- In this video, a former Visa Officer tells the candid truth about whether or not U.S. Visa Officers (also known as Consular Officers) ever make a decision on the visa application before the interview.
To book a one-on-one session with former Visa Officer and U.S. immigration attorney Mandy Feuerbacher, visit www.zfvisa.com.
Excellent points! As a former consular officer myself, thank you so much for trying to dispell so many of these inaccurate misconceptions.
Thank you Matt! And I just discovered lots of cute video uploads of your kids! :D
Thank you Mandy and Matt as well for the validation.
I've great confidence in your guidance Mandy.
I had submitted my DS-160 application as an individual going on holidays last year and was given an appointment date for November, 2023. However, my children (girls aged 15 and 13) just got an invitation for a World Youth conference also in the US for summer 2024.
Can I change my individual application to a family application on this same DS-160 and pay for and include my wife and my last kid to make of 5 of us on that file?
BTW, we had always travelled international trips together.. We even gave birth to our last kid in the UK in 2014.
Matt Pierson how can I contact you please?
@@user-hv1vy9mr4i I am no longer in that line of work. You're much better off contacting Mandy.
@@ZFvisaHello...I was already refused 3 times in a month in 2013 when applied for undergraduate programme. Are there any possibility to get visa in 4th time in Master's programme after 10 years? What should I demonstrate to the Visa Officer if he asked me about my 3 times prior refusal? Please do the useful.
Clarity in your presentation is exceptional, Mandy, God bless you.

Thank you for your support.Does my country's situation affect my F1 visa interview? there is a war in my country
Hello good to see you and your videos
Please update you work on EB2 NIW case ?
Thanks Mandy .. I got my VISA approved after my first trial .. y’all the real MVPs
Congratulations!
Can you share with me detail of your interview ,what was it like etc.....and what country did you apply from please
Congratulations
Hi Mandy, I enjoyed your vlog on the visa interview. I am a U.S. citizen who retired, moved to the Philippines, and got married to a Filippino. My brother-in-law died and I wanted to take my spouse to the U.S. along with me to meet my extended family at his celebration of life ceremony. My spouse applied for a tourist visa to travel in May and discovered that the earliest interview was in July. As a result, I will now go alone to the U.S.
I was wondering if this huge wait was common and looked at the interview waiting times for several other countries, and discovered that if we were in Thailand, the estimated waiting time was only 7 days. This disparity shocked me and as an American who pays my taxes to the U.S. even though living overseas.
My spouse has absolutely no interest in moving to the U.S. and I want to remain in the Philippines myself. There appears to be no process whereby my spouse can get a visa to travel with me to the U.S. every couple of years to visit our family. It is hard to plan visits to the U.S. to attend weddings, funerals, and graduations a half a year ahead of time.
In addition, my spouse hears that any chance to get approved for a tourist visa are poor because of not holding a job. This is because we are constantly traveling because I want to see the world. We have traveled to 19 Philippine provinces and 5 foreign countries in the last year and a half.
Why the huge discrepancy in the waiting times between embassies? Is it true that because my spouse doesn't hold a job that a tourist visa is likely to be denied?
The wait time in the Philippines is very long right now. You could consider applying in another country like Thailand. I would highly that she prepare with me because the refusal rate for Filipino applicants is very high.
Excellent point!!❤Mandy you always suggest important points should be included in your answer during interview.Could you please tell the answer what that imp points means?
It is different for each person. The best way to find that out is by booking a session with me: www.zfvisa.com
Thank you
😊Thank you for sharing this information to us,it's a great help to me.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Mandy, thankyou for giving all the information thru the videos.
I am Canadian citizen and my dad sponsor me and my brother and sister from india in 2008 in F3 category. My dad is retired and one of my sister, single mom US citizen and my dad lives with her she fill the form I-864A contract between sponsor and house hold member, her income is only $35000 annually but she have 2 property's, one is principal home and second is rental property and both properties are paid off and value of both properties are $900K plus bank balance she have 1.1million assets. I think this amount is more then enough to sponsor 3 familys. I have interview last year june 2022. me, my husband and my son got immigrant visa. In India my brother and his wife and 2 kids also got approved after interview in September and got immigrant visa. But my sister her husband and son in india have interview in December 2022 and they got refuse. They got the papaer on interview, in paper they are asking for new joint sponsor. We don't have any other joint sponsor. Can you please give suggestion what can we do now. My father is waiting from last 15 years to see everyone together but he can't 😢. he is sick and can't go back home to see them, he got stroke last month because of all the stress 😢😢
Thanks madam yeah 🙏,
Welcome 😊
Thank you mom , please does interview officer review your previous denial application before making decision on your current application?
