Thanks op. I'd add that don't be ashamed to ask for your way around when you are in, you could just be standing on the wrong queue, above all, no need to be desperate. Good luck.

But I would suggest the embassy makes the interview more private that it is. Asking someone some personal questions such as how much they earn seems to me to be non-public.


So on point here. I don't know why this question had to be made public is such manner, it bothers on security too i must say.

I don't really get that number 5

(5. Be confident during the interview and do not sound desperate. America is not heaven. I see some guys who, when asked by that young girl there, who was asking her questions on loudspeaker and rejecting people’s request for visa on loudspeaker, if they have ever travelled outside the country before, nod on the affirmative and start mentioning Kenya, Ghana, bla bla bla. The next thing you would hear from her is “I am sorry you are not qualified for a US visa at this time, details ….” Phew! ogba!)

Is it wrong to mention that you have traveled to Kenya and Ghana?

I think the OP was implying that those people were just telling untruths.

In my opinion bro, it's not really necessary. I believe that girl feels some people just run to such places and come back to claim they have traveled out of the country, since it's not difficult traveling to such places; or some have not really even been to anywhere.

Mehn, interviewees were visibly avoiding her, the rate at which she was denying people visa was just alarming. I even silently prayed not to go to her, it worked for me. She was asking too many questions my dear.
But to be objective, she wasn't doing badly, save for that loudspeaker wey she dey use talk to people, even the rejection.

Point 5 seems to be the major deciding factor. I once told a lady that if she was giving the wrong answers ,she should still be confident about it. Whatever story u are presenting be natural with it and you can't be what you are not .

Just visit their website and feel out the form, depending on the type of visa you are applying for, which is determined by your purpose of travel. If you run into any hitch along the line, then ask me. If I don't have any meaningful thing to contribute, then you may have to meet an expert. I had to speak with the US consulate customer care several times (enough credit). The world is so small, and yet so large, these days.

Travelling history is a bonus. That black american girl is a witch, she doesn't issue visa.

Re: Some Things To Note When Attending US Visa Interview in Abuja by coolladdy: 12:27pm On Mar 24, 2015
most times the Consular is biased as you may not be informed the reason for the rejection all you will hear is that you are not qualified this time. i have applied before for US visa and was denied even when all the documents are okay and i used same documents for Germany and was granted visa. There is no fix rules about it . it sometimes depends on the Consular's mood and perception.
