UmmZayd:
Ehm so sorry about the delay. When you were filling your application did you include the part that stated you've been to the States before?? I'm asking because in your response you only mentioned UK. Or you just obtained the visa without using it throughout your stay in UK?

I obtained the visa and I didn't use it because my summer class results were released and I needed to do a resit for one course to give me distinction and the examination resit coincides with the conference paper presentation and I had to abort the trip because the purpose and my intentions was to attend a conference nothing more, and Afterwards I had the visa for many months before it expired . Do I need to travel to USA if I have no reason? I even gave the visa number in my application .....

Sorry about the rejection, next time let your wife apply with your baby so you can be their ''tie'' to Nigeria or travel together as family to another country since U.S trip did not work out, it will improve your family profile when next you want to apply for U.S Visa in the future.

It's such annoying moment because I have obtained US visa in the past in UK while in Aberdeen.

I apply for a b1/b2. And was refused officer says I'm not qualify. I don't know what went wrong but this is what happen. I am Human Resource Manager in audit and Tax firm in Lagos and my wife also HR manager of an investment and asset management company a known organisation.