Marriage Base visa question: If at the time of the interview at an embassy, I was granted a CR1 visa and at the Port of entry in the USA I was a month past my 2nd wedding anniversary, I have seen cases where USCIS grants a conditional still but the law states: "if the second anniversary of the marriage upon which the immigrant visa is based occurred after the issuance of the visa and prior to the alien's application for admission) the endorsement on the visa shall be corrected and the alien shall be admitted as a lawful permanent resident without conditions, if otherwise admissible". Please do a video explaining this
Hi Mandy please would you consider making a video about how to prove home ties while replying to VO questions
Sure, I'll add it to the list.
Hi Mandy,
My Elder Brother's Wife (sister-in-law) is a US citizen. My brother is currently working in Australia, but my sister-in-law has already filed a petition for my brother to move to the US after a year. However, I will be having my F1 Visa interview before it.
Do I have to mention my brother and sister-in-law in the DS 160 form?
Will visa interviewers know about the petition filed by my sister-in-law and how to deal with questions if they ask about them? Also, my brother is the main sponsor for my Master's studies.
You are great
Madam
Thank you for your guidance.
Please share the video for B1/B2 visa denial with receipt written reason under 214(b)
Thank you Mandy for your effort and making such helpful videos.
I am from Afghanistan and have applied for SIV because of my work with US government. It is under process.
Meanwhile, I got admission from a US university with 70% scholarship and planning to apply for F1 visa from Cyprus as I am now in Cyprus.
Having SIV under process and living in Cyprus, will it affect my F1 visa?
The main reason is I’m planning to get a master degree before my SIV is approved and it will help me in the future to get better opportunities instead of waiting for SIV approval which may take up to two years.
Your interview will be tougher because it's unlikely Consular Officers in Cyprus are used to seeing Afghan passports. Plus having an immigrant visa pending will be an extra layer of complexity.
Hi Mandy, great video's and I wish I had looked prior to now.. My Sister-in-law in China has now, as of yesterday (with WA State Senators help) been denied 9 times, never giving a reason. Her parents are here, in the US, and are green card holders, her Dad is in Hospice and not expected to live much longer. We are overwhelmed with this crazy process and do not know what to do next. She has no criminal record, isn't political and made it very clear in her last interview that they need and want to come back to China. Do you have any recommendations moving forward?
hello mandy,
if you already have an immigration file for the US and you apply for an F1 visa, how do you tackle questions related to it? could you please make video regarding the suitable answers to that question?
They will know that you have an immigrant visa petition, and you will need to address it during the interview. How you discuss it depends on the rest of your situation, so it's best to have a one-on-one session to discuss your situation. You can book with me at www.zfvisa.com. Good luck!
How could we check any university or college is black listed in embassy list?
Pls make a video for J1 trinee
Hello Mandy… Great insight! Can u make a video on “Student Visa Interview” please. Thank you
Will do. Thanks for the suggestion.
Yaaay… Thank you
Do they check to see if the person has been reported to immigration?
My Italy student visa got refused two times in a row. Even after great interview, Education loan disbursal, Showed property documents, Wrote future plans after course completion still mentioned Intent to return as refusal reason.
Hi Mandy, thank you for this helpful information. I am scheduled to have the interview on August and it will be here in the UK as this is where my work is. A bit concerned that my parents are in the US and they have overstayed there for years now, while I have a history of visa denial 10 yrs ago while still a student. Do you think the consul will consider my case for a tourist visa? I have established myself here in the UK holding a work visa permit in one of the big 4 firms and have travel history in other countries. My intention is really visit the US for tourism, and of course visit my parents, but with all honesty do not have the intention to overstay. Your advice is greatly appreciated 😊😊
Your history will still play a role but since it's been a long time, I think you have a good chance if you properly prepare. Good luck!
