What to fill as present employer

[ManojMaha]

I have accepted offer letter from XYZ company. My joining is after one month. The company wants to send me to US for 2 weeks training immediately after joining. Can I fill this company as my present employer in DS 160 even if my joining is after 1 month ? If yes, then what should be start date of employment ? Start date should be less than todays date.

Your information mentioned in DS160 should be true on the date of interview - so try to schedule the interview on the day you join that company & mentioned the company name as your present employer.

when should I apply again ?

Unless, there is any change in the circumstances - reapplying won't change the result.

After rejection under section 214 B what should I Improve/what should I say at the time of interview?

Need to know, what could have caused this. Since you earlier had the visa - did you anyway misused it? like overstay, working on tourist visa, got paid by US employer etc. etc.

After Rejection what should I mention for below Two Question in DS-16 form ?

Has your U.S. Visa ever been cancelled or revoked ?

No, your valid visa was never cancelled or revoked - it expired naturally.

Have you ever been refused a U.S. visa , or been refused admission to the united States, or withdrawn your application for Admission at the port of entry ?

Yes, you have 2 refusals - do not hide it
