Going to attend a conference but I faced a refusal !!!!
Hi
I'm an Egyptian doctor working in KSA for 8 months
so I applied in Jeddah (KSA)
and I have to attend to a conference in Chicago
I planned to take my wife with me for tourism also
And the interview was as follow:
he: what are you working?
me: I'm a doctor( and i specified my degree and specialty)
he: where are u working?
me: (i mentioned and it is a respectable well known governmental hospital in KSA)
he: for how long you are in KSA?
me: for me its 8 months
he: and your wife?
me and she : 6 months
he: did you traveled together anywhere before?
me: yes we went to Spain last year for our honeymoon
he:do you have any first degree relatives in USA?
me: no
he: do you have any other relatives in USA?
me:no
he: (repeating and directing the question to my wife) do you have in relatives in USA?
she: (becoming irritable ) yes my cousin is there she is making diplomat at Boston University
(and actually we didn't mention that cousin in the application)
he:(asking me again)do you have any relatives in KSA?
me:yes my brother and sister
he:actually we cannot offer you US visa as you aren't Saudi or neutralized Saudi.
me: but I have a conference and i have to attend
he :whatever the cause , it isn't possible now and he gave me the 214b refusal paper
and he didn't even ask about the bank statement, HR letter or the invitation for the conference.
i think its the mistake about my wife's cousin
and if so, can i apply again? either only for me only or with my wife, which is better? as attending this conference is essential for me
if i applied again for myself only, do i have to mention my wife"s cousin as a relative for me in the application ?
