What are the best strategies for getting a Thai girlfriend a US tourist visa after a denial?

She HAS to have everything going for her when she applies The first time, if she cant show Home, Business, Job, Big Ties to her Country to come back to, and if she says ANYTHING about going to visit American Boy Friend its a instant Deny and its in the system so if you apply again in say six months she will still be Denied, so you would have the best shot for the 90 day marriage VISA, and yes been there , done that, my girl had Zero interest in staying in the US, just wanted to visit a couple weeks in the winter to see things here and Snow, she been with the Same Hospital 13 year, owns her Condo Kids and Family, 2 brothers Thai Police , but as soon as she mentioned staying with me it was over, Good Luck

Getting a Thai girlfriend a visa is difficult. They want her to have a good job, a letter from her employer, a bank account . Someone who will actually fly back to Thailand. Do it right the first time and she’s good for continued trips. Screw up and never again. Another option is you have to apply for her 90 day marriage visa. You apply from the USA she will get an interview in Bangkok…….

The government has data. Non U.S. related but my mother used to work for immigration Canada and it was the same. The cases of foreigners from non western or rich Asian countries like japan, Taiwan or Singapore skipping their return flight was high on tourist visas. My ex wife (Thai) managed to get a U.S. tourist visa (she was a millionaire (in dollars) and real estate investments) and did exactly that. Skipped the return and went through the entire process to become a U.S. citizen ´the painful way’. My reasoning is this: every illegal case costs a fortune to the federal government to process. From what she told me, it’s countless fillings and court appearances. All of that represents significant man/hours.

America is full of smoke blown bank rupt trump's and scammer Bernie Madoff type's.

$35 trillion dollars in debt, they need all the tax payers they can find to support the nonesense evil right

Tell her to just enter illegally through our souther border. Everyone else does.

Happens a lot! Advise her to get a few stamps in her passport so the US can feel confident that once she arrives she is later going to leave! A professional job back home also helps.

Don't tell her to contact Trump, he hates all foreigners, unless their rich that is. 😂

Go thru Mexico, everyone else is.

This is exactly why all the people who have been living in Thailand as "tourists" for many many years need to stop complaining about how the Thai government makes visas hard for everyone.

My partner was denied entry to Australia on the first attempt and I went through Siam legal I sent them a scaithing email. Because they left photo's and information out, they agreed to reapply and it was approved.

The grounds for the first attempt denial, were

1) they doubt she was in a 4year relationship with me.

2) her thailand ties were not strong. Example, family, relatives, children,job,bank commitments,assests,

3) Doubt she would return to thailand at the end of the Visa.

I have heard nothinbg but horror stories of Thai ladies trying to get US Visa. From what I understand, she will have to meet all the requirements, go through an interview or two, then it's a lottery. If you dont get it, try again, several times, and eventually it will happen.

I have a friend married to a Thai lady. They lived in the US for a few years and she had a green card. She decided she didn't want citizenship (because of the requirements), so she left for Thailand forfeiting her green card. Its a lot of hassle for her to get tourist visa, regardless of being married to a US citizen, spending years in US, and have strong community ties.

If you truly love her, stuff in a suite case and bring in as checked-baggage. You will likely go to jail but she might get to stay for awhile.

Bali is also a nice place to take someone you love (no suite case required). What does the US have anyway? More fat people? More guns? The grand canyon ?

We've been denied three times. Two as engaged and once after we got married.

Go to Mexico and walk across the boarder, its free!!

Because there is a slim to no chance every time that she will be denied if an American citizen wants to bring her for a visit. ( There are some agents who are good for this...or so they say)

My air hostess girlfriend (who's now my wife) got a visa at the Embassy no problem. It's like others have said. What's their background, employment, financial assets, etc.

My question is if I'm married to Thai and live in Thailand would it be possible to visit my family together in America?

I have personal experience with this, of the 20 people in the group waiting “interview “ at the US embassy in BKK only one was excepted and that one was for education visa. ALL others requesting tourist visa were denied. Since then I have talked to dozens of people inside the Government and they all say the limits on Thais getting a tourist visa is less than 1%

The history with Thais and other Asians coming to the states is that they simply don’t return. It’s sad that the past history is driving this but it is what it is.

