- Our clients often ask us whether previous trips to the United States or elsewhere might help them qualify for a U.S. Visa. The answer is almost always: YES!
Former Visa Officer and U.S. Immigration Attorney Travis Feuerbacher explains how previous travel can help you qualify for your next visa, and he offers some tips to maximize your past travel history.
Set up a consultation with one of our ex-Visa Officers to help you prepare for your next visa interview at zfvisa.com!

I was denied a US visa last year despite having a travel history that entails Rwanda, Uganda and France, where i had gone, two months before my visa interview. Actually, i reapplied for a US visa two months after jetting into the country from France.
Unfortunately, travel history (while often helpful) isn't a guarantee that you'll qualify for a visa. The Visa Officer will look at as many details about your situation as possible when making their decision. Schedule a consultation with us at zfvisa.com before your next interview, and we'll help you prepare!

Hi, I am a US Citizen, my wife was granted an IR1 Lawful Permanent Residency (LPR) and a Social Security number on 5/19/1997, and lived in the USA with me until 3/17/1999 and she had not returned to the USA since that date. Her Resident Alien Card expiry date is 06/10/2007. My QUESTION is; if her LPR status still active or not, and if I should file Form I-90 or Form I-130 all over again.

Hi, can you please help to answer a question? I was in USA a couple years ago with J1 visa and I had social security number. Now that I’m applying for C1D visa should I put that SSN in my DS-160? Or not need?
If you have a social security number, you should include it where asked. Remember: the key to the visa application process is to be honest, and answer all questions truthfully!
@@ZFvisa Ok, thank you so much for taking the time to answer. Have a good day!! 😁
I am from Bangladesh
hi , I want to know that what qualification do you need to become a visa officer in canada or us and is there any training required .......pls let me know .
While we can't offer much insight about Canadian visa officer qualifications, for the United States, the State Department has details about how to apply, necessary qualifications, and what to expect here: careers.state.gov.
@@ZFvisa Thanks 🙏🏻…… but I didn’t find any information about visa officer … can you tell me about what specific degree you need to have and what test is there ….
Hi Sir, I have traveled twice to U.S before and had many Schengen visas (England, Germany, Austria ..) but all that was 13 years ago.
I still have the old passports to prove that. What are my chances of getting a visa now if I apply now?
It's difficult to say without knowing more about your situation. Schedule a session with us at zfvisa.com, and we'll help you prepare!
I will thanks
I am wondering does it effect if I stay in a place like Dubai since 8 years with a stable job in reputable organization in the Middle East. And travelled before to Turkey, Thailand, Italy, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, but still single and my age is 39 years old. Can all of the previous factors help me qualify for US Visa ?
This could certainly help, but remember that travel is only one of many details a visa officer will consider when deciding whether to issue your visa. Schedule a consultation with us at zfvisa.com if you'd like help preparing for your interview!
Do having previous J1 history as intern on 2017 have a positive impact on getting B1/B2?
Generally, yes!
if you were a student in US in 96 for 4 years and exited legally. Does that count?
Absolutely!
Please help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had an integrated masters degree in computer science for which I travelled to bangkok for my graduation ceremony as the course has been finished during the covid and graduated in 2022 (work expe of 1 yr 3mon) and I want to do masters in software engineering in san jose state university, but my visa got rejected now on june 5th 2024(i think the main reason was i mentioned i had masters and bachelors degree in my ds 160 so specifically by filling it seperately), so i am not understanding how to improve my profile and reapply for visa for this fall 2024. Please help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's sometimes difficult to explain why you're going to obtain a second degree at the same level. You may want to check out our online F-1 visa courses at www.zfvisaguides.com, where we explain how to explain your unique circumstances to your Visa Officer to improve your chance of success.
Does this mean that anyone who has never traveled before has no opportunity?
Not at all! Previous travel is just one way you might improve your chances. Many people spend their first trip abroad in the United States!

Have been denied a visa in Mozambique. Can i still reapply
You can always reapply, but keep in mind that previous refusals are noted in the system, and the more times you're denied, the harder it may become to qualify for a visa in the future. Schedule a consultation with us at zfvisa.com, and we can help you prepare for your next interview!
Does travel history matter if I want to apply for F1 visa?
Yes! Be honest and forthcoming about previous travel. It can often help you qualify.
4:50 you can’t show photos, because US embassy doesn’t allow to take a phone with you 😂 it’s impossible , or just to print pictures?))
No all photos are on a mobile phone!
Hi can i give my interview questions in hindi?
Possibly - that will depend on where you apply, and the type of visa you’re seeking.
Deported from canada, can i apply for usa tourist visa ??
You can certainly apply, but the deportation may complicate your case. Remember to BE HONEST, and schedule a session with us if you’d like help preparing!
Sorry, i don't know if if someone smeared honey on the usa but really, you make things very complicated ...
one has to prove he/she is innocent as if that person is being judged and the burden of proof lies onto his/her shoulders...
i've been rejected once and won't apply again in 100 years
I’m sorry to hear that- it can be a tough process.
