hello all.
My application for B1 visa got rejected today. I have no clue why. The interview was as follows:
VO: Good morning mam
Me: Good morning sir
VO: Why do you want to go to the US?
Me: Sir I want to go to the US to attend a conference
VO: You have been working in @#%% organisation for how long?
Me: 11 months
VO: What is your annual salary?
Me:$%$ lakh per annum
VO: Have you traveled outside India before?
Me: No sir
VO: Who will be paying for the conference/trip?
Me: It will be sponsored by the company, stated company name
VO: Why did you company choose you for this conference/
Me: There was an internal assessment done. Based on that they chose mi.
VO: How many people work in your company?
Me: @#$ Told him that there are two offices and gave the approx number of employees.
VO: I am sorry but right now we cannot issue you a visa. You can apply later. Handed me back my passport with form 214(b)
I am planning to reapply soon. Can any one guide me where I went wrong? The VO never asked me for any documents or an invitation letter. How can I ensure that my visa will be approved the next time? How long should I wait before reapplying?
