Hi guys please I need your help, two years ago(2019) I had applied for a student visa I was issued my white papers and passport collected to have my visa printed on it, and 2days later when I check my visa status I was denied. And when I had gone to the reception center to get my passport back. It came with a slip pointing to the reason why I was refused under section 212(a) (6) (c) (I)...my question could I have been banned?? And for how long? What do I do if I have been banned before re applying? Please I need answers guys

you used an agent?

bettyLad:
I'm applying for US visa with my family ,paid for the visa fee through an agent since early February, the agent claimed to get a date for this year we need to pay 100k each . for a family of 5,I felt it was too much so we negotiated to 50k each , that makes it 250k for buying date ,I am yet to pay for that ,only made payment for visa fee and service charge. now I'm hearing that there's no available date for this year untill march 2022, , this agent is mounting pressure to pay for remaining 250k to buy date for this year and the way pressure mounting on me makes the whole thing suspicious. please is it possible that agent can buy date from the website cos when I also checked I saw next available date is for march , is It possible? this will be my second attempt with my family on the US visa ,, we are currently in UK now for holiday ,.I don't just want to waste more money .

It all depends on the school you are applying for, some schools may require you to evaluate your result, others just tell you to send them the original copy. So first check on the school.

thanks

Guys do you have to evaluate your WAEC results in other to apply to community colleges?

Hello boss, if you don't mind what airline did you use when for your trip.

Is it advisable to use Qatar or Delta?

Thanks

European airlines fly into the US everyday so don't know what you mean by Covid ban. I know someone that left Naija two weeks ago via KLM and is now in the US.

they only fly green card and citizens

You’re welcome. I remember the first time I filled my form, the cyber cafe I went to the guy was doing rubbish. I had to tell him to stop and that I will come back again. It’s better you fill it yourself

Did you indicate your mum's status in the US in all your applications, where it mentions relatives or family?

Two F1 refusals is a lot, you can go for it though but be ready to show your ties to Nigeria through your work here. An immigrant petition is not a barrier, if your mum petitioned you are a son and as such you cant switch when you are in the US so you would still need to come back to Nigeria for the processing.
Switching is only 'forgiveable' if the person petitioning is a spouse

who told you will still need to come to Nigeria for consular processing? Have you heard of adjustment of status?

Nnatuu:


I spent 4 weeks on each. 2016 and 2017.

F1 was denied based on 214b. I strongly believe it’s on the basis of “dual intent” because I applied for F1 just after I renewed B1 for a Christmas holiday in USA.

Asides my company, I am also employed as systems integration and design manager in a leading telecom firm here in Nigeria. And also have a daughter I live with. Been to the USA twice and never overstayed my visa or even get tempted to.

Are you saying that these may not outweigh the VOs presumption that I’m an intending immigrant?

Dual intent is not applicable to non immigrant visa. Sometimes 214b is just a generic reason for denying applicants. It could be that you got admission into a blacklisted school or you weren’t able to demonstrate why you wanted to study the course you were going for etc. having a B1/B2 normally increases your chances of getting an F1 visa,

Why was your F visa denied? The two times you went to the US how long did you spend? Having a pending immigrant petition makes it very difficult to get a non immigrant visa, but it can happen though but not common. You should look for a better reason to visit the US, going to visit a fiancee won’t hold much water because you can easily stay back and get married to her and become a resident. To qualify for a non immigrant visa you have to prove to the Visa officer that you no plans of living in the US.

Nnatuu:
Hello Gurus,

Please I need your guide on this situation:

I’ve been to then US twice. Got my visa renewed in Oct 2018.

Got notified on an admission fee weeks later so I applied for F1 but was denied.

And the B1 was revoked also(possibly due to dual intent)

I tried twice more for F1 but got refused. I was upset which made my mum file an immigrant petition for me so to allow me visit anytime without the visa hassles(I sincerely have zero intent of immigrating cos I’m gainfully employed and also own an IT startup that’s doing well here, basically wanted to go for additional studies then)

Now, I want t re-apply for a B1 to visit my fiancée and I want to know if the F1 refusals and the petition will count against me? And how can I deal with this if it will?

I just want to visit my fiancée who’s a student. That’s all. Your information will be appreciated via I don’t want to waste my busy time .

Make your money alone bro! Don’t worry

Anybody having same issues?

it happened to me in here in the USA

Slayyy001:

Good day house ,pls I want to ask a vital question .
So, the US consulate Lagos says B1/B2 will begin appearing for visa November 30.
So, I have a family friend who wants to do his wedding and wants to invite about 10 person( list is complete).

Can he still write to the embassy to notify them of the invite and the number of persons he’s inviting or what’s the best way ?
Cos he doesn’t wana waste time if they are not granting interview for b1/b2 till November 30?

Ur opinion will be appreciated .. thanks

if you don’t have a solid profile, the invite will be useless

DanerNo1:

It's all over the news in US. Also the Form about being a public charge is not necessary anymore.

how does public charge affect non immigrant visa ?

Ess:


It seems valid:

Where did you see this?

Jayjay0:

Alphahauk:
Hello everyone. pls I need advice, I just got invited to USA for my elder brother wedding and I would be playing the roll as the best man for the upcoming wedding. I wrote my final year exams in 2019 November but still yet to collect my statement of result due to closure of schools and COVID-19. I contacted the school and they told me that what I can get is Attestation letter from my department. My dad is going to be my sponsor for this trip.


Is there a chance?

yes

Happiness1186:
Hello.
I'm new to this platform but i have tried to follow up as much as i can. I recently got admitted for an MPH program for this Fall 2021. The question that bugs me however is that i have 3 little children, the oldest will be 4years and the youngest 2yrs by the time i plan to apply for my F1 and they were born in the US. I'm considering having them join me later with my mom after i have settled in but my husband will not be applying and i hope that guarantees him as a strong tie i have at home. My question: Is there a way to go about the application so i can secure my F1 and their being US citizens will not raise a flag when i'm applying. I paid all my hospital bills and have my zero balance. Is there any one with a similar experience or knowledge on how to go about this? please help.

Did you get any funding? Funding helps during interview. Is your school a top school?

Both, I’m from the states (my husband is Nigerian). Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. My family and parents moved to AZ almost 20 years ago and I followed shortly after. I love it here, beautiful warm weather year round and I’m close California, Vegas, Mexico and Hawaii. Lots of non-stop flights to places around the world (and the east coast) so I’m able to travel fairly easy.

cool.. I saw pictures from your Prague trip too. It was great. Keep up the good job

Mstravelindiva:


Nice, New Hampshire is such a beautiful state on the east coast!

yeah.. it is! What took you to AZ? Work or Family or both?
