Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by Jity: 8:23pm On Mar 16, 2018 |
Guys pls help give me some clarity,I got my us visa in May 2016 (B1/B2) for vacation to be sponsored by my customer and I was billed to stay with the cousin in San Antonio Texas,because of workload I couldn’t make it. Visa is expiring 11th of May and I have got some leave time now and bought a ticket for the 25th of March to return 13th of april(2weeks four days)to JFK New York to stay with a friend.Questions:would this change of destination be an issue? 2) Is there a possibility of being turned back because I haven’t used the visa since? PLS GURU’s help .....note I haven’t been to the US before |

Jity: Is it a tourism visa or B1 visa? If it's tourism you can visit U.S anytime just explain clearly and smartly why you couldn't visit U.S earlier. |

Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by OmoBendel24: 7:41pm On Mar 17, 2018 |
johnpoko: Risky, watch it.... The info supplied before and during the visa interview, did it indicate you got peeps out there, particularly this cousin in question and in Chicago? I have done full load before on a less than two weeks trip without issues but not on my first trip. |
Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by johnpoko: 8:24pm On Mar 17, 2018 |
OmoBendel24:Yes I indicated that I'm going to visit my cousin. I have a connecting flight from Chicago to my final destination, Philadelphia |

I'm yet to get the fuss about overload of a thing! One won't get his check-in luggage(s) until after clearing immigration (Boarder Police) nah? |

Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by seyewest(m): 10:20pm On Mar 17, 2018 |
johnpoko: I mean not sure you will survive secondary screen but if you're really spending 2 weeks how do you defend these luggages as your own because you can't say it's for your cousin. |
Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by seyewest(m): 10:35pm On Mar 17, 2018 |
nairacountry:Except if you're called in for extra security screening. |
Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by OmoBendel24: 10:40pm On Mar 17, 2018 |
seyewest: Not just at secondary inspection, that wahala can happen and "over one" at agriculture, that you have cleared immigration doesn't exactly mean you have crossed immigration. It is even the overzealous Chicago POE we are talking of here sef.... 1 Like |

What are the dangers in travelling to/from the US on two different airlines and airports? I want to enter through Atlanta on Air France and depart from JFK on Qatar Airways. Will it raise any red flag? Masters in the house please advise |
Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by OmoBendel24: 1:28pm On Mar 18, 2018 |
Ojiofor1: Is this a codeshare or multicity flight or what? If tickets are valid, no wahala.... Entering and departing from two different POEs is not wrong to the best of my knowledge, done so a couple of times with reasons understandable though. |
Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by Ojiofor1(m): 2:05pm On Mar 18, 2018 |
OmoBendel24: Went last August through JFK with Qatar(return ticket). My final destination was Saint Louis but I wanted to experience new York. I missed my return date and so, I bought Air France ticket and returned as the cost of reissuing the ticket and travel back to New York was almost the same. Now, I have Air France return ticket to the US through Atlanta and Qatar Airways rerurn ticket from the US from JFK |
Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by OmoBendel24: 2:35pm On Mar 18, 2018 |
Ojiofor1: You should be fine in my opinion provided the return leg (Qatar) out of the US is okayed for a specific date already before you show up at ATL. Understandable I seriously believe.... You aren't even a first time traveller to the US! |
Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by nairacountry(m): 2:43pm On Mar 18, 2018 |
seyewest: Your submission (quoted below) on Jity's enquiry made me asked the question bro. If B1, can't the person visit US anytime? [/b]"Is it a tourism visa or B1 visa? If it's tourism you can visit U.S anytime just explain clearly and smartly why you couldn't visit U.S earlier. Change of destination can be explained as well."[b] |
Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by OmoBendel24: 2:51pm On Mar 18, 2018 |
nairacountry: Visit for? Hope you know B1's coverage sha? First timers better do their best to use their visa according to category, stick to purpose of issuance. A B1/B2 visa issued to a first timer for conference purpose (B1) for instance may lead to issues if being used for holiday/vacation or birthing (B2) by same individual. Subsequently you can use it for whatever the B1/B2 cover 2 Likes |

OmoBendel24: I think what he was trying ask if he can travel to and fro with different airline... I think anybody with Nigerian passport can not do that... The airline staff will not allow you in unless you book a return ticket and cancel the outbound flight when you're stateside. |
Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by Lawd23: 3:59pm On Mar 18, 2018 |
seyewest: If you didn't attend the conference due to some reasons after the visa has been given to you, will it be okay you look for another conference to attend as a first timer, so you can use the visa for tourism purpose when next you're traveling. |
Re: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by seyewest(m): 4:03pm On Mar 18, 2018 |
nairacountry: B1 visa is strictly for conference,workshop,seminar etc and you must honor the purpose of getting the visa before using it for tourism meaning you're free to use it for tourism/visit after using it as business visa first. 1 Like |
