deevick246: I was refused today by the V0 at counter 6 (Lagos). This is how it went down: If you are going for Spring session please add one travelling experience and you will have 30 point already and other details will boost it to 60% then you will have ur Visa.80% of people who got their Visa had travelling experience on old or new passport ...Try to study others things not question asking by VO alone.........Even South Africa embassy seek for travelling experience before you get Visa or ask you to pay repatriation fee.God will do it for you.[color=#990000][/color] |

Hello guys, I came across this page and i thought i'd share it with you. F-1 visa: how does a visa officer think 1. Show me your GRE score card? Purpose: The Visa Officer wants to see your academic abilities. Good Answer: Just show with a smile, looking in his/her eyes, no need to talk. Bad Answers: I do not have my GRE score report/ I never took the GRE test. 2. Why do you want to study at Univ xyz? Purpose: The Visa Officer wants to see your preparedness and focus on studies. Good Answers: Prestigious University with world ranking, Research areas match my interest/ I have funding. Bad Answers: Low fees/ My brother is in the same city. 3. Where all did you apply? Purpose: The Visa Officer is trying to analyze whether your purpose is studying or somehow reaching USA. Good Answer: I applied to A, B, C and D. – Whatever is the honest answer. If applied to more than 5, can mention 5. Bad Answer: I applied only to this university A, where I am admitted [Rejection imminent, unless that university is very famous] 4. Do you have any relatives in USA? Purpose: The Visa Officer is trying to analyze your ties to USA. Good Answers: My elder brother / Nobody [whatever is true]. You should not mention cousins or uncles. Only mention direct relations, eg, Parents, Siblings, Spouse, as per the visa questionnaire. Bad Answer: My second cousin and his friend live in USA. 5. What are your future plans? Purpose: The Visa Officer is trying to analyze your ties to your own country. Good Answer: Work in my country as…. Bad Answers: Work in USA/ I have not thought. [You are perhaps lying, but truth will lead to certain rejection - Sorry, this is how the system is designed] Above is the only example where we advise to tell what is expected answer, not necessarily the truth. VO is legally bound to reject the visa if you say I want to work in the USA. They know that most people do not come back. 6. Who is paying for your education? Purpose: The Visa Officer is trying to see if you can afford the education, else you will work illegally and stick around in USA. Good Answesrs: Got a RA/ My father will pay out of his savings. Bad Answers: Bank Loan/Sell property. Any fraud answer. 7. What is your area of research? Purpose: The Visa Officer wants to see your preparedness and focus on studies. Good Answer: True and simple short answer. Bad Answers: Vauge answer, Not decided yet, too generic answer, example, I want to do research in Electrical Engineering. 8. Show me your degree certificate? Purpose: The Visa Officer wants to see your authenticity. They sometimes look at the degree across the light, in a way some people check the authenticity of a currency note/bill. Good Answer: Just show with a smile, make eye contact, no need to talk. Provisional degree is acceptable. Bad Answers: No degree or even provisional/temporary one. Degree in a non-English language, unless that is very common in your country. 9. Why do you want to go to USA? Purpose: The Visa Officer is trying to analyze your ties to USA. Good Answers: Top universities in the world, exposure to current developments and research. Opportunity to experience the diverse culture alongwith top quality education. Bad Answers: Going to USA is a childhood dream. US is a great country, I like USA a lot. I love US Dollars. 10. How many brothers and sisters do you have? Purpose: The Visa Officer is trying to analyze your ties to your own country. Good Answer: True answer. Never hide existence of siblings wheter they live in your own country or USA. Bad Answer: Any false answer. Good luck to all visa applicants. Confidence and honesty [except on item 5] is the key to success. http://app2us.com/blog/visa/f-1-visa-how-does-a-visa-officer-think/ 5 Likes |

WARYZ: guys i tried finding out the prices of airlines on wakanow.com,but it keeps showing me this everytime I guessed your internet is very slow. After displaying just a moment, within 30 seconds, the flight details suppose to display ... I will advise guys to look for every airline detail so thatyou can enjoy best price.. For example, Turkish airline to Chicago is now 290k Egypt Airline to Newyork is 180k. Delta Local airline from NewYork to Chicago is 160dollars (26k) So total: 206k. The the second intinery might be stressful but at least if you are desperate to cut cost,it worked.. check all possible options. |

To everyone who has gotten their VISA: 1. Seek God. Pressures in America are more than the one in Nigeria. Money has lured many int'l students into homosexual, pls be careful.Girls will throw themselves to you, but remember that some are looking for lives to finish. Check youtube and read the story of some HIV positive Americans that decided to infect innocent lives because they were so angry. 2. Search for a local church and identify yourself with them. Please, search don't pick. There are many homosexual Churches. 3. I have heard this several times. Your first 3 weeks in America can determine your stay there. The kind of people you associate with in the first 3weeks. The kind of orientations that you acquired, etc. Why cant you draw you plan for the first three weeks. 4. Know what you want. 5. Read, read and read. Try be the best in your class and you will see how ways will be opening. 6. If you can afford two mobile phone lines, do. Nigerians think everyone that step out is fetching the cash on the tree and they will be mounting pressures on you. So, give one to stubborn people you know and one for your close relatives and friends. 7. Take advantage of your environment. |

@lanrypaddy Thanks Fø̲̣̣я̅ that info bro...but I have a doubt on the item 4, y can't one mention uncle since it was asked about relative...I think mention Ʊя̲̅ immediate family will be d worse senerio since it will show that one don't av enough tie 2 own country or wat do You think? Pls enlighten M̶̲̥̅ƺ on this.. Actually, when the VO asks if you have any relatives, he actually refers to a direct relative such as a brother, sister, father or mother because only a direct relative has the legal rights by the American constitution to file for permanent residency for you, that is if he/she is already naturalized there. So, well if you dont have any direct relative there, and he asks if you have any relative in the USA, the best answer is no, well, saying that you have an uncle/aunt/cousin as an answer may help as that automatically tells the VO that you have no one to file for PR for you when you get there. Also, if you do have a direct relative, dont lie about this because they may know, its in their records. When your sibling was filing for visa back then, he/she may have listed you as brother or sister even though you may not be aware of it. |

jimtosam: To everyone who has gotten their VISA: @jimtosam One's sexual orientation is fixed I think.

deevick246: I was refused today by the V0 at counter 6 (Lagos). This is how it went down: Oga,i think you were just unfortunate. The guy no want give u.He denied you based on ties and not the GRE only.After telling him you have not traveled out and not married,your chances were very low.Answering another No to the GRE was like pouring petrol to the fire. |

deevick246: @ imprexousxxx Don't you know where we know each other and begin chatting? It was about GMAT in June 2011. You said you are going for GMAT but not GRE and still I got both the two for you in Oct 2011. Later this year when I got to school you asked that I send you TOEFL materials and because of you I downloaded those TOEFL material I'm sending to others now and send it to you then including the links in case you need more yourself. Anyone who I ever sent those materials to, should help check if you won't see deevick email among please. You didn't say all these again till now. Anyway, I will still resend them now. |
