I asked this before, I want to get more opinion from experts please:
John applied to a tourist visa at the US consulate and was rejected because he couldn't prove that he will leave the USA at the end of his visit.
Now John has a new clean passport and wants to apply to the UK embassy for a tourist visa and sincerely plans to return home at the end of his visit to the UK.
On the UK visitor visa application, there's a question,
"Have you ever been refused a visa for any country, including the UK?"
- If John answers "Yes, rejected a USA tourist visa", will this negatively affect the evaluation of his application?
- If John answers "No" to this question,
is there any way the UK consulate would know that John wasn't telling all the truth on this question?
Many thanks for your answer.
