Ifeteh:Luckily for you if you read this thread from Part1 to Part3 you will have enough resource to go through the interview successfully. |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 3 by Ifeteh: 2:40pm On Jan 24, 2018 |
Thanks for the reply have gone through the thread now my other question is what document should I take there Will my wedding certificate be required since d name on my passport is not my husband name and am not traveling with him |

Ayoola222:Yes. He will write to the enbassy and state all the details. No matter what happens, it will be the best course of action. It's better than a ban |

Ifeteh: It depends on couple things; Firstly, was u married before applying for passport or the other way around..? If it was the former then thats not good cos it becomes questionable as to y it wasn't so on your passport; if its the latter then proof of marriage (marriage certificate ) and/or birth certificate of children would take care of this.. |

Note to all prospective applicants , if it happens that you have something to say especially your strong point, please spill it out.dont wait but not like reciting nursery rhymes. Sular123: |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 3 by franklynx(m): 5:26pm On Jan 24, 2018 |
Let me add to your knowledge: The major reason one is approved or denied visa is ability or inability to prove "STRONG TIES"(Family,job,landed properties,businesses, etc) once u can convincingly prove this then you're 70% sure of getting it.. |

You Re on point.actually visa with honeymoon. evanic: |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 3 by franklynx(m): 5:43pm On Jan 24, 2018 |
Dwanar: I really dont get on here very often but i will tell you that you are good as long as you have a hotel confirmation and a strong explanation why u chose a hotel and/hotel location instead of listing a relative's abode. This surely adds to your self dependence as far as expenses is concerned which is a very good thing. I would advice you state 2 weeks as maximum stay in the United States. I.e u still gon be issued 6 months regardless. Show that u have strong ties back home and an outstanding job n u good 2 go |

Having learnt a lot through the different transcripts posted on this forum, I think it is ideal to give back. Transcript Appointment time was 8:45 am. Got to the embassy around 7:30 am, a family of 4. Went in by 8a.m. We were directed to meet a young Lady after waiting on the queue for Passport Scanning and Fingerprint All of us: Good morning V.O: Hello Guys V.O: What is your relationship Myself: Family V.O: Where are you going in the United State Myself & Wife: New York City V.O : Where will you be staying in New York Myself: xxxxxx Hotel in New York City V.O: Has this been booked Myself: Yes V.O: Where do you work ? Myself: xxxxxx Bank as .......... V.O: Mentioned some of your clients Myself: Mentioned about 4 names and asked her if she is okay or I should just continue. At this point she was looking at my face and mentioned that she is fine V.O: How long have you been working there Myself: About 6 years, 5 Years 8 months precisely V.O: Are you with the company introduction letter Myself: Not here but I have the ID Card and my Call Card her. Ask if she would like to see it but she said NO To my wife V.O : Where do you work Wife: Mentioned the name of the company V.O: For How long Wife: About 1 year To both of us V.O : Have you travelled out of the country before Both: Yes, we went to Ghana last year Easter Period for our Family Vacation V.O: She checked all the International Passport to confirm it. V.O: Do you have relative in the US Both: NO She started typing for a while , raised her face and asked again, Do you have family in the US? Chorus Answer : NO V.O : Your visa has been approved, took out the white paper and circle the collection centre. I hurriedly collected the white paper, carried my daughter while my wife carried our son who both seated on the basement through out the period of the interview which lasted for about 5 minutes. The only travel experience we had was a road trip to Ghana last year as wife just started working and was not entitled to leave. Thus, we had to ensure we came back on Easter Monday so that she could go to work on Tuesday. My Learning Point was that we were not under any pressure because we have made up our mind that if we did not get it we would travel to another country. We give glory to the Almighty GOD for the Grace and we say congrats to all the brains behind this forum. 10 Likes 1 Share |

Re: USA Visit Visa Part 3 by franklynx(m): 6:43pm On Jan 24, 2018 |
Just exactly what I mentioned in the last post just b4 this. Choosing a hotel as a place you be staying is fine as long as you prove/show booking or reservation; telling them also u had a great job showed your strong “Ties to Naija..” Nice job well done!!

