My name is Jinto Tom Joseph. I'm from India. But currently past 3 months I lived in Belgium. I got a residence permit here. I got rejected once for US B1 visa interview from India in 2018. And I planning to take another appointment from Belgium because of my company's Business purpose.
But my company is in India. I still work for my company in WFH mode from Belgium because my wife is works on a Belgium company so I'm here for family reunion. Is there any chance of rejection because of I apply from here.
@@jintomaramattam I’m not sure about that, sorry. Please get help from an immigration attorney or the experts at Argo Visa for guidance. 😃
I have applied for B1/B2 visa because I want to give my Inbde (dental licence exam) ,is it the right visa I applied for? I am not a student so I didn't applied for student visa for that I have to be enrolled in the dental school, but for that I need to pass exam first.

IR1 and CR1 visa
I think visa officers/consular officers are unjust or not fair when it comes to issuing of visas or approving a visa application, an applicant might not be able to express him or herself to answer questions as the interview officer expect them to do, doesn’t mean the applicant is not a genuine traveler going to the US, then they get denied. Some applicants might answer the interview questions suitable as the officer expect them to do, but doesn’t mean they are genuine traveller to the US, their visa application get approved. Some officers also can just see an applicant and don’t like dislike the applicant, in this situation no matter how genuine you are, the officer can still refused your visa approval. I think mostly is just luck and depending on the Instincts of the consular officer. We are living in unfair world, if you are from certain countries they makes it difficult for you to travel to other countries, and they make it easier for people from certain countries to travel easily without no difficulties and restrictions.
Thank you! I am one of them. I am naturally a nervous person and I sometimes crumble under pressure and will forgot information or do not express myself properly. I have been denied twice yet all I want to do is visit for 3 weeks and return back to the UK.
got rejected 3 times. Spent almost £600 all wasted.
I'm sorry it seems unfair. What ideas do you have to make it better for people applying for visas?
bummer....
You are correct...

Hello, I went for a B1 visa interview to attend a Conference in Oct but I failed to show the letter that show that the company shall support my trip but showed my offer letter. It was denied on 214B basis. If I apply in a weeks time for the same conference since I got the letter from the company, what's the rate of success or what can I improve on? I got the conference invitation letter too. Thanks.
It will definitely help, the more proof you have the better

I'm 16 from Uganda and I have my f1 visa interview in July but my biggest question is will I be interviewed with the presence of my parent
If you are under 18 your parents should be there with you at the visa interview to give their consent
If I have a prior visa denial , will the american officer look at my previous DS160 In the next visa interview?
I’m not sure about that, sorry. Please get help from an immigration attorney or the experts at Argo Visa for guidance. 😃
The officer will see your previous rejection and will bear it in mind while you are trying to convince them at your appointment and high chances they’ll swing toward it unless you persuade them otherwise. Your application needs to be very very convincing

Greetings, I love your channel, many blessings, my wife went to her interview for the b1/b2 visa, they asked her several questions, but the question that caused her to be denied the visa was that she is Colombian and I am a Dominican traveling to Colombia with the whole family We have three children, and from Colombia we traveled to Italy to a fair where we were going to participate and the officer asked her who you left the children with when you traveled to Italy and she answered with my mother and automatically she told her that her visa could not be approved At this moment, what would be a correct answer?
I’m not sure, the correct answer is always the honest answer, not sure how that could be a problem

Hi Rob, you should also bring someone from Canada, right now they are offering the most seamless visa experience, after spending almost 80-90k (now India charges an additional 20% tax on foreign remittance to US) for MS, USCIS makes it really difficult for entrepreneurial engineers to earn money back while Canada makes it really easy. Why does US immigration make life so difficult for smart engineers, and especially issue RFE to critical roles like supply chain, data science?
👍 do you know somebody from there?

Wife was denied after third question. Legally married to my wife 14 months. Figured because we never want to live in the USA we would apply for a tourist visa instead of a green card. Especially if we only want to visit family every other year. We bought a new truck in Thailand and about to buy land to build a small home but still looking. I guess reapply next year for a tourist visa when we own the house or bite the bullet and just get a green card for a two week trip 😳.
Sorry to hear that! What were the questions?
Thank you so much for these informative videos. Learned a lot that is in general for interviews of different nationalities. But, If you do have an interaction with an ex-visa officer from "Italy". Please upload that as well. Thank you....
👍
an A1 country like USA is having a hard time controlling illegal workers hence giving tourist visa becomes a problem.. countries like Taiwan and hongkong on the other hand has no problem giving tourist visa and even Free of charge visas .. whereas they have legal workers working in their countries... its kinda ironic... i just came back from taiwan where i enjoyed visa free visit to this wonderful place... and enjoy every minute.. same as USA im sure i will visit soon.. (its been 20 yrs ago my last visit) vis cost usd200.00 not cheap.. and to think i have to prove this and that to the consul and theres possible of getting denied??? my oh my..its easier to just order online from amazon the things i like to buy..without goin through the hassles
This is EUs chance to poach the highly educated US H1B workers away from US and basically become the next IT boom zone. Generally US has made it harder for Indians specifically, so if you're planning to do a MS in US, I would suggest you to reconsider.
@@mohit4902 thanks so much for the info.. yes i would consider other countries to visit for now..

How I wish to go to the USA to visit my sister as well as to visit some interesting places in California such as museums, amusement parks and recreational area to watch live international entertainment and games.
