Have you two travelled to another country together before now? Does she have a permanent job with good pay here in Nigeria?

What was the purpose of the German visa? An unused German visa doesn't mean a thing to the US consulate.

sisit: If a petition is being filed for me and my husband is a beneficiary as would be stated in the form. Would that affect his chances of renewing his b1b2 visa despite the fact that he is not the primary applicant?


Can anyone pls assist with a response?

Many thanks

Hello,

I made a mistake on my DS-160 form in which i later filled another one. For the past 3 days, I have been trying to update my profile with the new DS-160 code i just filled but it kept giving me error "Error occurred while loading a visualforce page". Please what can i do as my interview is tomorrow morning.

Attached is the screenshot of the error message.

tzetzefly:

Yes, he can apply before October 1st.

As long as there's an available interview date.

And being mindful of the fact that the situation that led to an initial denial has changed or it was an initial error from a decision reached by the VO.

Thank you

The problem now is that he is not sure maybe there will be space for the interview this month again.

He is base in PH

Is dere anyhow he can check if a date is available in abuja within 22nd - 28th of this month.

Pls help

Hello Everyone,

It was nice to be part of this great forum. My B1/B2 visa was approved today. I am so grateful to God and to everyone that contribute to this thread. @tzetzefly is an amazing guy. At a point i felt he works at the embassy...lol. The questions from the VO was all centered around my friend that invited me and also about my job. The big white guy at window 9 didn't grant visa to anyone throughout the entire 1hr:20mins i spent at the embassy.

Interview Venue: Lagos.
Interview Time: 8:30am(But got to my turn like 10am)

VO: Good moring Mr Bleep (With a smile)
Me: Good moring sir.
Vo: I can see you are going to houston, Texas. why?
Me: I am going to spend my annual leave with my friend since i couldn't make it to his wedding last year due to my busy schedule.
Vo: what is your friends name?
Me: His name is blah blah
Vo: How long have you been friends?
Me: Since i was a kid. We are childhood friends.
Vo: So Are u married?
Me: I am married.
Vo: I can see u are going alone, why isn't ur wife going with u?
Me: She just a new job and she isn't entitled to a leave yet.
Vo: When did you marry?
Me: 3 months ago (June)
Vo: Any kids?
Me: Not yet.
Vo: So tell me about your job, u sounded like a busy person (That was a green light for me. lol)
Me: I am a System Administrator for XYZ Company.
Vo: What is your job role?
Me: A,B,C,D...........
VO: What is the staff strenght of your office?
Me: 200 in Nigeria.
Vo: So u've got other branches?
Me: We are located in 11 countries.
Vo: Great (Another green light for me....)So tell me what your friend does and where he works?
Me: blah blah
Vo: How old is your friend? (I knw i am a year older than my friend but at that point the issue was that i forgot my own age for some seconds b4 i later did my calculations.....lol)
Me: He is XX years old.

The white guy smiled at me and said " Congratulations, your visa has been approved, you can pick up your visa on.........."

Its all God because i really can't xplain. There are people that have more genuin reasons for going to the US but yet got denied. Imagine, a wife of a VC of a University was denied, a sick laddy limping was denied.

NB: Pls maintain eye contact, be confident answer questions without .........."ehm", "ehn".....Above all, Pray to God for favour. Thanks T

God bless you all.

Hello guru, I have been following the trends on the forum for a while now and here is my issue.
Pls I applied for US M1 Visa between June - September, 2013 and 3times in a row and was denied which I don't know and not until the last VO asked me about my strong ties I realized I messed up with no married and no job status.
I am a geophysicist in an oil and gas company now and have been working since November 2013 till date and my company want to send me to an international Geophysics exhibition in the US by next 2015.
Please what's my chance of getting the Visa as I already travel to Kenya and Dubai.
Your advice asap sir. Thanks

skimmeh1: even at that, she can not fly with that passport which the visa was approved in. The Airlines also stick to these principle as part of flight condition. So advice your sister to go get her passport re-issued.

Re: Usa Visit Visa by ekpotek: 5:23am On Sep 22, 2014
Hi house. I was issued a US 2 years visit visa last month. I had entered in my DS 160 form that my point of entry and exit would be Atlanta as I am going to New Orleans for a conference. I also stated that my arrival date will be 30th Sept. Now I want to go through Dallas and arrive a day earlier as this ticket is cheaper and I have got another invitation to attend a preconferemce meeting on the 30th. My concern is will there be any issue at point of entry at Dallas for change in travel plan and route? Note I have travelled to US before, that was in 2008.

Just explain this to them at the POE. Occasionally, the officer at the POE might drill you to ask why changing your plan. I was drill also during mine ,I filled the Ds 160 that I was going to Denver Colorado, ended up going to Minneapolis Minnesota. The officer drilled me why I changed my plan as it was not what I told the visa officer when I applied for the visa, but I explained and he understood

I applied fr a visitors visa sumtyms in feb wit my wife and son but was refuesd. We got an invitation from a very senior family friend of mine. I was told by a friend then that d reason for my refusal is becuz of my age and dat of my wife (26 & 25 respectively but this is our true age and what is on our passport) and also becuz of the salary i quote i was earning (323k). Am an operational manager in an hotel and my wife and i also run an hospitality firm togeda. Now we intend applying for anoda visitors visa what is our chance of getting one dis tym.
