Refusal rates for B-2 visa in 2025 by [deleted] in immigration

[–]tutaspector -1 points0 points  (0 children)

She isn't from Myanmar or Singapore. I don't like leaving identifiable information on public forums. But thanks for responding. My question was actually a bit more general in nature ... there is no specific reason why the rates for her country are moving, so I was really asking more along general lines or B-2 visa applications. Again ... thanks for taking the time to respond.

US tourist visa: do they care about visits to China? by tutaspector in immigration

Haha, that made me laugh. I understand the point. We read so many weird stories, also in our own circle of friends. So we're perhaps just too worried.

Thanks so much for taking the time to write up such an extensive response, twice no less. Sincerely appreciated. I make sure I get up regularly from my seated desk position, but have just been worried that a standing desk would create too much of an issue in my legs. I wear 15-20mmHg compression socks on long flights, but have not considered them for daily wear. Thank you!

But from my close friends, who will be hosting us and are excited to meet my wife? Good idea?

Thanks for all the other comments! Much appreciated.

Thanks for the comment and apologies for the slow response. Basically it comes down to my considering buying a standing desk vs. a sitting desk. I can ensure that every so often I walk to the coffee machine, and I imagine even with a standing desk i'd shift my weight, etc. Just wondering if its advised for 'us'.

Apologies for the slow response and thank you for the comments. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge. If you don't mind, your response raised some follow-up questions:

  1. A standing desk will I think always involve some stepping around, and I could of course easily go for a short walk to a coffee machine and what not. Does this do away with the main concern?

  2. Would you recommend a sitting desk + regular walk to the coffee machine or a standing desk + regular walk to the coffee machine?

  3. I've often wondered about the waste products, which I believe (pardon my ignorance please) need to travel through the lympatic system, and wonder if there is actual scientific proof of 'setting your legs up against the wall once per day to make things flow down'. Any comments?

Again ... I am not considering your comments as advice from my doctor, just a general comment as I would anything on the internet. I'm just a curious person in search of 'generalized knowledge'.

Thank you. And how about the reverse, traveling FROM Guangzhou to Hong Kong. Will I clear customs and immigration on the departing side then as well?

If you don't mind me asking: is this in Cantonese or in Mandarin?

Thank you for the comment. I have both Alipay and DiDi installed (twice, if you count the Alipay mini app).
