Before you get to the interview, your visa had already been tentatively approved or denied. It takes your performance at the interview for the VO to reverse whatever decision that has been made.
True say.

I remember my visa interview to one country (name withheld), one cute lady interviewed me.

Visa officer: have you traveled before
Me: No

Visa officer: (smiling) are you married?
Me: (thinking she is flirting) No I'm single and searching?

Visa officer: sorry your Visa has been denied. (Stamps big rejection on my passport)

People started laughing in the back. Shame catch me that day.

For a very large number of applicants, their applications have been decided before they even set foot in the embassy. It's why they ask some one or two questions before giving you giving you a reply.
Can you please throw more light on this?
Thanks.

@ op you tried but I disagree with this write to some extent.
I have been to 20 visa interview before most embassies started using VFS and I have been denied only twice, also I am a travel consultant so I experienced in this area.

1. No matter how expert you are in application or documentation, there is always a little mistake in one or two area.

2. Dressing doesn't matter at all, the interviewer don't care about how you dressed but that doesn't mean you should do to interview naked. I and my clients have wore some crazy dress to interviews and got the visa.

3. You are nervous or not doesn't concern the interviewer, inshort incase of America embassy if you are too smart or claiming to be smart they will still "knack you Akpako" lol.

With my experience, 80% of why Nigerians don't get visa is
1. fake documents: No matter how smart u think you are on fake documents, the interviewer has seen a lot of that and can tell your sincerity.
2. No enough tie back home here in Nigeria. You must prove that you have many reason to come back if you are granted visa.
3. Lack of travel experience: Number one culprit for visa refusal.

Even if you have all the right documents, have good tie back home, have good travel experience and all that the interviewer can still denied you visa base on quota.
Do lack of travel experience affect someone applying for a study visa?
I'd like to know, please.

When you submit your application, it goes through different processes e.g like security where they'll investigate if you are a potential terrorist or not.

By the time you appear for the interview, most times, it's a mere formality. It why they ask you questions you've already answered in your applications.

If you go to the visa thread, you'll see a lot of people saying the visa officer did not look at them at all but if you were interviewing someone and truly wanted to get information from them, you'll watch them to see their body language and reaction to certain questions.
