Thanks for your detailed answer! I feel a little more confident now.

Hello,

I would like to know what experiences people have had during their visa interview, especially when it comes to the sponsor question. I am trying to figure out who to use. If :

-  A "friend" might raise suspicion.
- "Aunt" might raise suspicion (will they ask you to prove this?)
- "God mother" (will they ask to prove?)
- "boyfriend"  (will obviously raise a flag!)


I have read the us immigration website and understand everything you need for apply for a visitors visa. But ultimately the decision is left to the interviewers discretion. I believe i fall into the most scrutinized group (26yr old SINGLE Nigerian female)  so i am being extra cautious.

I have had a job at an oil company for 1 year (3 yr contract), and have a very active account (i am also paying for my trip)  and a god mother willing to write me a letter
