Hi,

 

I meant more information like were you documented in the US?   SSN or alien number?  School records?  Do your parents still live in the US?

 

One of the things you have to show for a tourist visa is strong ties to your home country.  If you have ties in the US, that would count against you when they evaluate your application.

 

No, I was not documented. Just school records, I graduated when I was 18 years old. My parents are in their country of origin as well.

Hello,

 

I am assuming that your parents took you to the US when you were 3 and stayed in the US?  You were in the US until you turned 21, when you went to your current country?

 

It would be helpful to get more information. 

I came back at the age of 21, I have been in my country for 7 years.

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and I am confused about this whole visa process. I will try to explain my situation as best as I can.

Currently I am 28 years old living in my country of origin, here I am an English teacher and I am majoring in Foreign Languages. You see, my parents took me to the US when I was 3 years old through a travel visa in July of 1995. My parents made the mistake of overstaying.

At the age of 21, I decided to move back to my country of origin (once I had saved up money since I had never been here before) now that I am  28 years old and have been in my country for 7 years, I would like to know if I could apply for a travel visa.

I have no intentions on overstaying, I want to do things the right way, plus I am already adjusted to the lifestyle here.

*Additional details: my exit was not registered since we left on vehicle and no documentation was asked for at the border.
