范例17.2 原文

 

Dear Visa Officer ,

 

My application for a student visa to pursue my graduate studies in the United States was rejected by your visa officer on July 18, 1997. The main reason, according to my interview with the visa officer, is because I have a brother who is now working for the United Nations in Canada and is sponsoring part of my cost for my graduate program in the U.S.. Therefore the visa officer rejected my application on the ground of immigration intention (214b).

 

Although I understand that it is up to the visa officer to exercise his or her discretion on whether an applicant has immigration intention, I believe in my case that the visa officer has made a wrong judgment. I would like you to know the following facts:

 

My brother, Qian Yongqiang, a prominent economist from China State Council, came to the United States as a visiting scholar to Yale in 1993 and now is a United Nations specialist positioned in Canada. A powerful fact is: my brother NEVER EVER sought for the immigration status to The United States nor to Canada during the last four years he has been living there (and of course he could if he would!). As a well-known economist, his career ambition is in China and he does not want his opportunity in Chinese high level government to be spoiled by his American immigrant status. (His term position with the UN was consented by his former employer: China Development Research Center at China State Council). My brother is a living proof that, besides seeking for an American green card, people do have other options on their itinerary for their journey of life. While too many people did break their promises to the United States in light of visa conditions, my brother kept his! You refused my visa for the reason of my brother who had played by rules while you must have issued visas to people whose siblings had NOT. Is this a fair decision? I think not.

 

Graduated from one of China’s leading universities (Jianghan University) and majored in Management Information Systems (MIS), I have been working in a couple of rewarding jobs upon graduation. Currently I am employed by a major investment consulting firm as its MIS specialist. Young technology elite people like me have many money making opportunities in today’s China particularly in the high-tech industry. I know computer people can make forty or fifty thousand dollars or more a year in the United States but it will be my ultimate future in a foreign country, while my career and business opportunities in China is limitless. With my brother’s government contacts, my family’s social network, and with a valued American Master’s degree which will give me a golden finger to touch China’s high-tech market, I would be stupid not to pursue my FORTUNE and my FUTUER back in China after I complete my graduate program in the United States.

 

I respectfully request that you give me a position consideration on basis of my above statement.

 

Sincerely,

 

范例17.3 翻译

 

尊敬的签证官：

 

我为去美国读研究生的签证申请在1997年7月10日被你们签证官拒绝。主要的拒签理由，根据签证官对我的面试，是因为我有一个目前正在为联合国在加拿大工作的哥哥，他是我的学习部分资金的担保人。因此签证官就以移民倾向为理由拒绝了我的申请（214b）.

 

尽管我理解签证官有很大的解释权来决定谁有或没有移民倾向，我相信对我的申请签证官作出的是一个错误判断。我想让你们知道下列事实：

 

我的哥哥，钱永强，来自中国国务院的杰出的经济学家，1993年以耶鲁大学访问学者身份赴美，现在作为联合国专家供职于加拿大。一个强大的事实是：过去四年住在美国，我的哥哥从来根本没有寻求过美国的或者加拿大的移民身份（如果他想的话他当然就可以申请！）。作为一个知名的经济学家，他的事业追求在中国，他丝毫不想让他在中国高层政府中的各种机会被美国移民身份搞灰了。（他在联合国的短期合同经过了他的单位──中国国务院国际研究中心──的同意）。我哥哥是一个活生生的例子，证明了除追求美国绿卡之外，人们的生命之旅其实还是可以有其它的行程安排可供选择。当许多人背弃他们对于美国签证规定的承诺的时候，我哥哥保持了他的诺言！你因为我的循规蹈矩的哥哥而拒签我的签证，但是你们一定给过那些有兄弟姐妹在美国申请了移民的人发过签证。这是一个合理的决定吗？我想不是。

 

从中国一个名牌大学毕业（江汉大学）并且学的是信息管理系统专业，我毕业后在几个相当好的职业上从事我的专业。目前，我是一家大型投资咨询公司的信息管理专家。象我这样的年青的科技专才在今日中国有太多的赚钱机会，尤其是在高科技领域。我也知道电脑人才在美国一年可以赚个四五万美元或者更多一些，在国外奋斗最多有就是这样，而我在中国的事业和前途却无限远大。有着我哥哥在政府的关系，我们家族的社会网络，以及一个珍贵的能够使我在中国的高科技市场点石成金的美国硕士学位，我一定是非常的愚蠢，如果我完成了美国的学业不回中国来发展我的事业和前途的话。

 

我尊敬地请求你根据上述情况，你给我一个积极的考虑。

 

忠诚的，

 

　

 

范例17.4 分析

 

亲属在美国滞留未归，是214b拒签的一个官方理由。这里抓住签证官的这个拒签理由，指出申请者的哥哥从来没有申请过移民，因此这个“亲属滞留美国不归因而我也会留在美国”的拒签理由是站不住脚的。哥哥之所以没有申请美国或加拿大的移民虽然他能够，是因为哥哥在国内有巨大的前途。我也一样。基于上述逻辑，第二段辩论是我自己的情况：我自己是学电脑的，在国内有极大的前途，所以也会和哥哥一样，回国发展。

 

这封申诉信本身的内容有很好的参考价值。但是这位申请者最终并没有得到签证，原因有下列几点，希望读者注意检查自身情况，免遭相同的不测：

 

最后一点有关签证申诉信的作用：在许多情况下，签证官是仔细阅读你递交的申诉信，但是也有不看的时候，看了当然还是有拒签的时候，哪怕这是徐小平的作品。下列情况导致签证官不看你的申诉信：
