Hi,

Plz, help me as to why my sister who applied for visit visa to USA asked at the interview about how and when did my husband and I came.to usa. My husband came as a student married here n stayed whereas I came on a visit after marriage as i already had a visit visa and then we applied for AOS here in USA. My sister answered the same. 

My sister was denied visit after these questions. Was there something wrong with this??? Plz advise

 

 

Also are there any lawyers who can help with visit visa from uae so she is not denied again

~~ Topic moved to Tourist Visa forum as this is about a tourist visa ~~
 

Because they didn’t abide by the terms and conditions of their visas. The visas were granted to them because they had to show that they intend to return to their home country after the studies / visiting as a tourist which they did not do. They believe your sister will do the same and she probably did not have strong ties to her home country.

No. Lawyers cannot do anything to guarantee an approval, especially for a non immigrant tourist visa

1. Did your husband know his former spouse before he applied for his student visa?

2. Are your husband and you from the same country?

There are lawyers will accept her money, but I have never heard of a lawyer having any effect in this situation.

If its just for a visit visa to visit you, then why do you make this sound so urgent and so important, and want to get a lawyer involved? You can just do a zoom call or something. Why do you sound so desperate and begging for help?

 

It is quite obvious why the embassy rightfully denied her the visa. The consular already knew the answer to the questions and was being nice to you by indirectly telling you why you are not eligible for a tourist visa.

Basically the IO wasn't convinced your sister will return to her home country after visiting due to obvious reasons.

No lawyer is going to move the needle on this one. Your sister can always try again if circumstances change.

They saw the pattern of people who came in on non-immigrant visas and adjusted status in the US (both you and your husband did this), so they assumed that she will do the same (suddenly 'meet' a USC and get married)

The phrase “immigrant intent” is used in the discussion of American visas and is an important concept in U.S. immigration law. If you are requesting a visa to visit the United States for short-term purposes, you need to understand that the U.S. government will always assume that you have an immigrant intent. If you want them to approve the visa, you’ll generally need to demonstrate that you do not have immigrant intent.

Your sister could not prove she would return to her home country as demonstrated by the way you and your husband used the system to bypass normal immigration

The Consulate Officer saw an undesirable pattern in your family's visa history.   No attorney can help.

I contributed to your previous post when you said she had a visa and that your parents are immigrating. Have they moved?

Because you and your husband both violated the terms of your visas. It is reflected upon family will do the same. So they will not be issued a visa. An attorney cannot so anything but take your money.

No.  No one has a 'right' to a visit visa.  DOS did not err when they denied her.

Hi no that is another sister who isn't married...yes they got the green card and already travelled once on it. 

The sister I am referring to is married and has a kid. She just wants to visit as we both have kids now and feel that we should meet often so kids know us our families

Well, you'll have to travel there I guess, as I don't see them getting visitor visas with your family history of adjusting status on nonimmigrant visas.

 

If you become a citizen, you can petition your sibling.

I assem the OP is a USC, have you sponsored your Sister to immigrate?
