Please only reply if you have been in this situation.
So in September 2019, i got approved for an o1. I schedule an interview at my embassy yet because my o1 dates had already started since August, i requested an expedite appointment which was accepted - STUPID ME!!
When i went to the Embassy, they said they will issue me the visa once they see That my application appears on the pims database. They gave me a 221g notice so a DENIAL.
One week after i got my visa stamp and was all good to go.
Now, i m wondering...next time i want to renew my o1, what will happen. Will that be more complicated?
So basically, has anyone here especially O1 visa people got denied their visa at the embassy due to PIMS and reapplied successfully after their current O1 ended?
Thanks
