No country in the world refunds visa application fee after interview/biometricts. It is called visa application fee and not visa fee. If you cancel before going for your interview and biometrics, within the stipulated period, you get a refund, otherwise no
So are you trying to tell us that visa fee is free?

They should return some certain amount of the fee charged if visa is not granted.

Wetin you smoke? The United States is the greatest country there is, there ever was and there will ever be. Stop deceiving people and tricking them to stay in Nigeria. It is one of the worst countries there is. A country which has failed in all good things and is leading in almost all miserable things. It’s is a country lead by thieves and failure who richer every day while the smart ones suffer in poverty, penury and learned silence.
Despite my education, I a hopeless failure and had lost hope before I moved to the United States.
Now I am more fufiled than ever. In 5 years, I have gotten married, bought a house, have 2 kids and drive the latest Toyota’s and Fords. I am very satisfied with my life and I can get any Nigerian Food or fun I like here in Atlanta.
No youth should remain in Nigeria. Even buharis daughter and her husband live in Florida and all our politicians children are here pursing their passports.

Nice..

But please what's the advantage of buying a house in the US?
Does it give automatic stay or permit? Just wanna know
You can only buy a house on mortgage if you have a green card or if you are a citizen with a good credit history ..
Though most times if you have cash to pay in full, you will be able to bypass some documentation screening about your status,hence you will be able to buy your house but you will still need to give out your social security number for property tax purposes.

We’re not happy denying Nigerians visa —US embassy
Published


April 15, 2019
Eniola Akinkuotu, Abuja

The United States Embassy in Nigeria says contrary to popular beliefs, its visa officers are not always happy denying the visa applications of Nigerians.

The embassy subsequently asked Nigerians to tune into a live Facebook talk at 2 pm on Wednesday.

A Facebook post read in part, “Contrary to popular opinion, visa officers do not enjoy handing anyone the 214b refusal letter.

“Proof: Visa Officers will be live on Facebook to talk about some of the commonly misunderstood questions on the DS 160 and help you improve your next application.”

However, over 200 Nigerians disagreed in the comment section of the embassy’s Facebook page.

Adaobi Emmanuella Njoku wrote, “Contrary to what you just posted, I think and believe they actually do enjoy it because they act like they know it all and still end up giving visas to people without genuine intentions.

“I can’t wait for Wednesday to come because I have already prepared my questions. They will explain to me how it is possible to deny a person visa three times with three different reasons at different times when the form was filled exactly the same and for the same purpose: for a medical trip to help save one’s child. I can’t wait for Wednesday.”

Menuba Esther Amaka also wrote, “Why is the application fee non-refundable? That’s what is bordering me.”

Another Facebook user, Akufai Valentine Jonah, recalled how he was denied a visa despite obtaining a scholarship in 2013.

He also expressed disapproval with the way the consular officer spoke to him.

Jonah wrote, “I had a terrible experience in 2013. I got a scholarship to attend a conference in Denver but was denied a visa. I was not angry because I was denied a visa. I was angry with the manner of the disrespect from the consular officer.

“Imagine giving one that refusal letter and you are told ‘off you go’ without any tangible explanation, after reading the letter, it states that I don’t have strong ties to my country either through being married, neither do I have a job and back then I used to work with an NGO and it was clearly stated in my application. I have forgotten the third excuse.

“I just laughed and left, I know people who are single then and are still single today that have got US visas. I know people who have no job but have got a US visa, I know people who had zero travel records but were granted US visa. Since that episode, I have never ever applied for a US visa because I don’t have any business there for now.”



The PUNCH had reported last year how the US denies hundreds of Nigerians visas on a daily basis and how the embassy generates N57m from Nigerians.

If American's tell themselves during the great depression that no youth should remain in America you wouldn't have a country to run to five years ago.

But seriously, why is the US embassy having the need to even explain themselves about why they are denying multiple Nigerians US visas when they know that majority of the applicants for their visas have very high immigrant intents in mind?

They already know the situation of the country their embassy is located in and seeing the thousands of applicants applying for their visas everyday to escape from Nigeria because they don't want to deal with Buhari's Next Level promises...lol!

Most of the applicants complaining that they were denied US visa should try other countries too like Canada, UK or even Australia...however they already know that those countries will still not grant them visas too.
