Okay. So my time was for 10am this morning. I got there at 8.50am. There was no crowd at all today, right from the gate where they do the checks till I got inside.

Immediately I got in, I was directed straight for biometrics, as there was no queue. After the biometrics, I was praying there would be a little queue so I can atleast rehearse in my head before I am called upon. Lol. But no, immediately after biometrics, I was directed to an empty counter straight for the interview.

Below is the transcript:
A white guy on glasses attended to me.
VO: Good morning
Me: Good morning *with a smile*
VO: Can I have your passport?
Me: Hands it over
VO: Why do you want to go to America?
Me: I will be going on my annual leave, so would use that opportunity to spend it with ...... (a family, they are family friend)
VO: How long have you known them?
Me: I have known them for over 10years
VO: Where do they stay?
Me: ........ US
VO: How long are you staying?
Me: 14days
VO: Where do you work? *he is typing *
Me: I mentioned where I work, and what I do together.
VO: Have you travelled out before?
Me: Yes, been to the Uk severally since 2010, dubai twice, Kenya and Ghana. *he is also flipping through my passports and checking.
VO: Are you single or married?
Me: Single
VO: Any kids?
Me: No
*He continues typing*
*keeps my passport on the box beside him, and brings out the white paper. Pick up at the circled location...bla bla.
Me: Thank you...
Leaves there, with a wide grin.

I got in at 9.30 and by 9.45 I was out. Even before my 10am time. Interview itself took about 5mins.

Sincerely I tap from your testimony, I trust and believed God that I will testify positively the way you did yours to this forum, and in Jesus name I claimed it and I said Amen to that.

Please what size of passport photo did you go with?, in case if they need it. Is it the size of 4 per a print, or the size of 8 per a print?

Chibuking81:

It's a soft copy I uploaded, because I snapped the passport photo with my techno pad, edited it to get the KB size they needed. I still have the soft copy and that is what I want to print out, but I want to know the size, or is it any size inasmuch as it's the same uploaded passport photo?.

Teshoma11:
yes. You are right.
My koko shoe alone sef

OmoBendel24:

OmoBendel24:

Thank you

vibrant99:
God bless you bro, I was worried.

Most people use agents and they come here and sound like they are the ones who applied themselves.

Agents will say there are no dates again that they have to pay someone to give them an earlier date.

No matter what, dates for B-1/B-2 cant be more than 2 weeks available anytime you want to apply.

N.B Which interview center is this please? Lagos/Abuja?

OmoBendel24:


And @the purple coloured part includes peak periods, abi? Your air of authority in yarnings sha, hian! Oga, you never jam where people dey monitor and hustle for appointment date when e scarce, you never jam....

Of course people may cancel appointment and it becomes up to the fastest finger to snatch, but that you downplay scarcity of appointment dates like you just did above, that isn’t correct. You have some idea, but reduce the authority with which you assert, please....

Drlag:
Pls nairalanders, I need your advise.
I had applied to the US for visit visa last year but was denied. In my application, I was going for vacation/ sight seeing on my own...no invitation letter.
This year, my cousin who entered the US through masters programme, later got married and stayed back is willing to invite me. So my questions are??

1. Does US questions the mode of entering the by the person inviting the applicant even though he/ she now lives there legally
2. Should I still maintain my initial plan of visiting without INVITE or get the invite from my cousin as this will reduce financial expectation from me

Thanks.

Your chances are as bright as ever if you could prove home ties. First, think about something that would bring you back to your home country before you apply for visa.

Home ties;

Having a good job, good salary and good bank statement.
Good family business.
Working in a good company or reputable organization
Marriage.
Property like land, assets, trust accounts.
Being in the university and so on.

My People, I have been a silent reader here for a long time and i really appreciate what the GURUS here have done. LadyG, Seyewest, Omobendel and all, Una don try well well.
So i have some worries here. I attended my Interview weeks back in Abuja and i was given 2 papers, one for pick up and the other for administrative processing. Now the VO stated there that i would not need any further document and that they would get back to me through my email when my VISA is ready. My point is that its been 3 weeks and i have not seen any email from them and its still On Admin process. I am a little worried as i would love to get my Ticket sharply since i am seeing some very great deals of less then 300k around my travel time. Please Gurus Advice...
