- The default in a visa interview is refusal, you have to convince the visa officer that you deserve a visa issuance.
You need to communicate the highlights of your case and provide positive evidence that you deserve a visa issuance while countering the negative aspects of your case. This is how you will avoid a 214(b) visa refusal.

Kya hua bhai interview meh ?
i got my visa approved yesterday and i must say your videos helped a lot.and i had a totally different idea of the interview before watching your videos.
Hi i got my B1/B2 visa approved today with 0 travel history and fresh passport. I didnt even have any relatives there. The interview took around 10 mins and I explained him my whole situation here to visa officer. He didnt even look at my documents. Thank you for your tips sir. They helped a lot.
Congratulations.... Can you share your experience with me?
Pls explain how did it went ,and how u gave your answers
Congrats!! Thank you for the feedback. Safe travels!
Can u share it ? Plsss because my tourist visa interview last week was refuse . And also I am a O travel too
Hello, what kind of documents did you prepare?
I am begining to think the US B1/B2 visa interview process is a flawed one. How do you refuse someone with who earns more than $85,000 annual income after tax and has a recent travel history to Cairo, Casablanca, Dubai, and Johannesburg? Someone who has partly funded his brothers Masters education in the US paying more than $20,000 in the process? They don’t give you even 1 minute to explain the merits of your case when you are talking about your purpose of visit. Instead, they interrupt you in less than a minute and make up their minds in 30 seconds. Why would someone want to leave their lucrative job in their home country to live in the US with no assurance of work? I think the process needs to have a reassessment someday. My two cents.
Exactly
They want us to keep coming back and definitely it's all about money
I totally agree, just in 30sec can’t judge the person. He took 6min to explain why visa get rejected from this video,
@@venkateshbabu1611 like what's happening in the last three batches here nobody gets approval, so obvious they follow the politics just get money from hard word that's it
Thank you for the info from an American living in Lebanon. Best regards to u and God bless our country🇺🇲
Thanking you is not enough! May god bless you and everyone u love! ❤
Hello Ben! Great video as usual! so let me understand this 214 (b) , We put a lot of specific information on the DS-160, answer all the questions or explain our case at the interview just to get from the consular officer an ambiguous decision based on that generic section?
Your videos are very insightful and inspirational. Thank God I met you and your team
Thank you for the feedback!
Good video as always thanks for the information
Thanks you, Ben, I got my visa approved today. I was just refused one month ago. I watched a series videos in this channel and gradually figured out why I was rejected and how to improve this situation. I'm really passive in the first interview. I feel so nervous that I almost answer every question officer asked with less than five words. She rejected me in three minutes without checking any of my materials. But this time, I prepared a long answer contain all my highlight for the first question (What are you going to in the US) and guide him to go through my materials. Everything goes smooth! I really appreciate your generous sharing.🙏
Congrats! Thank you so much for your support. Safe travels!!
What a great job Mr Ben you are the real champ 👏
Who else loves ben??
There is just something about ben❤
Your videos literally helped me to get my visa in very first attempt .. thank you so much ❤
Congrats!
Thank you very much.
Thank you congratulations 🥂
Hi Ben,
you are really doing a very good job , am really inspired and educated by your kind polite explanations,cudos to you keep it up but how ever i have a real quick couple of questions to ask you below::
Q1)what is the real official US government site to surf and to be able to fill in the DS-160 forms??
Q2)After submitting successfully the completed DS-160 forms, how do i schdule my appointment for interview?? is it by calling the consulate or embassy or there is an option on the DS-160 forms to select for the schdulling??
How would a visa officer react after learning the fact that an F1 student has a plan B by applying for other countries like UK or Germany , while that student is being interviewed?
Money business here in our place. Consulate is manipulated by the politicians and business company. Keep on accepting applicant but once heard where they work they refused
Thanks sir
Thank you for all the tips, my B1 visa got approved this week. It was my 2nd attempt.😊
I was denied before...how did u passed the 2nd time...can give idea?
Practice practice practice, as 99% of the time they'll ask the same questions so we should practice our answers to build confidence. Here are the questions which I was asked :
Purpose of your visit?
Is your organization a US base?
What's your job profile?
Have you visited any other country?
Are you married ?
Do you have kids?
What is your salary?
Here are highlights in my answers :
-US base organization
- Invited by our Chief IT officer
-I am IT lead and Subject Matter expert
-I have my own property
Let me know in case of any other questions
. happy to help😊
Did they check your documents?
@@skincarewithmimi No they didn't
Didn't they ask about why you were rejected earlier?
Hey! I'm applying for an C1D Visa, should the current job match with the job I'm going to do in the cruise ship which I have to fill on ds 160 ?
I am going for my interview in 9 days for a B1/B2 visa, its my first time how do I navigate this to get an approval.
Hi Ben, I was refused a J2 visa last time and I was told that I didn’t have enough ties to my country. So I have reapplied. What should I be expecting
I have a question that I was on j-1 visa and i returned to India 4 month ago and I am subject to two year rule also I found on google that I can apply for another visa like visitor or study visa but i am not sure when can I apply for that. How much do I have to wait if i want to apply for visitor visa while I am in my two year rule period time.
Something I dont understand is why having a relative in the US is a bad thing. Doesn't it usually mean that they're able to financially support you and provide you assistance? (genuine question)
It can actually be a good thing! This is where presentation and your specific personal situation can make a big difference on the outcome.
Should I bring a new I20 From another University

