A: You should still answer yes to this question , Its asking if you ever been refused a U.S. Visa, been refused admission to the United States, or withdrawn your application for admission at the port of entry?... And your son have been refused a U.S. Visa, the application is asking if you ever been refused visa and did not indicate time for that , as for the 5 years that is bar on admission and is not for this question
