    True. They never look at my documents. They just ask me what I do for a living and why I’m going to the US. Very short answer. That’s how I was given a visa. Most importantly don’t lie.

    But if God says yes, nobody can say no.
  • I remember as a teenage exchange student back in 2005, my visa officer asked me, "So you a student, huh? What subject do you like studying at school?" I told them I love everything, but my top picks are science, math and any language subjects... "Is that so, why'd you like languages?" she said. I answered I just love them, perhaps cuz I came from a family that is multicultural... "Alright kiddo. Do great things when you're in US okay?" That just stuck with. My first visa experience.

    Thanks for confirming what I suspected for a long time.. deciding ViSA based on 30sec- 3 min interviews not bothering to check documents. you realize how ridiculous that is and how many legit cases you likely rejected? As for fake docs those can be cross checked and can be asked before interview for background checks. Still I would like to thank you for being so candid about the process.

    ...and in one video you decoded something I have spent a year and a half trying to understand. Thank you for this excellent information.
  • I know people that doesn’t have anything no money no property and they obtain the visa I think depends a lot of the moods of those people called officers “many are rude and arrogant !!!

    I am now a JAmerican (Jamaican with US citizenship). Previously when applied for a visa and went for teh interview I noticed three windows. One did not give a visa to anyone. One gave a visa to every 5th person and the other gave a visa to everyone. I concluded that everything is decided each day even before they start interviewing people. I agree with everything you are saying but why ask people to get all these documents when it makes no difference. In some countries, people have to pay a lot to get all these records and documents. And the funny thing is that in a lot of cases you give visas to criminals, scammers, murderers etc. and innocent people are denied.
  • Visa Approved today at window 27, thank you Lord 🙏 Thank you for this video ♥️

    Took the officer just 3 minutes to deny my son a visa . She cut short his explanation and simply said , "your visa is denied , you can reapply ". He was never ever interested in going to the US but a job offer here in india for which the company was sponsoring his training made him apply . It has only harden his dislike of going to the US . 😅

    Getting a US visa is like getting a graduate diploma -- there's some money to spend and papers to submit beforehand, but the true test is an oral assessment.

    ❤❤❤❤ the voice is so soothing and a stress buster i wish i discovered the channel long ago.

    My wife had a very different experience. We had prepared adequate (according to us, of course) document as required, but she was asked to furnished a lot more extra documents, like husband's bank account, husband's birth cert, husband's salary slips for last 6 months.... in a very RUDE way. We eventually made another appointment a week later and was approved by a very pleasant lady officer almost immediately without looking at extra documents. I took note of the rude officer and reported to the US visa office. They acknowledged my complaint but no further progress.
  • @worldtour7551
    You are absolutely correct , I got my visa and it’s like same they took interview in my case.
  • I don't care about the visa but i could listen to her all day. Her voice is so feminine and soothing
  • It is all on the mood of the person taking the interview. I have received UK visas on a regular basis without any glitches ally life BUT the US department asked me to come back with some unrelated documents and I never reapplied for that country. There are so many other beautiful and friendly countries that are cheaper and have a better immigration policy

  • The trick start when you fill your application form, they ask you many questions, if not consinstan in your aswers año algorithm program inmediatly determine yes or no. The visa Officer, knows that, simple as that.
