Thanks for your response.

I helped her fill her DS 160 and I didn't see any where language to be interviewed with was specified.

Good morning folks. Kindly advice me on this: I applied for a student visa in 2007. I had to travel to lagos to sit for SAT exams as the centres were almost non existent in abuja then. Unfortunately I was issued a fake result. Unknowingly I took it to the embassy then and I was denied based on that document. Fast forward 12years after. I have an Msc, married with 3kids and work with an international development organisation. I now seek to apply to go to the US with just my wife and last born. My wife runs a business where she sells baby cloths and beauty products. I want to ask what are our chances of been issued a visa? Do you think I was banned when I first went to the embassy 12years ago? Is it better we apply to go the UK first before applying to the US embassy? Please not that I still do not have any travel history. I will appreciate your response and admonitions.

Your records are with the US EMBASSY, submitting fake documents is a serious offence which invariably makes you lose credibility even when you have a genuine one, with the current trend of recent with the US embassy, your chances are as slim as a cattle passing through the eyes of a needle, your chances however is only known to God, Jesus Christ
Allah, Ogun, obatala, orunmila, sango and ifa, but if you are ready to give me 10 cows, 10 goats 10 native big chickens, I can do the prayers for you and l will share the fried meats with all the posters on this thread, and going to the UK first might not cut it

ultimatebas:

Why do you wanna sleep at the embassy ? Is that your home? Lodge in a hotel in Victoria Island. So you have money to pay for visa and holiday expenses but DEAD BROKE when it comes to lodging in a hotel for one night before your interview? My fellow Nigerians , you guys never cease to amaze me.

EXLOVER:
My fiancee is planning to send me a Us invite, is there any possibility that my visa will be approve?


Another question, what are the process in sending an invite?

seyewest:


This is my own opinion, I will advise you to forget about traveling to U.S with your family for now, you need a solid travel history (Solid history according to U.S Embassy is E.U Countries, UK, Canada, Australia, Japan, South Korea and Scandinavian countries) you need to be trusted again and you should apply alone, no need involving your spouse, let your spouse apply alone.

TWoods:


Most likely not. You will be asked to get a K1 visa.

EXLOVER:
k1 she most visit me right?

No you cant sleep at the embassy.
Why did you pick a 645am slot?
There is 10k hotel at Obalende axis, or Lagos Island proper.
Find a friend in Lagos who will accommodate you, Yaba, Surulere, Obalende axis, give him the 10k. Take Uber and Taxify at 6am. You'd be there 645am...
Options are endless

OmoBendel24:


Good morning.

If you were banned you ought to know, because the VO surely would have informed you during/right after that interview. What was on the paper handed you by the VO after the interview? You have your answer there....

Meanwhile, whether you were banned or not, following Seyewest's advice will do you and your family a lot of good, really. Get some travel history (if you had this already, I would have advised you go ahead applying for the US visa alone at least) and do not unnecessarily get your family rubbed off upon with your "difference" with the America Embassy just yet, please.

overlord77:


Well, maybe this might be ok but at the same time, @tripleaa is not ready to come clean. Just as @twoods asked, How did he unknowingly get a fake SAT result?

Oh well, we live by our decisions in life. I wish him the best of luck though. Would have suggested they try Canada but those ones and US are like 5&5.

tripleaa:


I wanted to leave this issue me not wanting to come clean, but here is it. In 2007 I was very young and gullible. i never saw what a SAt result look like. All i had in mind was to go to school in the US and help improve the life of my poor family. I was told i can only register and write SAT in Lagos. I remember taking a night bus that day from the north and arriving Lagos in the very early hours of the next day. just brushed my teeth and headed to an office for the exams. The rest is what it is now. That's ok guys. thanks all for your comments.

TWoods:


Young and gullible is not an excuse. 15 year old Nigerians write SATs all the time. As at 2007, the internet was in existence. The ETS has had a fully functioning website full of all the information you might need on the SAT since at least 2002.

Please leave him. There's truth in what he is saying. If full grown adults are still falling for agents scam today, imagine what it wasike in 2007. Hopefully, things will turn out differently for him.


@tripleaa, please allow your wife to apply first. Take the travel history advice. It will surely help your case.

Spanishmilf:
2007
Probably that d time of blackberry
And the use of phone was not realy common cybercafe was d main deal he made a mistake that all

TWoods:


The typical ambivalence and tacit nod to fraud under the guise of “ignorance”. People were writing SATs in the 1990s and obtaining F1 visas when the only means of communication were paper brochures and old fashioned letters at the post office box. There is no excuse for taking a known fraudulent test result to the US embassy.

ifunanyamaka:

It means that all those who fall under that category and who's petitions have already been approved are now eligible to start their visa processing at NVC/Embassy as a visa is now available for them.
But since your I-130 petition has not been approved by USCIS, you do not qualify

dsaynt:
Hallo house. Please I need gurus in house to help answer this. TWoods etc.
At a recent US Visa interview, my application was denied because an itemized bill from a hospital erroneously showed that a discount was given. No such thing happened. It was an error of which a separate bill was later given. Unfortunately this older bill was presented mistakenly and the VO picked on that and denied the Visa. Despite explanations. But I don't blame the VO who was acting based on info available then.
On getting home. I now saw the corrected bill and I have now written to the US hospital and they have replied with attachments of the correct bill and explanations as to what happened to cause the initial error on the first bill.
My question is this...do I write to the embassy with the letters from the hospital attached or do I just reapply and if I want to reapply how long do I wait for.
Note..I am willing to wait. Not as if I am desperate or anything.
So gurus..your kind advice is welcome.
Twoods, 123JohnF etc...abeg your advice. Thanks in advance
