Why did you open a bank account in the US?
You definitely know this is illegal as you're not a resident of the country neither do you have business dealings there.. Best of luck to you when you go for your visa renewal and also at the port of entry next time you visit..you lots never learn

Since he's your fiance let him come to Nigeria to dove to U.S but let me tell you this that you've misrepresented before will come back to haunt you.

ekpotek:


Given your intentions. The Mexican visa will be much easier to get than the US visa. Meet her in Mexico get married, get a stay in Mexico, while she file for you to join her in the US. Give or take 5-6 years you will land in the US pronto!! Lol.

ethnicgirl:
good day forum members, pls i'm a little confused on some things and i'd appreciate it if you guys can help with answers.I got my visa in September to attend my uncle's wedding but due to some personal circumstances,i couldn't make the wedding.now,i have decided to travel after my exams in December for Xmas. but here's why am confused;

1.would i have any issues at POE just because i didn't travel for the wedding when i was supposed to since that was my main reason for applying for the visa?

2.the wedding was meant to be in texas but i have decided to use newyork as my POE. Texas is still going to be my final destination but i want the travelling experience and flights to newyork are relatively cheaper than flying to houston,texas.

3.Is it advisable to travel by road from newyork to houston for a first timer?if so,how do i arrange and pay for bus/train tickets.if not,would i have to book a connecting flight from newyork to houston before travelling?
pls guys i would love if you can really help me with this.this is going to be my first time travelling and i dont wanna make any mistakes especially at the POE.thanks

Chanbaby:
@seyewest thanks a lot I went to DHL office and I got it.

Blizzle:
My take: you will just have to explain yourself well to the CBP at POE giving a valid reason why you couldn't show up for the wedding.

As per going to Texas by road from NY, the trip alone will take like 2 days. Na long journey and if u decide to go by air it will set you back upwards of $500 dollars for a round trip. So weight ur options well.

Wow.it's indeed far.thanks for replying

1. The embassy recognises that families Often have different surnames. They do not require you to change your name. You may go with supporting documents cos I dunno if they look at those in SA. In Nigeria, they don't. To date, my passport is still in my maiden name and LordG and I aPplied at different times and got our visas.
However, in circumstances like yours, its more common to see the kids bearing the father's surname and not the mother's on their birth and travel documents. But if your story is legit, then you can be able to prove it.
2. I do not quite understand the question. Do you all intend to travel? Then yes, apply as a family if your ties are solid (work, salary, travel history etc). If you feel it isn't quite fantastic, then maybe you guys should have one parent stay back as a tie
I see you pm'd me. Sorry ma. I don't do pms for visa issues. I'm here to answer any question I can

LadyGuinivere:

That cannot be true that you did not see an answer.
The answer is that it is irrelevant if the conference is a paid one or not. What wull g'tee your visa is your home ties.
Transcripts have been shared of successful interviews. Some paid, some didn't. It dosent make any difference

seyewest:
@SexySan The first question I will like to ask you is that did you applied for B1 or Medical visa? if it was B1 then go ahead with your training and maybe get in touch with a doctor and get the necessary info you will need concerning birthing in U.S. Return to Nigeria and write the embassy about your intention to birth and ask for what to do.
You will have to leave your husband out of this for now maybe he can apply when you renew your passport to his name and he should come clean about his previous ''ish'' also you can travel with your mom if your serious about birthing in the U.S
God bless.

Hello ttmacoy.... Thanks so much...I truly appreciate your response... Is it possible for him to file the tax from here (Nigeria)...please I would like you to put me through the process... I expect your response ... Thanks

LadyGuinivere:

Visas are stamped on passports with at least 6 months validity. Do the math.
In my opinion , waiting for a month will not make any difference.Between the time you l pay to the interview date, will 1 month not have elapsed? That means carrying two passports up andan to travel.But its your choice.

A roundtrip from New York to Houston will never cost $250 let alone $500.
Before the poster travel.. he should purchase a ticket from New York(JFK) to Houston as of today it cost $90 but it will go down by next week tuesday and wednesday to around $55. Be patient
