You never got back to us, how your trip to the UK went as per transit visa.
no transit visa required.
the agent simply wanted me to use them in getting a UK visa - to ease the trip.

Hailings...

1. Must the onward flight (or means of transport) from new york to one's final destination be a return ticket?

2. Can one book an onward flight to the final destination a day after landing at the POE? My contact person informed me that 'based on logistics'
the only flight available from NYC to my final destination leaves about 3hrs after I land, and of cuz i wouldn't meet up.
The only other flight is the following day.
Thus, would having an onward ticket up to 24hrs after landing at the POE create problems for me at the POE?

3. Asides Greyhound, are there other reputable bus services one can utilize (considering this option if staying back in NYC for long would raise
problems for me at the POE)

Thanks.

Hi everyone, please does anyone know if going to Lagos for my next visa interview will hamper my chances? I was denied in Abuja in Decemeber and i also live in Abuja. I want to know if it'll be suspicious that i came from Abuja to Lagos. Thanks
ur record is everywhere, so the outcome wouldn't change regardless.

Guy, bone the guy.
He can't do jack.
If he comes to your house (he wouldn't tho), beat the living day light out of him.
The best they can do is debit your account for the value and decline providing a reference for you....shikena.

Was at the lagos consulate for my interview with my family this morning, went with my wife and daughter 5 months old. here's the transcript ;


Vo: how did you get start up fund
Me: family support
Vo: what's your net worth ( he rephrase it severally and asked if I understand
Me: 7million monthly
my opinion:

net-worth is ur sum total of ur assets - ur liabilities
as someone in business - or should i say someone doing such serious business, your response came off as someone not grounded in basic financials which as CEO you should know. i feel that was a huge minus.

Sorry to ask you this question.. Is it a must you must fly with Virgin? I think Lufthansa is cheaper and also have you called the airline to confirm?
i called o.
....could barely hear what the lady was saying sha with the plenty american accent but she basically said they can't confirm that.

same for lufthansa...(the travel agent claims i would need one where the layover is over 4hrs - frankfurt)

i don taya.
TravelRe: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by getostar:
LadyGuinivere:
The question is, which airline are you going on? If it stops and tkes off from heathrow, no visa needed. If it stops at heathrow and takes off from gatwick, then you need a visa. That would be Virgin, had that ish with them one time.
Virgin. the flight lands and departs from heathrow.
TravelRe: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by getostar:
seyewest:
You don't need a transit visa if you're flying BA or Virgin Atlantic to your destination
You don't need a transit visa if you will be in the airport waiting for the next flight
You don't need a transit visa if your flight is taking off from the same airport you flew into e.g Heathrow
You don't need a transit visa if your connecting flight is under 24hrs.
TravelRe: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by getostar: 2:41pm On Mar 20, 2017
Beehandz:
No since ur stop over is just 1hr plus
lemme rephrase:

would u need a transit visa where your layover in the UK is 23+hrs.
the travel agency insists that where ur layover is more than an hour, you require a transit visa.

can someone reconfirm this?

cc. Seyewest, LadyG
TravelRe: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by getostar: 12:49pm On Mar 20, 2017
my pipu, i need confirmation pls.
is it true one must have a transit visa if one is passing through the UK to the US, where the layover is over 1hour.

Nairaland GeneralRe: Lagos To Set Up Environmental Sanitation Corps Agency, Introduces Fundamental R by getostar: 11:59am On Mar 07, 2017
what a law!
a state that should provide its citizens with water is asking people to obtain permits (at a cost obviously) to provide themselves with water!
a tax payer would still be required to come out on a saturday (when he/she should be doing something productive) to clean streets and drains. Then u lock down a state for 3hrs to achieve what you can easily achieve by paying street cleaners to do same thus creating employment and ensuring that people can be more productive.
this country is truly lost!

Sometimes it is quite tempting to agree with Nnamdi Kanu that we r indeed in a zoo!

How else can u explain the rationale behind asking people not to wear a certain kind of colour ...or even paint their vehicle with same color!

