USA Visa: Using my refugee travel document

[seantimba]

HI @Simba112

I have a Canadian RTD and still waiting to be granted PR but I have a job offer in the USA will l be able to get a work visa in the US?

I thought “zulubia” mentioned about abusing US visa and cross illegal to Canada. I want to believe, abused means overstay.. if that is the case then they will raise this during interview

Hello, when I was in the US with a visitor visa in 2019, I crossed the illegal border to Canada to seek asylum. My refugee claim was accepted and now I have a refugee travel document. I really want to visit my friends in the US again but I am scared to apply for visa since I abused my first visa and left the country illegally.
I was wondering if there is anyone with the same experience as mine and applied for visa?

Hi, i am wondering if you were issued the visa? How did the interview go? I have a friend in the same situation and is very nervous.

Pretty unlikely to be granted because you have minimal ties to your home country and would permanently close pathways to Canadian citizenship and PR for most so incredibly risky unless you are happy to return to your home country.

What are you talking about? I asked a question specific to Zulubia post.

Apologize this was meant in response to @seantimba but that seems pretty evident given that I also responded to that post at the same time.

Unless a recent decision under the current administration would be pointless to compare. Under Biden there was mixed outcomes and was also dependent on previous immigration history and ties to Canada.
