What is a 214b Visa Denial? Ex-Visa Officer Explains the Most Common Reason for Why This Happens

[@patrickrex6230]

February 2024. Mexico City. Visa interview. Two questions. What’s your name? Citizenship? Visa Denied. Never given a chance to show anything nor speak. And btw qualified by every metric,

[@ZFvisa]

Sorry to hear that! There could be other issues (maybe from previous interviews) that the officer used to reach their decision. Schedule a consultation with us at zfvisa.com, and we can help you plan strategically.

[@Mosscatski]

In Colombia they denied my (now) wife five times. Most of that time she was a university student. The sixth time they gave it to her (B1). She was so used to being denied, she was standing there and the interviewer had to tell her "go away, you're approved!"

[@juliemads4102]

I thought I was the only one who thought it this way

[@rozhinsamadi3217]

I was recently denied my f1 visa with my husband as f2 in qatar. Altough i answered the questions with confidence and clearly, i was stressed and couldn’t be relaxes and laugh and show my self confident. Im reapplying again but all i can say that being confident and calm and smiling is the best tip

[@RishiPatel-rm5nk]

I was denied 4 times in around 2008. Then I changed my plan and studied in Canada. From Canada I got approved but after finishing my studies. By mistake I said no where the form asks if your visa was denied previously,( I thought that is a country specific question so I said no) I was caught by the officer and I apologized and the visa officer said " Visa rejection is not a bad thing and you should not hide it from the officer". I sincerely apologized again and he said I am approving your visa. My intention was never to stay in the USA illegally anyway. I moved back to India and moved back to Canada again took the citizenship and now I can go to USA without visa to visit of course. now I am learning from your videos and help my clients who wants to visit USA.

[@NorKavon]

The visa interviewer has no time. In the experience of my friends they never ask questions, dont want any statements made etc. The purpose of the interview is to collect money and inform of denial. Cant convince someone who wont let you talk.

[@ZFvisa]

That’s why it’s really important to be prepared at the interview so you can be engaged and proactive!

[@NorKavon]

@ZFvisa and I might add the interviewee must be assertive and confident

[@sabinaorozco1393]

Even if you are prepared for the interview and complete requirements if they're not in the mood..all the people in line is denied....money money money of course

[@NorKavon]

I don't mean anything negative to the interviewer. Just pointing out the decision is 99% decided on the application alone before you even appear.

[@jackboxmeyer1830]

[@vgmfinancialservices1398]

During a visa interview, the officer's decision may not always align with factual information presented. Sometimes, even if you are correct, they may perceive you as incorrect and deny your visa. Conversely, if you make a mistake, they might still grant you the visa. To overcome the possibility of visa denial and increase your chances of success, it's essential to prepare thoroughly, present your case clearly, and demonstrate your eligibility convincingly during the interview.

[@ZFvisa]

Well said!

[@Firstlady_official1]

After watching KZbin, I'm feeling overwhelmed by the explanation of 214B for the first time. So, if I understand correctly, you're suggesting that we should thoroughly explain these aspects on our DS-160 form, especially for those who have been previously denied? It's like trying to convey our truth and clarify our intention not to overstay. Many applicants mistakenly focus on their sponsor instead of addressing the crucial point of convincing the presumption of not intending to stay permanently. It's quite a revelation, as many of us may have misunderstood this part, given that the reasons for denial aren't always clear. Overcoming this presumption requires a comprehensive summary on our DS-160 form. How does the visa officer manage to review everything? Does our application undergo processing before the interview day? I'll be studying this diligently day and night until I secure my visa. Having been denied three times, I now understand the reasons behind it. Your explanation deserves recognition! I AM CRYING 😢tears of joy 🤩

[@ZFvisa]

Thanks for the kind words! While you're correct that the DS-160 is important, it's at least as important that you're honest and forthcoming at your interview. Think about positive details you'd like the Visa Officer to know, and volunteer them. Reach out to us if you'd like our assistance in preparing - [e-mail].

[@kazimafzal]

How can my wife overcome 214b for a TD visa denial? The TD visa is specifically designed to allow dependents of TN visa holders to accompany or join them in the United States. The application of Section 214(b) in this context is incongruous with the visa's purpose, which inherently presumes a derivative right of entry for dependents.

[@ZFvisa]

it's hard to say without knowing more about your wife's specific circumstances. Send us an email to [e-mail], and we'll see how we might be able to help.

[@asghariarash]

A very ridiculous and meaningless paragraph. Everything is in the hands of the officer and they reject it for no reason. It's like a green card lottery and it's very lucky. On the one hand, they are looking for cultured and helpful people, and on the other hand, because they didn't sleep well at night, they will reject you in less than a few seconds. In my opinion, this decision-making method should be corrected.

[@ZFvisa]

It is an unusual process.

Absolutely not! In fact, prior travel - especially to the United States - is a fantastic way to prove to a visa officer that will will comply with a new visa if issued. Even travel to other countries can help establish a pattern of “good” travel behavior. This should not be a reason to deny a B1/B2 visa. Good luck!

[@ZFvisa]

There are no quotas (either for approval or rejection), except for certain immigrant visas which are subject to maximum caps each year. While embassies and consulates will vary by their approval/rejection rates, we do not recommend deciding where to apply based upon experiences of other applicants, as they may have circumstances and other factors that are very different from your own.

