Thanks bro, but since I already submitted the DS-160 form, how do I then go about the uploading? Thanks in anticipation, House
You have to fill another form and upload the picture and update the new ds160 number in your appointment profile page.

Vo How do you go about your job there?
Me I told him what we basically check for in my lab and how we go about it, this wasn't the basic write up in the DS 160 so i further emphasized the job duties outlined on the form.
Vo How do you go about calibration (I talked about conducting planned calibration in my duties)

1. No travel history, yes I was advised to get WA visas but am not a fan
2. Single with no kids, I chose not to get a "companion"
3. I lost a passport 2013, A friend told me not to declare that, but I refused.
My whole epistle, DON'T LIE NO MATTER HOW MINUTE.
PRAY, PRAY N PRAY.

Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by Coefficient(m): 9:32pm On Sep 06, 2017
Once, I went for the US visa interview after a failed attempt two years prior. My first application was fraught with bogus claims and huge misrepresentations.

I didn't even earn anything near what I claimed, wasn't married as indicated. All of these were at the instance of an agent hired by my Dad and coupled with his strong desire to see me cross the divide.

I was flatly denied, much to my own delight cos I wasn't quite comfortable with the huge lies.

In my second application, I decided to come clean because I wanted to clear the misrepresentation. I could be called to travel for work anytime and if I was refused based on prior application, it would be a huge dent on my integrity.

Off I went to embassy with the utmost aim of clearing myself and not necessarily to secure the visa. Here's my transcript:

VO: Good Morning. Pass me your passport. Where are you going to?
Me: I'm going to California (Big gaffe! I was going to Ohio but was fixated on my previous application where California was the intended destination)
VO: Why are you going to California?
Me: I'm going to attend my cousin's wedding and also spend my annual leave, a month long. I haven't gone on leave in the last two years and I think I should reward myself for working that long. (At this point, I realized my error and seized the opportunity to correct my destination and talk extensively about my first application. I told him about all the misrepresentations, affirmed my single status, dispelled the salary claims and every other wrong information therein. The VO nodded his head and started smiling at this point)
VO: Next, he asked: where do you work?
Me: I work with xxxxx, a marketing communications company at the level of Deputy Manager
VO: How long have you been working?
Me: 4 years in my current profession
VO: How long have you been working with your current company?
Me: 2 years now
VO: You've worked elsewhere before?
Me: Yeah, started my career with xxxx but I also worked in xxxx, my father's company which was responsible for my initial application. (Another opportunity to further discuss the first denial. Told him about the company and why I left)
VO: Tell me about your job (Another opportunity to talk about my enjoyable job. At this point, it had become a friendly chat. He was quite intrigued by my responses. It further strengthened my confidence and I was coasting. He even leaned forward and we maintained eye contact all through. I told him about past project, current and upcoming ones)
VO: Nice. So you're going to Ohio for your cousin's wedding?
Me: Yeah and to spend my leave too (We we're both chuckling here)
VO: Are you married or engaged? He asked again)
Me: No, I'm not married or even engaged! I'm very single. (He laughed)
VO: Ok, I believe you, I believe you. I'll approve your visa now. This paper explains how to pick your visa in the next three days.
Me: Thank you

I walked out without looking back, emotionless. To be honest, I wasn't carried away. I wasn't even listening to the security guy who was hailing me. I just rushed out. I had a meeting to attend.

I insisted on coming clean on all misrepresentations despite people telling me to maintain a lie. For me, when you tell a lie, you need a bigger lie to cover it up. Since another opportunity has presented itself to come clean, why don't I take it?

The outcome will be dependent on the VO. To be honest, I wasn't really bothered if I was gonna get the visa or not. I wasn't fidgety or nervous. I just wanted to get it over with and clear my mind and for future applications.

Quite honestly, I did say a simple prayer that morning on my way. I said God should not let me fail where others have succeeded. I said this because I believe in God and my colleague had secured his even though he was my subordinate and earned way below what I earned.

I'm sharing this here because I owe it a duty to this forum and this section in particular. I have been here a long time and I read this section and US visa threads extensively for that application. The outcome? A success! I had never been outside Nigeria before when I secured this visa.

Let me just add this, visa applications and interviews are no big deals. Not at all! Fill your form yourself; you're in control. Be articulate in answering the questions. State all facts clearly and be honest. Stick to same story at your interview.

My POE is another experience all together. I made it to secondary inspection at JFK...lol grin

wow wow Thank you for the comprehensive transcript and this is an avenue to dispel rumor that misinterpretation can not be overturned if you confess your sin also there's still chances for applicant to come clean although coming clean does not guarantee visa but it will clean your slate.
Waiting eagerly for the POE experience.

Your application confirmation page
Your visa fee receipt
Your appointment schedule

Don't bother taking bank documents or any other 'supporting documents.' No VO will request to see them.

But if you think it will help your confidence, feel free to pack a bag full of documents. You're welcome grin

That's your likely best option as birthing seems to be your real reason/purpose of travel. Either ways, the protrusion is a major hurdle to beat I swear. Holidaying purpose will hardly get that visa at this time in the Nigeria-US Embassy relationship history!

Yes you should...

I can assure you that you'll be denied again and you'll be back asking of how to correct "mistakes" on your application.

This is really unfortunate! How do you sleep well with your negativitism. Some positive guidance from you will do more to discourage people from using agents.

I was given a blue paper at the Embassy today, I just still can't figure why. I was interviewed by a young black chick... My transcript thus:

VO: good morning
ME: good morning

VO: what's your mission in usa
ME: going there for a conference........
Scheduled to make a Paper Presentation n represent my company.

VO: What paper are you speaking on
ME: told her

VO: she said she doesn't what that is about
ME: I started explaining

VO: she asked for the invitation letter
ME: she read it keenly n started typing

VO: Are u married
ME: No... she continued typing
She inserted d blue paper in my passport n said it will explain further my denial.

The facts were stated in my ds 160 n my mission is real, sponsored by my company.
My Questions are should I reapply? If yes, can I get an appointment date before October 18th?

That's your likely best option as birthing seems to be your real reason/purpose of travel. Either ways, the protrusion is a major hurdle to beat I swear. Holidaying purpose will hardly get that visa at this time in the Nigeria-US Embassy relationship history!
thanks so much, though we don't have resources for birthing in US but I will consider it.God bless u.

From your denial, what I can deduce is that the problem might be coming from the conference in question. By the way what is the name of this conference, and who are those organising and attending this conference? Is it a publicized conferenced in the area that if I key it into the system on google search, the conference should pop up in the first page of google search, cos anything short of that, sometimes the vo might think the conference is not important. If all this things are OK, you can apply again as soon as possible. Best of luck next time.

Sorry dear about the waste of money.
Sorry also because I won't wax all positive.
I think the issue is "ties"
You aren't married. I suppose no travel history. Purpose of trip is always secondary to ties. Try going for a conference in Tanzania or another country first. Hugs and Kizzez
