Please read back in this section and you will learn much.
Your application will be judged on your strong ties to PROVE that you will return home.
Then your finances.
The fact that your friend will pay everything from America does not help with your ties to home.

Anyway good luck.

Yes, we do read these threads. No, you don't have to apply from the country of your birth. Yes, tell the truth.

mamateniola1:
Okay then. You should apply from your country of birth....Nigeria and you let the VO know you work in Qatar when asked but read back the pages of this thread, you will get lot of info to help you.

In this America where a mother can take her child to court over $250 unpaid loan, lol. They are lucky to find such friends/family willing to sponsor their trip.

@Ladyguinivere, nefertitiram, seyewest and anybody with similar experience kindly advice.

I am applying for Dropbox for myself and wife. We want to apply as a family. We have filled and submitted the DS 160 For both of us. However we have problem at the appointment schedule page. whenever we try to fill the '"ADD BY NAME"" segment for my wife under my profile the system keeps popping up with Inactive Operative user. My question goes like this?

1. Must my wife open a separate account to schedule appointment or can i add her application to my own for submission so that both are treated together? Is it that family appointment has been cancelled?

2. She has tried registering as a new user to also schedule an appointment but the system keeps saying "'the administrator has been alerted,ensure first and last name tallies with your passport""

3. If online appointment proves difficult can we take our passport and DS 160 confirmation page direct to DHL for submission?

Thanks

Did they denied them before you travel to U.S or after you travel and return? if so did you give her your passport with the visa when she was going for the interview? did you provide her with letter of consent for the two girls?

What will change and work in their advantage now that you are even there in the US? What are the compelling reason to be put forth to convince a VO now, I mean the STRENGTHS? Well, I hope and somehow believe you understand by now that we have to qualify individually for a US visa and not entirely think we can get one back of someone else. What are the strong ties of your wife and children to Nigeria? Can we see an interview transcript of theirs for the the December refused application?

The cheapest flight is N350K average... That's N700K for both of you.
Hotel should be around N250K for 10days
Living expenses and shopping should take N150K
Everything is N1.1M and how much is Naira to dollar officially
N305 X $3500 = N1,067,500.00
As you can see this is not enough for both of you and I'm sure you forgot to include the salary part.. I think the fund you have available for the trip is not enough for both of you to travel.

My suggestion is that you apply alone or increase the amount if you wanna apply with madam for the trip and since it's for vacation you can apply as early as mid april and explain what has changed in your circumstance since the last time you applied which is the changed in the amount of money you have in place and also the 10 days is a lot given the amount you have for the trip maybe reduce it to 5 days.. this is my opinion
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by KaptainAfrika: 3:00pm On Feb 13, 2017
No. There are no IT conferences at that amount.

1. Sorry to say this, your answer to "Why New York?" is utterly wrong. Instead you should have said "We wish to visit (list the tourist sites you wish to visit) then conclude with we have read so much about these places, and I promised my family that we will go visit them one day.
What is "the tourist attractions we are interested are there" ? sorry that was so bad, the VO knows these already, he wants to know if you have done your research.

2. $3,500 is a very low budget for a family vacation. I don't know how many kids you have, but I know that there are two adults already. Go online, check the prices for the airlines, for two adults and the number of kids you have, then add money for accomodation and pocket money. I would dare say $6,000 is the minimum for a family vacation.

3. Please do your research on 1 and 2. Reapply in 2-3 months and you will surely get your visa, I guess the VO was hoping that you guys would say a value higher than $3,500, that's why he asked twice.
