I was sorry to learn of the difficulties which this person has experienced in endeavoring to travel to the United States. As the House will appreciate, US immigration procedures are a matter for the US authorities. As visa applications are subject to the relevant data protection legislation, it is the US Embassy’s policy not to discuss individual cases with a third party. As such, I am not in a position to make representations to the US Embassy on specific cases.
