Is that supposed to be an issue..even if he has 100 username..misplaced priority on nairaland

Sparkle1515:
What kind of generalization is this??simply say people can not be trusted..so many bankers have travelled and returned

stevewale:


K1 visa is a legit visa for migration to the States ... You should have invited her yourself and state the your wife would be responsible for the expenses (probably because you aren’t working then) instead of having your cousin or wife inviting her.

I’m a citizen and went through K1 too, making good 6 figures in IT field but they still denied my mum visa so I honestly don’t know what those VOs are looking at.

I’d suggest you do what @seyewest suggested you make a copy of your visa page and green card so she can just display it to the VO on that glass even if he/she won’t collect or request documents from her.

I’m re-inviting my mum again in few weeks time and I will come over just to escort her to the embassy (I know I won’t be let in but maybe that would boost my mum’s moral a little bit haha) photocopying my passport page and wife with kid’s own along with tax returns to give to her o. Haha we die put this time oo lolz.

If it doesn’t work out this time around, then I will resort to filling for her.

Guys do you think if she mentioned that I was in Nigeria 4 times last year to visit her will increase her chances?

Bankers are part of the reason why we're in this mess in the first place... do your research and you will understand what I'm talking about... by the way they hardly give any banker not in Management level visa nowadays.

Your parents stand a better chance than your brother. I would advice your parents apply while your brother can wait.

seyewest:


Let them apply together and you should send them a copy of your letter of admission, school ID Card, graduate list (Something to show you're truly graduating) and they should not spend more than 8 days as trip duration... they will like issue your parent the visa but I'm not sure about your brother... one more thing let your dad talk at the interview.

mynameisnoname:
Thank you, i will do as you have said

Sparkle1515:
Still a hasty generalization..who told you? Where are your facts and figures?do you work at the embassy ?did the embassy tell
You this?are you a VO? I know so many HMos workers,Telecom workers,media workers,private coy,yahoo boys who have travelled and didn’t returned..stop this baseless assumptions

Dejavu31:
Good afternoon Mr Seyewest, what of a lecturers going for an academic conference for three days at Havard medical school

Middy25:

Hey! Not sure if the VO would look at or rely on those documents. It is inconsequential. Anyway, do as the spirit leads you.

seyewest:


I think they will check just for confirmation purpose in his own case because parent going for graduation is normally one of the easiest visa to get.

seyewest:


Abuja visa will be out within 2-3 working days while Lagos is between 3-4 days....
No one can tell if you will get visa or not... go through the thread and assess yourself.

sholsy:


Yes I agree that visa for a parent attending their Wards graduation is one of the easiest. However, adding a sibling to the application is a tricky one.

Hello House, please how long does it take for dropbox application to come out in Abuja?

she laughed and said that's all but don't forget to pick your passport

Me: I laughed and said I won't forget


Everyone in the hall was looking at me like an alien while walking out of the room

Be honest with your application and try not to rehearse any question and answer.. just be plain truthful and put God first

Dolapo26:
Goodevening I went for an interview today but I was denied I have been to the Usa three times prior to the interview. Before the interview I filled in the form I had no relative in us. A day before the interview my agent said I should say my Mum was in us .This was the question as follows
VO Goodmorning
Me :Goodmorning
VO : where are you going to in the Usa
Me: Virginia Beach
VO: do u have any relatives in us
Me: my mum
VO : how did she go
Me: she divorced my dad so she moved on
VO: how long has she been married
Me :2 years plus
VO: was she married before or after
Me : after
VO:are u a student
Me: yes I am
VO: intended date of graduation
Me:June
VO: sorry you are not eligible hands me the blue paper

I don’t know why I was denied.

When next am filling the form should I indicate that I do t still have any relatives there and when I go for interview the next time I reapply should I still stand my ground I have no relative there. I hope it won’t affect me? Cause of my previous situation?? Will the VO be aware my mom is there if I say no I have no relatives??

seyewest:


Unfortunately Bankers can not be trusted.

seyewest:


You still don't get it... U.S is really not mad at Nigerians staying behind in U.S but those that will enter U.S and move across the border to Canada (US and Canada shares info about applicant now) If you do your research very well even though I'm not V.O but I'm privy to a lot of these information and I can tell you categorically that between 2015-17 Nigerian bankers crossed U.S border to Canada then any other profession.
Banker don cast... ask around and look around... how many bankers get B1/B2 nowadays.
