Your aunt is a low risk traveller. Just let know she shouldn't stay that long again as to them it looks like she's patterning her travels. Only God knows what the VO wrote on her case note for future references. Congrats Oggg: 1 Like |

Hi house, I am having my US visa interview in July 2022 for travel in October 2022. I am caught between canceling it and doing Interview Waiver appointment or stick to my booked appointment. I understand getting openings for IW is not easy. Any advise will be welcomed. |

Dhammy4real: If they can commence initial consultation with a doctor in the US hospital, that will increase the credibility factor more. An appointment alone is good. But cover all the bases. The DS160 et al are required. You won't be able to book any interview appointment without them. 1 Like |

Knowledge they say is power, true. But I will say the right information is key. I have been a silent reader and have gotten quite a load of information from here. My timeline goes thus: I submitted our recently filled D160 forms ( myself, DW and son) on the 14th March, 2022. I made payment for our visa same day and joined a telegram group in search of IW appointment date ( our last visa expired in July 2020 which was used for child birth as declared then for DW). Appointment time schedule came up on Tuesday 15th March, 2022 but I wasn’t able to secure a time slot owing to three(3) failed attempt due to either poor/slow network or guess so many people were choosing the same time as I was simultaneously. Learnt my number one lesson (i.e go for the early morning dates if you come in slightly later than when the time slots initially appears). I was bewildered that appointment slots came up the next day Wednesday 16th March, 2022 in the afternoon as we had the notion that time slots show up majorly midday. I missed this due to engagement at work. I was flabbergasted, when time slots came up again the next day Thursday 17th March, 2022 and this time I was successful in getting a slot for 29th March, 2022. Submitted on the appointment day without hassle. Visa was issued on the 16th April, 2022 to the three of us. Got our passport pickup email and sms on the 21th April, 2022 by 7:30pm. I went to Victoria Island for pickup of our passports on the 22nd April, 2022, but couldn’t. I was told that I came late( time was some minutes to four O clock) and the crowd was quite alarming. Learnt they were treating list 16 out of 25 (there are 25 names on a list) as at that time. I went back on Monday 25th April, 2022 and spent about 8hrs (got there around 1000am and left around 0600pm) before being able to pickup for only myself and son as DW passport could not be found after several search attempts. The lady that attended to me pleaded with me to go as it was not easy searching for it at that time, she gave me her mobile number and promised to look for it. She called me later by 9:05pm same day to inform me that she has found it. I went there the next day to pick it up. All glory to God, a big thank you to this house and a big thumps up to the telegram group. God bless you all. 11 Likes |

DrStrangelove: Where are you getting the “6 week” number from? I’ve had people who visited me for 2 months and never had issues with renewal during the Trump era. Just putting it out there 1 Like |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by puffmama: 7:03pm On Apr 27, 2022 |
wuki: Have they renewed recently? Except for childbirth or medical reasons or retirees, anyone that stayed 2 months and above got a 221g for a follow up interview . It's assumed that if you have family ties or you have a job or business back home , why will.you.be on vacation for 2 months ? Most organisation give 21-30 days leave allowance and you may not necessarily spend all abroad . They are getting stricter , even for child birth someone was refused , that unless she is having any complications of any sort she does not leave to give birth abroad that the rules have changed . In time past once you have the financial capability and have good travel history, they give you visa for birthing purposes 1 Like |

Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by artofalternativ(f): 8:12pm On Apr 27, 2022 |
Hello house, I did my IW dropoff for a B1/B2 visa in Abuja (to be picked up in Lagos) on the 19th of April and received an email at 6:30pm today stating that my passport has been collected from the US embassy. I have two questions, 1. Since I didn't get any other email, I can safely assume the visa has been granted, right? 2. Does this mean that my passport is available for pickup in Lagos now or will I have to wait for communication from DHL to know when I can get it? Thank you |

artofalternativ: You can track it to know if it was issued. You will get a mail telling you to go pick. Since you are picking up from Lagos, give a few days and go check. |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by Obamagbagbeeni: 9:46pm On Apr 28, 2022 |
flourishing247: Good day all, Please people that were called for a follow up interview after IW, when you tracked did your visa status read refused or come for follow-up interview? My visa status reads refused. I have renewed so many times without issues so I’m wondering why this was refused. All events have stayed the same with me except that I didn’t use my last visa at all.. I got it 2019 and planned going 2020 but Covid happened … Can I be refused for not using the visa? Thank you for your anticipated response. |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by EOA1: 10:36pm On Apr 28, 2022 |
Not using your visa may not be reason for refusal. I did not use at all my last two visas and just got issued last week Obamagbagbeeni: 2 Likes |

My mum was invited for medical attention in the US because we did a scan and discovered she has a brain mass. She was booked for interview on 19th April to be accompanied by my brother who is single but doing a good job. We had all medical papers from a US neurologist and our Nigeria sealed medical letter and all her lab examinations including MRI. Unfortunately she was denied Visa and we are still shocked to what could be the problem. We want to book for another emergency interview date but please we want to get it right this time. My brother said the lady that interviewed them said the US Doctor should state the cost of the treatment. Should we go with statement of account as my sister over there promise to take charge of the treatment and she put it in her invitation letter sent but still they denied us visa. What else should we do or provide and do you think the denial was because of my brother who is single and have not travelled before. |
