So explaining to them at the POE that was done to cut cost given how much our leaders have bastardised our currency does not suffice?

Anyway, the officers better be economically sound.

LadyGuinivere:

My opnion: No matter the questions that are asked, issues will never arise if there's no illegality. It is not a crime for one to pay for another's ticket. It is a crime however if the payment comes from a stolen card.
If you trust your uncle to actually buy the tickets AND without any funny stories , no ish. Every truth can be verified. Bank transactions leave traces ...

Do you think they give a damn. Give them an excuse to deport you and you will be deported, your leaders, your currency, your economy and your explanation be damned.
Help yourself. Give them less reasons. But hey, if you think you can give concrete reasons, you are more than welcome to try your luck.
If you are looking at cutting cost, should you really be travelling? Why not wait till you don't need to "cut cost".

LadyGuinivere:
Vorpal baby boo ...don't cuss

LadyGuinivere:

1. Either way you MUST make a payment and the payment is non refundable
2. I percieve you have NOT filled a ds 160. you will have to fill that.
3. The ds 160 is where all those informatiob you seek to fill is contained.
For further assistance, read the dropbox side of the US visa website

How will the CBP officer at d POE know that some one paid the flight fee for you? As long as the flight ticket bears your name, I don't think there is any cause for fear.

Then I stick to a conference as my purpose of travel still enjoy my vacation afterwards. FYI, can't embark on something as int'l conference without being conversant with the nitty gritty of it, it's not my first time attending a conference or travelling overseas; and you'll be making a big mistake to think am leaving my job and country for some American dream. All Nigerians are not fraudsters with nothing but evil intentions. So please, ma'am/sir, all I need is a good conference on accounting or oil and gas in the states then i'll take it from there. Thank alot.

I believe we are all educated here, You stated that 'Marriage is a self supporting document, that proves strong ties'. I will say it again, MARRIAGE is NOT exactly a strong tie. If you like marry and have 6 children, that does not prove your loyalty to stay in this country. A VO, just by looking at you knows whether you getting a visa or not. They are psychologists! A lot of single people on this page got their visas without been married. Mostly, becuse they were articulate, composed and had good travel history. I have friends who got their visas and the 'are you married question?' Never came up. I was never asked if I was married, and I am 24 and not working, and I got my visa. All they asked was why, I hadn't travelled to the US in 2 years and I replied that I was in school. Mostly the way you present yourself, is how you are asked questions. Who marriage epp? A lot of us have met people, and even without them opening their mouth, we already know their intentions. I believe it's like that with VO's.

@inikamoze, I get my peeps to buy my ticket everytime. As long as you have your name one it. It is not even the business of the cbp. However, if it is bought with a stolen card(if them wo Ike to buy it. Loll. I hope you know what am talking about) the airline won't even allow you leave Lagos.

The use of Marriage has become overrated and is no longer a strong tie to get a US visiting visa. Some applicants have used it as a tactic to fool the Visa Officers to approve their visas. Some married couples still end up divorcing their spouses once they get to the US in order to make their temporary stay permanent.

bigmodo:
This is my first time to travel to usa. I intend to stay just a week and come back to nigeria because of my biz. Can someone help me with the best affordable city to travel to when it comes to hotel accomodation, food etc. I will be staying in a hotel for the period of my stay. How much in naira will it cost for a going and return flight, hotel accomdation for one week, food etc. How much should i be budgeting?

ojay2053:
Good evening house. please, i wasn't able to upload a photo while filling ds 160. I've printed the ds 160 confirmation page (colored) and i've got recent passport to go with. Hope i won't be sent back to upload the photo in my ds 160 since i already have a passport photograph with me?

My interview is tomorrow. really need answer to my question, please.

Oseni007:
You will be sent back to upload....

ojay2053:
Are you serious, have you experienced such? I was told it doesn't matter since i have my recent passport with me. And will it affect my appointment date, would it require that i reschedule appointment?

I really need to solve the issue and save myself from stress and delay, thanks.

I am not married, I haven't travelled out of Nigeria before, yet I got the B1/B2 visa...you could present other ties outside marriage
In my opinion, I think sincerity of purpose, your composure and being able to present your case truthfully is the key to visit visa

Exodus1:
@Beautyaddy dont get me wrong Ooooo
what am saying is that when am interviewer looks at your paper , he see say you are not married , your age is lets say 25 -30
and you are not married , you your self look at that age bracket , that age is young , you can travel on b1/b2 visa , get there meet a lady
marry , change your status , apply for immigrant visa using DS-260 .. NOW that right there is their fear if you are within that age bracket
Now look at the same age bracket and now the person is married , automatically you cant go through the process i just mentioned , i[b]f they give the visa and you get there and say you divorce your wife and marry another woman over there, believe me 99.9 of those kind of cases usually get denied they dont even go through at the NVC.
