Please help...221(g) visa rejection

hi

I have been rejected visa under 221(g). The letter given by the Consular officer says "221(G). If failed to take action in 1 year the visa will be parmanently rejected as in 223(g) section 212(A) 6th C. See DSL 851 a for further details.

I got a bank statement from a consultant (who took large money) with six months of transactions, but the account on my name exists only for the last four months in that bank. I overlooked this major issue and went for visa interview. The consular office after verifying my bank statement stated it as forged document and denied visa under 221(g).

Can anybody help me to solve this issue. I am not familiar with this kind of fraud issues. I believed in my consultant. This is the first time I have done anything fake and I am already paying for that. I am working in a MNC in Hyderabad from last three years, and I am afraid I cannot get even H1 visa if my company applies for it in future (and then my company wil lknow that I have done something fraud). Moreover I may not even be able to visit USA in future on any kind of visa.

What can I do now. Should I see a lawyer. Can I reapply and show them a genuine bank loan this time to overcome the refusal.

I came to know that the Consular officer stamps or writes 221(g) on the last page of the passport. But my passport is clear from such writing or stamp. Why doesn't he written the same in my passport?

I just want the bad remark to be gone on my name as a fraud. So that there will be no prblem in future. Anybody please help me.

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Your post is not very clear on bank statement
and who is this consultant? did you applied for Visitor visa ? or work visa ?

what did your counsular officer asked you in the interview? and what does letter 221G says?

does your consultant gave you bank statement for last six months ?
 
I applied for student visa.

I opened an account in a local bank in march and deposited amount legally. But an employee of the bank told me they are asking for 6 months transactions and gave the bank statement with transactions from last six months. Six months back my account doesn't even exist.

When the consular office verified this with bank it was found that account is from march only, and how can transact from January. So he found it as forged document.

The bank statement is given by an employee of the bank, who was referred by a consultancy.

Questions asked by the consular officer:

How are you going to support your expenses?
A: My father sponsering me
Can I see your financial documents?
A: I showed the bank statement.
Can I verify your account with the bank? If it is found not legal you may be subjected to permanant rejection.

Your post it clearly says that you did give that bank statement to counselor knowing that you did not had account since january. I am sure you knew what can happen if you give that statement.

I do not see if anything can be done now.
if you would be honest and told counselor that you have account from march only and you just give statement from march only then it would be diffrent story and may be counselor would have considered your honesty and issue you a visa.

you can not blame this on your consultant for this since you are a edjucated person.

Consultant a good lawyer and see what he is advising . personaly I do not see any options that will clean your passport .
