Dear visaofficer, I am a US citizen married to my wife in Nigeria about two years ago. She went for interview and every questions were answered correctly with lots of evidence, but the CO lady just gave her a contact to fill and return, since August 25, 2014, no restaurants response from Lagos embassy. Why do we have to go through this AP. It takes forever to get our case approval by USICS, reason that we are on administrative processing , now after approval, the embassy put us on AP again....I m shock . Please advise me when my wife case will be look into for second interview and issurance of her visa.

Hi, I JUST GRADUATED AND WAITING FOR MY RESULT TO BE OUT. I RECEIVED AN INVITATION LETTER FROM A FRIEND WHO IS A USA CITIZEN AND SHE WANT ME TO COME AND VISIT FOR TWO MONTHS BEFORE MY RESULT AND NYSC BATCH WILL BE OUT. SHE IS JUST MY FRIEND AND SHE STATED IN THE LETTER THAT SHE WILL BE TAKING CARE OF ALL MY COST OF LEAVING IN U.S AND WE HV BEEN FRDS FOR OVER 5YEARS. Can someone please tell me the question i should be expecting during the interview, the document i need to take along with me and do i have any chance of gaining visa cox she's not related to me in any way. I have money in my account , should i use my account or look for sponsor due to the fact that i just graduated they might not be expecting me as a young graduate (27 years old) to have such amount. I have a child from my first love, do i need to let them know about that or take child birth certificate along with me? Please help

Dear visa officer
Hello friends
Pls I need an urgent advice on my coming non immigrants US visa interview.
I am temporary residents in South Africa with valid permit
I applied for tourists visa in 2012 Dec but was refused. During d interview the consular asked me about my intention I told him my cousin invited me for December holiday and immediately he started telling me the stories about my cousin, that he got married in US to get citizenship I was shocked by his attitude but maintain my composure. Later he calm down and ask me 2nd questions about myself. I was glad at least,he asked me about my job, length of my permit but still denied me.
Anyway it 2 yrs + now and I am going on a conference. I am married with 2 children, gat a job, I am travel to Nigeria. What do I expect? What are my chance?
Thanks

Discrepancy in the personal details for derivative applicant never traveled to the US before.


Dear SIR.. Hi, greetings of the day..

My wife's priority date for the F4 immigration petition is about to become current and i would be accompanying her as a secondary applicant. There is a major discrepancy in the date of birth between my previous passport and my current one. My current passport shows my correct DOB as per the birth certificate and my marriage certificate have the mention of the same DOB. Also there is a slight change in my name in relation to my previous passport through govt gazette. Pertinent to mention here that i have unsuccessfully applied for a student visa earlier with my previous passport and would require to mention on the immigration application form about the same.
Additional information
yes, I have all the other ID's that match with my birth certificate..

my previous application was for a student visa. Here it is customary to follow the DOB as per the tenth grade certification and my previous passport had my DOB as per the certificate which had a wrong DOB (14/8/1975) information whereas my DOB as per the original municipal birth certificate has a different DOB (14/12/1982) . At the time of making F1 application it never occurred to me to bring about the changes in the DOB to match my birth certificate since the birth certificate was not so mandatory for F1 visa as it is for an immigrant visa in which case it is one of the mandatory documents. Moreover the change of name since the time of applying for student visa is well documented and is done through a gazette notification with due reference to my previous name. Please advice how i should go about explaining this to the vo...

Re: Likely Questions By Usa Consular During Interview For Tourist Visa And Response by Nobody: 8:54am On Sep 23, 2015
^^^ You were refused because of your lack of travel history.

Try another country and reapply to the US after some time.

3 months. But make sure your circumstance has changed considerably. Because a guy was asked in my presence, "what has changed about you since your last application?" He could not answer...you don't want to know the rest of the story.
