The struggle for US Visa

sukkot:
Yessir. it is I

ajalaolanr:
Mine is not about an experience , but for those of you willing to do anything to come to the states,do not try it if you do not have a valid reason to do so! If you want to run, trust me, you will be in hotter soup when you get here! I live here and I know this for a fact! the USA of today is a far cry from the USA of 10-20 yrs ago, a word is enough for the wise!

I was there a week back around 6:30am. We all waited patiently for the first interview and hoped that if his/her visa was granted the goodluck would rub off on the rest of us....for where?

It was a lady and her interview took place in booth 7. She claimed that she was going to attend a seminar sponsored by a company she distributes for here in Nigeria. After the VO found her not eligible for the visa, he was about handing over her documents when the lady said, "Oga, please hold on to it, my interview can't be over". Then VO repeated that "you are ineligible", while he was saying this, the lady keep on explaining how many clients she has, how much she makes... vo repeated himself, Lady also repeated her self. At that point everyone laughed so hard. The lady left a few seconds later.



My own unusual experience.

Same day as above. While waiting in line outside, I discovered that I was feeling some fresh air around my toes, on both feet. When I looked down, the sole of my shoe was coming off from the front. Horror!!! I've not even entered the Consulate yet. Why me? With each step I took, more of the sole was coming off, got to a point I couldn't lift my feet to walk, I dragged them, I was already in the interviewing area at this point.

I kept on praying for this little incidence not to cause any visa denial. It didn't. After it was approved, I majestically walked out with half of the sole of my shoe gone. When people waiting outside saw me, there laughed, and I thought within myself......"dey laugh me, make you no go face your own interview"

Uglykunu:
There's this woman on the day of that wanted to go for visiting, the visa officer was like At this moment, we are sorry we cannot offer you visa.. She replied immediately what's so special in your country? I want to go and spend my money and improve the economic situation of your country.. The visa officer has not returned her passport then and she was like I'll grant your visa just for you to see what's special in my country... For all those wey dey lie say dem dey comot for queue go toilet... There's no queue in the interview room... Make una no come here dey blow lie

EbolaParasite:


If that were the case, we wouldn't have so many denials. There are people with legitimate reasons that get denied so spare me.
If the VO's actually used documents and stuff, so many won't be denied. A lot of times they deny simply based on perception.
Explain this situation, a female friend applied for a visa and got denied without being asked anything except why are you going to the U.S. She said she wanted to go on vacation. She applied again 4 weeks after and got approved with the same answer. No document was checked the first time. The second time the new VO asked to look at her documents. She just returned to Nigeria after her 2week vacation last month. Why do you think the first officer denied her?

Eugenedimgba:
bros,i think you just lied.How the hell did you hear the conversation when you are supposed to be sat,praying to God and waiting for your turn? Pls there's no way you could have possibly heard that conversation if u weren't standing beside her.

LordReed:


Why would you take citizenship of a country that will be scattered by 22nd of November?

bigfrancis21:


One thing many visa applicants don't know is the US embassy already performs inside background checks on visa applicants and suggest approval/denial way before the interview date. For some applicants with suggested approval, the interview process will just be formalities and the grant will be brief and quick with the VO asking you for little or no documents whatsoever, leaving you wondering at the magic that just occurred. The VO has the final say though. For some with already suggested denial, the VO will try their best to give a fair interview, and for such applicants they would have to work extra hard to impress the VO otherwise, and make the VO overturn the suggested denial already hanging over the applicant's profile. The VO is sort of the final judge and the interview itself the final court case where the applicant has to prove himself not 'guilty as charged'. During visa interviews, once your profile comes up there are past records of your previous visa interviews, if any, and/or comments/notes left on your profile suggesting likely outcomes.

When you pray do you actually need to lose your ability to hear plus lemme know when you get to the hall to be interviewed in lagos in case you find a seat in front before your number is displayed on the screen kindly gist us on your deaf and dumb prayer experience...

holamiday:
What nonsense! I pray throughout my life, i never have to beg someone for the chance to enter another country. I love Nigeria to a fault and i'm not freaked about anywhere else. If i really need to travel somewhere else, for school perhaps, i still wouldn't beg anybody...i'd rather forget about that school.

NIGERIA is the best place to be.
