I have applied for USA Tourist Visa but was rejected immediately after the interview.
Meanwhile, I have applied for the Working Holiday Visa (IEC) of Canada, and wait for the approval by the Canadian Government.
I hope to spend some time to visit USA if I can work in Canada.
However, I have a criminal record. The offence is about threatening, which is equivalent to the Criminal Code of s264.1 under Canadian law.
I have declared the criminal record in the USA visa application. During the visa interview, the consular officers asked my criminal history. Then they rejected my application immediately after i answered a few questions in about 1~2 minutes. Also, I was not allowed to apply for the Waiver of Ineligibility (but quite a lot of visa applicants with criminal records can do so)
However, under Canadian visa law, a person who has convicted of this offence can apply for rehabilitation 5 years after the completion of sentence. If the rehabilitation is approved, this person will no longer be inadmissible permanently and will be treated as a visitor with no criminal record.
Do you think the USA consular officers rejected my visa application mainly due to the criminal record? Or because the Working Holiday Visa of Canada has not been approved? If the Working Holiday visa is approved, will the USA consular officers change the visa decision immediately?
Do you suggest me to apply for USA Visitor Visa immediately once the Working Holiday visa of Canada is approved?
I don't want to provide my conviction details here. If you want to know more, please send me your ********, ******** or Wechat ID so that you can talk with me privately.
