No idea if you're a troll or just drunk but - how did they do you wrong? You have no job. You're a prime candidate to overstay/not leave the US.

Read this: Way's to live & work in the USA.

It sounds like the only way you'll ever live in America is by marrying your US partner.

No, you can't reverse the cancellation. You have been denied entry, so the cancellation is valid. If you want to re-enter, you must apply for a B visa.

If you were denied entry, it is most likely because you were unable to show enough ties to the UK and, as Ben says, the only way you're going back to live is to marry your partner, and this is now complicated.

Read Pulaski's Ways from the link in the above post and then come and ask any questions based off of that.

How can you afford to travel to USA if you don't work. Are you/she wealthy?
Why does your girlfriend live in USA. Is she a citizen? Does she know your circumstances? Could she move to UK?
If she is a US citizen and wants to marry you, it is possible.

My girl is wealthy and I only recently lost my job .... I have money

And I already went for 3months and everything was okay with it stayed for 90 days then come home

I was just wondering if I could appleal about here decision also

They said at the start we will let you have your 3 months but then they took my phone and changed there mind

And all what was on my plan is the big plan I was going to go for 90 come back apply for a visa then try get a sponcer in us then apply for a work visa so everything on my phone talking about it all to my girlfriend was the correct way of doing it

It never said I was going to over stay or plan on it

I already went there 6june till 3rd September and came back

No you cannot appeal a revocation of Visa Waiver eligibility. Next time you visit you will need a visa.

For future ref, staying for exactly 90 days isn't a good idea - what if you miss your flight? Or are ill? Or there is something like the volcano ash cloud that grounded flights a few years back? Always give yourself some leeway, although it looks like you'll need a visa to visit now anyway.

Ah. I can see why they refused you entry unfortunately, that would be suspicious to them.

What do you do for a living and what qualifications do you have, are you eligible for an employment based visa?

edit: the appeal you desire is to enter USA. The method is to apply for a visa. You may be eligible for several options depending on answers to earlier questions.

As others have said there is no appeal to having been denied entry to the US under the VWP and to having your ESTA cancelled.

You seem to feel that the highlighted part of your quoted text should have worked in your favor. In fact, it is quite understandable that it would not work for you but against you. You were openly discussing a way to immigrate to the US and thus, assured the officer(s) that you did have intent to immigrate and that you have a serious romantic involvement with a US Citizen which compounds that intent. They might well have thought you and she would marry on this visit and you would remain in the US and she and you would file the petitions for your permanent residency.

In order for you to be sponsored for a work visa, you would be required to have a college/university degree and be employable in a field that qualifies for a work visa. Also you do not seem to know that you don't apply for a work visa, but rather, the company offering you employment must apply for that visa on your behalf.

While I sorry that you were turned around and made to return home, I can understand why that decision was made and frankly, it was not an erroneous decision and there is no appeal. If you want to return, apply for a B visa and have an interview at the US Embassy in London. Your chances of getting it approved are slim to none, however.

Good on you for trying to do the right thing Unfortunately, it's not always possible to migrate to another country, no matter what the reason is for wanting to do so. I'm sure the very knowledgeable forum members here will advise you if there's any way you can make this work.

But all what I'm doing is the right way to get approved for a visa as it shows I am planning on coming home ....
And I'm only going for 14 days not the fall 6mouths

All I want to do ATM is get the visa
Then take next steps after that

But I am training to become a firefighter and my girlfriend said that might be good as we might need some where she lives DeKalb

A firefighter is not the type of job that leads to a work visa.

Your best path is to continue dating long distance until you guys feel ready for marriage, and then do one of the marriage based visas.