@@ZFvisa thank you so much! 🙏🏼
Does the same visa officer who interview the applicant review the DS160 form information before the interview day? TIA
do they even look at any information that’s submitted to USCIS or NVC?? do they just briefly look over the DS260 and decide what questions to ask or does each IO have certain questions they ask each applicant?
Speak about the Dv lottery
Thanks, adding to my list.
does the visa officer have access to the university application you are going to, like the SOP you submitted and everything
But what I really couldn't figure out is they don't let you elaborate, develop or answer with details, and at once they deny you your visa. And it is definitely impossible for applicants to give details when they are are asked to questions .
Exactly, that's why it seems like they have made early decisions.
Hello Mandy, hope you are doing good. Can you provide info on H1B lottery and H4EAD and how to prepare for the same? Please provide your insights from approval point of view. Thanks in advance!
It's important to know everything about your H1-B petition, including your salary, job responsibilities, etc. Make sure there are no inconsistencies.
If anyone have ban from United Kingdom due to some fake consultants who doesn’t know how to proceed . Then what is chances of a candidate to get a b1b2 visa if they wish to do it
Can we add 2sponsers for f1 visa
Hello Mandy,
Despite being honest about every quesions I have been rejected thrice for F2 visa.
Cant figure out whats the reason. We have money and time in it. Its very dissapointing.
In both my interview of second and third attempt, I was only asked two questions and then got rejected.
Now I am going to book my dates again. Hope this time it gets approved.
I think thay do
They do not. Not until the visa interview.
Hi Mandy, i was refused on 25th July 2023 at Nairobi Embassy, Kenya, and given 214b and i didn't knew the reason for my refusal, but on recalling well, i was such nervous at interview and not being able to give sufficient answers to my Consulae officer
I’m sorry to hear that, and it’s very common!
Hi, I would like to hear your opinion about my situation for US visa.
2018 I got US visa (J1) for the first time. Next year 2019 I was denied for the US visa (J1). 2022 I've applied again for visa (J1 intership training program), but unfortunately I was denied again.
Couple months ago I got job on a Cruise ship and now I am waiting for my interview for US C1D visa.
My question is, what's my chances to get C1D visa after having two unsuccessful attempts before?
Thank you
Hi Edgard, please book a session with me so I can understand exactly what happened at your interview (the one where you were denied). You can book at www.zfvisa.com.
Sorry what i mean was when ever
Thanks
Hello Ma'am. Please how many months bank balance is safe to present for an I-20 application and at the embassy too? Thank you very much for your great content
Like I haven’t traveled to any country before due to my nature of studies and Now I have completed my certification from Pakistan and planning to go USA for completing the 4rth part of it because it is only possible from USA and most in demand by all the multinational companies of my home country. But I want to take advice whether my prior travel history will matter or not?
Prior travel history is one factor they will consider.
Hi, will my visa get declined if I have a pending prosecution on my ACRO?
Hello,
I just wanted to understand couple of questions in regards to F2 Dependant Visa Process
1. Firstly is it mandatory that the applicant explain the officer that he will return back to the home country in so and so time rather just being true that they would want to accompany there partner till he/she is done with the entire master course.
2. For the people who reapply for visa interview process in any category, Does that make any difference in decision for the Interviewer, Like just because a person was denied a visa earlier will he/she be asked more questions or the interview goes Intense.
Looking forward to hear from you😊
Yes, if you've had prior denials, be prepared to talk about what has changed.
Hi .Had my visa appointment today felt that everything went well yet rejected.the reason I thi k is I was unable to show handsome income of my mother .I said 6000$ per annum salary and 6000$ from rental source. Although I said the truth and have enough funds 😢 yet rejected
Officer i seen many of the guys who was rejected buy they told that they give all the necessary information they ask in a proper manner and they also eligible to seek vissa but they were refused i mean they all said speak less you said speak properly give extra information at the end they said its all upon your luck even though everything will go perfect
Proper preparation is important for visa interview success.
Why visa officers go to their colleagues before making the decision 🤔?
