My boyfriend has never been to the U.S., but has tried getting a visa twice.  Both times he has been refused.  I believe it was on a work visa, not sure.  He wants to visit me this summer, and he lives in Egypt.

Is there a reason why he cannot get a visa?  Is it really THAT HARD?  How can I get him to the U.S.?

Gotta go through the State Department for that.  Odds are that if he's been refused twice, then he'll probably get refused a third time.

An Egyptian guy coming to the US isn't very high at the top of the list of those for them to let in.

Because he wants a work visa... and since he's from Egypt, they see him as a possible immigrant which is bad. They mostly give out visas if you can prove that you don't want to immigrate to the US. Why won't he apply for a tourist visa? It's not that hard. He has to prove that he only wants to go there temporarily - prove that he has a job in Egypt or that he is attending a school there and show his return plane ticket from the US back to Egypt, also he has to prove he has enough money for his stay and travel expenses.

I hate to say this, but if he's muslim, egyptian, and happens to have a name similar to any recorded terrorist they will keep refusing him.
