Today we are going to talk about a very important topic that likely you have encountered at one point or another and that is myths about applying for a US visa or US immigration in general. Because there are many misconceptions about applying for a US visa, Green Card, or US immigration in general, we are going to split these topics into multiple parts and there will be multiple videos about the misconception about US visas.

Misconceptions about applying for a US visa at US consulates and embassies abroad:

👉 You need to know someone at the US consulate or embassy to get a visa. False!
You do not need to know anyone at the US consulates and embassy to get a visa. The US consular officer and the staff is only reviewing your visa application based on the qualification on your visa application that you submitted to the consulate or embassy and your visa interview. Your application is reviewed under US law and in fact, the US law prohibits consular officers and embassy officials to provide an official assistance to visa applicants. Knowing somebody at the US consulate or embassy will not help you with your visa application because this is prohibited by US law.

👉 US consulate and embassy will only accord visas to rich people. False!
The US consular officer and embassy officials review your visa application to see if you meet the legal requirements for the type of visa you applied for. In doing so, consular officers are trained to review each visa application individually and review the facts you presented during your visa interview and your specific circumstances, your travel plans, your financial resources, your ties to your home country, and other pertinent information. However, the consular officers will not decide on a visa application strictly based on the person's financial status.

👉The applicant's visa was refused because the consular officers did not properly review the documents submitted and the interview was too short. False!
The documents you submit with your application and the length of the interview are less important to the consular officer than the actual information you provide in your application and interview. The consular officers are trained to look for pertinent issues during your application process and at the interview. In general, interviews are not very long unless it is necessary to have a longer interview. The counselor officers are trained to interview as many people as possible and maximize the time and not trained to have this longer interview to determine and make a decision on your visa application. The facts in your visa application and interview are more important than the documents submitted with your application or the length of the interview.
