It usually means you entered your information incorrectly. The fee is now lost, but you have ability to apply again and pay again.

- The comment relates to the fact that American passports don’t not include city of birth, but only the state. While the application for visa says city of birth, it is also required that the answers match up with what is in the passport. Therefore, the question was, should you actually enter the city name on the visa application, even though it is not on the passport or should you enter the state name, which is on the passport, but obviously isn’t the city of birth. I now see that you included a copy of the US passport application. Just because it is collected on the form, doesn’t mean it is included on the actual passport. Everything I find online says it isn’t included in the passport. Is it included on yours? Not sure why everyone would skip that question though, if your argument is correct.

What nationality are you?

You can apply online via evisa process through Taiwan, but you don’t apply in person

Also, there are many Americans with US passports that were born outside the US. Therefore while it is a US document, there place of birth would not be USA

- Dude, you are wrong. Most (if not all) USA passports, for people born in the USA, shows state and country.
