Thanks. I appreciate ur kind response. Please about my trip to Benin republic, should I include that to my travel history while feeling the ds 160 form? 2. The int'l passport I used then had picture problem so it was reissued at the immigration wen I applied. Now am going with a virgin passport, shld I state in the ds 160 and VO that I've been to sa and Benin, givn that I don't have the old passport? Bcus it was retracted by immigration being that it hs more than 6months validity. 3. When fillin the form, the question 'have u ever lost a passport before or had one stolen?' since am applyin wth a new passport that's different frm the previous passport number I last applied wth, should I state 'yes' so as to explain what happened to the previous one? 4. If am to go via conference, which is suppose to be my US contact? The hotel where i'll be lodging or the hotel where conference will be holding? 5. Being that the state i'll be travelling to is different frm where my uncle lives, am I permitted to pay him a visit after the conference, visit any other state for a tour or do I have 2 list any other state I may visit while am there both in the ds 160 form, VO and POE? The conference is for 3days and I plan 2 stay approximately 2wks in the states then return back to resume wrk d nxt week. LadyGuinivere: |

cumz:The problem is that Nigerians want everything sugar coated. When a non vo writes here, it is clearly implied that it is opinion. And everyone has a right to speak in their style . The guy asked for his chances and he got a reply on that. How is that a curse? Even if it were, what effect can a curse have on a visa application? ![]() |

Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by LadyGuinivere: 2:29am On Apr 19, 2017 |
@samcint 1. Travel history asked for is in the ds 160 is within the past 5 years so if it falls within that range, Yes. 2.Same answer as above. Explain what happened to the passport if asked. 3. Did you lose the passport or was it stolen? The answer is no. 4. Yes. Hotel address is ok. S. For as long as you have a valid us visa and you do not overstay or breach the conditions you may visit the 50 states. |

Your kind is the reason, why Nigeria hasn't reached its full potential. No that's not a curse or an opinion, but a fact! Even an illeterate reasons better than you, you just go to school to get paper but not to learn how to think, this is not an opinion but a fact.

Terminalia: Your entire story here is basically a fraudulent one. 1. You applied for a visa for a "vacation" in february but mistakenly happened to get pregnant barely 4 weeks later? Since you're 3 months gone in April, it suggests you took in as early as february or earlier... which likely suggests you were actively trying well before your "vacation" plan. Methinks you definitely planned to get pregnant and you should have declared that at your visa interview. Thankfully, VOs now read through these sort of ridiculous stuff. 2. If you could not go for your "vacation" in february because of dollar scarcity, why then are you now able to go for childbirth barely 6 months later... when the dollar won't be any more available and at a significantly higher cost than if you had simply gone for a vacation as you claimed? 3. It sounds like you've learnt the trick - apply for a visa while actively trying for a baby, go for a "vacation" so as to claim to have used your visa for the intended purpose, then send a "letter of intent" to the embassy before proceeding for your real goal - to go to the US to have a baby. FYI - letters of intent are now as useless as the paper they are written on - precisely because of frauds like you who have abused it thoroughly. 4. Yes you weren't asked if you were pregnant at your visa interview... but you knew that you were actively trying, you should have been honest then. 5. You're not confused, you're simply looking for someone to validate your fraudulent actions. Unfortunately stories like yours are what makes me strangely agree with people like Afonjaboston... the earlier the US does away with Jus solis, the better... if you have a baby in the US, he/she should only get the passport of the birth parents. Soon you'll be here asking if your child can now access "free" medicaid and creche... the things i have read on these pages... why a regular Nigerian cannot be straightforward, ever, is beyond me. |

TWoods: You need to calm down when replying people. Seriously, this forum is now looking childish because of the constant bickering and insults. Most women don't even know they are pregnant until they are 7-8weeks gone, especially if it is her first pregnancy. If you were somewhat educated you would know this, instead of relying on Nigerian movies, where a woman starts throwing up like a diseased cow. Someone can take a visa for the sole purpose of vacation and end up using the visa for urgent medical needs such as transplant and so on. Plans change just like the weather. The B1 is for Business/Medical Purposes, while the B2 is for tourism and Pleasure, If she has the B1 visa attached to her B2 visa, SHE HAS EVERY RIGHT TO ENTER THE US FOR MEDICAL REASONS. Don't you think the VO's realize it's too much stress for people to have B2 visa then come back again to ask for B1 visa because of pregnancy or medical issues, hence their decision to MERGE the two visas together. Have you seen a pregnant woman go for interview at the consulate, say she is going to give birth and they give her the B1 visa alone? Nope it's the B1/B2 because they are smart enough to know she might decide to take a vacation sometime later. The question to be asked is were you given the B1/B2 visa. If she says yes, then SHE IS GOOD TO GO, her luck now lies at the Point of Entry. It is not your place to call her fraudulent or bash her, she asked a question if you cannot reply with patience then jump of a bridge. Don't be rude. It's for this reason a lot of people send me private messages because they are scared people like you will bash them on the thread. See I don't know how many times you have entered Yankee or what but it's mostly people with nothing that shout as much as you do. Have a blessed day. 18 Likes 1 Share |

