Interview query - denied entry question

[dai2000 0]

Hi all,

In 2005 I was denied entry to the US on account of the fact that could not show strong enough ties to the UK. I was later allowed to fly a few days later when I showed proof of a job to return to, enough money, etc.

Now, my question is - we have been totally honest on our I-129F submission. I stated on there that I was once denied entry on these grounds. I also ticked the appropriate box on one of the forms I submitted. Will I be specifically asked about this?

Is it a scenario that has happened to other people here? What sort of questions where you asked at the interview about it?

Does anyone have any opinions or advice on this?

I've seen this come up a quite a few times on these boards. Yes, they are likely to ask you about the denial, but, no, it won't cause you any problems. Just be honest as you have been all along. Lots of people are denied at POE for similar reasons, and it isn't a big deal.

what are classed as strong ties.

what are classed as strong ties.

Stong ties would be- Employment or letter from your Employer, Rent ot Mortgage payments, car payments, bank statements, etc. They want proof that you have binding things in your Country that will prove your intent to return.
