Applying for a visit visa for a foreign nation can get tricky at times, especially when the country for which visa application has been made is the United States of America, which has various standards established by law for visa clearance. The law of the United States requires visa applicants to be interviewed by the Consulate or the US Embassy that reviews the relevant information provided by the applicant upon which the visa application is approved or denied.

According to the US immigration and visa law guidelines, if the applicant is unable to establish his or her eligibility, the visa application may be denied. There are various grounds based on which the visa application may be refused, such as the application not meeting the requirements of a particular visa category, or other grounds of denial as stated under the Immigration and Nationality Act.
 

What to do if the visa has been denied for the second time?

In most cases when the application for a visit visa has been denied, the applicant is notified about the reason for the disqualification of his application. The consular also advise if the applicant may apply for a waiver of the ground of disqualification. However, if you haven’t been so advised by the consulate, you should review your application and your US immigration history thoroughly in order to find out the reasons for your visa refusal.

Visa rejections can be overcome by submitting additional information by the applicant that can establish his eligibility. You can reapply for the visa by submitting additional information which you believe was lacking in your previous application and would help the visa officer to decide in your favor. However, the discretion to decide the eligibility of the applicant is up to the consular officer at US embassies based on the merits of each case.

You can also ask for a reconsideration of the visa application. Moreover, anyone seeking an immigrant and non-immigrant visa can ask for a waiver, which is available in certain limited situations. It is advisable to take the help of an experienced immigration lawyer as this is a complicated area of law.