MsTiitii: I've been on this forum for a very long time... long enough to remember when the religion, politics and family sections were filled with mature individuals, a time when you'd find lengthy threads filled with substantive debates (and funny fights too). Now all we've got are frauds, the immature and people like you who support a culture rife with mediocrity and a disdain for honesty... no surprise even you realise how childish it is. You simply need to look in the mirror to see the problem. But i digress... now to your post... 1. Plans change just like the weather. If she has the B1 visa attached to her B2 visa, SHE HAS EVERY RIGHT TO ENTER THE US FOR MEDICAL REASONS - There are two errors here. First no non-US citizen has a right to enter the US at any time. You should read up on the terms of your visa. It simply allows you to apply at your nearest US border to apply for entry. The decision on whether to let you in or not is decided, not by your visa, but by the CBP at the border. Second, it is imperative that you enter the US for the purpose of which you originally obtained your visa. You cannot obtain a visa for vacation purposes, then change your mind and decide you have the right to enter the US for medical reasons. The US is not your country, you do not pay taxes to it... you have a right to seek medical attention in your own home country only 2. Don't you think the VO's realize it's too much for stress for people to have B2 visa then come back again to ask for B1 visa because of medical issue, hence their decision to MERGE the two visas together. - First, please understand what the visas are for. The B1 visa used to be a temporary business visa, while the B2 is the tourist version. I'm perplexed by this comment. Why should VOs care about the stress of getting a US visa when you can easily have a vacation in your home country and there are standard hospitals where you can have your baby? Even if the VOs care, do you think CBP gives a damn? The visa is only given for medical reasons AFTER you have demonstrated the capability to pay for whatever medical procedure you seek. Obtaining a B2 visa on the pretext of vacation is an attempt to circumvent the normal process of having a VO review your medical correspondence with the hospital and that you demonstrate that you will not resort to public services here in the US. 3. Someone can take a visa for the sole purpose of vacation and end up using the visa for urgent medical needs such as transplant and so on. - unless this was declared during your visa interview, this is misrepresentation and is the reason many get turned down for visa renewals. Please see the birthing thread for numerous painful examples. As is well known, you can get urgent medical needs met in your own home country or elsewhere where health care is actually much cheaper. 4. It is not your place to call her fraudulent or bash her - If a question is basically fraudulent in nature, it is responsible to call you out on it. This attitude is why finding $48m buried in Ikoyi is common place in your country where >70% live on less than $1 a day. 5. It's for this reason a lot of people send me private messages because they are scared people like you will bash them on the thread. - most likely because they are looking for less than honest means of beating US immigration. I for one i'm glad they don't post here. Posts like that make the rest of us look bad, you should not encourage it. 6. See I don't know how many times you have entered Yankee or what but it's mostly people with nothing that shout as much as you do. - I don't need to "enter yankee"... i live here, pay taxes here and follow the law. i wish you God's blessings too. 4 Likes |

Okay, you guys that are forming God on this thread as if you yourself are the vo, this message is for you... Someone comes here, ask a question or two, you reply him as if you are talking to a baby, tell him to read up, that he will see his answers, tell him to start from page zero, evaluate himself and all sort of Rubbish, Some would even go as far as insulting indirectly, A guy can't remember his username now came here, asked a question, said all his life story and all what KaptainAfrika said was Sorry you don't qualify shi, you just killed this guy, there are more mature ways of telling someone, what's thier to guide a fellow Nigerian, why not just calm your egoistic balls down and just tell him in a more comforting way, Ladygaga too is a culprit {I don't know your username would have quoted you, in your mind you will tell me to go and read from page zero abi}... I amd my sister and an interview around March, and we were all worried over, we didn't want to go for the Interview and mess up, my sister came here, asked a simple honest question, out of All that answered I think only one reasonable person gave a comforting answer- seyewest, am not sure-... Ladygaga here almost killed my sister's confidence-ofcos we didn't qualify for a visa, my sister is not married, no job, am undergoing Nysc,-.. I saw the response she gave then and I was like Damn, this girl talk to my sister like this, I felt really bad, we had to talk about it gained our confidence back, what matters is confidence after all... In the end, we went for the interview, came out successful, My point, if you are not God, and no vo- I don't even believe any vo will have time to spend on nairaland, maybe those attendants sha, no offense to Vos that are here- you have no right to tell someone he doesn't qualify - KaptainAfrika- Give him your reasons, talk to him in an educated manner, like someone who was brought up well in a good home, advise him..

