Haha!!! Baddest!!!
But you do remember how some boarding students fall sick often. And of course those days we had a stronger immune system compared to now. As you grow older your immune system weakens,but there are food supplements you can take to boost your system.

Really,it's not so hygienic sharing most things. We humans are vectors to germs 95% of the time. Some germs are able to survive even on soap,be it antiseptic or not.

I have been a silent reader (a member of the silent readers association of this group you'll say) since about 3 months ago. I took my time to skim through part 1, read part 2 into detail and I've been following part 3 so religiously.

Our Interview (I, Darling Wife & Son) went for our interview yesterday at 7:30AM and below is the transcript:


VO: Good morning

I and DWF: Good morning (together, smiling)

Me: Carried our son in a carrier. He had slept off while waiting on the queue for fingerprint capture having gone through the preliminary clearance

VO: Passports please

Me: Gave him.

VO: why are you going to the US?

Me: We are going to Houston Texas for family vacation and to visit my brother who tried to attend our wedding in October 2015 but couldn't make it due to his intense work schedule at the firm he was working with at the time. We have also been wanting to take the vacation and visit on his request since then but our work schedule and our inability to synchronise our leave wouldn't allow us

VO : (cuts in) how long are u going for?

Me: 14days.

VO: What do you do? (That was the VO's undoing....)

Me: I'm the Head of IT for blablabla managing the entire IT enterprise infrastructure across blablabla (mentioned all the regions my company covers) ......I oversee. ...bla bla bla (until the VO stopped me).....sincerely, I needed a stopping.

VO: How much is your salary? (Gbam!...another land mine just triggered by VO)

Me: I earn approximately blablabla, exclusive of revenue generated from the annual rentals of my real estate and also incomes from private IT consultancy to SME's
All the while, DWF was smiling and looking straight into the VO's eyes.

VO : Madam, what do you do?

DWF: I'm an assistant manager, sales in an IT sales and solutions company, blablabla....... I build and maintain close relationship btw blablabla... and her customers in particular sectors like blablabla and blablabla, till VO stopped her.

VO: (to me), tell me about IT Infrastructure. ....(inadvertently unleashed the dragon) that was how I went on a roll.....when I join blablabla....there was nothing like structure as the entire network was on a WORKGROUP, So I commenced the design of a full fledge domain infrastructure, implemented on blablabla Server blablabla R2 Datacenter Edition mounted on blablabla Server Machine and hosting over 7 VMs representing core services delivered on the infrastructure....... VO couldn't help but smile through my long epistle until and had to stop me after a while.

VO: How long have you worked for?

Me: I'll be 7 years by February ending

VO: you madam (to DWF)

DWF: I'll be 7 by April ending

VO: Have you travelled before ?

Me and DWF at the same time: Yes.

VO: Flips through my passport rapidly

Me: Given my job role, I have travelled between Nigeria and Ghana multiple times...while at it, I noticed he was trying to check through DWF's passport and taking I initiative, I immediately said - - you may want to see this (passing DWF's old passport containing her trip to Ghana in 2011 to him)

VO: Flips through the passport, checking the entry and exit stamps seems to be amused about the Bank's stamp of the $ amount of PTA purchased for the trip at the time, smiles and returned it to me.

VO: Do you have any other child or children?

DWF and I : No, he's only 8 months, DWF added.

VO: Went back to his computer and started typing away as if he was on a hacking adventure......and the typing continued like it was going to be for eternity only for him to lift his head after about 2 minutes beaming with smile and the magic sentence spilled from his mouth......Your VISA has been approved! ("Gbam!!!" - not part of the sentence).

DFW just packed all we had resting on the platform and didn't wait to hear the rest.

My hand of its own accord outstretched to collect the white paper whilst I managed to mutter the words "Have a nice day and happy new year"

I practically floated on air out of the building.

Rushed to catch up with DFW and told her to keep a straight face because I wasn't ready to give shishi to no security. One even tried asking how it went, we just walked past completely hushed.


NB:

I was denied F1 back in July 2006 for not having enough tie and went ahead to study an almost identical course in the University here in Nigeria.

I have since been working after graduation.

Went to the embassy with, introductory letter from office, salary breakdown, statement of accounts - DWF's and mine, Properties documents, training and school certificates but not a single document was checked.

Elder brother is a citizen while younger sister (non-immigrant) is presently attending a University for Masters

I need to thank the brains behind this platform immensely for ensuring the sustainability of the platform and standing resolute in the face of all sorts of insults and castigation.

The advices that everyone brings to bare is unquantifiable and may the FORCE reward each and all accordingly.

I wish intending applicants and those reapplying good luck

I'm in D bank now and I overheard someone claiming he knows insiders in D us Embassy.. Is this possible cos the travel agent sure has enough testimonies to validate his claim. He's even paying for tickets on behalf of 3 clients.. I want my well informed nairalanders to shed more light on this.

seyewest:
wow... Nice transcript remember to visit Lennox Square...

souleymon:

Olusheee:

Thank you for showing your intent at least we can all conclude that you want to leave Nigeria by all means... if it's the arab country you want fine even if it's U.S just inform them of your intention to migrate and they will put you through... just be honest with them because they hate liars with passion.. they will show you how to go about immigrant visa. Good luck...

abujaniv:
Hello all. This is a general public service announcement. We've been seeing an uptick in counterfeit visas and stamps in applicants' passports. These people have been fooled into thinking that these false endorsements will help them get a US visa. If you come into the US Embassy/Consulate with fake visas/stamps, the best case scenario is that you will be denied. If we decide to pursue the matter, we will contact the local police, and you will be arrested, while your passport is forfeited to the Nigerian Immigration Service. To be sure, your credibility will be trashed, and you will find it nearly impossible to ever qualify for a US visa for the rest of your life.

This should be common sense, but please tell your friends and family so that they do not fall prey to agents and touts wanting to enrich themselves by selling fake documents.

DrGaius:
Thanks. In a situation where I am going to hustle, and am asked why I came to the US, what do I tell them. Also, what do I reply, if the question of how long will you be staying arises?

Ifeoluwadire:
