I have a question please. On my interview appointment confirmation, I spelt one of my name wrongly.... Just a letter... A simple typo and my interview is in Lagos but I chose Abuja for pickup since I'll be traveling to Abuja after the interview. Does this matter or I can just leave it like that? |

idolda: 1. FRIEND is okay 2. Fill in one of the jobs, preferably the government job though, calculate the monthly average income from both jobs and declare same. Whatever comes up if at all thereafter, should be explained verbally at the interview as is. No ish Greetings to all my peeps in the house, have to do a few days catch up as I have been away from the thread and other threads for over a month.... Advocating once more, strongly too, that reading, studying and applying what's on this thread does over half the job for you in your pursuit of the US NIV (those that will refuse to do this will continually receive lashings here I so support. Imagine me oh, as I still at least get idea reach, na over 250 pages I gat do for all the threads so far and I never through oh, just to do catch up and know what time it is). Special hailings LadyG of life, Seyewest, Nerf, 9jastar, Constance234, shrekandfiona, KaptainAfrica, Twoods (noticed you were away too or so it seems), etc. Oh, I'm also enjoying a better and larger percentage of Cosade and Bigbus' inputs/contributions. Keep it up guys! Some people dey write OP with serious authority for this thread so sha oh, make una take am easy before una just go mislead applicants unnecessarily jor.... 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by DebsMed: 7:37pm On Aug 05, 2017 |
DebsMed: Yippee! US visa interview done and dusted. Apologies ahead please, this may end up being a long post. Background: Refused first in '15 when I wanted to visit with my husband, some sort of honeymoon. Moved on to visit Dubai. Was back to the US Embassy mid 2016 because i wanted to visit for Easter without hubby this time and interview was going well and very smooth till it got to the point I was asked if I was pregnant and I answered in the affirmative (hubby and I resolved on this seriously), asked if I will birth in the US, I said I don't know yet as I was just only in the middle of my very first trimester, that answer did me in, and interview ends at this point with a refusal yet again but I was satisfied I didn't deny being pregnant because I know there will still be a tomorrow for me with the US Embassy. Next, I was in South Africa for a church programme and then Kenya (didn't do more than 5 days on any of these travels). Applied online for Canadian TRV (they too have refused me previously in 2012 before I got married and was yet young on my job) and was approved after over 6 months. Thanks to all those too numerous to mention that makes this thread thick particularly the one and only Lady Guinevere and NanaF too that was the first person that ever answered me in the part 1 of this thread, haven't seen her comment a very long while. Fast forward to early this week: VO: Hello (looking at her system) Me: Hello (with a smile) VO: How do you do? Me: I'm good. And you? VO: I'm good (still not lifting her head). Passport please (I hand her my passport)! Where in the US are you going? Me: I'm actually headed for Canada to visit my sister, she's celebrating her 40th, but I also will want to use this opportunity to spend 4 days in the US visiting and attending a friend's 35th birthday in Texas. VO: You have a Canadian visa? Me: Yeah, I have a Canadian visa on the passport (she flips through to check). VO: Are you married? Yes, I'm married and we are blessed with a son who will be one by September. VO: Okay. What do you do? Oh, I work with xxxx company as their xxxx Manager, we are into xxxx. VO: For how long now have you been at xxxx firm? Me: I've worked with them for 6 years now. VO:Pick up your visa in 3 days time at this place. Me: Thanks ma (Walks away).

My good people of Nairalander, Please if asked to State how much you earn in local currency and you work with international company and paid in USD, should i State the amount in USD or convert it to Naira. I'm confused here your answer will be greatly appreciated. Thanks |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by unclephilio123(m): 10:15pm On Aug 05, 2017 |
sihamey:You said if asked to state in local currency,that has answered the question. Local not foreign. Do you spend the dollar you received in Nigeria markets?Hope you converted it to Naira before spending it in our markets.Do yourself a favour by converting the salary in dollar,any know the how much it is naira. Bros,stop confusing yourself. |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by ogbuzulu: 10:26pm On Aug 05, 2017 |
cosade: Pls kindly throw more light on the. term 'strong ties" with regard to my post. thanks |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by cosade(m): 10:48pm On Aug 05, 2017 |
ogbuzulu: cosade: ogbuzulu: "Strong ties" is difficult to explain but I go try sha. Firstly you should know that the impression of VOs is that the visa applicant being interviewed has the intention to migrate. Meaning that he wouldn't come back to his home country when on non-immigrant visa (NIV) to US. That is the assumption whether justifiable or not. It is now the duty of the visa applicant to demonstrate that he'll return to Nigeria after his short visit. So it is usually assumed that if the applicant has strong ties to his country, there shouldn't be any reason for him not to come back home after his short visit. Though not true in all cases but that is the assumption. Assessment of strong ties can very subjective but commonsensical. You'll agree with me that someone with a very good job in Nigeria would not want to abandon his work for a life in US, which he's unsure of. As against someone without a good job or none at all, so such a person has nothing to lose by not coming back to Nigeria after his short visit. This is when good travel history could be advantageous but not a guarantee. At least someone that has been traveling to other countries and did not violate his visa condition may not likely to do so in this instance. Again, it is an assumption. Back to your case, you're a graduate probably unemployed. From your post, the strongest strength stated is your Uncle in US who wants to invite you. Unfortunately, the VOs doesn't see this as a strength rather they want to assess you on your own individual merit. I hope I was able to make some sense. 8 Likes |

sihamey: Convert to the local currency. Most embassies convert using oanda converter: https://www.oanda.com/currency/converter/ |

Can I just say one more time, and as multiple Pos on this forum have said, THE COLOUR OF THE PAPER IS IRRELEVANT! What is important is what is written on it showerses: |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by 9jaStar: 5:02am On Aug 06, 2017 |
What was in the letter you were given? Royals1: |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by TWoods(m): 6:02am On Aug 06, 2017 |
showerses: I suppose your company is sponsoring your trip to this conference? If that is so, you should have led with that right away. You do not expect the VO to believe that your company is going to let you walk away for a week or more for something that is of no benefit to them... neither do you expect her to believe that you are personally funding a trip that is supposedly going to benefit you in your job. |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by idolda: 6:07am On Aug 06, 2017 |
OmoBendel24: Thanks so much for this bro. Since no one answered my questions earlier I had completed the form and booked an appointment with only my Govt job salary and also chose "Others" instead of friend |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by cosade(m): 8:10am On Aug 06, 2017 |
fmsuhgar: Good that her Dad agreed to sponsor which I think is the right thing to do in this case. There is no standard for letter of invitation, it can be an email or handwritten, typed just to say you're inviting someone for ... bla....bla. However, this letter wouldn't add any value to her visa application but no harm in holding it. What is important is her ability to demonstrate that her Dad would be able to sponsor her for the trip conveniently, and hope that your friend's PG studentship would be factored in when viewing her strong ties. I wish her best of luck. |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by Biamoz(m): 8:33am On Aug 06, 2017 |
please friends, I need your advise. My 2013 DV lottery visa was denied on the ground that I used my country of residence (Gabon) as the foreign state of chargerbility. My visa fee was refunded after going through the interview and taking the finger print. I intend to attend a conference soonest which the organizer will send me an invitation letter and a guarantee letter to take care of all my stay in the US. Please my questions is as follow: (1) should I fill the form that I have a relation in the US? Because the 2013 DV lottery form has a name of my relation. (2). I have a stable business and how much should I fill as my monthly earning? (3) what documents should I include in my file since am a business man |
