visa rejections

Consular officers can only issue visas nonimmigrant to those who qualify under the laws of the United States. A visa may be rejected for several reasons under the Immigration and Nationality Act.For example, your visa application may be denied if you have a criminal record, if you lie during your interview or if you have lived illegally in the United States. Below is a brief explanation of the most common types of rejection. For additional information on visa refusals, Please see page State Department Travel.A consular officer will inform you always the visa applicant of the reasons for refusal in writing.

Important Note: There is no process of appeal or review for a visa refusal. However, visa applicants may reapply at any time following the instructions in the How to Apply for a Visa. Section 214 (b)Most refusals of nonimmigrant are based on Section 214 (b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of the United States. Visa applicants outweigh the presumption immigrant under Section 214 (b) to demonstrate their general circumstances, both social and family, economic and other ties with Colombia require them to leave the United States after their temporary visit ends. "Links" all the different aspects are considered of life that bind the visa applicant with Colombia, such as family relationships, employment and property.

Because each applicant's situation is different, there is no single factor that proves a link with Colombia.The most common reason for a visa applicant not qualify to receive it is not showing sufficient ties to their home country; however there are other reasons why a person can not qualify for nonimmigrant status and therefore to be found inadmissible under Section 214 (b). The applicant must demonstrate that he or she meets the requirements established for the type of visa you are applying for. In other words, the applicant must demonstrate that activities to be undertaken during their stay in the United States are consistent with immigrant status you requested.

A visa refusal under Section 214 (b) is not permanent. Visa applicants may apply at any time following the instructions on the How to Apply for a Visa. However, we recommend that you do so only if they believe they can show who are eligible to receive a visa based on the requirements provided in the aforementioned page. That is, we recommend not applying for a visa again if your family, professional or economic situation has not changed enough to warrant a change in the decision of the consular officer.

If the letter informs the visa applicant to the Embassy will contact you once an "administrative process" ends this means that the visa applicant need not make any additional procedure. The Embassy will contact you directly once you have completed the administrative process. Most of these processes are answered within 90 days after the date of the interview, but in some cases it may take longer. You can check the status of your application, following the instructions found on our website Application Status.
