One of my India friend has applied for a B1/B2 visa for multiple times and did not get approved, even though he had already traveled to quite a lot countries.
I also got rejected a B1/B2 visa for 3 times (I'm holding China passport), and I finally flew and moved to U.S. after my company sponsored me a H1B visa.
The B1/B2 visa is truly the hardest visa to get for most third world people.
- Zombieball 8y agoWow I never would’ve thought this. As a Canadian, when I travel to the US for work / vacations I sometimes get my passport stamped with a B1/B2 visa (it is very common to cross the border with no Visa stamp in your passport). I found this stamp more of an annoyance!
- usepgp 8y agoCanada is easily considered a first-world / powerful passport country. https://www.passportindex.org/comparebyPassport.php?p1=ca&p2=us&fl=&s=yes https://www.passportindex.org/comparebyPassport.php?p1=ca&p2...

- Scoundreller 8y agoCanada is fairly special for entering the US since they don’t even fingerprint you.
- briandear 8y agoThat visa is hard to get not specifically based on third world status, but based on the statistics of overstaying those visas. Substantial home country ties, such as a business or owning property vastly increase the chance of getting that visa.
- xaranke 8y agoHaving other long-term visas and not overstaying them also helps.
