hey I stay in denton

Anyone living in Tulsa, Oklahoma please? I need help urgently

mariamadenle:
I think this is a best place to get help/answer to my question.
I met an American woman last year June here in naija which she later turned to be nice friend, mentor and co, she left naija around July and we never loss contact we talk almost everyday maybe through phone or email (I still have the record of our conversation)..fast forward..August last year she complained back pain to me which I think it kept her out of work for two months before she was diagnosed with cancer in October....and after then will talk and used to promised she will help to travel to US if get better but I received Email this year 5th of Jan. that she died on 3rd (But before she gave up the ghost) she discussed me with her church (May be Pastor) and the representative of that church was the one that sent me the breaking news about her died and she (church rep) also tell me she want me to attend her funeral service.
They asked me to send my passport bio-data page and other necessary info....
my questions:
please I want to know if US Embassy can grant me a visa based on church invitation to attend funeral service of someone that is not my family
2. Aside from that my account balance only define my level of poverty
3. with all these do you think I have any chances of attend the funeral service
4. Though my Reverend father promise to write a supportive letter to embassy but I still think this not enough

please I need you advice Nairalander

Hmm, the power of networking. Well, I think mourning the death of a 'loved' one doesn't necessarily mean you must be at their grave side. So, go with this mentality to the Embassy. If you appear desperate, you might be denied. If you're granted, fine; if not, she still means a lot to you. So nothing spoil.

I think a big part of the visa app process is what the VO feels and thinks, it might not be the real thing. But the best you can do is to make the VO feel and think you're really going there based on the invite.

You should also go with a confirmation that the lady actually requested the church to invite you + a letter from the church, too. Alongside other standard docs.

That would be a visiting visa though, not F1.

Cheers!

My advice would be first look at your finances.
Can you afford to loose the visa application fee?
Can you afford the airfare?

Despite the circumstances you will be judged the same as all applicants.
You must convince the visa officer that you will return after your visit. (Also that you can afford the trip.)

Are you an undertaker? Do not apply, otherwise you will be denied a visa. This is basically because you may not return home after your visit.

please is it possible for me to enter USA to hustle with one million naira without landing in trouble? What kind of visa am I going to apply for? Please I need info

i think you should go to the Non immigrant section. The VOs would be in the bet position to answer this.

What are you going there for?

Bros, someone replied you in the previous page

Fortissimo502:


My goodness

What's so funny about that? Hehe, i'm pretty sure if a VO asks him this particular question, the man would like please come again. And the next thing he will hear is, sorry you do not qualify for this visa blah blah blah.

TWoods:

Hello
Please I need y all advices here. The problem is I graduated from High School In 2012. Started my undergraduate studies in 2013. I voluntarily withdrew from University in 2015 due to family emergency. I have applied to a school in the US and I have been accepted for Fall 2017. Please when asked what have you being doing since high school, is it advisable to bring up my previous undergraduate studies and say I withdrew due to family emergency or I shouldn't even bother to say anything regarding it. Looking forward to your thoughts
Thanks

Same issue ! Shoot me a pm

TWoods:


The Phd isnt tough to apply for depending on 3 factors;

1. GRE score - needs to be very high
2. Your transcript - if you show continuous improvement over the years (i.e. your 2.2 was based solely on poor performance in the first/second years), then you stand a good chance.
3. Well articulated statement of purpose - i.e. your research plans and who you intend to work with and why.

PhD sounds scary sef for now.

I am just preparing for GRE.

I will apply for Masters or PGD in another school.

Will search out the schools.

Thanks

Tourist visa is not really easy to obtain in Nigeria unless you know how to play the game first of all.

It's better the dude tells the VO he's going to America for Easter holiday than funeral. The VOs at the embassy won't believe him even if it's true. What works there is what makes sense. Also invitation letters do not guarantee visas.

An african man won't spend close to one million or over that just to attend a funeral unless the deceased was his relative so to speak.
