Austine2020: I hope you understand my purpose in this post. To renew your mind so madam can have a transformed attitude for the nnext interview. And not to make u feel bad or anything. Every case is treated differently. Though the circumstance may seem similar, they can never be. I can point out some from the scenario u posted Mil and FIL , how long did they declare they were staying? What was the purpose of the trip? Shebi they were there together? Then you consider their ages. The likelihood of them hustling or getting into an arranged marriage is low. Again, you have to realise that each vo has been empowered to grant or deny visas based on certain yardsticks PLUS instinct and discretion. So the discretion could be wrong or right, but by their standards, its allowed. It would have been a different case if she had said I'm staying 5 months or by the purpose of the trip a longer stay becomes justifiable egs childbirth or a business meeting that dragged on. They do not want anybody to feel, I have avisa hence I can stay as i want. So once u come to that realisation u understand the importance of declaring your purpose and length of stay correctly. @popri I'm blushing. I thank thee 10 Likes |

sugah: Well ts jst a douvle edged sword really and could swing anyways. A) since theres no regulation banks and any individuals willing to sell can quote a price that suits dem. B) if we receive foreign direct investments as is speculated as being the reason for the policy change then d market is controlled by investors and trust me...no matter how they couch their philanthropy, no businessman is here to count bridges. Meaning they call d shots. C) its supposed to edge out mallams as dollars is expected to yapa in d market. (The speculation is that people will unload their dollars for fear of a loss from market crash. So alot of people will be willing to selloff their stash for a slightly lower price dan N360-$1 before the price drops). However it could work d oda way. These mallams hav Godfathers who will mop up d market and we still end up buying from mallams. 3 Likes |

LadyGuinivere:Thanks Lady G for the advice,. but she has enough strong ties with her 2 kids and her husband at home, our original marriage certificate, Our wedding and family pictures,her work appointment letter and pay slips, i even told her to go there with my company documents including my company statement of account and her own personal statements of account,all with good flow in and out of cash and a big balance afterall. All those things were not asked, just those 2 or 3 things that i wrote. I will just say that she fell in the hand of a wicked visa officer who woke up in a bad mood that day,if not,this couldn't have happened.But i have taken it in good faith and i have told her to reapply. she came back today,then tomorrow she will start the process of reapplying. |
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 4 by sugah: 8:17pm On Jun 15, 2016 |
^^^oga Austine2020 her answer "I was stamped for 6months so I decided to stay for 2 months instead of 2weeks" does not really support the strong ties IMO. If she could tell the VO she 'just changed her mind' about how long she was staying just because she was stamped in for 6months don't you think the VO wouldn't see the kids as a strong enough tie? Or was she with the kids on that trip? Was she with her whole family? She changed her mind on a wimp. She can decide not to return to Nigeria at all on her next trip...... That's what I think anyways.... I wasn't the VO. 13 Likes |
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 4 by abbeykun: 8:37pm On Jun 15, 2016 |
IMO i feel you are not keeping an open mind. Or why did you ask for advise or tots in the first place if you won't wanna see reason with them? I understand how you feel, but i think you should try look at this from a neutral perspective where Lady G n co advised from. It may as well have been how you speculated as vo being in a bad mood (but remember, you weren't there). Rather than insist on your opinion, why not take the several advice you got and ensure they are better prepared for next time should you/ she reapply. And as per reapplying, i think i've read somewhere before for one to wait for a period of X- days (can't remember the duration again) before reapplying so as to properly have proofs of what changed between the last interview and the current one. All the best... Austine2020: 5 Likes |

sugah: OK. To clear the air on the new forex regime, there is nothing like official rate anymore. CBN will only participate occasionally, they have appointed primary dealers. With this new regime that will start on Monday, anyone can work to any bank or primary dealers and buy FX at the rate that market forces will determine. The rate could be 250 today and 400 the following day. BDC guys and the abokis would close shop soon cos no one will be patronising them. For intending America mamas, it's going to be mixed feelings, BTA/PTA will be probably be abolished. While your Form A will no longer be at the rate of 199 or whatever, it will now be determined by market forces of demand and supply. I hope it's clear a bit for my people here....... 9 Likes |

julzz: OK. We have been there, and it turned out bad. In our own case, nothing like pregnancy during interview, pregnancy came 4months after visa was issued. We couldn't travel for vacation due to father inlaw's sickness (later died) and burial. We decided to give birth in Yankee, tried to process visa for mama, na dia katakata happen. Told mama to say na childbirth she wants follow go do. Naso VO said we lied during interview. To cut long story short they called all of us for interview and guess what after few discussion visas were cancelled. Be guided, let her use the Visa for the actual purpose first. 4 Likes |