I got a job offer from Alaska and I am persuing H1B visa. I plan to indicate previous denial when filling the form. Will I get the visa since I was denied Canada visit visa with a 5 year ban
Hi, I was wondering if I have a strong case. I want to get my B1B2 visa to take the National Physical Therapy Examination (NPTE). However I haven’t gotten out of the country yet (Philippines) and I just resigned from my PT job (This January 2024) to focus on my review. My parents are funding my review, exam and trip to Hawaii (where the exam will take place). I have resigned, yes however I have private home service clients.
Will my inexperience of not having had a visit to other countries and my recent resignation be seen as a negative? Is my case strong enough, do you think?
Could I use my private practice in turning my negative (my resignation) into a positive with said private practice?
Would love to hear anyone’s response. Thank you

Hi Ben, my question is: my mother is retired (69 yrs old) and does not have any source of income only her savings and support she receives from me and my brother. She lives with me, the breadwinner. My brother who lives in the US (US citizen) wants us to visit for Christmas; we live in the Caribbean. She will be traveling with me. I have traveled to the US a few times (recently renewed my visa, which expired last October) but this will be her first time applying for a visa; she has an appointment in March. She does not have any ties a part from her house. However, she is an avid churchgoer so we were lucky to convince her to miss 2 weeks of not going to church in her home country while she is away. There is absolutely no immigrant intent on her part. So what are her chances of getting a HB1/2 tourist visa? How can she sufficiently convince the Officer that she will be returning home?
We would be happy to work with you and your mother to give her her best chance at approval in a consultation with one of our officer at www.argovisa.com. You can also try out our free Visa Check-up here: www.argovisa.com/visa-checkup
I got my usa visa approved thanks for your advice sir❤🎉🎉🎉
Congrats!!! Thank you for the feedback. Safe travels!
A friend of mine was charged with petty larceny 20 years ago and did 200 hours of community service. She is going in two weeks for her B1/B2 visa interview. Will she be automatically denied? She's never been in any trouble with the law since.
While it won't be an automatic refusal, this will be a tough visa interview. Our team would be happy to help them to give them their best chance at approval. There are lots of factors that will need to be taken into consideration such as what they have been doing the last 20 years, where they live, their travel plans, their personal situation, and so much more. They can book a consultation at www.argovisa.com or you can send us an email at hello@argovisa.com if you have any other questions.

Thanks for the feedback!
I got 214(B) on my visa interview I applied for again but officer didn't ask me any questions
How did this happen
Watching this video two days before my interview
Good luck!
Dear sir, my f1 visa got refused in 2007, now I got an opportunity for H1-B visa. While filling ds160 I see a question asking 'have you ever been refused a us visa or been refused admission to the united states. Do I need to mention about my f1 refusal details or it's not required as it's H1B visa and not related to student visa. Also it's been 15 years since it happened, do this history exists?. Kindly suggest
Can you read the question properly?
Have you ever been refused a US visa? YES. Any visa refusal anytime in your life needs to be mentioned.
hello @Benjamin Arterburn please its my humble request you to make detail oriented video on "how to over b2 visa refusal " if that visa had been refused from third country in short make video on how to overcome b2 visa refusal if applied visa is refused from third country under 214b . so many users wants these video please make it

Hello,
Please how can you explain my refusal after been granted the visa three times and I've never overstayed or been convicted with a crime or any of these stuff, I'm been rejected three time in a row after being approved three times in a row, the interview always goes perfectly I always explain everything they ask for and basically it's the same thing as in the interviews where I have been approved, what's the difference ?
We need to speak with you to better understand a lot more about you case to figure out what likely led to your refusals to help with you a plan for the future. You can work directly with a Former U.S. Visa Officer at Argo to improve your chances.

You people are even afraid to conduct Visa Friday on Facebook as you are getting so much genuine negativity from the students. So you dont want to show the real side and covering by not conducting visa friday doubts on Facebook.👎😡
This is merely luck trust me
Lol you people don't lie. You always reject our F1 visa without any reason😡We are not sad about rejection. But as I got refused in November, I am not able to get refused slots. If we ask any query in CGI website you people ask us to wait for 352 Days. Waiting for 352 days is so much disheartening. And we are spending a lot on USA process. I spent almost 3 Lakhs. I got rejected for Northeastern University which is a top universitiy. You people simply reject us without telling any reason lol. In future we will show what indians are in our own style💯 Literally playing games with us. You people treating F1 students as slaves and terrorists. We are going to study and improve ourselve. But you people dont even have any mercy on students. Why USA universities are giving admissions if we are not qualified for F1 visa? 214b is a worst reason that we get as a common slip for every refused candidate. Definitely karma will hit back 🤞
They based on how we speak so if you're nervous they think were lying but i knw a lot of people got their visa but not honest though. Also they based on their mood, so frustrating
Hello Argo, did you mention any scenario where a F1 visa applicant has had refusals from two-three other different countries, on whether that will affect that applicant F1 visa success?
This will have a significant negative impact on your case. Visa Officers often look down on applicants visiting multiple countries to do their visa interviews and even have a term for this called "Visa Shopping". We strongly recommend you work with someone on our team to come up with a custom strategy to help you have your best chance at an approval in the future.
@@ArgoSocial I think I might have miscommunicated.
I meant, would US immigration have an issue with an applicant who applied for student visas to study in those respective countries, e.g. New Zealand or Canada, but were refused by their officers to study in their countries. Will that history cause an issue if the applicant was to apply for F1 visa for the first time?
I didn't mean to say the applicant was applying for F1 visa from different countries.
