overlord77: yes u right.. but note this.. this was ma first time over there and I kinda went with an open mindset.... I noticed before I was called that Nigerians just weren't acting friendly or people with d right courtesy.. thats why I decided to be a bit polite .. and let d VO see me as different frm the others... sure might not work for others.. and apart frm being confident.. I was honest on all counts... so I answered all questions with a smile.. lol |

ZumaKhaleesi: VOs can see through the fake "ice breaking" just like they can see through the fake confidence of arrogant applicants. I personally find it somewhat annoying when I am trying to do my job and the applicant instead wants to ask how my night was, how my family is, how work is going, etc. Greetings and courtesy are fine, but don't try to keep going back to them in the middle of the interview because you think it will help. I will echo again that honesty is probably the most important part of the interview. It's true, you can be entirely honest and still be refused (because you don't meet the necessary qualifications under U.S. law), but you could also be incredibly over qualified and get refused because you aren't telling the truth at the time of the interview. 11 Likes |

LadyGuinivere: Yeah... was out of the country for a bit. As far as denials - there hasn't really been an increase or decrease in the number of refusals or approvals. We did some reshuffling of officers recently in Lagos though so there are more NIV appointments open in general. 7 Likes |

mamateniola1:Hello Dear. Its better this way sef. 1. In my opinion, one shouldn't be too technical. U can fill 2 weeks. That should cover all your waka. Yes. U may put the actual day of your arrival. Though in reality, people rarely get in the exact day they filled in the form. 2. No 3. I believe the contact person should be the organization anchoring the training and 4. Your address should be the hotel u plan to stay at, unless you will be staying at your mom's place. You will still have a column to fill where they ask if you have family in the US. You can now fill in applicable details about them as required |

Thanks @LagosNiv and welcome back. U carry puffpuff or bagel return? ![]() On a serious note now, a lot of applicants have been denied recently upon renewal . A friend was told her bill for birthing was too low. I'm worried cos for patients paying cash, there's usually a discount. Is that illegal? To get a bargain and then pay off? Or is the issue that one applied with details of one hospital and used another? So that I do not make the same mistake as naturally one looks for the cheaper option (not medicaid of course) for better healthcare. I no just fit start stories that touch when I want to renew. Please educate me. 1 Like |

Breaking News Part 1 I left home on monday by 4pm. I was expecting to be in Abuja for my interview on Tuesday (today). As I got to Night Mile, my car temperature started rising. Well, I finally ditched the car and waited for a commercial bus or any other car that will take me to Abuja. It was 10pm and yet, I was still trapped. Then a Dangote truck arrived and needed passengers to Lokoja. I jumped in and said a silent prayer as I was in doubt of the reasonableness of the young driver. To make matters worst, it started raining and the speed drastically reduced. And by 4am I was in Lokoja. There was no vehicle for onward movement to Abuja, and my interview was for 7:30am. Finally, a GUO bus approached and was even filled with 'attach' to the brim. I squeezed myself in and had to stand for the duration of the snail-like journey to Abuja. By 7am, we were at Gwagwalada, and I had only 30 minutes to present myself for the interview. I hired the services of a Taxi Driver and we left Gwagwalada for the embassy. It was a race for life. We got to the embassy when my group was being called in. I quickly changed my clothesin the taxi and used 'purewater' to wash my face, wore my bodyspray and joined the line... 4 Likes |

I really appreciate your efforts and various comment to different question. I just applied for a visiting visa and my interview will be coming up next month. Am a newbie and I want to know if travelling experience is a must to get my visa approved. My friends keeps saying I should travel to dubai to disvirgin my passport but I don't have enough money for that. I have all the documents to back my claims and the invitation letter. Thanks |

LadyGuinivere: There could have been a number of reasons... Impossible to say without knowing a specific case. That being said, it isn't illegal to get a cash discount, but it does raise suspicions when you have applied with the intent of going to one location and then suddenly change it at the last minute. CBP will sometimes turn people around and give them 5 year bans just for showing up in the wrong city... 1 Like |
