Will just add a few of my own experience. Hopefully someone with more knowledge comes in as well.

1. I have applied for Visiting Visa at US Embassy at Abuja when I was still in Nigeria but got denied on the bases of no much travelling history. I only visited Ghana as my first international travelling.

- I had no travel history either and was approved on first attempt.

2. The agent that applied for my former US Visiting visa put Married instead of single which I complained and he said it will make the Consulate to grant me Visa. All my documents I used in applying for Germany studies and European visa all bear single instead of Married.
Do I need to correct the marital status back to single or I should live it Married as was first put by my former agent?

- i think you shd be truthful on your ds160. Lies can cause nervousness and affect your chances if you get asked abt it.

3. My brother lives in US and he came through Visiting but now Married to a US citizen. Is it wise to put any information about him and what will be my answer if the VO ask me if I have any relation in US?

- I declared my sibling in the USA. I was asked about it but mostly around sponsorship.

4. A company I am working with is my sponsor and is it okay using a company as a sponsor?

- I believe so. I've read several posts here with successful outcomes.

I do think it's largely based on the VO's discretion and how well you fill in your ds160. Best of luck.

I just got admission from University of Wisconsin Milwaukee. The next step is visa and this is my 3rd time. Been denied 2 times and I'm 20yrs old. This time around it's not my parents who is sponsoring me. During lockdown last year we were doing community services, teaching kids how to read and write in the villages and this actually got me a full time scholarship from my local government to do my bachelor's in economics abroad. How do I go about it? I'm happy and confused.
What paperwork do I need to get from the local government while going for interview?
Or should I inform the school that the government is sponsoring me?

Did y'all sign your i-20? Is it compulsory? Mine isn't even signed by the school.