[@vijayitt6078]

Will previous visa refusals affect the outcome of the next visa interview? What will the officer think about the previous visa denials by the previous visa officer?

They will likely affect the next interview - all previous refusals and officer notes are visible to the next officer, so more refusals tend to lead to more questions. Preparation is crucial, so schedule a session with us at zfvisa.com, and we can help!

[@gilbertnail7266]

The problem is that it is so subjective. There is no way to overcome 214b if the consulate officer just refuses to apply logic. My girlfriend is a nurse. Every day she has offers from agencies to work in the United States. It defies logic to believe she would overstay a visa to work illegally when she could just get a work visa. She has been denied a tourist visa three times. She owns a new car. She owns property. She and I have been together for three years and have traveled to 10 countries together. She has a business here. The one thing she wants is to be with me and I am a permanent resident of the Philippines. We just want to visit my family in the US, then come HOME to the Philippines.

[@ZFvisa]

This can also largely depend on how the applicant presents their situation. If they don't adequately explain their job, situation at home, etc., the Visa Officer may erroneously conclude that they don't qualify. Preparation is crucial!

Sir, do visa officers have information about that student is having any scholarships or not like if someone lies that he got a scholarship of - amount then do the officers know that he is lying

[@ZFvisa]

Not generally, aside from the notes on the I-20 form. It's up to the student to explain these details.

Sir, I'm an indian..completed my bachelor degree in 2017 and i worked 2 years in the same field in India.. In 2019 i came to italy for my master degree.. Unfortunately i could not able to complete my degree in italy.. At the same time i got a full time job in different field.. Still I'm doing that.. Sir my question is.. Is it possible for me to do master degree in USA?..any chance for getting visa?.. Mainly I'm facing difficulties without a master degree here.. That's why i thought that i go to study.. Please reply me sir

[@ZFvisa]

There's certainly a possibility, but you'll need to be extra detailed in how you explain your decision to change fields and obtain another degree at this time. Take a look at our online student visa courses at www.zfvisaguides.com for more information.

Hello Sir/Mam I am Aashish From India i am trying to get an us visa for F-1 category but got rejected 3 times, 2 times from India and 1 time from singapore but in singapore my visa got expired and now i am trying to book and interview from malasiya but i am worried about it. I am changing countries because in India there have been so much waiting times and i am already too late for my further studies in the US could you help me or tell me is it safe to book and interview from 2nd third country?

[@ZFvisa]

We always recommend that you apply closest to home if possible, but since the wait times are long in India, it makes sense to apply elsewhere. Please send us an email to [e-mail], and we'll see if we can help you.

My F2 visa was rejected under 214(b), and now I'm trying for the second time.This time I want to do the interview in my native language (Tamil). Therefore , can I schedule an appointment in my native language and answer their questions in the native language ? Does this affect his chances of getting his visa approved ?

[@ZFvisa]

Most visa officers are trained to speak the local language, and they can sometimes enlist a local staff member to help translate if necessary. Speaking English is generally not a requirement for most visas (including an F2). If you’re interested, you may schedule a consultation with us at zfvisa.com, and we can help you prepare!

my previous b1/b2 application is denied under section 214 B this year in Chennai India and I am plaining to reapply next year from Delhi India. So, is it ok to change the us consulate? or better to try from same consulate?

It's always best to apply in the same place, but if there's a legitimate need to apply elsewhere, that's ok. Reach out to us at [e-mail] if you'd like your assistance to prepare before your next attempt.

​@@ZFvisaI get that you want people to opt for your service and solve people's problems on a case to case basis but at the same time, it would really be helpful if you are able to include some helpful tips or general reasons in your response to these comments. As it stands right now, I do not know if the reason for the rejection of this commenter is something minor which if kept in the reply, would be useful to a lot of people, or something unique for this commenter that requires them to opt for your service.

[@vradhakrishnachamarti2955]

can you buy a ticket to usa without visa to prove that you are going to return to India?

[@ZFvisa]

You can, but we generally don't advise this. If you're not approved, you may lose the deposit or whole price of the tickets. Discussing your plans is just as useful as showing pre-purchased tickets.

I got rejection today on 214b What i can do sir officer said to me that i am not sure u will come back to UK Actually i am a indian citizen and studying bachelor in UK 1st year done and now i am in second year

[@nancynjoki2218]

Do these officers even have time for questions? They ask one n hand over pink paper.... very unfair

[@reinafca4030]

How long does the consulate keep people information after denial?

[@ZFvisa]

A record of a denial remains indefinitely. That's why it's very important to fully prepare for your first interview, and if you do face a denial, never lie about it!

[@reinafca4030]

Thank you so much for answering. Is it possible for a person to request for his immigration record from the consulate?

[@Zubair-Vlogss]

I tried as much as I could to explain to the visa officer that o have to come back to my home country to finish my degree program because I'm in my second year but still the guy said have no enough to ties to my home country and he denied me

Visa Officers have wide discretion to deny visa applications under 214(b) - that's why preparing for your interview is so crucial. Schedule a consultation with us at zfvisa.com, and we'll help you put your best foot forward!

All the applications are decided before the interview. Any ex visa officer giving you lectures is only lying.

[@ZFvisa]

Thanks for your comment! It’s precisely this type of misinformation we are trying to correct. Application decisions are absolutely NOT made before the interview, and it’s important to prepare, answer all questions truthfully to improve your chance of success.
