This story might sound somewhat familiar to you. I travelled to San Francisco three months ago under the Visa Waiver to build my dream company. I worked non-stop, every single day, building my prototype, networking and seeking investment.

In the past three months, I have achieved an extraordinary amount, made so many new friends and was ready to launch my company. My startup SkillPitcher, is one that actually creates jobs. I had set it up to eliminate deficiencies associated with the hiring process.

After my waiver period was over, I travelled back home to Amsterdam to get a Visa, so that I don't have to go in and out every three months. Today I was refused a B1 visa under section 214(b).

I do not know what to do now. I can only write and hope that someone will hear my story.

I would appreciate any type of advice or help with this matter.

Thank you for your time.

Kind regards, Elmar Gasimov Founder at SkillPitcher.com
