@seyewest put you through the process for you to change the 3 months information on your form before your interview. All your details are still on their site. You cannot be a business owner today and tmr you are suddenly employed, that is red flag already. Try and disvirgin your passport before attempting to reapply and give it some time so you do not appear desperate.

Hello house! I had my interview yesterday in Abuja, but unfortunately I didn’t get it. Your thoughts were right. The 3months stay spoilt it I guess. So many families/individuals were given pink paper yesterday. I wasn’t scared though, I was hopeful
Here goes my transcript.

VO: Good morning
Me: Hello good morning (with a smiling face)
VO: can I have your passport?
Me: (hands passport over to her)
VO: have you traveled before?
Me: no, never had a reason to travel outside Nigeria
VO: So why are you going to Ohio?
Me: I’m going to visit fam; my sis, her hubby & their 2 kids. I want to go spend time with them
VO: I can see you want to stay for 3months
Me: no please, that was a mistake on my path while I was filling the form
VO: so how long do you intend to stay?
Me: I would like to stay for 4weeks
VO: ok, what do you do?
Me: I’m a business person, I import ... from China & Vietnam & sell here in Nigeria. I also sell... here...
(She listened carefully & was nodding)
VO: ok. Are you married?
Me: no, but I’m taking care of my dad here, he has ...(at this point I wasn’t audible)
VO: (nodded then brought out the pink paper & my passport) sorry you are not qualified blablabla

I felt bad, like my world became dark at that instant. But yeah! I’ve gotten the experience, I made silly mistakes while filling the form & I guess that affected me. Next time will be better.

Also, my dad reapplied through Dropbox, but he was told to reschedule for interview when he picked his passport yesterday at dhl office. So my question is this, is there a time frame to which he can reschedule or at anytime? Also if he goes for the interview, he needs someone there with him because he has hearing difficulty, so we’re thinking I apply again then book appointment the same day with my dad so that I can assist him.

I’ll get an employment letter from my uncle to show that I’m an employee in his company, that means I now have a job added to my business. What do you think guys?

You will do better next time, am sure you know why you were rejected.

Got a rejection today.

groovychik:
You will do better next time, am sure you know why you were rejected.

I don't know y i was rejected oooo

Cos am still trying to know which 1.

Why am I fuming now? Okay, I’m coming to address you one after the other! Una ojoro too many abeg, unfortunately na Aruba dem una dey follow deal aswearit down. Keep underrating the US consulate, their visa processes, intelligence gathering and all, una hear.

Where you the one that made these mistakes yourself?

Even if you like make you naked go meet VO based on nothing wey dey hide, if dem go reject you, na outright rejection.

Make una no dey too hype this people..., Intelligence gathering based on say dem go tap ur phone , follow you for twitter, abi ask for ur friend on facebook abi na the DS-160 form wey you fill?

Nigerians have to slow down big time.

Canada will take 8 Months to process ur application and deny you, reapply and they grant you visa in 2 weeks... what are we even saying?

Na subjective decisions abeg, all this terrorists that get UK visa like water everyday, abi you don''t know tht the highest concentration of islamic concentration is UK?.... Has the UK disappeared?

They want to slim down the rate of Visas Simple!!!, let them tell the people so they don;t waste their money applying, Germany needs foreigners atleast 1million every year.

hmmmm...I can't believe a Nigerian made that statement!

Like Omobendel pointed out, it looks like you used an agent. Even if you didn't, Homestay and building contractor definitely raised the flags and reduced your chances. I will advice you get on to Quora.com and follow the posts a retired VO called "Kathry Berck" responds to. You need to understand that the VOs default posture is not to give you visa, if you give them any doubt then you make it easy for them. They are trained not to give visas until you convince them. Good luck

Yes oooooo.....i feel my form myself,i do everything myself ooooo.

That y e no pain me as the only money wey i loss na visa fee

A VO may be convinced a bit later after your DS-160 has been reviewed before you come, because some infos are not contained in it.

But they would still reject you, thats why applying again is a good choice.

I tried to retrieve the form but it didn’t work, I guess it was network then. I was also scared as a first timer thinking I might spoil something on the form.
Is there no way I can add a paid job & business as well if I’m filling another form again?

Agbaletu:

hmmmm...I can't believe a Nigerian made that statement!

Pls what wrong in what i said.
I didn't mean bad all i was saying was y feel bad if a foreigner can be rejected y not a Nigerian with all the lack of trust they have in Nigerian.
I truly wish they got it cos i don't know y they applied.my own na to go play for 10days shikana.


PLS STOP THE MISINTERPRETATION.

I was also rejected today even after a rescheduled appointment! I have been to the USA five times and I was wondering what would have gone wrong till I saw the '3 months stay'! I actually stayed for up to 3 months. I am a lecturer and was on vacation when I heard schools were on strike I had to extend my stay till when it was almost over! I am very confident but when I saw the way the pink form was being dished out today I lost my composure and I think I blabbed a bit in some of my questions which the VO asked!!!!! She asked about my stay for 3 months and I told her also asked what I was going to do in America in April told her asked me about my family and who will take care of them told her there were in school,where I worked told her maybe because of my shaky voice and non composure that I was denied I can't say because I answered all the questions she asked!!!!!

So sorry for the refusal. you know VO's actually visit these pages and even have their own threads here. You just opened a thread stating you wish to relocate to Barbados, hence, they just might see your refusal as the right decision, considering your lack of ties here. Will advice you wait till you actually have a genuine tourist/conference purpose.

abiolagenius:

Lol i no pray for am o.. i never marry but i don go Dubai once.. When u been go u carry Bank statement along?

Yes. The refusal was today o. I just first reach KFC chop first. Then make I reason to come back maybe for revenge. That kind actor no day die for film thing, you sabi na
