B1/B2 Visa fee is now 57,600. The exchange rate actually caused a reduction and not an increase.

beezyblaze:
Hello fam...
The news about increment of visa fee is false....
The truth is... It actually reduced...due to the reduction of the embassy's exchange rate.

Here's the new price

hi guys, I was denied visa yesterday march 26. in fact there were too many denials but I learnt some things. don't waste your time gathering documents for B1/B2 its not needed. then don't even have such time.

meanwhile I wish to travel to Dubai and south Africa, who will give me the link to the threads here on nairaland.

I have a virgin passport, and not married, I am sure that was the problem. meanwhile if you need more explanation and assistance from my experience mail me at nicholaskenechukwu@gmail.com

Aunty, the review is done weekly and has been there for ages...! If they review it to #110, how much will the consular exchange rate be? Standing @ #400 to $1 (hope you read that part?) makes it #64k for now... we should hope for downward review and stop broadcasting this unfounded rumour abeg!

You are the one not reading/understanding.

honeyoluwatoyin:
sorry but I just have to quote your response ... its bullshit....why would she be saying value of her business when she wasn't asked.... I'm sorry but I just have to say this .. over sabi too much on this nairaland and I can bet my life some of you guys commenting can still go back there and be denied ... as for you applicant I can only advice you try again another time .... so many times your good intentions, ties back home and confidence doesn't grant you the visa . Everything is at the discretion of the consulate ... just be hopeful and pray to meet the right person ...

I posted stuffs here arguing the visa fee some days ago and some people were almost biting me here... that's about 7k reduction!!!

BabaRamota1980:
Good evening again my prople. I followed a link that bridged me across to the true VO thread. I read posts there at random. I returned here and read posts here at random. I then went to a site called ustraveldocs.com to see the steps. I was shocked when I got to the visa fees, couldn't believe my eyes at what I saw. A foreign entity that provide consular service in my country uses its own independent exchange rate outside the official bank rates. This is absurd! Will the US allow Nigerian Embassy in their country use an arbitrary conversion rate outside the limits set by their central bank? Jeezus!

The thing don vex me well well. I no wan apply again sef. I don tell my friend to wait after divorce finalize next month to use the money she budget for my travels and come to Nigeria. If the mountain won't come to Muhammed, Muhammed will go to the mountain.

Meanwhile, I thank you all very much for opening my eyes to what i didnt know before. I learnt lesson here. I cant beleieve that we dont even protest the insult, instead we are lining up and eager to pay more sef just so we can speak to the vo and submit our fate to him to decide. I wonder if they post a report showing rates of approval.

Does anyone know, for every 100 applicant how many are approved? Please dont give me some bullshyyte about "ties" when you respond to this question.

God Bless you all!

Hey LadyG you wasted my time making me think you are a vo. I even thought you didnt work on weekend
You be yeye person. Are you single?

Esooros:

Saw an answer to the bolded queston?

In FY2017, a total of 332,003 US immigrant visas were refused; 218,470 of refusals (not necessarily the same ones - some might have been refusals from the prior years) were overcome in some way, usually by completing or updating the original application, and the visas were issued.

I would go a step further and say that asking others to "pray" to meet the right person is also bull. If everything is at the discretion of the consulate, why do you then need to pray? The only reason we have such a difficult time at the US embassy is that we cannot be trusted to tell the truth. Japanese citizens do not need to "pray" to meet the right person at a US consulate. They fly visa free.

Our problem isn't prayer or a lack of it, but a lack of character.
