tourist visa granted but went home to the philippines

[gracielle86]

i have a friend who passed all the foreign exams.. and was fortunately granted a tourist visa.. she went to the states but the immigration asked her so many questions.. her purpose of visiting usa was just to visit her relatives. i dont know what had happened. the immigration knew that she is a nurse and asked her so many questions.. sad to say, but she was sent back to the philippines at that very moment.. airport to airport. and her visa has been cancelled. she advised me not anymore apply for a tourist visa. what do u think?

Rougue I believe the poster meant it in general, not you personally. If you were accepted into grad school and hadn't enrolled yet, I don't see that as lying. So I don't believe you were lying. I also believe the poster was speaking in general, and so was I.

I was generalizing not being specific to any one poster. It is irritating reading so many people on this forum alluding to or even admitting the fact they feel they are somehow above the law and can do what they like to achieve their aims with no consideration for moral or ethical or legal ramifications. I know we all have our own ambitions but please, people, follow them with integrity!!!! Karma will bite those of you in the behind who choose to act as if the rules don't apply to you!!!!
