Hi,
I recently applied for renewal of my B1/B2 visa and was granted drop box submission.
However after 5 working days I was called for an interview at Kolkata and was denied visa under section 214b.
I was not given any details, but was told that I do not qualify for this visa.

C: "Pause... Looking at the computer... Sorry, you do not qualify for this type of Visa.
I don't understand what went wrong, i checked online but couldn't find reasons for refusal relevant to my case;
I don't have any intentions to stay back in the US as i have a well settled business here. I'm married, i have a family, none of the family members were accompanying me to the US.
What are the chances if i reapply, as it is very important for me to travel for this training.
