They will be questioned with regards to their ties to their country of residence and also with their reason to visit the US.

hi,my fil got the visa,my mother on law was given a refusal worksheet,stating further administrative processing,passport in in the consulate,what are the chances of getting the visa?was told it could take upto 3 to 4weeks to make a decision.
 
Refusal = 214(b)
Not ready to adjudicate = 212(g)

Which one did you mother-in-law get?

none of the above,just x on the other,it says additional administrative processing,passport has been retained by the consulate
 
b1/b2

thanxs for the information,how long does it take for the consulate to reply,and what are the chances
 
That depends on how long the US consulate has to wait for an agency to get back to them. In such cases, it is usually the US consulate waiting for a federal agency in Washington DC to clear an applicant.

reason being alien did not satisfy the requirements of the labour certification,although the labour certification was approved on the basis of experience,it was based on a semi skilled eb 3.did appeal the decision,but not within the specified period given for appeals.now it,s been 10years from the initial approval of the petition.now if i do apply for a b1/b2 vvisa do i need to mention that i was petitioned before,or someone did apply for a petition on my behalf to immigrate?
 
If the form asks the question, you reply truthfully.

50% chances not good enough,how can i convince them that i am coming back after a holiday,may be in the form of keeping a security bond or any other suggestions,need advice.
 
Not good enough? You do realise that visiting the US for non-citizens is a privilege granted and not a right?

Having said that, all you can do is provide as much documentation as possible showing financial and social ties to your country of residence. Keep in mind, you can provide such proof, but that does not mean the consul may look at it. He/she may look at it and yet remain uncovinced. The consul has complete discretion at making that decision. By law you will be an intending immigrant and the burden of proof that you are not one, lies on you.

I know this sounds harsh but that is the way the law is worded.
