How can hotels there be cheaper?

txxx Bro, I will compare

Going through these posts I thought I had shared a summary of my interview transcript earlier in the year . I woke up one morning and figured that I hadnt been to USA since 2013 and talked my sister into spending this years vacation in the US. I completed the form, payed the fee online and reserved an interview slot. On the eve of the interview I worked overnight and left the office at 5am to my house. Took a bath and headed to the consulate.First turn off was when I was directed to a parking lot a few meters into Walter Carrington crescent and was told its 1,000 to park. I grudgingly attested and walked to towards the US consulate at about 6:20am for a 7am interview. The crowd was amazingly huge with most people in their best behavior. Patiently queued up and waited for my turn. In the course of queuing up a female police rank & file asked me for 1,000 naira to hold my token as I wont be allowed in with it but I rejected her offer and kept the token on an opening above the transparent shade under which we queued. Slowly completed formalities with CGI and proceeded to the main embassy building across the road. Went through a queue, enrolled my finger print and queued up for the interview: As soon as I was called I walked to the window and passed my passport along with a DS160 confirmation page

ME: Good Morning
VO: Morning
VO:Why are you going to the US?
ME: To spend part of my annual vacation
VO: WHere in the US are you going to ?
ME: New YOrk City
VO:Why New York?
ME:Because I love spending my vacations in big cities
VO types for a while
VO:What do you do for Bleep XXXX PLC
ME: I design and develop software solutions for their FinTech division
VO: Tell me more about that
ME: I summarized what I do for my employer.
VO types for a while and starts to flip through my passport
VO: I see you studied in the US a while ago. What did you study
ME: Software Engineering (I wonder how he knew cuz I left USA 7 years ago after my studies and didnt have the passport I used back then with me)
VO: I can also see you studied in the UK. Was it software engineering you studied also
Me: No I studied for a general graduate degree IT
VO: What did you go to Do in Netherlands in 2015
ME: I went on vacation
VO: Was that while you were studying in the UK ?
Me: YEa
VO: When last were you in Europe

VO types a bit
VO: YOur visa is approved and you will be sent a tect message when your passport is ready to pick up (he circles the DHL collection centre address) and passes me the white paper with the address
Me: THank you


Interview as too long. I expected a 2 - 3 minutes interview
Last 5 years travel history: Been to UAE twice, Bahrain once, Ghana (4 times), Togo (once), SA (once), Netherland (Twice) SPain (thrice), France(twice) , Italy (once), UK (eleven times),

I guess visa is more difficult now maybe due to this Canada thingy.

YEs you can

how?

My interview is on June 12,just got an lnformation that the government has declared it public holiday,will the interview still hold,what should I do.guru in the house.

seyewest:
In 3 months time another set of people will say we're prouding and senseless.....

Splendid decision...

Don't stay in Dubai Emirate, things are really expensive there.
Stay in Sharjah Emirate and come do whatever sight seeing you need do in Dubai.
Sharjah is cheaper, less rowdy.
Enjoy.
Most of their hotels will pop out on google they are big names.

@SSamuelo

From next year

President Muhammadu Buhari Wedneady proclaimed June 12 as the country’s Democracy Day to be celebrated as a public holiday from next year in commemoration of the momentous June 12, 1993 Presidential elections won by Chief Moshood Abiola.

onyxo76:
This visa cancellation thing at the Poe just got messier, I chatted a while ago with a close friend who had to abort his family trip at the Chicago airport over the weekend, every Nigerian with kids got their visas cancelled on the spot. He had already got some Intel from someone who works at the said airport and messaged the wife to fill a voluntary return form upon arrival and come back home, at least their visas are still valid till next year. Not only families were denied entry but almost all Nigerian passengers too were sent back.
It's really rough now, if you don't have any thing official to do in USA I suggest you go elsewhere for now until things soften up.
The waste of resources pain my paddy no be small

Is this for real? I don’t believe everyone with Nigeria passport were sent back. Atleast they ask questions or interview you , depends on how you answered, they can’t just start revoking like that. And how can one person know if visa was revoked? The highest thing you know if the person was taken inside for extra scrutiny except you are close to him to know how far or waiting for him in the airport.
