Not really, even if the person has a lot of money - but it's found out that they are borrowing it - they still can get denied.
Some have been approved with bank accounts less than 200K. It really depends on how you do o

Has anyone applied for a US visa after ECQ (enhanced community quarantine) and was approved?
Did the consul ask the same questions as mentioned in this blog?
Is it harder to get a visa because COVID19 is still ongoing?
I would really appreciate if anyone can answer as this will also help other applicants as well. Thank you! ?
By the way, my interview was initially set last March 2020 but got cancelled. I reapplied but the earliest available date is August 2021.
Base on my observation, the embassy only caters 5 scheduled appointments per day with 10 applicants per sched. Each schedule is 15 minutes apart.

Hi, thanks so much for your blog on how to procure a US tourist visa. Very informative indeed. May I just ask, if the person who sponsors me in getting a tourist visa is an american citizen, can I still apply for it?

Question: How did you prove that you have "strong ties" to the Philippines and that you will return? That seems to be the key and why most applicants get rejected during the interview. However, the embassy officers refuse to explain to me what exactly they consider to be "strong ties". It seems to be vague and arbitrary, or perhaps it's a trade secret and they don't want to say. How did you prove that you have strong ties enough to come back home?
