Applying for an American immigrant visa was told that some administrative processing was needed.

Yue Mei time will give you an answer: The first one: If administrative reconsideration is conducted, will it lead to my visa being refused?

The second question: Will the handling of administrative audit make the visa officer see the records, thus changing the handling of my visa?

In fact, the first two questions boil down to one point: will the US visa administrative review process affect the final visa result?

Bian Xiao of Zhimei Overseas Network clearly told his friends that it would not affect the visa result and would not lead to visa refusal. On the contrary, it will speed up the review progress. Because there are too many applicants who are audited by the American Embassy every day, although many applicants are sure to be audited, there are too many auditors waiting in line at the Embassy. Maybe after your interview today, the materials haven't been reviewed at the embassy, and the embassy put them in batches for review after 3-4 weeks, and some even after 1-2 months. Queue for so long, when the audit begins, the cycle is also very long, so this audit cycle is naturally unpredictable.

Bian Xiao then summarized several common visa types that are easy to be audited:

The reason why the US Embassy conducts the so-called administrative review of applicants is because such applicants make it impossible for visa officers to make clear conclusions on the spot, and there is no guarantee that applicants will definitely return to China on time after going to the United States. Therefore, it is necessary for the authorities behind it to make a comprehensive judgment on the situation as a whole. According to the audit probability, the common applicants who need administrative audit are as follows:

1 level: applicants who have been to the United States before: whether it is business or privacy, whether it is tourism or business, whether it is studying abroad or visiting each other, whether it is work or government, whether it is transit or seafarers. . . . . As long as you have been to the United States, you may be subject to administrative review by the US Embassy.

Level 2: The majors that foreign students want to study in the United States are more sensitive: (The most common auditing majors have been marked in green)

A: Conventional ammunition majors: such as new explosives and tactics, electronic warfare system, single-class large-caliber artillery shells ... (These are important military majors, usually sponsored by the government, and individuals have not learned much).

B nuclear technology: hardening technology, uranium enrichment technology, nuclear fuel reprocessing and plutonium recovery. . . . Do you think the United States can take precautions? Being audited is too normal)

C rocket systems, rocket systems and UAV subsystems: these occupations are generally the most easily suspected of being spies. (The United States is also worried about infernal affairs in China. . . . . )

D applications of navigation, avionics and flight control tools: for example, internal navigation system, flight training, unmanned aerial vehicle technology, etc.

E Biotechnology, biomedical engineering and chemical engineering: such as biochemistry, microbiology and chemical engineering.

F remote sensing technology, imaging and reconnaissance missions: for example, remote sensing satellites, ground receiving stations, etc.

G advanced computer and microelectronics technology: computer engineering, supercomputing and hybrid computers, superconducting electronic devices, etc.

H. Material technology: polymer materials, synthetic liquids, intermetallic compounds, etc.

1. Information security: cryptography, cryptographic systems, etc.

J. Laser and directed energy system technology: such as atomic laser isotope separation, high-energy laser, semiconductor laser and so on.

K sensors and sensor technologies: such as optical sensors, high-speed photographic equipment, geomagnetic instruments, etc.

Marine technology: such as submarines and submersibles, underwater robots, ship propulsion systems, etc.

M robots: such as artificial intelligence, automatic control, pattern recognition technology, etc.

Urban planning: such as architecture, civil engineering technology, environmental planning, geology and so on.

* * * Please check for yourself whether you belong to any of these professional fields. Since President Trump took office, the examination of international students in the United States has been much stricter, and almost every international student will face the problem of administrative examination.

Level 3: applicants who want to work in the United States: H 1B/L 1 applicants.

It is understandable that such applicants are audited. After all, if they want to work in America, they may immigrate to America for a long time. Although the United States is an immigrant country, they still hope that applicants can immigrate normally, not through illegal means.

Level 4: Applicants with previous detention records in the United States.

A normal B visa can't stay in the United States for more than six months, and some applicants stay for more than six months, and it's far more than that. Generally, embassies that stay for more than 3 months will be designated as stays, not to mention those that stay for more than 1-2 years.

Level5: Other situations that need to be audited: having a baby in the United States, having a bad record in the United States before, having a bad record in China, and having untrue information about domestic companies, etc.

So far, Yue Mei time has made a summary on a big topic of the American visa administrative examination, hoping to help the audited friends.
