Ha! More children ke. Lol. We have 2. Oldest 5 yrs old, youngest 7 months old.

You haven't answered the question on how your family members got into the US. Also, what was the outcome of your Canada TRV application? Hopefully your info with both embassies are in sync with each other though.

You require some quality travel to surmount this hurdle amongst other ties to bring to the table IMO however....

Greetings house. i will appreciate the response from anyone. i am a married woman with 2 children and a good job(over 3 years with current employer) i have an extensive travel history(Studied in senegal and kenya, traveled to the UK more than once, traveled to Dubai, schengen countries(Netherlands, Spain and paris). This week was my 5th attempt at trying to get an American visa with my 2 daughters. hubby and i decided that the children and i should apply in order to increase our chances that we are leaving someone back in Nigeria but our application was refused. prior to this refusal, i have applied 3 times alone( 2 times for my siblings wedding ceremony) and 1 time to attend a conference. hubby and first daughter applied also applied together and were refused.
Obviously there is something wrong. i have made inquires if i have been banned(that's the worse i could think of) but i was told that is not the case. i have never overstayed in any of the countries i have visited.
i have 2 siblings living and working in the united states and are both legal. i have no intention what so ever to overstay.
any advise will be appreciated. thank you

I guess your information might not be consistent in your ds160 form.

The outcome of our TRV was a refusal with family ties and travel history checked as the reasons for the refusal. It was an online application. I uploaded only my copies of previous visas( didnt attach that of hubby and then 1 daughter). Requested for the note from Cic; it didnt say otherwise.
my sister moved from the uk to America via k1 visa.
My brother is married to an american. Both ceremonies took place in America.

Many people have been saying travel history. . . Does that mean if u haven't travel before your visa will not be approved. Pls I need more light.

Good day
Experts in the house. I just stumbled on this thread but I have really learnt a lot!
I need some guidance please
I want to apply for my wife and son (11 yrs) for a two week visit this summer. So I need confirmation that I got the steps right

1. Pay for visa fees for both (separate ,2 receipts)
2. Complete separate DS-160 for both, but we fill my son’s form first so we then attach his form to my wife’s at the end?
3. In the DS-160, I am a bit confused how we upload passport photo since we cannot snap from mobile phone, do we just scan the passport photo then resize it with the online tool?
4. For appointment confirmation - will it be 2 or1 appointment confirmation printed.
5. Finally, my son’s passport expires in July (less than 6 months) can we apply with this passport but get a new passport for the summer trip
Would appreciate detailed response and any other helpful info in case I missed anything. Thanks so much!

Go to a photographer and ask him/her for the soft copy of the passport photograph.... Get your son another passport.

abeg no vex, I no grab. My passport was issued 29 of September 2017 and will expire 28 September 2022, am I good to apply for the visa?

You can be issued passport today and use it to apply for Visa tomorrow.

The int passport is the document that you can use to travel to other countries. You Just have to ensure that the passport expiration date is not less than six month by the time you intends to travel oversea

Good evening house, i want to apply for US visa and i really need ur sincere opinion pls.
I got married 2016 but no issue between us yet, though I have a daughter of 12years old who was staying with my mum before but just moved in with us. I'm a civil servant earning about 125k monthly and I ve been working for the for about 8years same place, I'm also into petty business which is earning me more than my monthly salary. My leave is schedule for April and I wish to spend d 2weeks out of it in the US. I'm planning to go alone because hubby doesn't have a job and we believe it may have a negative impact if we apply together. Pls I want to know if it will be okay to apply alone? Also if my salary is okay for me to apply because I heard someone said one must earn big salary before one can be issue us visa? Lastly, what are the documents needed for the interview? I will really appreciate ur kind response.

Hello house, I am asking this question in regards to my parents.

My have a 2year visa to the U.S which they have been traveling and coming back to Nigeria concurrently.

They have 6months left to their visa, and my question is, can they go ahead and buy their flight ticket to the U.S, or should they renew their visa before they plan to visit again?

They're actually planning on staying in the U.S for 3months before coming back to Nigeria, but they're scared that they may be refused entry when they get to the U.S.

Also, if supposing they want to renew their visa now before traveling, do they need a fresh invitation letter from their siblings who are PR residence there, or they can just go ahead and fill in the information they filled in last time with the invitation they had?

Thank you.

Thank you.

LadyGuinivere:

I have no idea why you were refused.
However, if I were a virgin, I would refuse you based on your work answer.
What is your loan recovery strategy?
Your answer: we first sent text message.....
What is that?! I too worked in a financial institution and know that before loans are approved, KYC evaluation is done. So if a customer defaults, isn't it logical that the first strategy would be to find out why? And make enquiries if the money Don loss, the possible means to recoup it.
All this one before sending text. Text message Sef no make any sense cos a loan demand based on contract should be by formal correspondence..

Well. Pele o

Thanks LadyGuinivere.
Know Your Client evaluation will be done prior disbursement and its the policy of my company to notify the defaulter by text/mail of the default before embarking on loan recovery(Calling, visiting or Legal). Thanks all for your kind responses.

They don't have any problems as long as they have not overstayed during any of their previous visits.

They also do not need to renew yet as they can still travelled with the validity left of their visa. A friend' landed POE the day her visa expires and she was still stamped 6 months even though she doesn't even have time to stay even up to 2wks.(Note I don't recommend this)

And I don't think they will have problem if they want to apply afterwards.

How old are they?

I wanted to comment when I saw you post but I just waka pass becos discussion go kanku if I start, but am now forced to

Why even open an account in the first place without conducting KYC talkless of giving out facility?

I believe the Vo expected you to mention how not to allow a credit even go bad at all in the first place. Your response on recovery strategy was not a strategy but I see it as a normal activity a bank should do ordinarily

I handled credit for 5 years (corporate and retail) before I did product mgt and I still do credit. As for recovery strategizes, it is expected that you put in place mitigants to prevent default. The core obj/ function of banking operations is to collect funds from those who have and give to those who do not have hence generating revenue for the bank. So with that at the back of your mind knowing that the bank generated revenue wch in turn will be used to pay your salary, you sud ensure from the onset that you give quality credit that should not go bad.
First endure the facility has the capability to make repayments as at wen due
Carry out periodic and regular follow-up/ relationship mgt
If need be, disbursement should be done in tranches and monitor the progress of the facility and the purpose which the facility is meant for to prevent diverting the purpose of the facility

... e plenty but typings no be my thing, tires me out besides I prefer to talk so that I can do other things.

I feel you didn't portrayed yourselves as what you claimed to be to the VO considering your length of years on the job.

I feel you now see reasons why some people here have been clamouring that your edu background vis a via your job function sometimes place a role in obtaining visa. I bet you some of these VOs are highly intelligent and are abreast with what is obtainable in various sectors.

Hope I've been able to make some sense.

I all the best in your next trial, I think you should reapply

It only increases your chances. Most applicants have family and work ties. I have been reading so many transcripts on this thread, very few people get visa without travel history

Yes, don't assume they should know. Fill every form completely and correctly

How much do you plan to spend on this trip? How much is your annual income? I think you should be able to come to a conclusion.
