Traveling to US to meet my fiancé [closed]

My fiancé was a student last year when I applied visa from India and it got rejected. This year she is working and I am planning to apply again. I have a stable job, bank balance for the trip. Shall I just say that I am going on a trip with my fiancé who is already there for 15 days? Just mentioning the number of days myself so that visa officer doesn’t think I am staying forever. Please suggest.

Yes, you should say that.

It is good idea to be honest when you're passing the interview. Your other alternative is lying or hiding the information - but the consular officers are trained to spot lies or digging out the suppressed information. And being caught in this might have far worse consequences than being rejected again.

However I also suggest to spend more time to prepare your case better, especially considering your past rejection. To qualify for the B1/2 visa you need to overcome the presumption of immigration intent. If your fiance is working in the US - as stated in comment it is a bit unclear - visiting her would actually contribute to the presumption of immigration intent, making your burden greater. Neither bank balance for the trip nor a stable job guarantees your return, so you need to bring more evidence which would overcome the presumption that you'd remain in USA.

Can I travel to USA to visit my fiancÃ©?

Yes \u2013 your fianc\xe9 may visit the US, so long as they have a valid B-1/B-2 visa or ESTA. However, your fianc\xe9 should expect more scrutiny at the border. Filing a K-1 fianc\xe9 visa application is evidence that your fianc\xe9 intends to travel to the US and remain there as a permanent resident.

Can I travel to the US while my fiancÃ© visa is being processed?

There is no law that you are not allowed to visit your significant other while you are going through the K-1 process. But you need the right circumstances showing that you maintain ties to your home country, and most importantly an intent to return.

Can I travel to USA to see my husband?

Common-law spouses and partners may be eligible to apply for B-2 visas. If they wish to visit for vacations only, they may apply for visitor (B-2) visas, or if qualified, travel visa free under the Visa Waiver Program (VWP).

You Must Meet Two-Year Meeting Requirement Prior to Filing Fianc\xe9(e) Visa Application. During the two years before you file the Form I-129F Petition for Alien Fianc\xe9(e), you must meet your fianc\xe9(e) in person. Keep a close eye on the calendar.
