Evening everyone. I'd like to know the information required for US contact in the DS-160 form? Would the person's SSN be needed? Thanks |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by seyewest(m): 5:25pm On Jul 03, 2017 |
nikkycool:Sure so far you have the requirement needed for that to happen no wahala at all. |

What's with this question? I keep seeing posters writing this, and I am very very sure VO has NEVER asked this. 'What did you do'? Like, what did you do to get arrested or what? fabiyem1983: 3 Likes |

FrontPageLawyer: Thanks I really appreciate your response. Infact, I have not made payment and that was exactly my thoughts to say am applying earlier so I can make payment for early birds discounted. Just to mention; My travel histry are Ireland, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia and Macua... Though I listed only Ireland on ds-160 because it's the only country I have been to within the last five years for studies. Hopefully, if VO ask for my old passports other countries will be seen. I appreciate your time... |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by ZinoIce: 5:36am On Jul 04, 2017 |
LadyGuinivere: Thanks for responding but maybe you didn't get my questions correctly. I appreciate your confirmation that documents are not usually checked so will not even bring them except a letter from my work place in addition to those visa confirmations and receipt listed. My travel history they will see from my passports. I wanted direct advice on my true situation to the following questions if asked as I was wondering if VO would be patient enough to ask for clearing any doubts? It's 5 days conference so why are you staying 16 days? Answer: I will be attending the conference during my long holiday so I hope to spend some more days visiting Orlando fun sights and attend a music concert by marc Anthony after the conference. Are you married? Answer: No or Not yet but I have a beautiful daughter 1 Like |

Good morning all. Am so blessed to be here as I have learned a lot already.my interview is next month and the agent that filled my DS 160 form fill place of arrival California and departure new York . my question is how do I defend this and hope it won't affect my visa been approved. Thank you. |

danielayodele16: Coast to Coast, not bad! But what takes you to both places? |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by LadyGuinivere: 7:03am On Jul 04, 2017 |
danielayodele16:Ah ah uncle Daniel, ask the agent why he filled it that way Na. How can one tell you the reason for another person's action when u can ask him direct? Any thing one tells u here will be a made up story 1 Like |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by LadyGuinivere: 7:16am On Jul 04, 2017 |
ZinoIce:Yes I did. It is better for you to get answers logically and not be fed so u can be prepared to think logically during the interview If a B visa covers vacation and conference as well.. Then what is the crime in staying over a few extra days to sightsee? Imagine if I'm in the same town with Kilimanjaro for a conference, I finish the conference and I don't take a tour to the mountain.... Now that's weird. BUT as stated earlier your purpose of travel remains secondary to ties. The vo must be convinced about your ties. Which brings us to your second question. Yes. You should mention your daughter. However let's look at it logically again. U have a daughter by whom? I assume u are a guy? If you are female does she live with u? If a guy, then where S her mom? As you didn't marry her clearly she can't you down. If your daughter doesn't live with u, same thing. If u have survived without her living with u then u could as well be sending up keep from the US. Have u seen how in less than a minute what you thought was a tie has been shifted to the 'non tie' column? NB: the source of the above is my opinion and conjecture for you to ponder on 4 Likes |

Hello house please, i need some clarity. I applied for the Visa lottery that cancelled in 2012 or so, do i need to point that out also during my interview? I already stated that i was denied in 2013 at my last interview but i didn't include the visa lottery because i felt it didn't count as part of an immigrant visa. cc: seyewest |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by seyewest(m): 2:09pm On Jul 04, 2017 |
nikkycool:The requirement are: What do you do for a living and how much do you earn? Can your 2-3 months salary cover your trip to U.S Marital status travel history job history purpose of travel etc |

Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by seyewest(m): 2:17pm On Jul 04, 2017 |
fpeter:it does not count. don't worry about it alot of people with U.S visa applied for visa lottery. |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by fpeter(f): 2:29pm On Jul 04, 2017 |
seyewest: Thanks. Please one last question, my half brother invited me in 2013 when i was denied so i had to also state it this time around that i have someone in the USA. Now, he is my blood brother from a different mother(American mum) but we are from the same father. My father adopted the American woman's first son before they got married. The adopted son bears my father's name, we have never met and he doesn't relate to me and so i didn't add him as my brother, would that cost me anything or i should explain to the VO before interview? I didn't add him because we don't communicate. cc: seyewest |

fpeter: Just remember the details you filled in your last DS form. It's very important. Make sure that your story is coherent. Be smart and straight to the point. You should always make sure that your establish your point a non immigrant not a potential immigrant. Good luck 1 Like |

Thanks so much for this Thread. My question : Im married with 3 Kids,the eldest 6years old,the other ones 3 years and one year old respectively. I work with a multinational Coy here in Nigeria as an HR Officer,As a family we are planning to visit the US later this year but the cost of going with the whole family might be much on us. Im thinking if it will be possible to travel with my wife and just one of our kids preferably the youngest. Please i want to know what could be the outcome of such interview? thanks! |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by ABcollege(m): 4:36pm On Jul 04, 2017 |
Thanks to guys on this trend and the senior trend on Nairaland. I had my interview yesterday. It was a success. I was so nervous because it was my first time and it was for an Energy conference. I kept praying in my mind not to be interviewed by the VO on the number 6 but I still got the guy anyways. I believe God wanted to prove a point. VO: You're going to Texas? ME: Yes. VO: What for? ME: For an Energy conference organized by the Society of Petroleum Engineers. VO: What do you do? ME: I'm an Engineer for my firm VO: What do you do for them? ME: I'm a Research and Development Engineer. VO: What do you develop? ME: I design Inverters for the firm VO: What does Inverter do? ME: I explained (Telling him that our company is an off grid solar energy service company) VO: What connects your energy company with Petroleum? ME: I start to explain to him that petroleum is all about energy, that topics related to solar energy will be discussed in the conference. VO: Explained and try and convince me the connection between this conference and your career? ME: I started to tell him about the event contents. I told him that the conference has 8short courses for professionals and that I will be participating in one of the short course - I named the course. That the conference has 5panel section which three of the sections concerns our company and what we are doing currently. I was just talking trying to tell him that we import the products of some of the companies that will be exhibiting on the event... He then said - Sir, your Visa have be approved. Use this paper and pick it up at your ordered location. I said Thank you and I left. I was so excited. I really am still excited, I have not been able to take a deep sleep since yesterday. He didn't even ask about my accommodation and about any other document other than my passport. The real miracle was that I was one of the few if not the first person the guy approved yesterday. Thanks to Baba God. Thanks to all of you guys. Please, know that, with the right information and by filing your DS form properly, you don't have to be afraid when.you go for the visa interview. Just go straight to the point. Some will fill some thing in the DS and then say another thing when asked about what they do. Always remember that Oyibo no get time for your stories especially when it's not specific. When reserving your hotel, please, go for the very cheap one the VO, understand that not all of us have a lot of money. In all, pray to God for assistance. Praise him first for giving you the sense to even reach the level of knowing what to do and the money to apply for the visa first then, he will make a way for you, like he did mine. This post is very long but I just have to pour out my heart. P.S. I have not travelled out of Nigeria before. 27 Likes 1 Share |

Propertyeighty: It can be a success. You should book the interview together as a family. You, your wife and the kid. Pick a location that the kid likes very much - Disneyland - and make a reservation to attend. Let your reasons be child like and intimate. Believe God. You never really know outcomes until you try. Good luck. 6 Likes 1 Share |
