Habisoye: @KaptainAfrika has advised you. Hope you managed to correct what the "@agent don kill me" did to your DS160? And that you got the hotel that is not 24 hours drive away. Sometimes, inconsistencies in the DS160 could be the cause of a denial. Sir, take a break from the US, visit other countries, establish yourself as someone that takes vacation every one or two years; the Strategic Air Command will be yours to see in a few years. 1 Like |

tjeez1: It's a tough call for a first timer with no travel history, especially if you are young (like below 65). Take your time to study this thread and you will see. You will need to demonstrate to the VO that you will come back soon to your family, that your job is a very secure one that you will not abandon at will (travel history would have helped to show this, especially if you had financed a trip: you + your wife previously). Go through the thread, assess your situation very well; pray; and decide whether to give it a go, or save your money and make a cheaper vacation that can also count as travel history in future. |

Dear Gurus in the house, Please what is the 'best' response to the question ; Why are you visiting the US? Particularly when one is not travelling with the whole family. I remember reading on this thread that vacation is not the right answer.Because the Americans percieve vacation to be like 'family time'. Is Tourism and sight seeing okay? I have perused the thread but i just need further clarification on this. |

pushy8: Really, really, the best answer is the truth. You must have your reasons. Those ones make the best answer. Make sure they make sense to you first, then you will find it easier to relate them at your visa interview and the POE, if asked. |

Hello pushy8 - The best response is the truth. Tourism and vacation are basically the same thing. Tell us why you are visiting if that is what's asked. pushy8: |

Good evening gurus and everyone, Firstly, I will like to encourage everyone to take time out to read this page from the very first page. It's painstakingly but the knowledge here assisted me in avoiding touts and agents. Transcript for today's interview @ window 3( A young girl) Vo: Good morning Me: Good morning Vo: Why do you want to go to the United States? Me: I want to attend the traditional and white wedding ceremony of my childhood friend in................ , to show support for their union and share in their joy, thank You. Vo: I see your dad is late Me: Yes Vo: I'm sorry about that Me: Thank you. Vo: Was your dad a citizen? Me: I was told by the visa officer years ago that he was a green card holder. Vo: What do you do? Me: I'm the CEO of ............ Entertainment and bar. Told her my Functions. Vo: Are you married Me: No, I'm engaged. Vo: Any children Me: (with a honest smile) I just found out I'm going to be a dad two days ago. Vo:What does your "WIFE" do? Me: She is fashion designer. Vo: Have you traveled out before? (why flipping through my passport) Me: No After tying for few seconds, stretch her hand and handed me a paper on why I can't get the visa, though white paper but not the real white paper if you know what I mean. So guys that's it, I knew my ties of not traveling and others was low but to be honest, travelling is not really my thing, I have a good business and can sponsor myself. if not for wedding, I don't think I will want to visit after I was denied immigrant visa years ago. But here is my little worry, I have a feeling that my application then ruined my chances,I just hope nothing has gone wrong. Here is a brief story of how it happened cause I was young then. My step brothers are both citizens but my dad filled for me when he went there for visit twice. So after the medical test and all, the interview date came like a year or two after my dad died, I was told by the visa officer then that I cannot get a visa cause I can't prove through DNA that he is my father. My step brother said he filled a petition for us over there but till date I don't know how it went. I can't ask him and he won't even say cause our relationship has gone down the drain after father died. Two things on my mind, either the Vo perceive that i would still want to immigrate or that petition filled by my brother has something to do with it with cause I wasn't expecting that question though I wrote it out in the form. Specials thanks to everyone, can't mention names cause it's a very long list. You guys rock. Sorry for the long epistle. 3 Likes |

Good evening everyone, please I need your advice I was denied Visa in May I was supposed to attend a conference so the agent I used filled my form which she filled wrongly - she wrote that I don't have relatives in US, that there's no need writing I have relatives there since I am going for a conference My uncle wants to invite my family and I for Christmas please I need to know if this can stand against us |

My mum was stamped in for 6 months, I don't want her to overstay her visa cos I have plans for her to visit again next year. However,I want to milk this her stay very well, please my people if she leaves few days to the end of her six months will cause problems for her when she wants to come back a couple of months later? And again, how can I change her return ticket date with Qatar.Thanks |

Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by KaptainAfrika: 11:27am On Aug 11, 2017 |
Wait. You just told us the following: 1. You filled that you have no relatives in your first application; 2. Now in the second application, you are going to tick 'yes' to the question 'do you have relatives in the US'; 3. I am not a VO, but your credibility is damaged. It pays to be honest, even if you don't get the visa. 4. MY FELLOW NIGERIANS, THE US IS NOT LIKE NIGERIA, WHERE WE DON'T CARE ABOUT KEEPING RECORDS. I ATTENDED MY FIRST INTERVIEW IN ABUJA, AND THERE WAS A MAN WHO WAS TOLD ABOUT A CREDIT-CARD FRAUD, HE COMMITTED IN 1975! lizzyfash27: 3 Likes 1 Share |

You may stammer and get the visa. You may murder english and get the visa. You may speak coherent, queens english and still be denied. But whatever you say and how you say it, let it make sense to you first, and it will probably make sense to the VO. pushy8: 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by KaptainAfrika: 11:31am On Aug 11, 2017 |
1. How long did she say, she was going to stay in the US, on her form and at her interview? 2. Depending on her age, they could overlook her staying that long, so long as it does enter into 'overstay' zone. IMHO. 3. The other's is best answered by the VO (@AbujaNIV) and resolved by the airline. efavour: |
