Do you think that every student studying abroad can afford to travel? Student visa does not really give you a tie to that country especially when you are studying in Europe or Asia and want to visit US.

chloe7:
I think a student visa should be a tie now, because for example a student from Nigeria who studies in the Uk and wants to visit the us isn't such a bad idea, why does that student have to come all the way from the uk to Naija to apply is what I don't get, I know of some people that it has worked for and they got visa while studying and I know of some that it hasn't worked for, why is it so dicey?

For the same reason why one unmarried man going to commit things with bae gets while another man, married under the law gets denied with wifey
They put you under an invisible microscope and incvisible scale and judge if this guy will return or not after his stay.

Hello House, Ithought this might help someone. I just got denied

VO:Good morning
me: Good morning ma'am (passed my passport)
VO: Where in the United States are you going?
Me: Newyork
VO: Why are you going to Newyork ( Wasn't really paying attention)
Me: Visiting my sister's family moreover my Dad has requested to see me..he is just recovered from an ailment ( this is the truth indicated on IV)
VO: Have you traveled out of Nigeria before
Me: No, I have not had to travel out
VO: Are you married?
Me: Still single
VO: Who is sponsoring you
Me: I am sponsoring myself
VO: How much do you earn
Me: 220k
VO: Do you have any other relative in the US
Me: My mum lives in the US too.
VO: Where in the US?
Me: Newyork
VO: (Types a bit more and hands me the dreaded blue paper) I am sorry you have not met the requirement for the grant of a tourist visa.
Me: With the hard face I have kept all along... just took the papers and moved out of the room..

I do not really want to start guessing what went wrong because she appeared quite sympathetic for turning me down... but that is just my brief observation...Hints on what to do differently if I want to try again during my next vacation is welcome

Not everyone holding student visa is a genuine student. If you are a student surviving on maintenance money do you think that it makes any sense to issue a visa to visit US? Student visa is not a tie to that country because it carries expiring date. And in the case of deportation you will not be deported to the UK but to Nigeria.

gentleiphy:


Dont be sad...denial is not death sentence,anytime you wish you can reapply and that day may be your lucky day with a good visa officer..there was nothing wrong with all you answered ...cos i dont want to hear someone say its because you are not married and because you have people over there...they have given to single with less than your salary...cheer up..after all na your money you wan still go spend.

Dear Chuks, you are not alone in this. The US Consulate is having issues with their computers worldwide. So they are having delays printing visas and all... They issued a statement on this earlier.
So chill, they will let you know when it's ready. Mine is still at the Embassy for a week now, so worry not!

Hello Spykid014 thanks for the information. I will wait patiently... Any new info please update me... I appreciate your help.

jatsay001:
Please someone should help me. I scheduled my VISA INTERVIEW APPOINTMENT with my old DS-160 confirmation number, instead of retrieve, fill the new application and get new number...... Now I just retrieved from old and complete my DS-160. They gave me another DS-160 confirmation number which is different from the one I used to schedule visa appointment..

I tried to edit my profile on appointment page with new DS-160 confirmation number BUT the page was not going.... Please my interview is next week, can I go with the old confirmation page number or new confirmation page number

PLEASE THIS IS URGENT... PLEASE HELP ME

anfanio:


Lack of information, with your parents in the US you don't need a visitor visa, either of them can file for you and by your next vacation you should be ready to go, except if your parents are not in 'status'.

baldman:


Thanks everyone for your kind words... I am not interested in overstaying in the US, I am doing alright here by the grace of God. @ Anfanio. I think you are the one that may be lacking information here, although my parents are in status... its definitely going to take way more than five years if I request that they file for me. I am over 21 and definitely not going to remain single while the waiting last so that I will be given a VISA to the U.S. I will appreciate a reliable reference if you are still convinced you know more than I do. Thanks for your kind words again.

dejdel:
Sorry gentleiphy,luck was not jxt on ur side...I read ur script line by line and I was able to pick out why the crazy vo denied you despite your strong ties,financial and travel histories. Here we go: U got it write from the start not until when it got to married for 6yrs plus with no kid!.He/She believes that,as at that time of your travel histories,things was going on fine between you and your wife,now that you guyz have been married for 6yrs with no child!,problems might have transpired between you and your wife at the moment and here you are trav elling. Strong indication is there for you to press p if u get along with a lady and mistakenly or deliberately impregnate her. These are just my own observations base on your script,I stand to be corrected.We are all here to share views. Goodluck to u on ur nxt application.

fredoricko:


To say your visa application will be approved would be merely stating the obvious. Take your time, reapply, and you'll get it, k?
