I think your passport should be valid for 6 months from the date you apply for visa.

Good Luck to you bro! I got my PR too and tried to apply for a US Tourist visa last month...but the embassy turned me down...The interviewer told me "Your only a PR holder and not a citizen's yet" I will not give you a visa for now...I supposed to argue or say something but most people to told me don't argue or else you'll still be denied the next time...

tnx! for the reply..what other question did they ask you?when i exit in montana the officer told me that if i want to go to u.s it will be easy for me to get a tourist visa...if i may ask, what did you tell them the purpose of your trip to US? i wonder why they didn't grant you a visa..thanks again!

by the way nice nickname namiss ko tuloy ang balut.hehehe

That's the only question they asked me...The purpose of my trip as i written down in my application is to visit my relatives....Well I guess it depends on the timing and the consul who gonna do the interview...

- Each and every case is different. If you have confidence I will recommend just apply and go ahead. You will never know the result unless you try.