Sagar, sometimes officers are new and inexperienced, so they like to get a second opinion.
Mam can i get my f1 visa with 44% in high school, but i have 6 bands in IELTS
Hello Mandy Ma'am How are you ??
You are doing a great job 👍
God bless you 🙏
I watched all of your videos
This is the most important for me to know that
I traveled to the UAE, South Africa, Austria, Greece, UK and New Zealand but I got banned from Canada for 5 years so am I eligible to apply for the USA?
There is no option to tell the US for other countries refusal in DS160 !
Do other countries refusals matter for the US or not?
Waiting for your reply ma'am
Thank you,
Yes, sometimes it matters. Being banned from the Canada will matter to a U.S. consular officer.
Mam please upload some videos on f1 visa
Will do!
Hi Mam.. I really wanted know about dv lottery work experience category, there are many applicants visa has been denied due to the lack of knowledge. I am a pro sales person and education qualification is high school no degree coz failed in one subject and passed in business studies and accounting. Please let’s know what really CO looks at us about our qualification when we have svp 7 and above. 🙏 thanks and god bless you
B1/B2 you have no viedo on this topic
Hi Mandy, thanks for the useful information,my husband has been denied for using wrong application mean while is the right application dat is B1B2 visa for an exams that will take a month but de officer said he should hv used F1 he is confused now and he don't know what to do now hope you can help him out thanks 🙏
He Mandy,
Is this channel is separated from the Argo channel?
Is it an official channel?
Yes, this is separate from the Argo channel, and yes, it is an official channel.
Hi Mandy. Wonderful info i must say.. i need to know if an applicant lied to visa officer and then reapply after several years. Does he get rejection again based on previous interview?
Yes. And if you lied in order to get a visa, you may have a permanent ineligibility (ban) to the U.S. so it's important to work with an expert to figure out what happened.
I was refused USA student visa in 2018 from Pakistan. After that I went to Australia for education. Now i'm working in Australia with decent Salary and currently awaiting for my Australian Permanent Residency. My company is sponsoring/sending me to USA to attend some events and conferences. i will be applying for b1b2 visa from Australia with my Pakistani passport. I have 2 questions, 1) What are the chances of me getting B1B2 visa considering my previous student visa refusal and my company sponsoring my tour. 2) during the interview do i mention my previous student visa refusal and will it affect the outcome? I will appreciate your feedback!!.
Hi Hassam, it really all comes down to how you present yourself at the interview, which is too difficult to explain in a UA-cam message. Please book a session with me and I would be happy to help you, at www.zfvisa.com. Since you've been denied before, you are at risk for being denied again. Good luck.
Hi maa how are u doing I want more guide abut the us consular interview am given an admission at Madison college.please your assistance is highly recommend
Greetings Mandy! Thank you very much for all those helpful videos!!! I had my changing of status I-485 family base interview on August, 2021. The interview officer told my mom and I everything seems fine and I should get my card in the mail within 1 month.
But until now I hadn’t gotten anything, nor any notification from USCIS. I regularly check on the website and it says the same thing “Interview was completed and my case must be reviewed”. Also my final action date is not yet current, could that be the problem? Another thing, how long does it take to get approved? If you can please clarify that for me, I will really appreciate it!!! Thank you very much!!!
Best Regards!
Do you have an immigration attorney? Ask them to check in with USCIS.
@@ZFvisa Thank you very much for answering Mandy!!! I don’t have one, that’s why I wanted to see if you can clarify that for me.
Brother I apply my visa b1b2 in November and my family already got the visa and I'm the responsor for my family and he put me the administer processing can you help me about that
Hi Mandy , thanks for this informative session .. you are truly an expert .
Do visa officers check your name on the list of American citizens
To see if you have any relative who is a citizen already? I mean during your interview or even before it.
No, they do not. But you must be honest on your DS-160 application and there are other ways they can find out.
@@ZFvisa I have no travel history, can I apply for Usa visit visa??(
How to dress to J1 summer work&travel visa interview?
You can dress for it like a job interview.
They did. She denied so many applicants a ahead than me and me and after me. I have complete requirements like assets, house title, land, business permit and bank balance but she didn't ask those things and she just denied my application.
