Thank your Mother who is obviously praying for you.
Your agent is probably using stolen cards to buy tickets. The card owner found out and the return leg was cancelled.
The embassy could have detained and handed you over to PoliceNG along the Invictus Obi angle
.
A reason why US Govt is hard on Nigerians today is online and card fraud.

True that but thankfully I reported the case to the police when I got back cuz the agent failed to refund me and it turned out their were other petitions against him from other victims.

Good day all, i plan to travel to the U.S with my wife in December for 2weeks vacation. I am self employed and my wife is an engineer working with an engineering firm and we intend staying at a cousin's place during the vacation. Please what are our chances of getting a visa, when is the most appropriate time to apply and is there any document my cousin can provide that can increase our chances? Thank you

She can help you fill the ds160 and booking confirmation, but make sure she take note of everything she is filling on the forms, so wen ask on the interview day, your response should tally with what she fill online. She will send you a pdf file to print out for your interview. Search for F2 visa interview questions and practice well. Wish you all the best.


Thank you for this, i really appreciate!

LOL! No need to do it in person, machines do it. How do you think so many Nigerian scammers are arrested in US or recently leaving US? The difference is only in who was sent to jail (even found and brought to American Justice from another country, even from Nigeria and confiscated their properties) and the small scammers just left under observation until it is worth it to jail them and get all their money. It's all about money, follow the money.
And of course if you stay 1-5 months in US and not working, then no more visa for you. Go to be a fake tourist somewhere else.

I'm sorry to say this to you ''You don't know anything'' The reason that guy was arrested was because their was an arrest warrant (by FBI) on him while he was in U.S and the only way to arrest him was when he's returning to Nigeria.
U.S is one of the few countries you can literally disappear, and those scammers it's their time to face justice.

Thanks for the reply. The first time I went for the visa interview I was refused and after 4 weeks I applied again with same info and got the visa. I was neither married or with kids, I went on vacation but my travel plans changed, I will give the reasons why.

The ticket I bought from an agent ended up being one-way even though I paid for a return ticket, he got the date I was traveling on the ticket but never fixed the date I was returning even though I reminded him severally before we both parted at the airport (don't ask me how that is possible) grin, so when it was time for me to return, I realised there was no history of a return ticket, the agent promised to rectify the issue week after week until it became evident I had to buy another ticket. That's just one reason why, I don't want to share the other for personal reasons.

I'm convinced the refusal was on the grounds of the travel ban, just to make it more tough for Nigerian's to travel there and nothing more cuz the VO was very mean to everyone he attended too, if I knew I would have just switched queue undecided

If your ticket is a one way ticket from Lagos and you're on tourist visa, no airline will allow you boarding to U.S, I'm very sorry but this lie will not work oooo, do you know what they called APIS? APIS is Advanced Passenger Information System used by CBP to identify travelers to U.S and to fish out likely drug mule, terrorist etc.
3 months is U.S is a no no.... eat your L and look for another country.

He’s just trying to test his story. All this talk about agents and one way ticket is not true. Even if this was the issue, would it take 3 months to be resolved? How did he stay 3 months in the US without working? A single man with a job not a mother who just birthed. He should stop insulting our intelligence and come clean. Instead, he’s busy castigating the VO and playing self righteous talking about appealing. No wonder the VO was annoyed.

A friend with 4 US Visa was also rejected cos he visited and stayed for a month. Told me he was asked why he stayed for a month despite having 6 months stamped on his passport.

Even if you stayed for 1 week, they will find another excuse to take you down.

Embassy just using excuses to knock people off.

Lolz! And from the way the VO warned him about unintelligent lies, some extras may have even gone through his mind sef, like "one more stupid lie from this guy, I will just tear/'wear' him one sound slap if my hands could just be unrestrained". Saying this because of all his boldness and effrontery at doing wrong and defending same dumbly, imagine him thinking Dropbox would have las las helped him dodge this refusal and saying that "most peeps here are too sentimental", this isn't one of such, he still doesn't know what he's up against, but "eyes go definitely clear am soon"!

