She doesn't need to say it.  While you think you are being creative, this trick is well known.  You aren't doing anything new that is going to allow her to visit the US.

 

If you want to see her, then you will need to go to her or meet her in another country.

There is no way to ensure success. If there was a magical something I would sell it and be on the beach in Brazil instead of wondering when the early snow will melt.

 

I have noticed there seem to be many Brazilians who have access to a European Passport that allows them to use the VWP. I assume that is not the case here.

 

I like the distinguished addition, Mods please note.

 

 

Ok maybe not "ensure" but, boost her chances perhaps?

Haven’t read all the above, but yes just a few questions is normal. In the vast majority of cases, the decision is made on the answers presented in the DS160 (obviously to many more questions than asked in the interview itself) and it’s rare that the interview changes things. Seems her high risk group (young single female) and lack of significant ties hurt her. The better the job, the more there is to give up and the stronger the tie; being a secretary is easy to forgo.

It literally took us seconds and a single post from you to figure out what is going on.  It wasn't hard at all for us to figure out.  The CO are better trained.

Nada.  Nothing.  Zilch.

How many young single people do you think go all the way to the US to visit Disneyland on their own? That was probably a red flag.

Uhm, If strangers from an online forum board can detect it within seconds. What do you think a highly trained US Foreign Services employee such as the Consular Officer, who is stationed in Brazil and seen hundreds of these applications every days and interviewed hundreds of people, not be able to detect that? 

 

A young woman travels alone to the US to visit Disney ? Really?

Just wanna add:

A single girl probably in her twenties who’s working her ### off full day while studying part time during night planning to spend hard earned money in Disney!!! The CO wud’ve guessed it right away or way before that she is going to see her American bf. The explanation you are looking for rejection is “why would she return back to brazil?”

 

Regarding the financial loss you are talking about, their website specifically says not to buy or sell anything until you have visa in hand, so can’t blame them.

A seasoned and retired US Consular Officer told me once, that in her career, she was stationed at many many different countries, and while every country is unique, for each of them, there are only about a handful of "stories" and literally after about a month, every CO figure out very quickly the top 10 "story lines" for that country are. and while every new applicant feels like they're creating a story so unique and great and wonderful, it's only the 5th time the CO hears that particular "story" that day.

Her main reason to go to USA was to meet you and stay, it's that clear. So the CO figured that out in seconds. Also, the decision against her was made before she even showed up. It could be anything. As a secretary, she can't make enough to sponsor herself for USA trip. The CO somehow saw that she has you in the country. That's it. She can now forget about USA visa for a few years, at least.

Well, based on what was done and how... It's fine.

OP, I feel your pain and understand what she was trying to do.  There is no US visa for dating.  When I first met my now husband two years ago in Brazil and fell in love, we researched all the US visa requirements and concluded that it would be a waste of time and money for him (young, single, Brazilian male) to even try for a B visa to visit me in the US, because of all the overstays that happen all the time.  So I went to visit him many times, to develop our relationship and decide if we wanted to get serious and eventually be together, either in the US or in Brazil.  Eventually I made nine trips to be with him in Brazil, and one trip together to London and Paris.  We got married in Brazil and I filed a petition for a CR-1 visa for him.  He arrived in California three months ago and life is good.  I recommend the same approach in your case.  Go to Brazil as often as you can and see where the relationship goes.  Then decide if you want to be together in the US and if a K-1 or CR-1 works better in your situation.  Good luck!
