Does the US Embassy Keep Records of Visa Denials?

Yes, the U.S. Embassy keeps a record of visa denials. When a visa application is denied, the U.S. Department of State maintains a record of the decision in the applicant's immigration file. This record is accessible for future visa applications and may be reviewed by consular officers when you apply for a visa again. The reasons for the denial are typically noted in the applicant's file, which can help consular officers assess whether the applicant has addressed the issues that led to the previous denial. It’s important to carefully review the reasons for the denial and take steps to address them before reapplying.
