Frequently Asked Question (FAQ)
If my visa application was denied, when can I apply again?
A general rule is 6 months after denial. However, it is advisable to wait until there are significant changes in your circumstances. For example, getting married, having a child, acquiring assets, receiving a job promotion, increasing your salary, traveling more with no record of overstaying, or obtaining visas from other countries. These factors can help strengthen your application.
