Here was the case for my aunt in Mexico,

she is an early 70 year old
owns property in Mexico, (HOME, and small land)
Bank account
My mother is an American Citizen ... so proud of her. (her sister)
has never had problem with the law anywhere.
has never entered the U.S.

I want her to visit the U.S. for about a month. visit places here in California i.e Disneyland.

my cousin is a Resident Alien by law and also her husband is an U.S. citizen
they sent a letter of petition I believe over there don't know the specifics.
******************************

well unfortunately she was denied .

....

what I heard from the interview by word of mouth ................

is that my aunt did not mention my MOM or even acknowledge she existed . In addition she was not able to Say (it was on paper) the address of my cousin. plus I was told that there where not noticeable family ties (nexus) with her application.

Was this a mistake, did my aunt fail this test because she did not say anything about her sister ( U.S. citizen naturalized).

Also does having me and my sister US citizens count for points on her favor. at least by mentioning us both.

NOTE this is for a Tourist visa. thanks

Should we reapply in about 1 year?

I love this country and that's the reason I want her to be here, so she can experience the U.S.A.

更新1:

PLEASE note that my cousin is Not her daughter.... she has her mother living in mexico. this is a separate aunt thanks ps Ventura, CA rocks... want to go to the two trees

✔ 最佳答案

The two components of a visitor's visa are:

1) strong ties to Mexico
2) no ties to the United States.

With plenty of family in the United States, the consular officer was obviously not sure that your aunt would not want to stay in the United States. Then, by not being truthful about her family in the US, she most likely got an entry for "misrepresentation," perhaps even "material misrepresentation." A misrepresentation becomes material if the fact, had it been known to the adjudicating officer, would have changed the outcome of the decision.

There's nothing to lose in applying again next year, but it's not very likely that your aunt will get a visa unless she can convince the consular officer that she has no reason to overstay.

First, only the person who wants a tourist visa can apply, and your aunt must fully qualify for the visa on her own merits. She must prove she has sufficient funds of her own for all typical tourist expenses. And she must prove her ties to her own country compel her to return home promptly.

She has relatives in the US, which constitute "ties" to the US. Worse, she failed to disclose the presence, status, addresses, etc, of all relatives in the US - misstatement of fact or failure to disclose relevant facts constitutes visa fraud. She won't get a visa now. Go visit your aunt in her country.

Your aunt made a mistake when she failed to disclose all of her close family members in the US. Given that she has an adult daughter who is a green card holder, your aunt is considered to be at high risk of overstaying to wait for her daughter to naturalize and then file for her mom to adjust status. Unless circumstances change, there is no point in re-applying. You can thank tens of millions of other immigrants who entered with tourist visas and overstayed for your aunt's difficulty in getting a tourist visa for herself.
