US Contact Information

Hi guys need some advice to reapply US B1/B2 visa. I am single, no depandant. I was rejected on April 2019 and would like to reapply next month, will it be too soon?
And for the US contact information, i previously filled in my friend's name and will stay at his place during the visit. As i read lot of blogs mentioned it's better not to mention any person you know in the states, what should i do? if i dont put his name would they think i trick them? and they would ask what about your friend? What is the best to answer them? Any suggestion on what should i do next with this second attempt? How do you guys thik my chances of getting approve this second time?

Answer truthfully.

Are you really going to stay at his place? If yes, write that. If not, don't.

Will you be really staying in the hotel? If yes, write that.

Trying to figure out the best answer hoping for the best results in visa approval will actually hurt your chances.

Okay, Thanks for your kind response. I am purely go for tourism but due to the first denial i am kind of trauma. I was being honest and fill in the contact but it is on the contrary hurt the chances. So i want to figure out whether there is a better way to fill in DS 160.

If there are no changes in circumstances since you applied earlier, then the result won't change either.

Your rest all things looks good for the tourist visa.

Circumstances such as marital status?
How travel history effect the chances? I only travel to South East Asia which does not require visa.

Yes, it is also a positive sign that after your tourism purpose you have a family to go back in your home country.

Yes, it shows that you are a travel freak & would really be interested in just visiting places around the world & finally going back to home country.
