ESTA Visa + Past US Work Visa Rejection

Hi all,

I hope this is the right place to post this - but my bf is wanting to travel to the US with me in December. He is an EU citizen, and therefore qualifies for ESTA, except that he has a work visa rejection from the US from 2019.

He was told that his visa refusal won’t block him from entering the USA after 1 year, but he just received a refusal for the ESTA. Now we are wondering, will he always have to apply for a visa just to visit the US? It feels like a forever penalty just for being rejected from a work visa.

I tried calling both the embassy and the ESTA people and they keep sending me to each other -___- curious if anyone else has been in this situation. Thanks!

The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...
