Hello Visa Officer, My wife gave birth in the U.S we paid all our bills but when we went back to renew our Visa she was denied.The officer stated that she did not say she was going to give birth the last time and that she said she was not pregnant during the interview. The truth about this is that we were not asked if she was pregnant then because we went for the interview together. Kindly advise on how we can go about presenting our case to ensure she is not denied in subsequent appearance. Thanks for your time. |

VisaOfficer: I got a notification too.....but I'm scared....hope its not internet fraudsters? And I was made known by KCC that I'm gonna pay the Sum of $875 via western union transfer to a bank account in Poland and that after the payment I can choose any country for my interview. Kindly advise me on what to do and true is that? |

boldwet: These questions are about non-immigrant visas, not immigrant visas. Allow me to direct you to the non-immigrant visa thread at https://www.nairaland.com/1792662/u.s-non-immigrant-visas-listening . Thanks! |

OLOGOTA: Does it sound true to you? A bank account in Poland? Really? Also, it does not cost $875 to interview for the Diversity Visa program. The DV interview fee is only $330. And we would never ask you to send money by Western Union to a bank account in Poland. 1 Like |

Wow, just wow. Awesome job you are doing Visa Officer. I have 2 questions: 1. What happens if a person travels to the United States on a B1/B2 visa with an honest intention of only visiting. However, on the said visit, he gets offered a job. Does he return to apply for a different category of visa or is it possible that he extends his stay whilst in the country on the premise of the job offer? 2. Is the social security number permanent or temporary for a person who got it in the United States while on a J1 visiting status and returned to his country of residence? I just seek the clarification because in certain countries in Europe, that number is assigned to you for life. Thank you in anticipation and looking forward. Please, keep up the good work and God Bless You! |

VisaOfficer:@VO... I must commend you for good job you are doing here. I have 2 companies registered in New York since 2005, though I have EIN numbers for them. But no tax fillings since then, but thinking of emigrating to U. S now. First, I'm an Agropreuneur and thinking of starting a huge arable crop and livestock production in us, so now I'm trying to perfect my company's records and open bank account in us for that purpose. I have been prospecting for possible acres of land for my project in Texas, Florida, new York and Wyoming. So now I want to know if I can be helped by economic section of the embassy and what I need to migrate. ***Note: I was refused F-1 visa in 2004. Thanks. |

Good morning sir/ma, My name is Emmanuel, and I work for a health care group in Abuja. Thank you for the thread you opened in Naira land. I have traveled abroad for my masters in 2011/2012, as well as 2013 in London, and the Netherlands in 2012. I would be going for a health seminar in the U. S next month. Please I would like to know the type of questions I should expect, and any addition guidance that would help me pass the interview. Thanks Emmanuel. |

Hello VO I applied for a K1 visa in 2007, but was denied. Reason given was the officer thinks its a sham. To be honest it was not. I and my partner brokeup as the distance would not allow things work between us. We have since move on (i am married now). Please how do i sort this out and get my records right. Regards |

Sir/ma, Thanks for this wonderful job here...it really gave me the courage to open up on something that has being bothering my mind for long... I was in love with an american woman ,we met in 24/12/2002.And in june 2003 she came visiting and we were together for a week,before she was contacted by a guy through yahoo messenger and immediately she wasnt herself anymore,even crying to see the guy,i have to agree...and we are having an appointment with the internal affair ministry...so we ask the guy to meet us there...And the rest is history as she decide to go with the guy. And the following month after going back to the state she contacted me,telling me she dont know what came over her and she dont know why she did what she did...and that now she is pregnant and its for me...and when the baby came she sent her pics to me and the baby is now 11yrs old...My question is how am i gonna find out if she is really mine and how am i gonna claim my daughter if she is really mine as she claim? |

ABIOWO: I'm afraid that when a petitioner passes away, the petition is rendered invalid. However, please review http://www.uscis.gov/green-card/green-card-through-family/humanitarian-reinstatement to see if you would qualify for reinstatement somehow. |

Hello VO, My sister is a US Citizen and had filed an I-130 petition for my mum which was successful and will be traveling by the end of this month. My sister got married some months back and has now filed for her husband which has taken some time now and still nothing yet. My question is, pending the approval of her husband's petition, can she also file another petition or it's best to just wait until one is done before filing another? |

olushowunm: I'm afraid the Econ Section doesn't assist people with immigration issues. But please see http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/immigrate/employment.html and http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/immigrate/Immigrant-Investor-Visas.html -- it's possible that all the information you need is right there. A past F-1 refusal should not adversely affect this type of immigration application, unless you submitted false documents, etc. And even then, it is often possible to apply for a waiver. I'm not implying that this caveat applies to you -- I'm just throwing it out there for general knowledge. |

ebuka440: The 2015 Diversity Visa season is already under way, and the application period for the 2016 season is already closed. However, the application period for the 2017 season will once again open in October this year. You can always check the official site, https://www.dvlottery.state.gov/ , for more information. |
Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by VisaOfficer: 12:29pm On Jul 11, 2015 |
vDonald: I see you have slightly altered your question so that it is no longer specifically a non-immigrant visa question. At your next interview, you will be given the opportunity to explain. If you can convince the officer that you are telling the truth, and you qualify for the visa, you should be able to be issued a visa. |

charles424: I don't think I can help you, as these are not immigration questions, strictly speaking. A DNA test would settle your mind as to whether you are the child's father, but that's not something we can help you arrange. All I can tell you is that we often see DNA results from these laboratories: http://www.aabb.org/sa/facilities/Pages/RTestAccrFac.aspx As for claiming your daighter, it depends what you mean by "claim," but again, it's not a question that I as an immigration officer can assist you with. |

Fahaldi28: It's okay for someone to file multiple petitions at the same time. They won't adversely affect each other. (Unless someone files for, say, multiple spouses, or six parents instead of two -- and that happens once in a while! We do notice, too. ) |

VisaOfficer:Thanks for being direct on this question. Meanwhile is it possible for one who does not have anyone there to apply as an immigrant? If possible how much does it cost? |
Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by VisaOfficer: 12:46pm On Jul 11, 2015 |
ADENIKETINA2015: In some cases it is possible to immigrate through employment, or as an investor. Please see http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/immigrate/employment.html and http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/immigrate/Immigrant-Investor-Visas.html for more information. |

Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by VisaOfficer: 12:59pm On Jul 11, 2015 |
ADENIKETINA2015: If PR means Permanent Resident, yes, it does. But the correct term is Legal Permanent Resident. 1 Like |
