Just got my Schengen tourist visa (to France) rejected. I have an expired h1b visa stamp but approval until 2025. I mailed in my application (because I’d gotten this visa many times) and reason given was “insufficient reason for your trip”. Anyone has experience with this and can advise? 😭

Hi op can I dm you??

Hey! When they reject do they let you know? My status says - “processed application is being dispatched” does this mean it’s approved or not?

I applied through VFS. They didn’t really say anything
