Those seeking to prove ties with a US entity, such as an employer or university, must provide evidence of a “formal, documented” relationship that was “formed in the ordinary course of events”. For refugees seeking resettlement, many of whom have no existing ties to the US, the state department has said that a “formal assurance” from a resettlement agency is not enough to prove such a tie. | Those seeking to prove ties with a US entity, such as an employer or university, must provide evidence of a “formal, documented” relationship that was “formed in the ordinary course of events”.