After 12 months of waiting for a K1 visa we still haven’t gotten a visa … waiting….

My partner got denied a tourist visa in spite of bank account, English skills, family, business, and Thailand. Now accepted for fiancé Visa. I think the culture at the embassies is of absolute hostility to applicants from non-– western countries. I’m generally a liberal, but it is so disappointing what’s happening at the border while proper applicants are denied. it said that most illegal immigrants actually come on tourist visas and overstay rather than passing through the border illegally.

There is a lot on Reddit about this. One commenter says that they applied direct to the embassy and it was a horrible and degrading experience. Most comments agree that you will never get a Thai girlfriend into the US. Another commenter explains, that single Thai women making small salaries are likely to abandon Thailand and work illegally as pee noi 'little ghosts' in the US for significantly higher salaries. Apparently there is a long track record of Thais that have cheated the system and made it incredibly difficult to obtain this type of visa. It sucks for us Americans that need to be in the US to obtain a salary, but have beautiful girlfriends in Thailand that want to see the U.S. and would consider moving here, but that we are not ready to get a fiancé visa for. These women, if they want to leave Thailand, or want to split their time between a western country and Thailand, invariably end up with a non-U.S. boyfriend (Aussie, Brit, German, etc.) and live happily ever after in those countries. Just another reason that more people from the U.S. are becoming expats.

It is usually a matter of reason to return, for schengen after being refused I worked with an agent that created the application along side us. It worked after adding more things.

Showing reason to return like a job, a property, family, car etc... has a big impact. Also showing I had a thai bank with lots of cash apparently was a good thing, the idea being I am invested in Thailand so no reason we wont go back together. Everything you can think of as a reason she wont just stay there is good and make that in a proper dock with a proper header. Add pictures if relevent, my gf work freelance online so no work paperwork but we made pics of her selling stuff on stream and it worked.

Now that was all for schengen, US is probably more stingy.

Mexico

Call Joe Biden he'll let you cross the U.S. southern border illegally 🤣🤦🏻‍♂️

Hey Zelig- our interview is in April. Could you share with me some more about the process?

Sure just fly to Mexico and walk over the border.. no visa needed

You said girlfriend. It ended right there. Sorry to say getting your gf permission to visit is almost impossible. Not entirely, but close.

U men love these pipe dreams

To get a visa to the usa, the best thing to do is have the person travel to many countries and fill up the passport first with visas proving the person follows rules.

Then you apply for usa visa. Usa is rhe hardest visa out there. Did they ban

Lot of migrants, 5K+ daily, just walked in everyday from the south border

Tell her that Thailand is better than USA , people are moving to Thailand from whole western world , she will not get somtum over there 😁 I will suggest you to start one small restaurant “on paper” and apply after one year , and Consider all the details of DS 160 you filled last time , US unpredictable. All the very best

It is amazing how people are just walking in through the US southern border, but if they do it the legal way they get denied. 🤷‍♂️

Denied why ?Is she a criminal ?

This with solid working positions are denied everyday it's not an easy process. Some people get it easy and some people never get it in their lifetime I've seen it happen to people with solid positions in the community.

Dingy to uk 🇬🇧 no problem accepted 100 % and free accommodation

Paul King easy visa Pattaya

Usually the American Embassy wants her to have a Thai job, money in the bank…etc.

At one time I read that 96% of Filipinos who got a visa to visit the USA never left

Unfortunately Asia, especially SE Asia has a bad rap. When I was stationed in South Korea in the late 80's a lot of bar girls married American military people and once they got their green card a lot left their husband's. That is the reputation SE Asia has with American Embassys. She has to prove that she will return to Thailand. A job, property, kids, a bank account, etc, etc.

Just get her a Mexican Visa and swim suit

Try TSL & Associates out of Bangkok, they work wonders.

USA LOVES immigrants for cheap labour. But for SE Asian passport holders looking to vacation or accompany partner, they treat them like absolute 💩. Something for the country to hang its head in shame about.

Just fly to Mexico and walk over the border I heard that works ok.

If she was denied entry then there is nothing anyone else can do, as the US embassy can't be bribed. Also, getting married doesn't change anything.

These guys are very good.
