Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by larrytoks: 6:52pm On Mar 08, 2016 |
Hello Nigeria NIV Team, I completed my DS-160 form and printed the confirmation and the application for my reference. While I was filling another form for my son, and making reference to my printed application, I realized I had skipped my Education information on my own form. I guess I just selected "does not apply" unknowingly and moved past it. My question is; do I need to fill another DS-160 form due to this error or can this omission be overlooked without jeopardizing my chances of getting the visa? Please advise. Thanks |

abujaniv: Thanks NIV Team, Just wondering if the VO won't deny me for applying to Visit my wife on F-1 visa that hasn't take effect yet. Note: she's presently on B1/B2 visa, but it was written boldly on her new F-1 visa that "Effective date, May 2016" since she's resuming study by June. Can I still go ahead and apply by March or April or I should wait till May when her new F1 visa will be effective. Sincerely |

Dear VO, is B1 the appropriate visa category while applying to go for an official work related training in the USA. There are some arguments its better to apply for B1/B2. Please clarify, thankyou. |
Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by abujaniv: 6:45am On Mar 09, 2016 |
MXoXo: Hello MXoXo, The B1 visa is for business related activities and the B2 visa is for tourist related activities. You know your own circumstances the best and unfortunately, we cannot provide specific case-by-case advice on this forum. During the interview, be clear and honest with the officer about your purpose of travel and your ties to Nigeria. Regards, Nigeria NIV Team 1 Like |

Good day Visa officer and thanks for being there for everyone of us..pls my question is: I already have a B1B2 visa, during the interview, the consular officer asked if I intend to have my baby in the US within now and the next 2 years, my response was for now I dnt know..but now I am pregnant and I want to have my baby in the US although I have not travelled wt the visa since it was issued. As regards my response, (For now I dnt know) do I need to notify the embassy of using my visa for childbirth or not? Please I need your professional advice on what to do so that I do not have problem at POE. Thanks man. |
Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by abujaniv: 2:54pm On Mar 10, 2016 |
ujan: Hello ujan, There is no rule or requirement about the person listed as a contact in the U.S. Some applicants do not have a contact person because they are going to a hotel in a place where they don't know anyone - and some people list family or friends. Just be honest and clear about your intentions for travel, both on the form and in the interview. Regards, Nigeria NIV Team |
Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by koksy(f): 3:02pm On Mar 10, 2016 |
What I need to know is....is it still the same DS-160 form I will fill for renewal? |

Hello V.O. I want to ask if one can apply for a B1/B2 visa while on visiting in another country. Is this possible? a friend is currently on vacation in canada for the first time and she realises she could travel by road to US from where she is but she has no US visa, how can she go about it. |
Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by mummybee: 9:37am On Mar 11, 2016 |
Hello Nigeria NIV team, I have a B1/B2 visa which I used for birthing in 2014 (the original intent). Now I want to use the visa for the same purpose. My Question is: my visa will expire on the 30th July, my due date is in Mid July and I intend traveling to the U.S first week in June to be back in August. Can I travel with the visa? And what are my chances at the POE? Many thanks. |
Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by abujaniv: 10:17am On Mar 11, 2016 |
koksy: Hello koksy, Yes, the DS 160 needs to be filled for each applicant when they apply for the first time or for a renewal. Regards, Nigeria NIV Team |
Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by abujaniv: 10:20am On Mar 11, 2016 |
mummybee: Hello mummybee, Your visa validity is what allows you to go to the POE and seek entrance, so if you travel in June, that will be fine. We recommend bringing (on the plane with you) financial records showing your ability to pay for the birth, correspondence between you and any medical facilities in the U.S., and if you have already a baby in the U.S. - you should also being proof of payment for that birth. Be clear and honest with the CBP agent at the POE. Regards, Nigeria NIV Team 1 Like |

Cutie33: Hello Cutie33, It would be very difficult to get a visa while visiting another country because it would be hard for the VO to determine the applicant's ties to their home country. Regards, Nigeria NIV Team |
Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by abujaniv: 10:26am On Mar 11, 2016 |
segee77: Hello segee77, We cannot offer case-by-case advice on this forum, but the general answer is that the VO did not believe you overcame the presumption of immigrant intent at the time of your interview. There is no rule about who people travel with or where they travel, but instead the VO was assessing your ties to Nigeria. You are welcome to apply again, but we would advise that you wait until there have been major changes to your circumstances. Regards, Nigeria NIV Team |
Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by abujaniv: 10:28am On Mar 11, 2016 |
Lucky911: Hello Lucky911, You do not have to notify the Embassy or Consulate. You should however bring (on the plane with you) financial records showing your ability to pay for the birth, correspondence between you and any medical facilities in the U.S. and be ready to answer questions about why you didn't travel on the visa when it was first issued and why you have chosen to give birth in the U.S. Regards, Nigeria NIV Team |
Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by Cutie33: 2:15pm On Mar 11, 2016 |
abujaniv: Dear VO, i read your response to segeee77, what does it really entains for a "major changes to one circumstances" occour because you say that often in most responses to those whose visa application is denied. |

Dear VO, Can a US citizen accompany his mother for an interview at the embassy. Because she will not be able to understand the VO because of the accent and the mother can't communicate in English. |

Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by abujaniv: 7:26am On Mar 14, 2016 |
Cutie33: Hello Cutie33, Well, what do you think it means? You could probably make a good and accurate guess. But if we don't see a change since your last application that is sizable enough that we believe your ties and circumstances will compel a return to Nigeria, you will be refused again. Don't waste your time and money on what will undoubtedly be a second unsuccessful interview. Regards, Abuja NIV Team |
