US B1/B2 Visa Questions

[canada2024__]

I heard that RTD holders get visa rejection without pr, but am not sure that officers are friendly or not for RTD holders. Also if I have family in us officers they will not satisfied

they ask more questions, that is for sure but I do not say they stand back. they have access to your info in Canada. try to be honest and give them the address you have for your family member in US. I did that too and said that I am going to visit them. and got 10 years visa. do not worry just be honest and clear. they also asks for pr, you can explain them that you are about to get it

The only caveat is that getting a visa is more challenging in general under Trump government. All people can do is show ties to Canada like job and home, proof of funds and reason for travel. The US immigration policy isn’t necessarily logical or reasonable at the moment so if denied wouldn’t take it personally.

If we talk about property ties, most people don’t have property ties unless car, specially for newcomers. But if they consider work and study ties which is good. I try to research and us Toronto embassy gave huge b1/b2 visas approved. But as I read on this group chat who got US visa they have valid visa on origin passport.

Any posts before this spring/summer are likely no longer relevant. Things like a property lease can be used to show ties to Canada. Not having a precious US B1/B2 are not grounds for a refusal. In general having an extensive travel record to certain countries typically helps getting a B1/B2 but that is also typically accompanied with strong finances and good employment record which also helps get approval for B1/B2. All you can do is present your current profile and hope for the best. You can’t change the fact that you didn’t have previous B1/B2.

Did you know someone who got approved without pr and who has no previous us visa?

Sure there are examples but have not been following approval patterns under Trump other than seeing more refusal in general.

Ohhh okay

Would suggest preparing the strongest application possible with proof of your ties to Canada (employment, property lease/ownership, etc.), proof of funds, reason for travel, etc. and then it is up to US whether they grant you the visa. Given current administration it will be more difficult to visit the US in general and countries are able to determine whether they want to grant someone a visa even if it doesn’t always make sense. Wouldn’t take it personally. If refused this time it doesn’t mean you will never be able to visit the US. It may take a bit longer but it should happen eventually.
