pontevecchio Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 You have very little chance of getting a F1 visa in Canada specially if you were visiting. You need admission to a known college and that takes an year or more. Then you can apply for the F1 visa back home. Obviously I always suggest filling forms truthfully. Link to comment

Thank you . If you are arrested in canada the fingerprint and areest is shared with US immigration also if pleaded guilty you are convicted. So you have to go to insia and get USvisa stamped and get court papers and a immigration lawyer letter stating you are eligible for visa Link to comment
pagladeewana Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 What was the reason of rejection? In USA a simple DUI is not a crime which will result in visa rejection Link to comment
