Single is good, vacation is the best bet, hotel reservation is ok and much better as your contact details in the States, the likely questions for you are the routine ones : Where are you going in the U.S., where do you work, what is your marital status, how long are you staying in the States; how much do you earn etc....
[/quote

In the case of marital status i filled single, so i shouldnt chip in anything about my wedding, was thinking that will be a stong tie for me for them to reason that i am not an intending immigrant,

@spongeisback

Well, to be sincere with you, a job to serve as a tie back home would have worked for you. But however, a related conference on your education would have been a bonus without a job since you're still a fresh graduate in pursuit of more knowledge.

As it is now, June to the present month is a long time to remain without a tangible means of income except your parents are willingn to foot the bills in which case a tie will be needed which you dont have.
Re: Usa Visit Visa by tzetzefly(m): 3:11pm On Oct 30, 2013
@eziafakise,

You can tell the VO that you have a to be spouse. That's all. Dont start with wedding and all....
Re: Usa Visit Visa by spongeisback: 3:12pm On Oct 30, 2013
I work. I've been working for 3 years.

You can go on vacation, conference, training etc. It all depends on your travel history and circumstance. For conference, you need a travel history likewise for vacation...

Pls does my Ghana travel history give me an advantage?
Re: Usa Visit Visa by tzetzefly(m): 3:32pm On Oct 30, 2013
spongeisback: Pls does my Ghana travel history give me an advantage?

It does, no travel history is too little or too much. You have resided outside your country of domicile for about four years, that's no piece of cake.
Re: Usa Visit Visa by spongeisback: 3:34pm On Oct 30, 2013
Pls can we make contact outside NL?

We have known alot of people who got their visas with no travel history, all depends on presentation and a little bit of luck.

@ Tzetzefly and all. Please I would like to know if the United states Embassy accepts scanned letter of invitation and tax clearance. The one sent earlier dissapeared in transit and the invitee has sent a clean scanned 1. Is that acceptable?

As long as the scanned copy is clear enough, it makes alot of sense.

You can enter for your interview without a tie if thats what gives you confidence. Make sure you're neat all round that's important.

You have to be polite to anyone you are faced with. However you answer sir or ma, is your choice.

The identity of your inviter is already on the U.S. Database. Just make sure you know the person in and out as well as his circumstance in the States. A copy of all his records mentioned by you can be taken along too.

You need a three months payslip or bank statement.

Your reply to the VO on your travel plan was not consistent with your intended purpose. Your body language also gave the VO a doubt about your application.

You said at the time, you'd want to visit Malaysia and later stated you were not sure if you'd want to. And the fact that you had a Malaysian visa on your passport and you not being positive as to why you applied for it in the first place, is another problem on its own.

What i dont get is did you fill in your DS-160 form that you will be travelling to Malaysia from the U.S., or were you asked this question by the VO?

However when next you are applying for a visa to any country, you need to have a clear and unambiguous reason as to why you're travelling and what your purpose for travelling entails......
Re: Usa Visit Visa by sowu: 9:13pm On Nov 03, 2013

Apply together as couples, that way the CO gets to observe you both and this allows the two of you to have a better presentation in order to get the visa.

There are lots of reasons why people go on vacation, the U.S. offers different options across the country. You only need to know your reason for vacating.