I'm sorry to hear that. Properly preparing for the interview is very important to overcome the previous denial.
Hi Mandy, thank you for all the information in your videos :)
My dad is Argentinian and they have lived in the UK for 5 years now. My dad have all the rights to leave in the UK, he rent a flat here for 5 years,.
Also, my sister and I have been living in the UK for 7 years and we are actively working. However, my dad is retired and he doesn't speak English.
The appointment is in June, US embassy in London.
I have 2 questions:
1. Can i attend to the interview with them as their interpreter? If so, is there anything i have to do?
2. Is it an issue that my dad is retired and not actively working?
3. We are going on holidays in September for 10 days, my parents, my sister, my boyfriend and me.
Thank you so much for you help, i will really appreciate your answer.
Hello Jennifer , I had an interview with officer in London too (October 2023) .
Im not Mandy of course 😅but I am pretty sure that your 1st question’s answer will be No .
If anyone requires a translator, they will provide it or find any other way to communicate in the language which your dad knows
and you can’t accompany them even inside the building because it’s only for applicants and those who is holding interview time confirmation😊
Hope you’ll get your answers and best of luck 🤞
Hi Mandy the time my dv260 approved 2020 then i was not married with kids will it affect my visa
Hey mandy,
I wnat to continue my education after my masters by doing phd for getting job as professor in my home country in iit. Will i need to menthion this information in the interview if they ask about by future plans in interview

Does travel history is necessary for getting F1 visa and does it really matter?
It will be considered but it's just one factor.
Great work Mandy. I have 2 bachelor's degree and a masters degree in finance and investment all from my home country.i run my own business and I have found that there is a high demand for business analytics in my country, i have admission for it . Please How do I approach this in my interview when asked why second masters.
Hi Kofi, book a consultation with me and I will work with you on this: www.zfvisa.com. Good luck!
Hy Kofi! I am at the same situation!
Hello Mandy, I have a question here with DV lottery. I have a senior secondary certificate and also 6months Marine engineering certified certificate so when filling the Ds_260 forms can I apply both certificates together and also send both certificates to the interview?
I answered over e-mail.
Hey Mandy
If the visa is not pre decided then on what basis do interviews get denied after 10-30 seconds?
It's purely based on the interview you have with the officer and how you answer the questions.
Hi Mandy. I was refused B1 visa on December with family. I was dependent. And only 17 back then. Will it affect my F1 visa? That refusal.
Hi Ruhsafi, all prior refusals will impact future visa applications, and clearly there is something going on that is affecting your chances of success. Let me know if you would like to prepare before your next interview. You can book a session with me at www.zfvisa.com.
Hi Mandy,
Is it possible to someone to apply for a US visa in another country even though that person he is not a resident of this country where he wants to apply for the US visa?
Thank you in advance!
Hi Jim, yes you can, but you have to have a good reason to be in that country. Visa Officers don't like it when people "visa shop" for locations that they think are easier to get approved in.
some one ask me what should you say to a VO when they ask you' what have changed ? since your last denial his question were do you change your situation on the ds-160 or is this changes about you , about things you did not represent like finances , properties, job promotion , travel history, what changes do they want to know , is it a personal changes or ds-160 chenge help some one know about it
This is a great question for working together in a consultation-- there is no simple answer. Book a session with me and let's figure out what's the right answer for you.
Do you need to bring any evidence to make correction on the date of birth of a parent when during the visa interview?
Yes.
Hi dear, the visa officer has denied to me this February.
I have some questions😊
1. How can i tell about my son who is 4 year old
2. I am going to come to B1/B2 interview this SEPTEMBER to participate pharmacy conference in New york. What would you recommend to me
I have been denied visa twice right after the officer asked me about information for my parents. What happened, and what can I do for my next interview. This happened in a foreign country where I am in completing my higher education.
You need to prepare for that question then.
I'm a new subscriber of this channel..
Can someone who has a c1 d1 visa apply for a tourist visa?
What are the chances of getting the visa approved
Make video about questions what type questions ask officer??
It's not the questions that are important, it's how you answer them.
