VO- will this be internal meetings?
ME- yes

VO- how long you have been with your current employer?
ME- 5 months

VO- how long would you stay in US?
ME- 4 weeks.

US VISITOR VISA response from AVS:  This is a very interesting case, as we see that applicant answered almost all the questions correctly, and in quite a professional manner. The reasons as we can analyse are as follows:

  1. You have worked only for 5 months with this company, It is highly unlikely for a company to send someone who has just recently joined the company for meetings with higher management, Unless you are a very senior employee both with designation and Age/experience.
  2. Your answer to the question “Where are your clients ?” was very vague, If you had specific meetings planned in Houston, Tx. your answer should have been probable where in Houston, or at the minimum Houston again. I can imagine that you meant you have US based clients. – Also you said that you were going to meet your company members (VP, CEO) etc, then why bother about clients ??? your answer kind of contradicted your own answers.
  3. As the Counselor mentioned 4 weeks for business meeting with VP and CEO does not sound right ! – You justified by mentioning a series of meetings. However initially you mentioned that you have to just get your business plan approved in a presentation.

Unfortunately your case has been very critically analysed, may be this is the new trend at US Consulates, The best option is to reapply immediately. As if you really have to discuss your project plan, you have to – may be the next counselor will see reason in your application.
