The
Consular Officer spoke to me only for two minutes and then denied
my application for a visa. How can one get any impression of a
person in such a short time?
Unfortunately, due to the large number of applications, the
consular officer cannot devote more time to interviewing
applicants and reviewing visa applications. Therefore, you have to
try to present your case in a most concise and, at the same time,
comprehensive manner. Furthermore, your documents are being
reviewed from the moment you file your application and pay the
consular fee. In other words, before your application reaches the
officer's desk, it has been pre-processed and reviewed by other
people.
Can my
American friends, relatives or business partners help me to get a
VISA?
Your friends, relatives or business partners may provide a
letter of invitation or support. However, this cannot guarantee
visa issuance. Visa applicants must qualify for the visa according
to their own circumstances, not on the basis of an American
sponsor's assurance.
Who
can influence the Consular Officer to reverse a decision?
Immigration law delegates the responsibility for issuance or
refusal of visas to consular officers overseas. They have the
final say on all visa cases. Neither the Head of the mission, nor
other state officials and governmental bodies can influence the
consular officer's decision. Their intervention can be only of a
recommendatory or informative nature. The U.S. Department of State
has the authority to review consular decisions, but this authority
is limited to the interpretation of the law, as contrasted with
the determination of facts. Assessment of ties abroad is a factual
issue, and thus is not the authority of the U.S. Department of
State.
I had
all the documents about my job, property and relatives. I think I
have very strong ties. Why was I denied?
According to Section 214 (b), "…every alien shall be presumed
to be an immigrant until he establishes to the satisfaction of the
consular officer, at the time of application for admission, that
he is entitled to a nonimmigrant status." In other words, the
consular officer has to get enough evidence that the applicant has
strong ties to the country of his residence and does not intend to
immigrate to the United States. If you were denied a visa, the
information you presented was not enough to convince the officer
of your strong ties to Belarus.
