How does one pay the fee?

Hello everyone...I'll be travelling to the U.S next week with my 4 kids, and we intend staying for 2 weeks. I agreed to carry some things to my sister who lives in the states, so i might end up carrying up to 5 suitcases. Would that be a problem at the POE since we would be there for just 2 weeks? Would they ask why we are carrying up to 5 bags?

If you had told the VO during ur interview that u knew no one or had no one in the states it might be a problem if u show up at POE with 5 bags saying they're for someone. Secondly the contents of all 4 bags matter oh! If u feel this might hold u up at secondary inspection for hours then u might wanna rethink that move...those homeland officers aint playing these days!

Good morning folks. Kindly advice me on this: I applied for a student visa in 2007. I had to travel to lagos to sit for SAT exams as the centres were almost non existent in abuja then. Unfortunately I was issued a fake result. Unknowingly I took it to the embassy then and I was denied based on that document. Fast forward 12years after. I have an Msc, married with 3kids and work with an international development organisation. I now seek to apply to go to the US with just my wife and last born. My wife runs a business where she sells baby cloths and beauty products. I want to ask what are our chances of been issued a visa? Do you think I was banned when I first went to the embassy 12years ago? Is it better we apply to go the UK first before applying to the US embassy? Please not that I still do not have any travel history. I will appreciate your response and admonitions.

Yes you can actually apply at any time. The US ban on fraudulent documents is 10 years and that time has elapsed

I was one of the last dropboxers too..lol
Inshort dropbox was cancelled the very next day after my visa was issued!

I'm just thanking God here cos I just had mine re-issued last week on the 7th and I picked up yesterday! I dont live in Abuja or Lagos so imagine the stress of traveling to either of these places for interview! Airfare, hotel etc! God loves me oh!