Topic I haven't seen much info on for future video idea: I'm a U.S. Citizen and married a Mexican, we live in Mexico permanently so there's no point in filing an I-130 for him. I only want him to be able to visit with me. Have you had these situations before? He was denied once already because he didn't get a chance to explain the situation.
Thanks for the topic idea. Book a session with me and I will help you get the Consular Officer to give you the chance to explain. You can book with me at www.zfvisa.com.
We’re full time volunteers on a modest stipend so it’s out of my price range but I appreciate all you’re sharing on this platform. Thanks so much!

Hello Mandi,
Being honest I really want to book an consultation with Argo but I don’t have that much money to spend for that. Is their any way you can do 1on1 session for lower price.
Hi Andee, you can book with me at zfvisa.com. It's lower than Argo's price.
Does the interviewer profile the applicant , example , a senior, visited US a few times on an ESTA, no overstays etc or a working age person, no history of visiting US etc?
Those sound like positive facts.
Helo mandy am sharon , I was selected for dv lottery 2022 and i received ma 2nl jst preparing for interview , but before i ws denied a visa for confrence and I was married but I separated with my husband and thus tym for dv I applied as single, will the consular ask for marriage documents yet am single?
Hlo mam, i need help about i was refused form Canada two time and one time from Australia, is it putt negative impact on my profile if i apply for usa f1 visa.I am very confused about it , please gave me any solution.
Hello...i want to know what will i answer for question on ds 160 'do you have ever petition on your behalf? Yes/no?' my scenario is - my mother with family has f4 category petition by my aunt (us citizen) on 2021 as now i am 21+ age and married i am ineligible for this petition..then what will be answer of this question?
You need to answer yes, but it's important in how you explain it and provide context. Book a session with me and I can work with you on it, at www.zfvisa.com. Good luck.
Hi Mandy, your vlogs help a lot to those who are interested to apply tourist visa to the US. I have a question I was denied for b1b2 back in 2018 in Dubai using my married passport. I recently changed my passport back to my maiden name as my husband passed away due to covid. I wanted to try booking appointed again in Dubai US consulate this time with my passport reverted to my maiden name. I am still working for the same company when i was denied, its my 9th year with the same company and ive got salary increase lastyear. Do you think having salary increase will help my circumstance change if the consul asks me what has been changed after my denial? Do i need to bring the death certificate of my husband during the interview to justify my status change in my passport? Do you think being widowed will be difficult for me to get a tourist visa? Appreciate your advise on my sitution. 😊
Hi YSL, all of the issues you mentioned will be considered at the interview. The most important thing is preparing for the interview so you can handle it with confidence. Book a session with me at zfvisa.com and I could help you prepare. Good luck.
Please f4 family visa application
There should be some discounts for the students 🫣
Hi dear sister if i registered my interview appointment' may be i have registered the wrong coz im recieving messages from the embassy of my interview telling me to register. and ever i try to register again its showing that this has already been taken what must i do?
Not sure what you are asking.
Hi. Good Day, Kindly assist me as my US Visa Status is showing appvoed and its been one month,
Is that normal ?
Do i need to make any follow up email ?
Usually how long it takes in this kind of case ?
Kind Regards
Is it possible to call to embassy to find out the real reason for denials? They give you a basic yellow paper which indicates nothing useful
it's not likely that they will offer any explanation. Send us an email to info@zfvisa.com, and we'll help you out.
Hi Ms Mandy! Thank your for the video. I really learned alot. May i ask some advice? Im a citizen in the Philippines but im working and living in dubai for almost 8years now. Im planning to aply for US Visa and do the interview in the Philippines. Is that a red flag?
Hi Joanna, no you can apply in the Philippines or Dubai. Good luck.
Hi Mandy, I have already applied for the DV lottery and am yet to have my f1 interview will they deny my visa if am not selected or have a record of me
It will only affect your visa interview if you have been selected.
Do visa officers consider your social media account usage t to o approve or deny your visa?
They do sometimes.
I have been put in AP after my interview but have not been asked to provide any further documents
Please is this something to worry about and how long roughly can it take for me to get feedback from the embassy?
It depends on the type of administrative processing it is under. If you book a session with me, I can help you understand if there is something you can do to get your case moving again. Please book a session with me at www.zfvisa.com. Good luck!