Myopic people all around so concerned with mundane things.

mecussey:
So freeze dey do MMM...lol.. Well, I have learnt a whole from mmm..

1) its true ur fellow nigerian dont like ur progress

2) people kept a whole lot of idle money

3) it is possible to rule Nigerians but the leaders dont know the key.

4) Cbn is not helping the common man and there are no good thinkers

5) People dont mind there business...they are more interested in another persons business.

Now, by the next decade and new version of mmm will show up but it will run better this decade if it shows up very soon.

Simple, create something like mmm and take a percentage as reserve to save the system during crash. Never pause the system, just make sure u have enough reserve to save the system. Microfinance banks should use mmm style...it will benefit all. I believe mmm has alot of un harvested potentials.
Yet universities are only interested in what students wear! hmmm
RomanceRe: Do You Think I've Got A Chance With Him? by getostar: 10:52am On Feb 08, 2017
He doesn't have romantic feelings for you...simple.
You thus have a choice, create the romance. Travel to a new place together...see if u guys connect on that level.
jealousy works too...flaunt a new guy and see if that would trigger his true feelings.
If he still doesn't come unto you after any of these, then forget him.
move on with ur life and trust me, ur type would eventually meet a man who'd so drool over u.

***there could be a twist in future u know. Long after both of u settle down in ur marriages, his brain would be 'reset' n don't be surprised he'd so pursue n tempt u outta ur home (be sure not to fall for that).

i don't pity any of them.
as far as i am concerned they should be laughed at.
when we warned them, we were tagged haters and bad belles, they asked us to keep quiet.
now its their turn to keep quiet n lick their wounds in silence.
if we had strong institutions, all its promoters should be in kirikiri by now.

angeltolly:
Well, you took a new dimension now that you know am a lady too.
We don't have to argue and we all are entitled to our opinions. Unilag only gave guidelines to the type of dressing they want on campus and won't come disturb anyone who does that outside the school environment. If it suits you to dress provocatively, then suit yourself
no dimensions dear....

(Some of those girls won't like this yet they keep shouting "sexual harassment"wink

need i say more?

when a lady gets raped, the 1st thing ur type would say is 'she's fond of dressing indecently'.

then again, that's your view and that's the limit of your understanding....who am i to judge!

So that is the only thing you could pick on from my statement? Are you pained about something or what? Is there any problem telling people to dress responsibly? I am a woman, and a mother of a little girl too. I have been in the academic environment for a while now and I know what am talking about. Please don't pick on me. Thanks
a people so fixated with appearance like the pharisees.
y not champion quality education n the use of a curriculum that reflects existing realities in education.
y not champion the cause of many innocent young girls faced with sexual harassment by those whose duty is to protect them.
y not engage govt and sch authorities to provide learning structures and modern facilities fit for a higher institution
y not engage society at large to imbibe true values such as honesty, sincerity, dignity in labor and eschew vices that encourage corruption, theft, get rich quick etc that leave the youth the impression that the university is just another place they go to - becuz they were asked to go there.
have u even asked yourself where are a good number of the 'yahoo boys' are? .....in our universities!!!
y do u define character simply by what someone chooses to wear?

we should not be bucked down by focusing on distractions.

in some states in the US, it is legal to be topless publicly.
yet the rape count doesn't even near the figures churned out from our campuses...reason?
we focus too much on the wrong things.
if a man cannot hold his sanity simply cuz the woman next to him chooses not to wear a bra under her shirt, then that man should have his john cut off!
i don't subscribe to indecent dressing...but it is totally wrong to prevent one from dressing the way he/she wants too as defined by legal laws in the land.

Ok. Let's assume you have a point which we both know you actually don't. For argument sake, what were they supposed to do before this?
is that a question u really want me to answer?

have you asked urself why we have eggheads walking around calling themselves graduates?
have you asked urself why we dont have one university that boasts of adding value to africa or the world thru research?

then again....u r clearly one of those more interested in body parts than the quality of educ u receive in our institutions.
