How to apply for 84 year old Uncle?

[charansidhu5]

Hi All,
My Uncle(My sister's Ftaher-in-law) went for a Visitor Visa interview today. I was sponsoring him. His visa was rejected on the grounds that he dosent strong ties back home.But the interview officer didnt asked him a single question on his family or property in india.He only asked who is sponsoring you, why do you want to go to US and then handed him the rejestion letter.
My questions are:

1.) Should he again go for the visa interview and if yes what documents should he take with him?
2.) One of the attendants said to my uncle who is 84yr old that he need not come himself for the visa interview but didnt explain what's the alternative
He said this before my uncle went to Visa officer

Can some body tell me if there is a separate way for old age people to apply rather than visiting in person and if yes can my uncle use that method after his visa being rejected the first time?

Thanks
Charan Sidhu

1. Read https://www.immihelp.com/usa-visa-re...lication-tips/
2. People 80 years and above need not attend personal interview. Read https://www.immihelp.com/us-visa-application-procedure/ However, as your uncle has been rejected visa, he can't use the drop box.

Not sure, why did he appear for the interview in the first place as he is 84 years old and people 80 or above are exempt from the interview is what I thought.
