Backpacking with visa B2 in USA

score:5

Accepted answer

Based on numerous reports, the US consulates around the world seem to be fairly strict in issuing B2 visas to people from Visa Waiver Program countries - especially younger people and/or those without a good reason to need more than the VWP offers beyond "I want to stay for more than 3 months".

You really have 2 options :

  • Use the VWP, and stay less than the 90 days that it allows you
  • Apply for a B2, and risk being rejected. If you are rejected, then you will almost certainly NOT be allowed enter the country using the VWP for at least 1-2 years afterwards.

Personally I would recommend going with the first option...