TWoods: If you had sat down to thoroughly read and understand I stated if given the B1 visa also the decision lies with the CBP for her to enter the US. I have the B1 visa attached to my B2 visa and at no POINT did medicals or health issue come up with my interview. So does that mean I 'fraudulently' acquired my visa. Does that mean I should discard the use of the B1 visa because I didn't ask for it or because it wasn't discussed in my interview? I will say it again, if she has the B1 visa merged with her B2 visa she can try her luck with entering into the US for childbirth purposes which is also a medical issue. I am sure most of us on this page with valid visas including Seyewest and co applied for tourism and were given the medical/business visas merged with our Tourism/Pleasure visas, does that make us fraudulent? Most applied for the B2 visa only(like me) and got the B1/B2 visa does that make me dishonest? Did I request for it? If you have an issue with the Consulate issuing out B1 visas together with the B2's, when not asked then take it up with the American embassy. Don't come here and rant and call it fraudulent. And it's sad that I am having this argument with someone that 'supposedly' lives in Yankee. 4 Likes |

Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by TWoods(m): 8:24am On Apr 19, 2017 |
MsTiitii: Your post is a confused mishmash... let me try again... at the risk of being further abused by you of course... 1. If you had sat down to thoroughly read and understand I stated if given the B1 visa also the decision lies with the CBP for her to enter the US. - this is what you actually said - "Plans change just like the weather. If she has the B1 visa attached to her B2 visa, SHE HAS EVERY RIGHT TO ENTER THE US FOR MEDICAL REASONS". At no point did you reference the CBP. 2. I have the B1 visa attached to my B2 visa and at no POINT did medicals or health issue come up with my interview. So does that mean I 'fraudulently' acquired my visa. Does that mean I should discard the use of the B1 visa because I didn't ask for it or because it wasn't discussed in my interview? - Actually it seems you do not understand the issue at stake. First, the B1 and B2 visas are no longer separate but are now typically issued together. Whether you wish to go for vacation, business or medical procedures, you will always get the same B1/B2 visa. The difference is in what the VO puts in your record. This record is what CBP reads when you present yourself at the US border to apply for entry. Now if you obtained a B1/B2 visa based on coming for a vacation... when the CBP officer sees you, he/she asks you why you are here in the US. Once you state that you are here to birth (which would also be obvious by the size of your belly!), you immediately put yourself at a disadvantage because that is not what they see on their end as the basis for issuing you a visa by the VO! That is misrepresentation and you'd be lucky to be let in. Even if you get let in, the CBP officer will record that inconsistency against you... when next you apply to renew your visa, the VO interviewing you gets to read that CBP record and will base his decision to renew your visa or not on that. In your case, your B1/B2 visa was obtained for vacation... as long as that remains your purpose when you get to a border of entry, you don't have an issue. I think what typically gets lost in discussions like this is that other countries, unlike Nigeria, actually work on strict guidelines and laws. While everyone gets the B1/B2 visa, the bar you need to meet depends on what purpose you indicated at your visa interview. For a tourist visa, you need to prove that you are not an intending immigrant and you have enough ties to bring you back home. For a business visa, of course you'd need to prove that you have genuine business reasons, for medical purposes, the VO must ascertain that you have sufficient funds to pay for your procedure without recourse to public funds. Each time you obtain a visa for vacation and then turn up at the POE for birthing... the CBP officer knows that you did not meet the bar required to obtain the B1/B2 visa for medical reasons... it is why pregnant women get turned back from POEs all the time. I understand that this is hard to understand but not every country is like Nigeria where everything goes. 3. I will say it again, if she has the B1 visa merged with her B2 visa she can try her luck with entering into the US for childbirth purposes which is also a medical issue - I will repeat again... the B1 is a temporary BUSINESS visa and the B2 is a TOURIST visa... neither are specifically issued for medical reasons. 4. And it's sad that I am having this argument with someone that 'supposedly' lives in Yankee. - what is actually sad is that you don't even understand the meaning and/or terms of the visa you claim to have obtained. Considering i don't need visas to enter the US, its sadder that i know about them better than you. 1 Like |

I will say it again if you have a problem with them authorizing B1 visas without people indicating the need for it on their Ds-160 form, write a letter to the consulate.

So I'm under no obligation to help. But when I do, it is my honest belief that research is better than being spoon fed and the surest way to getting a visa. If you can't do for yourself, then don't expect me to. I'll never answer a question I know the poster can find easily. @mrstiti I'm not siding anyone here. But if you notice I didnt answer the poster. Reason? A LOT of Nigerians have told this story. They all strangely know the term 'letter of intent' . That presupposes they know the 'system' . That system is what makes cbps treat us anyhow in foreign countries. I have been a victim of being held overnight in a holden cell till my story was verified so its painful and personal to me. I don't know if the poster is honest or dishonest, that's her own.
