H4B Visa- Strange Situation

[pawan2k]

Hi
My wife has H4B visa scheduled in Dec. I am worried for her visa, as she has been denied UK visa once. My question is:
1. Does rejection of UK visa anyway effects US dependent visa?

2. Does US consulate have any way to know that UK visa has been rejected(More specifically do UK and US consulates share some kind of common information at all )?

Thanks a lot for all your inputs.

---- NO, it does not

2. Does US consulate have any way to know that UK visa has been rejected(More specifically do UK and US consulates share some kind of common information at all )?

---- Only a rejection stamp of UK visa on the Passport will enable them to know about that. Otherwise there is no need for anyone to know this information. No one can point out what information the UK and US Consulates share. That is a totally different subject

Thanks a lot subramanya! she already has got a new passport since then, so there is no rejection stamp from UK. Hopefully this will help too.

---- Remember getting new Passport does not solve this issue of rejection. One country is not concerned about a visa rejection and or approval for another country. Both are independent constitutional entities.

I do not know how you got the opinion in the above matter. Do you have any proof or evidence for this matter like an official document or is it pure speculation and hearsay from friends, relatives and others
