Conference Visa Denied At The U.S Consulate Lagos by Nobody: 2:56am On Sep 29, 2017
My big brother is married with a child and his wife is expecting a second child. He resides in the church compound and he is a priest in an Anglican church. The church secured a conference for him and the venerable to attend in the U.S. He went for his visa interview on September 27th, 2017 for that conference that the church is sponsoring him and the venerable to attend in the US, he was denied visa because the interviewer thinks that he wouldn't come back after the conference. He had all the necessary documentation that is required for the interview, including hotel reservation, travel date, and returned date. My question is how could the interviewer determine that he would not come back when it is the church that is sending him to the conference so that he will go there and participate, learn some stuff that he will come back to the church and train the other young priests.

He and the venerable has a different interview date. The conference was secured for both of them for the second week in November 2017.

The venerable has his interview coming up on the 5th of October what are the chances that he will be granted a visa? Also the venerable went for a visa interview last year that the church sponsored too and he was denied visa too, I don't know the reason why they didn't grant him visa then, now he is going again for conference visa for the second time.

What can my big brother do to obtain a visa for that conference being that the conference was already paid for?

Please, any help will be gladly appreciated.

Well, you know everything has changed with this present administration.
Anybody coming into U.S must provide physical address. ( incase the person overstay. ICE gonna pick the person).
The slogan now is dont come to america to marry.
The mystery now is that they give 2 years at the consular and at poe, you can get 2 weeks or a month.

Booking hotel reservation is a BIG error. Simply because when he enter he can divert his journey.
Any body coming to America now must demostrate what Trump called prove your connection to U.S.
