Like she has right to choose VO herself. Her husband should be a tie she has back home. Don't even go through Chicago. It's worse than Houston for pregnant women.

I think I've heard in the past that if you encounter the VO that denied your previous application, they are usually obliged to pass your case to another VO. It's hearsay though, but from various sources.

You did nothing wrong.
That black woman is a real meanie (am assuming she's d same black woman who denied my husband and made him US EmbassyPhobic)
If at first you don't succeed, don't give up just try again. Reapply, and see another VO. I have friends who were denied in May and got it this week. Same birthing purpose, same documents, only increased the funds in their bank accts.
nerf you mean they didn't wait for 90days before reapplying because may is just a few weeks away, wow that's really good.

I think that's the thing they usually do, the same v.o that interviewed you previously can't interview you again,you have to be interviewed by another, I think someone once shared a transcript where he was going to be interviewed by the same v.o that refused him previously and he had to pass his documents to another v.o

Hello, I will advice u to go with ur hubby wen next u reapply. These are the possible reasons;

1. The VO will be wandering what will ur hubby be doing without assisting you.
2. Secondly make sure u use another VO wen next u go.
3. Don't use Texas as ur POE use New york, Chicago etc

Good luck!

many pregnant women have gone to the embassy without their husbands and they have been granted visas, in my opinion she did nothing wrong at all, she should just try again.

They didn't wait o! After the first refusal in May, they vexed and reapplied a few days after but didn't get a date till June. The wife is already very heavy.

you are very correct. It happened to me. The VO simply told me he can't interview me again since he was the one that refused me that another VO will review my case.

Hello travels gurus
Had my visa interview yesterday but was refused; worst part is can't seem to place my hansd on what went wrong, so I'm skeptical about reappling for fear of rejection.

I really wish I knew what I shouldn't have done or should have done. Was pretty confident from all the learnings I had garnered here.

Background:

Applied for B2, used Lagos, married, self sponsored, travelling alone, budget of about 12.1K , Oakbend medical center, precious cedars for 10 weeks accommodation, Dr FF. SOA balance of about 3.5M in 2 banks with very good inflow and outflow. First time applicant to US, previously travelled for holiday to Ghana and Dubai. Work for a multinational.23weeks gone.

Transcript(in no particular order):

It seemed like I was her first interviewee or she just came from a break cos she had window blinds half way down her window and was settling down with a cup of coffee or something. Quite formal Black woman, no smiles etc. Hardly had eye contact, cos she kept typing, her fingers were so fast.Seemed to take forever, cos she kept typing.

where are you going to in the US? Richmond texas

Why?Vacation and child birth.

Who have you contacted? FF of OBC

How longdo you plan to spend? 10 weeks

Wherewould you be staying? Precious Cedars.

Where do you work? Xyz

What do you do there? Bla bla bla

how long have you been there? ...yrs

How much do you earn? Xyz

do you have a birth plan? gave her + FF correspondences and Precious Cedars emails.

CanI see your statements. Sure, passed them to her she studied and studied and studied.

So you are going for 3 months. No... 10 weeks.

I see you are married. Yes I am

Do you have any children. No, this is our first.

Have youtravelled outside? Yeah, UAE.

And kept typing and typing and typing.

I'm sorry bla bla bla, gave me the blue paper with 214b reasons for refusal.

...that's as far as I can remember...

I had a portmanteau filled with proofs, but you don't prove what you weren't asked, rightHow do I prove strong ties, thought my place of work, job role and the fact that my husband wasn't travelling with me was good enough.

Ireally do not know what to do differently?

My dear, so sorry about the refusal. I also applied in Jan and was interviewed by the same woman. You can reapply again but make sure she doesn't interview you again this time. I've heard a lot About that black woman. She is the only black lady there and she is really mean. I also don't think it's necessary to go with your husband when next you want to reapply unless it's necessary that he travels with you. I was granted the visa the 2nd time I applied in April and I went alone. I almost got interviewed by the black woman again but I made sure someone else interviewed me. Better luck next time

God forbid if her husband attention is needed in the US how will they resolve it? The VO reason outside the box. Even though her hubby is not joining her on the trip let him go with her to get the visa.
Thank u some much I have noted the Chicago POE.

So una never hear of google? Na wa o. I'm not calling yall slow but one would think that it's common sense to type in what u are looking for in Google and select anyone nearest to ur address. Use google maps pls and also google earth to see what the area looks like.
This was what I did b4 leaving the house everyday in Atl. B4 I drive anywhere I don't know, I check it out on google first, including distance in km and time. Then put it on my GPS for directions. Is it everything that we will run to ask on the forum? Odikwa egwu! Type in "Kroger near me" on google or nearest kroger with ur zipcode. Initiative oh people!

Hello House,

I and hubby went for interview last month, but was given a white paper to come back and show evidence of payment for medicals and itemised hospital bill. Got one now tho the bill stated normal delivery and CS but I paid fully for normal delivery and have all evidence. Going back in 2weeks time but don't know the chances of being granted the visa.

Abeg don't reply that rude person again so as not to derail the thread. I don't understand how a wife and a mother will come here and be calling people she doesn't know names like slow and dumb... Just pretend you didn't see her post(s).
Just try and see if there's a Walmart around you for the stuff you need to get.
