Need a solution or opinions on this situation.
I have a Canadian work permit as a long haul trailer driver. In order for me to carry out my work duties I have to enter the US to transport the goods and then return to Canada.

I went to the USA embassy in my country and was denied the visa.
I applied for a B1/B2 visa and I explained that I ave a job offer with a Canadian company as a long haul truck driver and in oder for me to carry out my work duties I need the USA visa bcaz I have to enter the USA for 3 days to deliver the goods. I got denied. What's your take on this situation?

Am still in my home country.

Every country is independent and can deny your visa. You should contact the potential employer to see if there are other opportunities that involve hauling things around Canada.

With that company I need to have the visa.
Am being hopeful that they have other duties within Canada that will allow me work in there.
It's a 2 year permit
Not sure if after a year of working I could apply for the visa within Canada maybe I'll stand a better chance.
Am awaiting a response from the company soon.
