My transcript below:

Yesterday was my interview and went with all my documents which were not checked. I arrived at the embassy Lagos office by 6.40am and my appointment was for 7.00am and went through the security checks and after standing for a while, I entered for the interview. I did my finger print and passport photograph scanning and later join the queue for the interview. I was watching all what is happening (praying silently with my heart in my mouth) and how many are been refused by the VOs especially a very friendly lady giving out blue sheet with smile.

My Case Is Different

KaptainAfrika:
I will say 99% chance of getting the visa, but that's my opinion.

Be bold and confident in the interview, and remember all that you filled in the form. Maintain eye contact with the V.O, be relaxed.

Come and share the good news with us here, all the best!

LadyGuinivere:

Thanks boo. I just dey. MB no dey to answer kweshun again.

@folarinstr:
Yes you may have A different contact person for each application. Change is the only constant thing in life.
As for cheap flights, the only way I can know is by checkng wakanow.com , skyscanner.com or online generally. And I don't do research for people that they can easily do for themselves. Tips I can give however are; book ahead, let your travel dates be mid Week for egs travel tuesdy or wednesday, use different systems to browse cos these websites have cookies and once they give you a quote, it remains the same and try checking at night.
Happy surfing

LadyGuinivere:

Thanks boo. I just dey. MB no dey to answer kweshun again.

Hello Gurus at home, kindly help me out, I wish to nullify and correct my lies as I wish to reapply with my wife and little son now. I've been denied twice but without applying with my wife and kid:
I guess I've been denied twice due to lies agent filled for me through all I've been reading here, I was packaged to working in a company I don't know anything about, they also wrote a name related to my surname as my US contact when I don't have any relation except a white woman in the US and when I went to accused them, they kept shouting at me with impunity.
But now, I want to adjust my DS-160 with all truth cause I've really learn how to apply for US visa by myself on this forum. So one of the question is,
1. Can I filled that I've resigned the job since last year after the visa denial and I've concentrated on my own graphics and printing business which I've been running 3yrs alongside that job that I will be claiming I've just resigned from
2. Can I state I don't have a US contact or enlighten me on this pls?
3. Can I now use the white woman, friend of mine in Arkansas as my US contact or book hotel reservation in Chicago which is where I wish to visit now?
4. I do pick Arkansas as my place of visit, pls can I pick Illinois, Chicago now?
5. What is my chances of being granted when its me and my family that's traveling, won't the consular says I don't have any tie back home?
Pls, your Swift analysis and solutions to each problems will be highly appreciated as I'm at the edge of filling the DS-160, Thanks in anticipation....LadyG and the Gurus in the house

Classified60:



Bro that is a very serious case oo... You will need to know the exact package those agent package for you before changing to anything that will make your application look and sound stupid..
1. Didnt you gey full details of what is packaged for you from those agent and let us know the transcript of your previous application. Thanks

OmoBendel24:


Repentance ain't clear here as it is! In essence, we should help with your doctoring as the 'truth' now, right? Okay....

Well, just do what suits you bruv, however it sounds good and pleasing to you. #NoOffence

bishop4APC:

Good morning everyone, I just have to give kudos to the brains behind this wonderful thread. Having gone through the pages, i was able to perfect my documents and booked an appointment.

I would love to ask the house if i stand any chance of getting my visa approved with these blah blah blah.

I'm a school proprietor and i will be attending a wedding of my friend who was born in the US, i will be spending 2weeks in his house because he doesn't want me to book for an hotel.

l have been to Israel twice on pilgrimage , Tanzania for a leadership conference , Kenya on a vacation trip, Senegal for my sister's wedding , cotedivoire and i also frequent to Cameroon , Ghana and Togo on business trips.

I make reasonable profit from my school business, am married with 2 kids ( age 4 and 6 )

What are my chances of getting the visa ? though am not too desperate but i just need to attend the wedding. Thank you

folarinstr:

I didn't give him any details since he said he's an immigration lawyer and I felt he's a professional, Looking at the interior and his staffs at his office, one will definitely lose guard. I only told him I wanted to visit my white woman friend and he gave excuses then to confused me and said he will get me a nice package and ihe charged me 150k which I eventually paid him 70k
So, the two lies I seriously which to erase now is the issue of US contact and the company where he says I'm working but I think I can state that ihave resigned the job to handle my own printing job but I don't know how to erase the issue of the US contact, I don't have any family as US contact which he had filled....Pls enlighten me

optimusprime2:

If your DS 160 form was accurately/properly filled, just try to go through the testimonials on this thread for an interview prep and you would be fine.
On another note, your Israeli trips are huge advantages that would work in your favour.
You have dependents (2 children) which are largely considered as significant ties.
And your job is quite relevant.
All things being equal, You should easily get the visa... that is; "if you don't fumble over fundamentals during the interview".

Sorry I thought you were a woman lol, you are good to go though.
But If you are married, that would play out well to your profile.

LadyGuinivere:
@folainstr
Clearly u do not know what this thread is about. This is not the place to cook up stories.
That your question about stating that u resigned bla bla is that not still a lie? What's the difference between that and what u and the agent did before? How far did that take u? By your own summation, u were refused cos of those lies, yet u want to create a spin off of those lies?
The only way to correct a misrepresentation is to admit you lied and fill in the proper details afterward. Shikena. Read the thread. You aren't the ist person with this kinda issue
Your other questions have been treated. By myself sef. On this page too.

Classified60:

Bros my take is this.. Before changing anything let there be a longer time frame to justify your next application so that the vo's dont smell something fishy..
1. i feel you should continue with the lie you have used. all you need is to be comfident with what the agent has used for you at the interview except you com clean in your next application that you use a false document in your previous application.
2. You probably was not prepared fully for the previous interview before going. God will help you.

My oga na so o... Perhaps by April I go start dey make plans . Thanks.

Meanwhile, my passport expires in June and my bro was saying something along the lines of airlines not allowing you on board if your passport's validity is less than 6months, I'm also making my Canada application now and they usually give you a visa to cover the validity of your passport. What should I do in this case as I don't want them to give me visa that's only valid for a few months. Any thoughts? Is it possible to have another passport now, even though the current passport still has a few months left to run?

I don't want to continue with the lie cause I will continue to be deny, as they can't get the details of the US relative the man has used for mr on their system as a result, visa denied. Pls how can I go about removing the fake US relative he said I have? Plss
And its 10months now that I was denied and I'm prepared for a new appointment but wish to clear the stigma I'm having first....pls enlighten me
Concerning the job, hope I can say I've resigned to manage my own business? Pls I will appreciate your suggestion, thanks

ladylco:


Try to renew your passport before you travel to usa and process your canada visa immediately you arrive USA, it faster and more guaranteed
