visa cost. It is imperative that there be a demonstration against the US embassy for exploiting innocent applicants.

    Thankfully, as a Canadian, I will never have to go through a US visa interview. We can enter the US visa-free for up to180 days (many Canadian retirees do this and spend the winter months in Arizona, Texas or Florida). When we line up at the airport, we can line up with the Americans (that.line usually moves much faster) because we don't have to get our irises or fingerprints scanned, like all other foreigners do (though they do have full access to Cdn databases for crimes, health, etc so they know if you have committed a crime and can deny entry to you based on this). And yes, we can even study visa-free in the USA (however we do still need to register under the I-20 Student Registration program). When I got my pilot's license in the USA, no student visa was required. And the best part of getting the pilots lic in the USA is every single license, rating and endorsement is completely transferable to Canada, unlike EU, UK, Australia or any other country that has their own licensing requirements. (Only the PPL is transferable in most countries but not instrument rating, multi-engine, floatplane, etc.)

    Unfortunately the person interviewed me was so serious, no smile whatsoever, didn't ask many questions or talk so much, even didn't ask for so many documents I had with me, in few minutes he just decided to hold my visa on administrative process :-( So sad because me and my husband are getting older every year and already it is 4 years we are living seperated after 3 years being together in another country. They took away the chance of even thinking to have a kid, or for me it is getting harder and harder to get an education inside of the US, if it ever happens anyway. It's just not fair or human. What I could possibly have done as an artist, that prevents them to just issue a visa for me to live with my husband.

    I did not apply for a visa to the United States, but all visa centers in most countries of the 1-st world require a huge pile of documents. And if the decision is mainly made on the basis of an internal criminal investigation, a visa application form and an interview, then WHY the hell do I need to prepare this bunch of documents! I don't understand! I spent a lot of money even on the translation of documents and I believe that 90% of these documents are not opened by my officer at all. I would be glad if you could explain this side of the visa officer's job.

Have not seen my eldest son more than seven years. Youngest son almost four years.Never have seen three of my grand children. I am thinking everyday of them and hug all of them in prayers. Actually I had no intention to stay there. Always came back after visit. Yet...unfortunately in my last two interviews it's denied. I don't know whom to blame.

    I was denied a visitor visa in 2009 for "having weak ties with this country" (my country of residence). I'd like to think it's because I wasn't married and had no children to come home to. Now, 2024 I'm still unmarried (by choice) and have no children. Is my chance to get a visa this time still slim, Sir? Any idea? Thank you.

    It was shocking that my brother and his wife’s B1 visa was just denied. The reason given was “the inability to prove strong ties to their home country (China), which would ensure they return after their U.S. visit.” They were told that if they choose to reapply, they would need to provide additional evidence such as stable employment, property ownership, family responsibilities, or social ties in China.
    This decision feels so unfair. Over 10 years ago, they willingly gave up their immigration visa, showing they had no intention of relocating to the U.S. permanently. They simply want to visit me. The officer didn’t review the application that clearly state on the application form. They paid over $360and the officer finish their interview in 2 minutes.

    I have a very important question. I was not arested in USA on any criminal link, but was arrested and relieased and the case was dismissed on a case that was civic. It was related to immigration. I was given a case, court date to prove that I changed school properly, my school provided that and the case was dismissed. Even everytime i traveled to USA before, I had to wait extra 30 minutes or so at a special room, just for them to check this thing. Now, should I say I was arrested? although it was not criminal? It was related to removal proceedings that was dismissed.

    I have applied for a visit visa DS-160 type B1/B2. Before this, I have also applied for immigration visa, but it is a invalid application. The story is that I went to a visa agent and asked him to process my application, and he told me that I do not deal with US visit visas, and he told to me to do that go to US immigration website and fill an application. I created an account and paid $10 fee, but that application is very complicated I could not understand it and left it incomplete. Then I came to know about the process of visit visa, and I applied for it. Now, I don't know how I am going to convince the visa officer that I was misguided by the visa agent and that my immigration application is incomplete and useless.
