MamaTobenna:
biko how much did you use to open the account cos the last time hubby went to BOA, they told him about 1000 to 1500 usd but some people said some banks ask for less.
I cant remember accurately but i just checked my statement online and saw $300 as initial deposit. My safest guess is that it was below $500.

Latolly:
Sending you plenty of hugs and kisses, you do well for me ooo grin kiss
Kisses Ke? You wan make your oga at the top pour hot water for my head? shocked cheesy. Best of luck at your interview.

@ sisiolu Tnks a lot for the message. The first time we were refused was last year December 23rd. Agent told us to tell them we have other means of income if dey ask us. And truly the VO asked and we both answered yes that we have a bakery and block industry according to wat d agent told us.immediately we said that she requested for our statement of acc and we didn't go wit it cuz d agent said there is no need for that.we told her we didn't come wit it and she said sori ur visa has been denied. Second time was February dis year after asking where we are going, where hubby and I is working,how much we both earned monthly and we answer all and her last question was how much we budgeted for the trip we said 1.2million(me, hubby and our 2 kids) she looked at sumtn beside her as if dey paste sumtn on d wall and said sorry she returned our paali back to us. Everythin we said that day was wat d agent asked us to say. 3rd time was Sept 17 agent sent me mail that I have interview on Sept 17th dat was in Aug that a training is coming up about road safety that I should go for d interview.it was a male VO dis time he asked where I was going and my duties @ work I answered all and without asking for any doc he said sorry and that was all. Please I need advise and also how do I clarify myself concerning this road safety issue b4 my next application pleassssse

SORRy, not for fresher like you lol. tongue, it is for people that came to usa 5years or more(2009 backwards to 90s) to have there baby and they didnt go back to there country afterwards. it means they gave birth to their america baby and stayed back. the reform is just for them and it might not continue afterwards

Thanks for clearing jere! Lolz, as long as it won't disturb women trying to get medical visa for childbirth.

Hello, I will like to find out if anyone did a chlamydia and gonorrhea culture tests in the US and how much is it? Or how much does it cost to do it in Nigeria?

I did a pap smear test in US for $160, I think this test covers all the screening including cancers! I hope this helps. I never got a call back for my results, only a call from walgreen to pick up drugs for blood pressure, so I guess I am all cleared!

Seems like d VOs truly have a schedule of income capabilities on their walls. 3 applications within a year is a lot. You need to really chill out before applying again (@ least 3 months). Fill ur form truthfully. It's possible for someone to change jobs so it's okay for you to have a business now and no longer work with FRSC. I think financial capacity was the main issue in ur first 2 interviews: 1.2M is not enough for a family of 4 (ticket, feeding, transportation, shopping, miscellanous, etc).

Please refer to Pherma's burden of proof and include the following amongst others, stmt of acct wt enough balance dt also shows inflows and outflows from ur business, receipts nd documents of ur biz, evidence of properties (if any), letter heads with your business name, etc.

An agent once adviced me to deny being pregnant at my interview, 10k God I was never asked the question.
@Pherma, Tvegas and co. over to you...

This your agent should be arranged on a bench and flogged severally because this is wickedness shocked. Why would you trust the words of someone who probably haven't seen ordinary Cotonou before? You've been toying with misrepresentation which can fetch you a 10 year ban at the minimum. If i were you,i will summon courage at the next interview and personally tell the VO that an agent misled me in previous applications but i have realized my mistakes,i am sorry and that i am presenting the facts as they are with this application. Backed up with prayer the VO will have compassion on you. I guess each time they read your application,they already know you aint truthful but you didnt give them false documents to warrant an arrest rather they want to keep burning your application fee. Go there and say the truth this time without been asked. shocked

if you are going for childbirth. I suggest you apply alone with your hubby. If its for a family vacation then 1.2 is too small to take care of all your bills.

Thanks sis. I went to several labs, they don't do the chlamydia culture. The one I eventually called this morning said it's 35k while the gonorrhea culture is 1500. I Don't want to pay 35k and repeat it again in the US. That was my reason for asking.

Hello everyone, please ur help is needed. Av been refused visa 3 times under section 214(b).twice with my husband and 2 kids and d third time I went alone for d interview. Am 22 weeks gone now and my husband wants me to deliver d baby in the u.s though av not gotten any correspondence leta frm any hosp. Most of d hosp I contacted didn't reply d mail sent. My main concern is that an agent did d 3 applications for us and I have my biz that av been doing for 6 yrs so I have travelling history a lot cuz I do get my goods from outside d country but he went to fill in d formthat I work with frsc and I told him initially I don't like d idea of lying to get visa but he told me not to worry. Please I don't want to lie again that I work with frsc by the time I will fill anoda Ds 160 form please your advise is needed cuz am doing dis on my own I don't want to go through any agent again. Thanks and God bless you all

This test in question must be done in the USA, so my dear don't bother doing it on nigeria, cos u will b asked to repeat, plz check ur doc's correspondence and see d labs u can take along or send a mail asking them to state clearly the lab results u can come along with.
