Hi everyone,
I was denied a U.S. B2 visa today and I’m looking for honest advice on reapplying.
My interview (what happened):
VO: Have you ever experienced any threats or assault in your country?
Me: No.
VO: What is the purpose of your visit?
Me: I’m traveling to watch the FIFA World Cup. Uzbekistan qualified for the first time in history and I have two tickets — one match against Portugal and one against Congo. I’m going with my father and his friends.
VO: Where do you work?
Me: I work at a bank.
VO: Who will pay for the trip?
Me: My father will cover the costs.
VO: Are you married or single?
Me: Single.
VO: I’m sorry, I cannot approve your visa today under Section 214(b).
My profile:
• 20 years old, male, Uzbekistan
• University student (final year)
• Employed at a bank
• Traveling with my father
• Have two match tickets (Portugal & Congo)
• Zero connections in the USA — all family and relatives are in Uzbekistan
• My mother has a U.S. visa and already visited and returned home
• My father also has a U.S. visa and will be traveling with me
• Trip purpose was solely to watch our national team in their historic first World Cup
Has anyone from Central Asia or a similar profile successfully reapplied after 214(b)? What documents helped the most? Any advice welcome
