Please house, has anyone experienced this?

I made a mistake in my Visa application, UKVi got in touch that I should withdraw and apply under correct category otherwise, they will make a decision based on available info in my application.

I have since sent a withdrawal notice to the email given but it's been 4 working days now and haven't heard from them.

I am devastated and feel so down now.

I don't know why you give this VOs too much props...well, I guess it's just props but @mroyato is right with the observation cos as it is right now, if you're single and (or) without travel history on the B1/B2 visa application, you will be bounced. Don't waste your money. Doesn't matter if your intent are genuine or not; I know this cos I was there today with my colleague. We applied for the same visa, tho she's married but y'all know how a young man like to have his things together before settling cos he wants his kids have a better life than he'll ever have. The following background details is why @mroyatoy is right.

My company, a fully licensed IMTO in the U.S and Nigeria was to send two of us (all expenses) paid to the biggest International Money Transfer and Payment Conference in the US, Whole idea is to network and meet new partners to expand our services and demography. Let me reiterate that I'd been denied visa one time for the 2007dv lottery which I stated on my application, after which I got my degree and comfortably earning a high six figure with assurance of a secured job; so you know I'm not desperate for a US visa to settle for a meager $9/hr life. My colleague (female) married, with a travel history to Dubai & SA got approved tho; so No, you don't stand a chance if you don't have a strong home ties and travel history. Your fate has already been 100% decided if without home ties and T. History and 50% decided if you have the afformentioned.

You know you don't stand a chance when they cut you off between answering a question and asking just this 4 questions which are as follows:

1. Why are you going to the US?
4. What do you do for work?
2. Are you married?
3. Have you ever traveled out of Nigeria before?

*modified*

The reciprocity fee is still effective, note to all intending interviewee.

Hahaha lol, those four questions sealed my faith on Monday. Have u travelled out before? The moment I said no, you can imagine lol

agbulagu:

Me: yes
Vo: how many?
Me: 3
Vo: you travelled out before?
Me: no, this is my first attempt
Vo: oh no sorry you're not qualified for us visa at this time.... blablabla
So I just waka jeje disappointed
But just like I said, people still get visa approved just that the process seem more difficult now. All the best bro, just make sure you dot all your I's and cross all your t's then hope for the best. A man before me got his own though it seems he has travel history.

Just left the embassy disappointed. However I noticed that the popular view that visas are not being approved is NOT true afterall

ozymes:
Just be yourself, be truthful, do not show desperation and maintain eye contact as you speak confidently...............your answers should be able to convince you first. Also, read up your submitted form.as a reference point.

Thank you so much, actually I'm a civil servant with no lies to tell. No desperation at all

Been lurking on the forum for months. You guys are doing a great job I must confess. My interview is on Monday. Please say a word of prayer for a brother. I'll come back to share my testimony by God's grace
