Hi Guys,
I am an EP holder, single, and working in Singapore for 2 years now. I am planning to apply for US B2 (Tourist) visa.
Please suggest if I should apply for the visa from US embassy in Singapore or my home country, Pakistan ?
I have been told that the ties to the home country are critical for visa acceptance, and it is recommended to apply from home country. I have a job in Singapore; applying from Pakistan would be ambiguous to visa officer that I would be returning/staying in SG for at least few years. Whereas if applying from Singapore, the only tie is my job, I can provide iras certificates, salary slips, Singapore bank account details, and proof from the current employer that I will be returning to work.
Any suggestions where I should proceed my application at ?

Re: US B2 Tourist Visa for EP holders
Depending on your religion and who wins the US elections, you might want to think about your plans and hold off at least till after the November election.

i would think that if your life is (currently) in singapore, it would be very weird for you to apply for a visa in pakistan - but that's just me.
