Going back to the US after being denied visa

Hi everyone,

Looking for some advice as I am unsure how to proceed.

I went to the US on F1 visa. After college, I changed to H1B, got laid off, changed back to F1 for my masters.

I went back home, applied and got in law school, but got denied F1, because I had too many ties with the US.

I own a home in the US and my sister is there.
I don't have ties to my home country.
I played the green card lottery

It affected me quite a bit as I never thought I would be denied. I did visit once on vacation, but was asked many questions at the border control.

After that, I went on vacation and started working in another continent for 6 years, but now I'd like to go back to the US to visit.

I have a couple of questions:

  1. Going back on tourist visa just to visit my sister: I come from a country where I don't have to get a visa, but since I have been denied a visa at the embassy, is there a risk? What should I do to avoid any issues?

I just don't want to be red flagged or have any issues.

DS-260 Have you ever attended any educational institutions at a secondary level or above?

Ok so I’m not sure what to put down here, I have a high school diploma and currently attending college! So for the occupation part for a previous question I put down the school I go to and address, however I am uncertain what to put down here, I put my high school start and end date but do I also include the college? Because it says highest level of education COMPLETED but also in the drop down menu there is an option that says UNIVERSITY,NO DEGREE which if I do choose then I will have to fill out the school information and then a start date and an end date which I still do not know this is the only question I’m struggling will and have looked into it but no straightforward answer! I hope you guys can help submitted by /u/AlarmingUmpire3 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/immigration/comments/j2eni9/ds260_have_you_ever_attended_any_educational/

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...
