General/travel (F1 Visa Denied) by Kenhal: 3:37pm On Dec 08, 2022
Hello everyone,

I had my interview today at US Lagos embassy and my visa was denied instantly without asking questions.

The transcript went like this:
VO: (immediately she saw my I-20) who’s sponsoring you?
Me: My uncle, he’s the CEO of …. They manufacture window blinds and aluminum windows for government and non government entities
VO: what do you do?
Me: I work as a business development executive with so so company.
VO: how much do you earn?
Me: I earn so so amount

VO: I’m sorry we can’t issue your visa

I was like dumbfounded because she didn’t ask about school and all that.

What did I do wrong?

Before the interview started, the person I did my finger print was already like “my passport photo is more than 6 months, bring a new passport when next you come” like she already knew I was going to be denied. Mind you, I took the passport photograph in April and I filled ds-160 in August/September

I also attached my I-20 to this comment, please view it and revert back what could go wrong.

I’m also trying to get in contact with Lagosismyhome. If you see this, kindly drop a contact I can reach you on.

Thank you as I will be waiting for everyone response

According to this statement, your uncle will give you $68,000 each year. Is that correct?

Sorry about what happened dear! And I salute your courage !!!

I think (I am not certain) that as a student going for masters and also working (possibly reached a mature age) the supposed amount should be in your account.

I’m just 27, if i tell them I’m sponsoring myself, they would want to know how I got the funds. And someone also mentioned that the issue is from my I-20 which I don’t really understand

She didn’t ask for documents, she just said sorry we can’t issue you.

Do I also need to add to my personal funds because I’m working ?
