Hi all,
I applied for the H-1B1 visa two weeks ago at the US consulate in Singapore, I have a job offer from a company in the states. Their lawyers provided me with a package to submit when I went for the interview appointment. However, my visa was refused... I only found out afterwards that I needed to show proof of ties to my home country in order to get an approval. My lawyers and I did not include any of those documents in my package...
I'm not sure if reapplying and getting a second refusal will take away any and all chances of entering the US on any kind of visa... I will be able to show financial and social ties to Singapore for my second application.
I was wondering if anyone here has reapplied for the same H-1b1 visa, and got approved the second time? And what the difference may have been between your two submissions.
I still need to return to the states because I am still renting an apartment there and need to go back if not to apply for the h-1b1 through the USCIS or to pack my things and prepare for departure. Does anyone have advice on whether I should apply for the B1 or B2 visa? Also if I should take my chances with the Visa Waiver Program since I qualify to apply for it.
Thanks so much.
