With respect to the agency's involvement found through my texts, I genuinely sought their assistance for mock interviews and documentation support to ensure a smooth transition. My reference to offering a token of appreciation for there guidance in the form of chocolate was meant to convey a light-hearted gesture and not to trivialize the situation. They started to mock me while answering. Also took my picture in his personal phone by a male officer and started to make fun of me for my honest answer. I understand the gravity of the immigration process and did not intend to undermine it.

What agency? An employment agency? Yeah, that would get you deported. To whom were you offering chocolate? To the employment agency referenced in your texts or to the CBP? If the latter, you've got yourself a lifetime ban.

I think the Agency is something back in India.

 

And the Chocolate was at the Port of Entry, now I am going to have difficulty believing that could be construed a bribe but no doubt did not help with everything else going on.

No I just uploaded that to understand you what was the situation that happened which made my visa get revoked. As I have all legitimate documents required why can't I be provided another opportunity. Have I convicted that big crime? Like you are all replying that there is no option at all. If such situations happen one day no international will suggest to study abroad. And I don't know why CBP officers act brutal.

Brutal?  Now that sounds like a bit of an exaggeration.

 

CBP has the final say for admission of ANY person at the border, regardless of what visa or documentation they present.

 

Acting entitled won't get you far.  You have to follow the rules, have your funding and housing in order well before arriving at the US border, and agree to the terms of the visa (i.e. not working, not immigrating).  Also, you're 100% responsible for the content of the DS-160, and for understanding your own visa process.

Yes.  Strange and inappropriate for that setting.

It could be construed as such though. A bribe doesn't have to be substantial - all it takes is the intent, regardless of how naïve the expectation may be. In my DMV there's a warning saying that ANY form of a gift to the officers, including trivial holiday presents and such, will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I'd assume the CBP is similar in this respect.

Seems there are no end of other issues. Seemingly she was deported so that is pretty much end of the story.

Regardless, you were decided to have the wrong visa at your POE.  There are many questions that you have failed to address/answer surrounding the circumstances at your POE.  Please answer such questions as:  what did the officer say?  Were you allowed to withdraw your visa?  Were you placed in expedited removal?  You stated you were deported.  You were either denied entry or removed, since you were not admitted.  Have you ever been deported?

I was deported with expedite removal. That was first visit to my usa. The CBP officer reason for my removal was given as I didn't pay my firs year tution fee, which was supposed to pay after orientation day suggested by college advisor and I didn't had rent agreement as my College senior said he would provide in hand. So this made them suspicious. What they said to me is this.

So you never withdrew your visa?

I request here to one and all please help me with this issue. If you know any lawyers in usa or any of your relatives or friends is a best immigration lawyer please do make me contact with him. I have worked hard for 3 years to build a professional profile to get a admit in us university parallely working and studying for gre exams. But all within a minute that effort collapsed at poe. How fare is this. I have all legitimate documents, I20 and 1.5 times the funding mentioned in I20. I have not asked any off campus and on campus jobs in texts. What else is required. I have no illegal intentions.

If you are issued an expedited removal order, the typical consequence is a five-year ban from reentry.
