Pheleecity13: If you don’t have a job in academia or federal ministry, traveling to the US for postgraduate studies with your own funds is like passing through the eye of needle. Very rarely they issue visa because you have no home ties. But with packaging, one can land the visa without issues. |

Nigerians talk too much. The last 2 answers are the reason you were denied. Always answer the question you are asked. Don't give long answers or unnecessary information. |

@op, my mantra is that whatever is your own is your own. God's time is always the best. I did an visa interview with the USA embassy in Abuja in April. I was applying for the H1-B visa. I was only asked two questions. 1. What's your highest degree? 2. How much will you be earning? Less than 5 minutes interview and I received the visa. However, the person before me and after me were students (F visas) and both were denied. The fact is, I have always wanted to go to the USA. I wrote the SAT for undergrad, wrote the GRE and TOEFL. I paid application fees. All to no avail. Fast-forward after I got my PhD, an organization sponsors my work permit to the USA. It felt like a mirage but it was God's timing. Please don't let the refusal bother you. Dust yourself up and apply again. Don't give up! 7 Likes |

dimexy247: I am going to let you on a secret. The number one reason most Nigerians get Visa refusals are not looking directly into the examiner's eyes when one is being asked a question. The first indicative sign that someone is telling a lie is trying to avoid making eye contact when answering a question "Goddammit look in my eyes and repeat whatever crap you just said" That is American's favorite expression. 6 Likes |

I guess you were denied because you were elaborating unnecessarily which can potentially be suspect as lying. Not saying you are lying, but simple answers would have been enough, without suggesting a leading next question from your replies or trying hard to be convincing (you can unknowingly sound desperate). 80% of the decision to approve or deny you the visa is computed from the data u have provided in your application. The remaining 20% is to defend that data and just match the persona to the profile. Since I can't tell what is on your DS application form, I can guess your representation didn't pair with your application content very much. 2 Likes |

two things working against you , first is tough luck, there is no expert when it comes to USA visa interviews, i know someone that gave complete different answers to what she wrote in the form, and yet the vo gave her the visa the second thing that worked against you in my own opinion and even if i were the vo i won't give you is the fact that you talked too much, you trying to impress the vo with ur father's accomplishments and what you intend to do. it shows you were just trying to please. be natural with any lie you are given, if truly your father is who you say he is , you won't need to go into too much detail about him, you even mention how much he makes in a year (red flag), always keep your answers short and precise, no long talking Pheleecity13: 1 Like |

Re: Visa Denied by smart8956: 10:39pm On Jul 21, 2023 |
For the benefit of others All consular office has a camera pointing Infront of you while you seated there talking. It's like applying for loan with a fintech app and they're analysing your score. At the end it's approved or rejected. Some people go with less money in their account and visa was given, some had nothing at all. Some even with British passport, Visas got denied. Let me break down from experience. 1. The camera: Once you're seated in front make sure you speak smartly. The camera is busy analysing your face if you're a terrorist, wanted scammer or had any criminal records etc. Remember USA, UK, Canada and all those countries are very strict with giving men visas compared to women. The FBI and immigration upload records to their database and everything can be checked in matter of minutes. 2. Time: There are other people waiting, sometimes they'll not tell you your time is over. Be specific in your answers and make it short. E.g are you married? No. Have you ever been to US? No. Who's sponsoring? Parents. DONT SAY DAD. Don't over stressed. They know, they've open your passport and they've seen no previous visa but they have to asked and see your response. It's logic. 3. Be sensible: Like in your case, you're going as a student, and you were ask, Do you have a relative in US? Your response should've been No. They believe if you answer Yes, then you should provide your relationship with her. They don't want that connection except she was the one who sent you invitation. There are many involved in drugs, terrorist, and gangs... So they wouldn't risk joining you with her unless it's verified. Since you're going as a student, best answer could've been, No. I'm covered by the school. This means accommodation, fees and everything is under the school as you stated in your application. Not to bring in your friend or relatives here. In my case, I make sure what I submitted in application tally with what I said including the contact persons. If you mention your friend, then that friend must be a student from the same school because before your interview they've place a call or verify his address already waiting to hear your feedback. I won't explain more due to time but student or work visa has limitations and you must be smart. 4. Avoid pride: They don't care if your dad is the senator. Sometimes even when you're traveling with him, they'll interview all of you. It's you not your dad. In this case be specific because you've already submitted application and they've seen and verify what you've submitted. Here you would've answer the question who's sponsoring you as "father" or if both parents you say "parents". Not dad! Next you're ask what does he do. You replied "He's a business man". Here they might want to test you by asking again what business? This is when you say " importer/exporter". That's all. They may go deeper to ask what exactly, then you can now specify if cars, spare parts etc. Not you stating how much he's making and all of that. Where you ask? They know for someone to do importation or export goods he has foreign currencies. Remember they've information about him already from application you submitted earlier. 5. Finally, your contact person in US is very important. Every consular wants to know where you'll stay when you move in there. They don't want people to go add up with existing refugees. In your case you say school, the university has provided accommodation and you provide correct details with contact persons. In my case I gave the school phone, and my colleague phone. This colleague of mine we had communicated on WhatsApp school group. So if they call him he can say he's a student in the same school and they're all expecting to see you join them that classes had begun. This doesn't matter whether he's or not a student, but the claim should make sense. Also, your last respond about coming back to Nigeria. That's another error. They know that there's no employment in the country and many are traveling out to seek jobs outside. They believe you're lying. Every consular must ask this question because you're not expecting to over stay in that country once your program as a student has ended. Here your response would been: I'll return home after my program to contribute to my country experience in the field I pursued. But if by excellence I'm given opportunity to work in US, I'll get appropriate papers with immigration and work. They want to hear that immigration and your sincerity. You're coming from a poverty corrupt country and they know once you get in its unlikely for you to return home. So be specific and sincere in your answers. I hope this helps.