Perhaps. I booked a flight to Lagos from New York yesterday and I was asked to come along with the credit card I used for the booking to the airport on the day of travel. It hasn't happened to me before. I don't know if it is because it is a Delta Airline direct flight to Lagos.

Your initial answer was absolutely correct. "If your ticket is a one way ticket from Lagos and you're on tourist visa, no airline will allow you boarding to U.S"

This new scenario about cancelled return leg does not make sense. If you have a return ticket and you cancel the return leg before you depart, you effectively have a one way ticket which will raise concerns with the airline. They will not board you. Airlines are very careful about situations like this because if a non compliant passenger is denied entry into the destination country upon arrival, the airline will be liable to significant fines.

Just a little heads up for everyone. If you know you overstayed the days you filled in your ds160 form. There's a possibility of refusal. The best thing is to pray seriously before you go to the embassy. During my renewal I was asked severally if I will adhere to the dates I put down in my form. I said yes. The VO typed something oooo. They take these things serious.

To the dude that stayed 3months. Nna, if you get job for Naija, there's no way you'd stay that long in the US. Let's not kid ourselves. Even if you had ticket issues, you would have gotten a direct flight back home to continue your business. I keep telling Nigerians, if you think you are smart, these guys are smarter. They've seen all sorts.

Please understand this. He is being called out because he started out painting the VO in a negative light for denying his renewal when it was obviously due to his own malfeasance. In addition, his position is untenable, but he continues to maintain his ground and try to justify with evolving explanations. The VO was pissed off to the extent that he literally called him a liar to his face and said he is unintelligent. These are very strong words addressing his own unique situation and have nothing to do with a perceived vendatta against Nigerian's as he would make us to believe. The piling on serves as a reminder to folks that "He who comes to Equity must come with clean hands". If you come here seeking help, please be honest with us and yourself. Tell the full story with the whole truth. Don't hold back important details. There are knowledgeable folks on here that may initially castigate you for the errors in your ways, as a deterrent to others, but will quickly move on to advice on how to proceed. It is the same hands that are used in beating that are also used in hugging!

They have been doing this for years, nothing new. This happens especially when the ticket is in a different name than the name on the cc.

Inasmuch as I have my reservations on @tunlaji's reasons for longer stay in USA, I will still say we should endeavor to sometimes give people the benefit of doubt. Yes, it seems quite impossible to go to the USA with a one way ticket (that i barely believe, almost 0% possible); however, it is possible the agent might have booked return ticket inclusive but after getting there, the return ticket cast like my goons would say.

@Seyewest: There is always room to be JJC; sometimes, family pressure may set in to make someone use a particular agent that the family is using for years.

When I was going to Dubai few years back, I went together with a friend. I have always been of the opinion of doing it myself but my friend (the one we went together) persuaded me to patronize one of his customers who is a travel agent, in order to aide my friend's business (Own several restaurant on the island), i heeded. The agent gave us options and we were explicit that we don't want the usage of fake cards; eventually, at the airport in Dubai while coming back to Nigeria after a week of vacation, we got to know our flight was cancelled. We spent extra days in Dubai, seemed the agent might have used a fake card, had to book another flight, we incurred additional cost (but i ensured i didn't overstayed). Sometimes, people fall victim of this without knowing. However, some people tend to request for such service.

Though you guys may be right that telling a VO such without properly constructing you words may tend to seem like a lie; however, what he was saying may be true but with a little twerk. I support never to use an agent for anything because most are liars, however is not madness (@fkj950ax), na JJC dey cause am.

@Tunlaji: Endeavor to do the necessary, sit down and think of how best to put your words to the VO next time, don't try to complicate your situation the more. You may try to visit other countries (use a week or 2), so as to show a change in the use of tourist visa. Try to reread people's advise, use those you think you may need even if it seems like an attack, we love you to succeed.
