I'm not willing to encourage a crime or an offence, therefore I'll suggest that you use your God-given age which is 24. Do not do something that would change your natural entity the rest of your life, it's so much with Nigerians that they do anything to be entitled to what they are not suitable for: If your age is not suitable for this objective, why not measure your coat according to your age?

Your salary is not a problem at all, but your financial circumstance is; you can not apply for this category of visa without your bank statement: An adult who intends to travel to the UK as a visitor and is not able to fend for the trip and depends on another person for sponsorship does not meet the requirement for tourist or visit visa.

Ha, you wish to see me "face to face", does that mean you are willing to come to Dublin to see me?
Well, i prefer you come to Ireland to since i can't risk going to Jos where Muslims and "Christians" are testing the sharpness of their machetes on each other cry

I would have been able to suggest some countries before the recession, but now that the west is fighting the recession, no country wants to import labours so i really do not know of any country where Nigerian doctors can "easily" move to

The letter states that you'd be visiting the United States for "approximately 3 months, so be prepared to impress tge visa officer with your financial capability.
If I were you, I'd say 10 days even if I know that the standard visa is for 3 months.

The letter must be addressed to the embassy, but should be given to you to submit together with your other documents.

Re: A Comprehensive List Of The Documents Required For Visas by emperorabebe: 10:36am On Jun 24, 2013
Vicjustice: It is boring to hear people asking "what documents" that are required for this or for that visa, and i see that no matter how many individuals that are answered, there will continue to be many others who will ask the same question over and over and over again. It doesn't make much of a sense to ask this same question or to keep on answering it to everyone who asked it, so, i have decided to create this narrative list to answer the question conclusively.
Here are the documents that are required of visa applicants of every category.
This article is subject to modification and updates:

* Invitation letter or accommodation details from the country you intend to visit;
* (If on invitation by an individual,) a copy of the bio-data page of the passport of the person inviting you.
* Your national passport or travel document with at least 6 months to expiration;
* (If you are an alien resident in the country that you are applying from,) evidence of permission to remain in the country: ie, a residence permit or an appropriate long-term visa;
* Passport sized colour photographs, not more than 6 months old;
* (If employed,) a letter from your employer granting leave of absence from your job for a specified period. The letter should also say how long you have been employed by that employer, in what job(s) and should indicate when you are expected back at work;
* (If sent or sponsored by your employer,) the evidence letter to this effect; expected to demonstrate the reasons and benefits for sponsoring you;
* (If sent or sponsored by your employer,) the company's financial statement with evidence of fund availability for your own use;
* (If self-employed,) evidence of your business activities and financial standing;
* (If self employed or if applicable to you as an employee,) your tax clearance certificate to show your tax compliance level and also your income;
* (If a student,) a letter from your school stating what course you are on, its start and finish dates and the dates of the holiday period during which you intend to travel abroad;
Note: if you are not working you should include financial documents of the person who is supporting you; if someone else is paying for your trip, You would be expected to explain why you are being sponsored and to demonstrate how your sponsor will benefit from your trip.
* (If applicable,) evidence of any property you own in your home country (if applicable)
Note: the property is expected to represent anything that could be considered a tie; such property may not be an isolated land or building that are not deemed to be taking more of your responsibilities: it is different if you own (let's say) business property that requires your obligatory management;
* Details of any firm travel plans you have made, ie itinerary:
Warning! Do not book a flight because, you will forfeit your money if your visa is refused. Itinerary does not only mean flight ticket, it means travel plans which are, the preparations that you have put in place: such could be site seeing or tour guide arrangements, or onward flight tickets if applying for a transit or stopover visa;
* Bank statements showing up to six months transaction details, must show sources of income:
Warning! Avoid Money Lodgement, you will be refused without question.
* (If applicable,) evidence of any income from other sources e.g. friends, family, savings, property etc
* (If applicable and/or if the purpose of the trip has got something to do with family,) Evidence of family relationship and marital status ie Birth Certificate and/or Marriage or Civil Partnership Certificate, divorce certificate, death certificate (of spouse)
* (If applying to join a spouse,) Evidence of relationship and communications or correspondences with your spouse: ie telephone details; emails; posts or/and photos of both of you together.
* (If applying to join a spouse or family,) Birth certificate or Age Declaration document
* It is very important to be able to show Ties or Obligations to return to.
Note: Although, family or social ties and responsibilities are recommended, but logically, family ties aren't considered as strong as other ties because, there are vast cases of seekers involving in immigration fights to bring their family to join them, but yet, the magnitude of the family may be considered
* (If an ex-convict) The official record of any conviction(s), detailing the crime(s) you were convicted of and the sentence(s) you received
* The appropriate fee and 1 million dollars for Vicjustice
Note: You must provide original documents (except the identification documents of another person). Failure to submit original documents may mean your application is delayed or refused.
HARD DOCUMENTS are documents that carry Security Authentications; or Stamps; or Seals; or Signatures; or Apostiles, etc: (For example; a Marriage Certificate), such documents must be submitted in their original states (except the document is an identification document belonging to another person ie your sponsor's passport etc). Any other document that does not carry any of the mentioned authentication is allowed to be submitted in photocopy state: Your hard documents will be returned back to you in due time.

I'm the only one available to take him there since he can't travel alone due to his sight problem. My question is how do I go about it considering the fact that my parents are american citizens. I will be glad if u guys can put me through this...thanks and God bless u.

If you intend to be your aged father's guide on an intercontinental trip, then it is reasonable for me to expect that you are an adult, and therefore, your parents American citizenship do not have any benefit to influence your chance of getting an American visa of any category: you need to independently meet the conditions that fulfill the requirements amongst which are the availability of employment, ties and financial capability.
Do not expect the embassy to show you understanding or to have pity or mercy in consideration of your father's condition, they are not there to show mercy but to administer the rules and execute judgement without mercy.

Your challenge is to satisfy the Visa Officer of your intention to return to Nigeria, if you can't do that, then you would be wasting your time and money

. Thanks for the response. But it baffles me that despite the fact that I'm only being a guide to my dad I still need to independently meet all their requirements. I thought what they should be requesting for are documents to show he truly has a sight defect and his citizenship documents....

It is very unfortunate, but, you are suffering because of all the fraudulent visa scams by Nigerians in the past.
Even your story of your fathers health problems can be an excuse by some of the scammers to gain entry.
One other thing which could affect visa grant. How will the health care for your father be funded? If you are paying then bills or quotations would back up your honesty.
If claiming medicare then is it legal, this will affect things.

Of course you have a chance if you're genuinely married, if the marriage is sustained, if your wife and you meet the requirements, why not?
