Dear VO, please what could be classified under professional ties. Is it professional qualifications like membership of a professional body or what? |

I applied for a b1/b2 visa renewal under the Dropbox program. This is my second time of using the dropbox. My passport was returned with a letter stating I should schedule a follow up interview. I have been trying to do this on the CGI portal and it doesn't pull up any interview date. My application was submitted on the 12th of January 2018. The letter I received did not request any additional document but only ticked that I need to speak with a consular officer. How do I schedule an interview date? My passport has been returned to me. Does this technically mean a visa denial? My NIV status still shows administrative processing. Thank you. |

Hello LagosNIV Can I request that my B1 visa application under 221g Administrative processing be cancelled? I have no need for the visa anymore even if it pulls through. Can I apply for another class of visa while B1 is still under Administrative processing? |

Hello LagosNIV, I recently got my i20 to study in the United States for Fall 2018 (2nd Bachelor's degree). However it says on the i20 that "Lessons begin on the 23rd of August 2018" and "Earliest admission date is July 15". When can I apply for a visa? Should I start counting 3 months backwards from August 23rd or July 15? I also want to know if it's 100% required that I present my original Bachelor's degree during the visa interview because the ongoing NASU strike has been halting that process since December 2017. I've got my transcript which I used in obtaining the admission and all other documents ready. Please reply. Thanks |

Good Day House, I applied for US Visa and I think the Visa Officer was convinced of my application and answers. However, I was given a paper to forward my Bank Statement to ascertain my capability of sponsoring my trip. Note- I didn't go with a bank statement |

Hello Naomi98 - Minors who are applying for a visa may be accompanied by one adult who is not also applying at the same time. We prefer that the adult be one of the child’s parents, but in some circumstances other adults may do so. We cannot give you advice as to how to prove your relationship. Try to look at the situation from an outsider’s perspective. What would it take to convince you that an adult is the parent of a particular child? LagosNIV Naomi98: |

Hello Ma2seater - Please contact lagosniv@state.gov if your case is pending in Lagos or consularabuja@state.gov if your case is pending in Abuja. In many cases your visa application can be cancelled. You can apply for another class of visa while a b1b2 application is undergoing administrative processing, however, it is likely that the new application would also need to undergo the same administrative processing.

Thanks LagosNIV, I have gone and returned back to Nigeria as planned without any hitches. I however need some clarification to avoid making costly mistakes.I got married in February 2017 and my wife's Nigerian passport with her maiden name expires in 2020. My visa expires in April 2018 and my passport expires in February 2019. I want to renew my visa and make a fresh application for her so that we both can attend a family function slated for 2018 Labor Day weekend in July. My questions are: - Can I apply for my wife on her current passport with her maiden name or do I have to obtain a new passport for her bearing my surname? -Can I reapply with a passport that expires in February 2019 or do I also have to obtain anot her one? Moreover as my circumstances have changed due marriage. I await your response so I can know the next step to take. Thank you. LagosNIV: |

Hi, I'm a student, just came home last weekend for the mid-semester break(2weeks)to renew visa. I have the dropbox option but decided to go for interview cos I have limited time. I missed my monday morning appointment due to travel delay. I ended up paying a new visa fee at GTB. Now I got an approval for emergency appointment since thursday, but was not able to schedule a date for the new appointment. Was displaying "your group size is larger than current allocation". Really weird cos I am just myself, no dependent, no group schedule. I called and was told their technical team will handle it. A case was already open since thursday but yet to be resolved. Now I have only this week left and still have the dropbox option, I was wondering if the processing time can be fast-tracked (based on emergency approval) if I go for drop box option? |

Dear All, Please lovely people, please can someone share some insight about my issue I am attending my graduation in the USA after completing my online MBA with my mum and I kindly seek your opinion on the following 1. Please what detail should I fill in : Address where you will stay in the U.S.? is it the school's address or the hotel I will lodge's address? 2. Also how do I link my mums application with mine so that we are both interviewed together? 3. I have uber apart from my normal work so what should I provide in the salary section? should I add the monthly uber money with my salary or only my salary? Thank you

Visa Fee Increment I am trying to confirm if truly there will be an increment in the B1/B2 (an other categories) Visa fee in the nearest week. Kindly confirm this |
Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by Nobody: 3:31pm On Mar 21, 2018 |
Hello wizzzz - The process you have described is not legal. You may only apply for a visa to the US from outside the US. You do not need to return to your home country to reapply for a visa. Some people visit our Embassies or Consulates in other countries, including Canada or Mexico, to re-apply. One other thing to bear in mind is that the period of stay for students is not tied to the validity of the visa. So long as you remain in student status, you may remain in the US, even if your student visa has expired. You would need a new visa, however, should you depart the US and wish to re-enter. I hope this helps, LagosNIV wizzzz: |

Dear VO, Pls how do you handle a case of someone that gave birth twice in the US, paid all her bills and collected zero balance letters. Subsequently applied for renewal via drop box and was invited for interview. The officer asked for all the receipts , she gave all itemised and zero balance letters, he flipped through and told her she was given huge discount . She responsed that she was self pay and the hospitals usually give discount to self pay international patients. The vo looked at the birth certificate and told her you said you are resident there that is why the birth certificate has a u.s address on it. She said no, not at all that she said she is international and even gave the hospital her passport. That the address on the birth certificate and even receipts were for correspondence since they asked for a local address incase they want to post things, that they dont post internationally or send emails. The VO denied her the visa. She called the hospitals and they said she is not owing them as stated in her zero balance letter. Pls whp can she talk to? |
