LadyGuinivere:

1. The US and UK are different countries. A refusal to one country Does not mean automatic refusal to other
However, you muust convince the VO that you will return to nigeria if you are Granted visa. Sometimes , they look at previous travel history as a guide.
2. Under no circumstance however should u lie about the Refusals

Derende:
You are good to go. Your passport won't show on the confirmation page. It can only show if you want to print your completed ds 160 form in case you want to have it for future reference purpose.Best of luck in your upcoming interview.

MrMash:
Good evening house I work with a new generation bank and I have an annual income of 4.2m.

I would like to go for holiday in the US early next year.

I don't know anyone there and I will be staying in an hotel for the 4 weeks I will be there.

I have two questions.

1.Can my payslip be substituted for my statement of account (As my statement shows too much info about my spending pattern).

2. I am presently single and my office should provide me with an introduction letter. Is my job enough tie?

KaptainAfrika:
A little research on this forum, will give you the answers you seek. All your questions have been answered.

Please Lady G...I got an invitation to attend a family wedding in the US. Please can you gimme the guidelines to applying for US visa

Hi Everyone.

I had been following and read through the thread.

Please what do you guys think about this.

I was to attend a leadership training for 3 weeks from Oct 1st to 25th, i went though the qualifying test through out July and August and got invitation early September. By the time i paid and book appointment i got 18th October for Interview which is the middle of the Leadership training already.

If i should present that to the VO, my chances could be NO, though another Leadership conference had been slated for March/April 2018 but i am thinking of changing my application for vacation and visiting in December, so that by March i do not need to go queue for visa but just fly for my Training having received 2 years multiple visa.

Please what do you think about this? Is this thought right?

Oh, just recollected i called Lagos Embassy to see if i can change my appointment date and told the Customer service my reason, which i believe she would have noted in their system. i f i go for vacation and visiting hope it won't go against me?

I am Married with 3 kids
I am head of Operation for an IT company and collect 218k after taxation
I'd only travel to Ghana 5 years ago in 2012 for vacation.
Intend vacation to New York and road travel to visit my in-law in Philadelphia.

Please kindly advice!

LadyG, Seye, Sabastian, KaptainAfrica and others.

Expecting your reply.

Thanks

mcafeez:
Hello bosses in the house.. I have being a silent reader for long time now.. I would like to ask some questions for a friend.. He studied his degree abroad from 2010 - 2014 which he visits Nigeria at least once in every Nov or Dec each year. He came home immediately after graduation �and served(Nysc) then start an IT consulting and training company in 2015.. during his studies he never overstayed in **bleep** country for any stupid reason and he had visited Singapore for vacation... He got South Africa visits visa 3 times between 2015-2016 but he couldn't visit SA due to his commitment to his business. He is single, he has a house and a car.. Please Gurus, here is my question, can the three South African visas not used arise a concern from the VO's view? And does his Business & travel history serve as enough ties to Nigeria... His planning to visit Chicago on vacation by December

Sebastine1606:

It's good you know that d dates on Oct is not too favourable, so you have taken the right steps to look forward to 2018,yet,i know B1/B2 should be sufficient for your intention, but using a vacation intention as against the prospective leadership training in March/April,might count against you at the POE, unless you visit the US in Dec for your vacation, then, Yes, you may as well use it in March.... .just explain to the CBP officer at the POE, you would have already earned trust in your Dec trip

KaptainAfrika:
You are good to go. This is a logical explanation, but practise till you are able to explain it as fast as possible. You missed the 2017 training, you would like to now go for the vacation first, then go for the 2018 training. Even if you are not given for the vacation, you can come back and apply for the training, and you will still be consistent. IMHO.