LegitBachelor: I think u good to to apply by yourself and not with your mum this time cos I believe you guys are traveling for different reasons plus your situation has changed since 2015 when u got denied as your academic stand has enormously improved. Sure to have your mum joint sponsor you as pensions are less regarded as a proof of financial standing compared to a stable job. Also,your mum is good to apply alongside your kid sister. As for Qs; What has changed since your last application; Where n what school u going to in the US; Y choose the US and not other country; How long is your program/course for; Do u have anyone in the US; Why you chose your field and your future plans after graduation from the school in US.. Get a basic knowledge about what u studying and y u chose that school; Who is sponsoring you/paying your tuition n whAt do they do/source of income And plzzzz don’t tell him u have an Uncle in the US... it’s damn irrelevant n could screw u up.. Good luck!! |

I have been a silent reader in the form. And trust me it has been helpful and am greatful to the authority of this forum. I had my interview yesterday 23rd jamuary in lagos around 8am with my wife and 4months old baby Transcript Vo: good morning Wify and I: good morning Vo : passport please Me: passed the passport over to her Vo: you are a couple Wify and I: yes Vo: why are you travelling to the Us Me: for a short family vacation Vo: where do you work Me: I work at the federal ****** Vo: what position Me: Administrative officer Vo: you have been to London before( saw that from my old passport Wify and I : yes Vo: did you go there for schooling Wify and I: we went on a vacation Vo: how long have you been working sir Me: 6years Vo: where do you work ma Wify: bla bla bla Vo: what position Wify: laboratory chemist Vo: how long have you been working ma Wify: 6yrs Vo: tell us about you job Wify: she started blasting the vo with some chemistry terms Vo: how do you seperate your samples collect from the drilling mud Wify : started blasting the Vo again with some terms Vo: do you have anyone in the united states Wify and I : no Vo: brought out the white paper and told us to get our visas from the address circled on the paper next week tuesday. Wify and I : thank you ma with a broad smile My little advise is that this visa thing is subjective. Everyone will be interviewed differently. Jst be confident and be clean. * Dress decent, suit is not compulsory, Na native and sandals I wear. Wify wore a shirt and pant trousers.more than half of those who came in for the interview wore suit and tie or long sleeve and tie. * most importantly pray for grace and favour. Its very important. My son stated crying when we were on the interview que at the back. When the Nigerian security organizing the que called us " the woman with the crying baby come to the front. He took us straight to the vo who immediately interviewed us. All through my son was crying. * my wife's passport still has her maiden name while my sons passport has my name.

OmoBendel24: Of course ‘I DONT’..!!! Here in the US its no longer business as usual as having a relative here poses threat of immigration intent.. as in your uncle might help u stay back here and they don’t like that any longer.. Fact !! Especially since you ain’t got no strong ties back home in Naija.. u know a mean..?? |

OmoBendel24:Lying and twerking information is so easy to do nowadays.... I wonder why people don't think things deeply/thoroughly instead of putting yourself in unnecessary trouble. If it's necessary the U.S Embassy will investigate the uncle and if there's something amiss they won't issue the visa... Getting the white paper at the embassy does not mean you will get the visa. |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 3 by franklynx(m): 12:41am On Jan 25, 2018 |
seyewest: See make I tell u VO no go give u visa cos u tell the truth that is unacceptable..!! I don’t think u know as things be up here now unlike b4 wey OBAMA dey for throne... change is transient so VO understands that.. also interviews don’t last so much a time except your presented document appears spurious and/ or bogus... talking from experience bro.. Worst case u fit tell them he moved back to Naija to establish his business simple!! They really like to hear you returned/returning back to naija.. America no gbadun migration again oo |

franklynx: Lies, no matter how minute will always find a way to catch up with you. If you do not know, lies are so hard to maintain, you have to keep telling lies over lies to cover up for one lie. It’s on here that I read about someone that was denied renewal of a visa based on a lie that they told around 10years prior. People have been stripped of citizenships because they lied on their application or somewhere along the line. Before you lie, ask yourself “Is it worth it? Will I be okay suffering the consequences if I am eventually found out?” Peace. |
