How Do I Go About Getting To The United State Of America As A Poor Citizen

Play visa lottery, then next thing go follow am.

@ Nanana: You'll probably have to find a sub-sponsor to make things easier.

@ Simply_me: You're so funny! Again, you remind me of Militia on here, can be annoying to most folk, but very loveable too! 

Well sport is a good way out

If you play basketball and good in it depending on your age I can give you reference to a coach who can help you but you need provide video tape of you playing .

Also America football , hockey and many american sports if you are good you can get scholarship

Athletes are cool too

Scholarship it to america and don't forget to play Visa lottery every year because you loss nothin

Be Nice PTH, That's My Man  of 2 years you're talking about,  Whom I Love very much we are serious about trying to find anyone who may be able to help us in the right direction sooo we can be together,  Not into rude remarks, What Happened to American Hospitality, Thank You, **HUGS**

I'D say PTH was dead right.

@ Poster: Have you considered getting your lady to Nigeria? You could get married there, and when she returns to the States, it MAY be easier for you to follow later, as her husband.

In the meantime, you BOTH need to raise money, get some decent savings behind you. Though you may be married, the US authorities are not daft; there'll certainly be raised eyebrows. They'll want to know how you 2 met, how your relationship has been conducted in the last 2 years, what Nanana intends to do (for work) once he enters the US.

So, a lot of homework to do. Sunshine8, you're in a much better position to do most of the groundwork, if your man's that skint, sponsorship IS a must, I can't see the authorities letting him in, if the think he's going to be an economic liability, and I think you know that too.

One thing you haven't mentioned Sunshine8, what do you do for a living? Are you a student, a worker or both? What does Nanana do, what is he QUALIFIED to do? Are you really 42? How old is Nanana?

Sorry to ask all these questions, but these are the sort you'll be asked, so you'll need to find satisfactory answers, else it's a definite no-no. Good luck!

No easier route to abroad.

Apply for work permit at the american embassy.
That's the only legitimate way to get your working document.

so funny, anyway play visa lottery and sure you pay your tithe and see what god wil do.

maybe through adoption. i heard nigerian take that route too. look for someone to adopt you. when u get there marry your woman 

Siena i'm trying to reach you through yahoo, can you talk???

Go to the United States of America to do what?

Edit: Sorry, I missed your subsequent post. In any case, getting to the US is no guarantee of living a fulfilled life. Best of luck.

lets get one thing straight: in america if you have NO connections YOU arent goin any damn where either, its not just nigeria.try a lottery, my cousins came here by the lottery visa (idk what u people call it) i know its hard to get one but try until you get one!and be prepared to work and i mean  a lot ---you know why? b/c thats alllll you do in this country, just b/c u come here doesnt mean u'll find work, if u don't have any education your fu(k'D, but u could do jobs like CNA, which most african people do when they come here, no offense to anyone!
LMAO @PTH's comment(pack shit)!!!
