Has anyone successfully applied for B1/B2 or C1/D from a country outside Canada like maybe the Bahamas? I have a PR in Canada and not having a US visa is severely restricting my options to get a job as a pilot, and the interview wait times in Canada aren't helping.

 

For background info, I was in living in a country where wait times were much lower, and I knew I would run into this issue once I moved to Canada. So I tried to apply for the visas there before moving here. The officer rejected the application at the time saying that I would have to apply here in Canada after settling here and with a company letter when I get hired. This is perfectly reasonable but now I'm in Canada and struggling to find a job because how can I get any company to wait for me for 700+ days to get a visa to travel to US for training?

 

What are my possible options? Any suggestions?

What is your home country? And whereabouts in Canada are you? Vancouver is only 48 days for a C1/D interview.
