我遇到大麻煩~~請大家給我意見!!

大家好!
我最近在F1簽證上遇到了極大的麻煩.
我在6/22 & 7/3 去AIT辦簽證,沒想到都被拒簽了,
原因是我不符合214(b)條款,
以下是我的背景:
出生地:China 12歲先到香港,臨時居留,幾個月後移民台灣與祖父同住
當年就取得台灣公民,在台灣接受國中~大學的教育並服兵役,但父母及兄弟姐妹仍是大陸籍,我今年有得到admission, in-state tutition, scholarship and TA
我於6/22 辦簽證時指出示了I-20,財力證明,和所有DS-Forms結果慘遭拒絕,於是7/3根據214(b)條款又多準備了全戶英文戶籍謄本及不動產證明,成績單畢業證書等資料,面試官都分別看過了但還是用相同的條款拒絕發簽證給我,2次面試官問的問題都是在我從小到大的學經歷背景上打轉,大概都十到十五分鐘就結束了.
想請問大家應該怎麼辦??學校8月中就開學了,我現在又不敢預約第三次....

214(b)條款如下:
Section 214(b) is part of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). It states:

Every alien shall be presumed to be an immigrant until he establishes to the satisfaction of the consular officer, at the time of application for admission, that he is entitled to a nonimmigrant status...


To qualify for a visitor or student visa, an applicant must meet the requirements of sections 101(a)(15)(B) or (F) of the INA respectively. Failure to do so will result in a refusal of a visa under INA 214(b). The most frequent basis for such a refusal concerns the requirement that the prospective visitor or student possess a residence abroad he/she has no intention of abandoning. Applicants prove the existence of such residence by demonstrating that they have ties abroad that would compel them to leave the U.S. at the end of the temporary stay. The law places this burden of proof on the applicant.

Our consular officers have a difficult job. They must decide in a very short time if someone is qualified to receive a temporary visa. Most cases are decided after a brief interview and review of whatever evidence of ties an applicant presents



WHAT CONSTITUTES "STRONG TIES"?

Strong ties differ from country to country, city to city, individual to individual. Some examples of ties can be a job, a house, a family, a bank account. "Ties" are the various aspects of your life that bind you to your country of residence: your possessions, employment, social and family relationships.

As a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident, imagine your own ties in the United States. Would a consular office of a foreign country consider that you have a residence in the United States that you do not intend to abandon? It is likely that the answer would be "yes" if you have a job, a family, if you own or rent a house or apartment, or if you have other commitments that would require you to return to the United States at the conclusion of a visit abroad. Each person's situation is different.

Our consular officers are aware of this diversity. During the visa interview they look at each application individually and consider professional, social, cultural and other factors. In cases of younger applicants who may not have had an opportunity to form many ties, consular officers may look at the applicants specific intentions, family situations, and long-range plans and prospects within his or her country of residence. Each case is examined individually and is accorded every consideration under the law.

請問一下移民官面試的時候都問些什麼問題嗎?
還有兩次的移民官是不是都同一人呢?

我不想隨便猜測什麼
畢竟我不知道你的背景情形
不過你說到你大部分的家人都還是大陸籍 而且感覺也都還在大陸
這方面有可能是移民官最注意的地方
過去十年來申請移民美國的最多兩個國家是印度與中國
而從大陸偷渡到美國的消息還是有所聞
可知美國移民局很清楚很多中國人想要移居到美國
因為你家庭國籍的關係可能造成移民官認為你來美國後會有想要留在美國好把你家人都接出來
雖然我不知道移民官頭腦是不是不會轉彎想說如果可以出來你家人早就先來台灣了
幹麻還要這麼麻煩的分隔兩地後再往第三個國家跑
不過他/她在意的只是美國的利益 所以可能讓他/她做出這樣的決定
另外還有一個情形是就因為你大部分家人都不在台灣
可能會給移民官一種錯覺說你有沒有回台灣都沒關係
所以除了顯示你自己本身有的"strong tie"外
你有可能也需要顯示你父母在大陸有穩定工作還有資產而沒有想要出走其他地方
組父母在健康或是經濟上會需要你回台灣幫忙照顧等等
小小一些意見 正不正確請樓主自行判斷
如有冒犯什麼請先見諒
When one door closes another door opens; but we do often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.
