1. Misrepresentation
2. Unprofessional workers
3. Unpatriotic Citizens
4. Flawed Systems
5. Covetiousness
6. Unfound lust for money
7. Poor International politics
8. Bad Governance
Are the major reasons Nigerians are denied visa.

Am I the only person that is not crazy about the Japa movement?

It just doesn't move me. I hope the security situation doesn't get worse though. That's the only reason I might consider it.

I thought the same way for years until i found myself presently residing in Toronto...

America is full. Attention should be on countries that don't speak English like South Korea, Portugal and Japan. They need people, but we focus on those that speak English.
Japan and South Korea certainly do not need people(immigrants) don't know about Portugal but it is definitely not a rich country, their own citizens are migrating to Portuguese speaking African countries.

which one is scare those who wants to travel?if its easy why not just enter plane and go without visa.how are we sure what you just said is the truth
There is nothing to prove to you oga. Rest.
People get visa on a daily basis and people get rejections too.
I said my own blood sis got something you are saying another thing. Will I tell you what I don't know?
She is there for her Phd and at the same time a Teaching Assistant in the school. It is a fully funded thing.
Get a PhD fully funded scholarship (Research Assistant or Teaching Assistant), prapere your transcript well, be bold and and pray, you will be fine.
I know what I'm saying oga.
Same thing with the 2 others that got it.

the American embassy staff and systems are not daft.
All they needed to do was carefully scrutinize the documents and be sure it is real.

Maybe people could get away with things like that nowadays, but not any more especially with technology and all that

Scrutinize what was scripted from the source.

Take for example, People pay for bank statement with huge balances, that can be verified from anywhere and will still pass. How does the embassy verify when the bank itself has confirmed balances.

Fraud is moving at same pace with technology, and in a country like Nigeria, it’s very easy!

Don’t know how many peeps have made it to Canada with fake degrees, verified by WES?


The system is very porous and there is nothing the embassy can do. They themselves are confused. I believe they do more of psychological judgement.

that is my thoughts too.
Why continue to collect visa application fee from people.
Now the rejected people will still reapply.
It is terrible

Well, that's the idea... Demand and Supply!

Keep rejecting many, and keep making serious money for the American government due to the desperation of Nigerians to flee their nation.

The game is what it is...

That's also why America and Europe never want good leadership in African nations.

Imagine a visionary and moral leader pushing for the fast development of this nation... Just imagine it.

Visa applications, student applications, Japa generally will decrease massively!

IELTS will be hit terribly!

Those nations will lose their cash cow, not to mention the human resources they are leeching off Africa.

90% of those applying are not wise.....Here's the reason. Nigeria still has a better reputation than Mexico, Columbia and others but those people still get visa approval. Nigeria's problem is mainly volume, in terms of visa application, the U.S makes the most money from Nigeria than any other country even China and India. The U.S allocates a certain number of visas yearly, this number is strategically managed. Now let's talk about the people that are automatically placed at the highest possibility of rejection:

1. Men younger than 30, with no travel experience
2. Women with family members in the USA and no history of long career in Nigeria
3. Men over 40 with no family, no travel experience
4. Those that have been denied more than 3 times with no positive change in their situation

How to boost your chance if you're financially buoyant?

1. Disvirgin your passport, travel to countries where visas are easy, build a history of traveling and be consistent.
2. It is better to be married with kids than to be single, single people are at the biggest risk of rejection.
3. If you work for a company and have tenured history, have them sponsor your trip. Company sponsored conferences and summits are among the highest approval categories.

How to boost your chance if you're just managing?

21st if August, I was at the American embassy for a visa appointment.

From the period spanning 3 hours I was there, nobody left the interview room with a smile or laughter. Almost every one there was rejected.

The funniest thing about the rejection was the verdict on the light blue paper given to the intending travellers which read" you have not demonstrated that you have enough ties to bring you back to Nigeria "

In a layman's terms, it means we are suspecting that you want to japa into the US.

The most painful aspect was a lot of undergraduates that were turned down. A guy that had a $60,000 worth of scholarship was bounced too.

I saw someone who was just going on a study leave from a whole Deloitte where he works in presently in Nigeria being bounced too.
Most of the interviewers didn't even check out relevant documents of the applicants, but just drew their conclusion based on face value.

I was discussing with people and they said inasmuch as the reason for that verdict was baseless and stupid, we Nigerians are viewed as the worst of the worst world citizens to allow access into the US, irrespective of one's qualifications.
We have a government, system and people that are fantastically corrupt.
We have people who engage in and support illegalities.

Our judiciary is biased and is for the highest bidders, and our political system and elections are flawed (none is perfect anywhere in the world) but ours is glaring and very embarrassing.

Our leaders are not patriotic and that is why when we as citizens have our rights trampled on locally or internationally, nothing is done about it.
Nigeria is not regarded as anything again.
In other words, we are just seen as nothing but irritating pollutants.

So for those of you that applaud evil in this land, pray you remain forever in Nigeria because even if it is just to go and visit and come back, they will not allow you.
If you even have a scholarship or any good thing that can take you out of this country, you will be frustrated at the embassy.

And for those of you that left already and are destroying the name of Nigeria, God's punishment awaits you.
And for those that are still making us proud in the US and elsewhere, may God continue to bless your efforts

I rest my case.
Please mods front page

When they tell some people to stop damaging Nigeria names and their leaders integrity on Internet, they thought you are only doing that for political reason.

It is OK to condemn government or call out corrupt leaders through constructive statements or vote them out but everything is bad or not proper if you call your country or leaders all sort of derogative names for the whole world to see on Internet. These people relies mostly on online forums and social medias to get their information about your country, yet some people has made this their duty to keep damaging the integrity of the country they called home thinking they are doing already rich politicians.

People should only call attention of government to what we think they should do rather than criticising them irrationally or keep damaging the name of their country. You can't slap your father in the present of your friends and expect the same friends to respect you and your father or allow you to come close to theirs.

It is indeed a curse to be Nigerian. I'm on my third attempt now to get a visa, and hopefully it will be successful this time after two previous failed attempts. Sometimes i wonder why humans have to go through such difficult processes just to travel. I sometimes envy the birds that fly freely at will. We committed no crime as immigrants; we just want to leave this country for the rich, corrupt people to defecate upon. Is that a crime?
Nigerian are the most blessed people on earth. I'm sorry you don't know this fact.
