Hi, I applied for Dropbox (for a B1/B2 visa renewal) in July and haven’t been able to get a date since. Any ideas of how to get a date would be appreciated please. |

Shiningstarz:oh wow. Are you sure though? I’m asking for the Interview waiver process, not the one that requires an interview. |

Good day, No need for invitation letter. Hope Ur sister and her husband's her citizens? Or they have permanent residence (green card)? If so, they should just familiarise with the answers they filled in their DS 160 and they should be good. They should know when they travelled, how long they have been married, what's their children's (grandchildren) are, where they work etc. With that they should be okay and their visas will be issued. They are going for a visit of some weeks I guess. Goodluck mojolajesu: 1 Like |

EXLOVER:Your question is not clear . Are you asking of Visa fee ? You can only pay visa fee through the bank not bank app. Ds-160 form is filled online not at the bank or through the bank app 1 Like |

mojolajesu: I advise your sister send a copy of the invitation letter, even if the VO doesn't ask for it. From my mum's experience she was asked to provide the invitation letter and copy of my sisters US passport. So i advice they go to the embassy with supporting documents anything can happen. 2 Likes |

We got our visas! All Glory to God. A big thanks to everyone who was always dropping hints on getting dates and also their transcript. I originally applied early last Year and eventually got interview date of February this Year. Few days to our interview in february, they rescheduled to October. So we had our interview on the 7th October. I have been to the USA about five times but my husband has never travelled out of Nigeria Interview time - 9:45am Arrived - 7:30am Venue - Lagos It was one tall guy at the second window that attended to us. Husband and I - Good morning VO - Good morning VO - Your Passports Me- I gave him both VO - I can see you have been to the USA a couple of times Me - Yes please VO -What were you doing when you travelled Me-Vacation VO- What do you do? Me- Told him. VO- Where exactly is your office? Me- Told him VO- How many branches do you have? ME - Told him and I support all of them VO- Who are you staying with at the US? ME - My sister VO- What does she do? ME - She went for her masters about 3 years ago at XXXXX school and she currently works at the school. VO- When did you guys get married? ME- Told him VO- Any kids? Me - None VO- I can see you travelled before you got married ME- Yes VO- Faced my husband. What do you do? Hubby- Told him VO- How much do you make? Hubby- A profit of about XXXXX. VO- But you wrote a salary that is less than 10% of what you mentioned Me- Yes that is the salary he pays himself. the profit is different VO- What kind of Bleep business delivers such huge profit ME- He submits proposals to corporate organisations, different institutions, has top clients and has X number of branches with X number of employees VO- So monthly, how much does he have in his account? ME- Well between Bleep and Bleep VO- He typed oooooo. Then he asked me. How much is your monthly salary? ME- Told him VO- When did you Sister get to the United States? ME- I think about 3 or 4 years but I am not sure of the exact date VO- He was just typing.....Can I see your marriage certificate Me- Gave him. Me -Also brought out a small album and asked if I could show him VO- He said never mind After a few seconds VO - Gave me a white paper. Please pick up your passport between 3 and 5 working days They actually denied a lot of people whether old or young so there is no formula. May God favour everyone. 13 Likes |

Shannon70: Hello. Please i need some basic explanations. 1) Why do people always say it is better to travel to another country and apply for a US visa from there. Have been hearing on this thread that next interview date is 2024 which is insane. Now, is it because people are applying from nigeria that makes the date so clogged and shifted so beyond? If peoplw travelled to lets say the uk and apply from the uk, would it make interview date sooner than if one applied from Nigeria? 2) is it true that invitation letters are useless, as in are they completely useless, or they have a little bit of usefulness in helping your application? 3) would you be asked what countries you have visited in a ds160 form? Reason for asking is because I am planning to visit about 3 European countries to boost my passport and increase my chances of being approved a us visit visa. But i need to know if having traveled to various european countries prior to applying for a us visit visa helps or not so i dont waste money on such voyages. Thank you |

Hi, please is anyone finding it difficult to get a date for Interview waiver appointment for B1/B2 visa? |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by hunee: 11:51am On Oct 09, 2022 |
1. No dates for appointment now. you need use a trusted agent to get a closer date 2. Nigeria or Elsewhere, there is no special treatment. Your visa decision is instant 3. Honestly. first timers are not advised to use Iv letters. Use Hotel Accommodation instead. 4. Sure, your Eu travel history will boost your Us visa decision, however , the VO decides. I gave straight feedbacks because i felt the other inquiries were repeated. Trust this helps. eniola1010: 1 Like |

Please can someone who is very versed in usa visitor visa educate us please. 1) does travelling to other countries give you an higher chance of having your usa visitor visa approved. What i mean is, if you have really explored other countries, those that give you an higher chance than someone who has not traveled to other countries? Because on the ds160 form i cant see any where where it states you to list the countries you have traveled to. So how exactly will the vo know that you have traveled to other countries before? 2) why do people keep saying it is easier for your usa visa application to be approved if you applied from another country outside nigeria. People do say this a lot. But judging by the thread i found out reverse is the case. Both peope that applied from nigeria and people that went to uk to apply are having over 170days as next available appointment date. What then is the essense of going to uk and applying from there? Or am i missing something? |

Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by Arry110(m): 9:37am On Oct 10, 2022 |
eniola1010:1. Having a travel history proves you have hometies, and MAY increase your chance of getting a visa 2. There’s a huge backlog in Nigeria, I applied early last month and the date I got was October 2024. You can apply for an emergency appointment if it’s urgent , which is what I did |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by pufframmy: 10:46am On Oct 10, 2022 |
there is oo, it stated list country you have been to in the past 5 years. go through you DS160 form very well so u can get it right eniola1010: |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by fkj950ax(m): 3:28pm On Oct 10, 2022 |
Arry110: Can I respond here. The consulate is always not disposed to approving a non immigrant visa for an applicant with a pending immigrant application. The reasons are it negates a condition of the non immigrant visa (are you certain you are coming back to Nigeria); you can squash the non immigrant visa while in the US and hide behind the pending immigrant application, if the non immigrant application is denied, you will already be on US soil and can use an immigration attorney to plead your case, the paper work for USCiS increases. So they are more disposed to let the immigrant application run through and you use the final decision, which most time is an approval. Concerning the loss of a parent (my condolences), I don’t know how or if there is a channel to request for a visit visa on compassionate ground. The expedited appointment option may be used, but I think it has its options stated therein. Glad you have done this already. Funerals in the US are done differently than Nigeria. It will cost a whole lot more to hold off the funeral until you guys get to travel, and the VOs have a mindset different from ours which plays a part in their decision. Funerals expenses will be included in your financial assessments. You may write the consulate and state your grounds including the death certificate and funeral plans or situations maybe you’d get a feedback, but I am not certain about this. There are no question format or framework for interviews. The immigration law requires consular officers to question you based solely on the information you provide. So your application or case is the basis for questions. That’s why people are always told to state the facts as is so you can respond naturally. The backlog can’t be helped. It’s not only at the embassy in Nigeria. A couple of other countries are experiencing these backlogs too. I don’t know about going to other countries to apply. Your constraints with time may not afford you this luxury, and the VO knows this too. |
