Letter of Explanation

2013年3月，我因为申请去瑞典哥德堡自由行，在办理签证的时候被拒绝了，理由有5点：1、离婚而有移民倾向；2、外出旅游让母亲照顾6岁女儿；3、不会英语；4、行程表不确定；5、没去过申根国。现在我作如下解释：

In March 2013, I was refused to grant a visa to Gothenburg, Sweden for self-service traveling due to the following 5 reasons: 1. Divorced with immigrant intent; 2. Leaving my mother to take care of my 6-year-old daughter while travelling abroad; 3. Unable to speak English; 4. Uncertain about the travel schedule; 5. Never been to the Schengen states. Now I explain it as follows:

1、移民倾向。难道单身就不能去瑞典旅游吗？这样会拒绝很多单身，同时又非常向往瑞典旅游的女士！而且我是机关工作人员，有稳定不菲的收入，还有自己的房子和车子，我怎么会留在瑞典不走呢？

1. Immigrant intent. Being a single is an excuse to decline a request for traveling to Sweden? If so, you would refuse a lot of single women who are very yearning for a visit to Sweden! In addition, I am working for a State organ with stable and high income, and I have my own house and car, how can I stay in Sweden and never leave?

2、让母亲照顾女儿。在国内，外婆照顾外甥女非常普遍，当年轻的妈妈有事要外出的时候。

2. Leaving my mother to take care of my daughter. In China, it is very common that the grandmothers take care of nieces, especially when the young mothers have to go out.

3、不会英语。签证官问我问题的时候，恰好旁边的签证窗口有人在大声说话，所以，我就让签证官重新问一遍。哑巴英语，听和说确实差了点。

3. Unable to speak English. When the visa officer asked me questions, someone at the next visa window was talking loudly, so I asked the visa officer to repeat the question. My English listening and speaking are a little poor as a mute English learner.

4、行程表不确定。因为我第一次申请去申根国家玩，且是一个人自由行，没有经验，随便在网上找了些地方写了个行程表。

4. Uncertain about the travel schedule. Because it is my first time to apply for travelling to the Schengen states independently with a lack of experience, I wrote this schedule based on some materials found on the Internet casually.

5、没去过申根国。因为是最近才有财力与时间去国外旅游，所以没去过什么国家。

5. Never been to the Schengen states. I have never been to other countries because I didn’t have enough money or time to travel abroad until now.
