omonla10: do you mean it's not possible to book thesame appointment times since we are going with same invitation. And under same body. Cos d pastor can accommodate 2 pastoral staffs in his invitation/confirmation letter

opsy4real1: yea you can book same appointment date and appear together before d consular but you are going to be individually interviewed...and ur responses to interviewer questions determine if u'd be granted or not.

omonla10: thanks bro. I guess I have nothing to be afraid of the cos my documents are 100% genuine. And I have a wife and 2 kids.

Stevenjel: Good evening people, please I would be attending an education conference in March 2014. I am a teacher working with Lagos state Government and at the same time working with other organisation as part time staff. I also have a nursery and primary school. Not married!

Please what are the necessary documents needed to be presented at the embassy?

When is the best time to fix for the interview?

Do I have a space to fill all the details of my job in the form, such as Lagos State Government Staff, facilitator at a private organisation and a proprietor of a small nursery and primary school.

NOTE... I have an expired south African visa which I did not use on my passport. Hope this will not limit my chance.

Thank you.

VCTROKOYE: Hi. I am going for a visit in USA in December. My brother intends to invite me. I have been to UK twice and presently studying in Canada. I have paid my tuition fee in full. I understand that people are denied regardless of where they apply from. I was once denied USA visa on education ground in 2002. But I am here on the same ground. My Uk visa is valid till June of next year. My brother in USA is twin brother and as well as a USA citizen thru visa lottery. He has a highly paid job. But the fact is that I have no job at the moment as I am a student. I am single. What documents should I request from my brother? Will my admission letter, study permit, transcription, tuition fee receipt plus pictures with my brother be enough to convince the office I will return. I have pension scheme money of about N200,000 in naija, and about N20k with GTB and few stocks that will worth about N10k in naija. How do I convince this guy. USA is just about 3 hours from where I live in Toronto but I can't enter. Please help me urgently because my interview date is close.
Again, my twin applied for my green card. i know its a bad sign. Two of my sisters are US citizens. My mum is presently a green card holder and she is there at the moment. How do I convince this guys?

There's no need for you to sweat over nothing. 11years ago is a long time for your circumstance to change. You were refused visa to the U.S., but you choose Canada for the same reason i.e. studies (this is a plus for you).

Your number of years in attendance at the university will have to count toward the visa issuance, at least 2 & half years is sufficient.

Your negative point:

Your brother has applied for a LPR on your behalf, your sister and mum are already on LPR in the States, your series of attempt to enter the U.S. on a visa is already in the Dept of State's database (a hard time convincing any VO ).

Concerntrate on your studies for now, get very good grades and partake in volunteer activities in Toronto and environs with reference letter / certificate as proof. Later you can use this as a strong tie and commitment to Canada after which you now apply at the Consulate General of the United States, Toronto.

Cheers......

VCTROKOYE:


Thanks for your advice. I have already applied for the visa before I posted my question. I have my appointment date. Ya, I was thinking that LPR which has been applied for me could be a disadvantage. A friend who was in my situation was just given. The only question he was asked is why he was in a haste to travel and he said he was missing his people. I know different officers could view it in different ways.
Apart from my mother, the rest are citizens and have good jobs.
So many years of not seeing my people is not easy especially when you are about 3 hours away from the country.
At the moment, I have my education, my money in naija as my ties.
I have never stayed in any country illegally. In short apart from Canada, the maximum I have ever stayed in UK is 7 days.

fozy: I am school in North Cyprus i am want to travel to usa which visa is best for me and how do i go about it.

tzetzefly:

You can apply at anytime, but you cannot travel before your conference date.

The invitation is for you alone and a conference it says not a vacation. So no, you cant take them with you.

Austyn316:

Thank you so much Suxes, I will let the house know our experience after our interview on December 9, 2013. It's about three week's to go.

omniaoil: Please house i am applying for american visit visa soon and here is my area of confusion: i applied earlier this year march (i was doing music then, and was suppose to go for a show), but was denied, thereafter, i have been working at my family's company (owned by my mum) and my salary is good (700k monthly), i had to go back and work for my family because they were against d music thingy. my point is my cousin is inviting me this time, and in my form i will indicate a change of occupation, will this affect my chances in any way?

worry 359:
Do you have a JOB with contract and wages paid into the bank with a pay document and taxes?
Or does Mommy just pay you some money?
You MUST PROVE that you will return!
Good job with paperwork, Property, Wife & Kids are the type of things they are looking for.
Musician looking to hussle is a big red flag!
What does Cousin do? Has he got job, Green card, House or accomodation?
Your story is weak at the moment.

omniaoil:

Yeah, its a job with contract, with payslips and bank statements to back up the salaries.
Yeah, i have a landed property in ajah. i am single though
my cousin is a HR Manager at a social welfare organisation. He has his green card.
like i said, i have since returned to the family's firm and will probably take over from mum as the first son cos she is planning on retiring soon..
since my occupation as changed, i want to know if my present status gives me a good chance

Well unless something goes wrong you look good to go.
Just be honest when answering questions and don't mention musician.
Find out about places to visit where you are going and learn some facts so if asked by V.O. you can answer with confidence.
Google is your friend here.

tony9089: an agent helped me get a b1b2 visa....i wanted to attend an interview but couldnt go becuase of the agents threats...he asked for 2million naira for the visa which i think is absurd and stupid...he took my details and gave it to cbp ice and immigration in the usa that am coming to hustle and live illegally which is ridiculously even funny...anyway i applied for a b1 and was given a b1b2...i couldnt attend the conference for which reason i got the visa...can i use it to travel this Christmas without problems....are the agents emails to immigration going to be taken seriously.

Olamilec: Hello House,

I want to visit USA with IT and Cyber Security Conference, what are the documents I will required to provide and is there possibility of me getting the visa because of my low income salary?
Any advice is welcome. Thanks
