Thanks for response and advice.

Even though I feel 3-months isn’t over stay (when compare to the allowed period of 6-months) with more cogent reasons for staying for that period.

They have visited other places UK and Dubai precisely, nevertheless I will check through the date of first refusal and take into consideration the like penalty of 2years or 5years.

But did you say I can reapply with them despite I have a valid visa or wait till that expire then reapply with them.

Many thanks.

DrStrangelove:
First off, your wife and the accompanying daughter are been penalized for the long stay of 3 months. Now am not sure if this is a 2yr or 5yr penalty though I think it's the former. That's why she's been refused over and over again.

Your other daughter that attended with u is just collateral damage. Pls check the length of time from 1st refusal and now. If it's over 2 years, then u can try to reapply with urself and the whole family.

Meanwhile, ur wife and daughters should try to visit other places. Applying a third time in the immediate future to the US will show desperation.

Goodluck

Nah…..I was just thinking that in my mind.

She’s always been traveling with me from the very first time and I also explained this to the VO. We all applied for a Dropbox renewal sometime in 2018, mine and her own were approved while others were denied. Meaning we have same expiry period which is different from others. Since both of us qualified for IW and others didn’t, hence the reason for the split.

Thanks for the advice.

UmmZayd:



Okay just for clarification, did you verbally said, "which I didn't considered as an offense" or you were just thinking in your mind?
Again, why is your daughter traveling with you now and not applied with the rest? (First daughter and wife)

So as I'm thinking now, the VO will probably be thinking you splitted the interview into 2. Like, you go with one child while I go with the other. Nevertheless, you can't apply with them again because you have your visa already so let them all apply together.

Good day house, I had my follow-up interview for the IW visa renewal today. Below are the transcripts:

VO: Hello �
Me: smiled back faintly (because the woman was mean to few people before me)
VO: After scanning through the passports (me and my daughter), she asked why my wife and my other daughter visa interview was not successful recently.
Me: I briefly explained this based on the transcripts my wife told me (she stayed over three months in her last visit which I don’t considered an offense) then the VO continued with a lot of other personal questions which I answered.
VO: why did you travel in 2018 without your family?
Me: I went for a conference plus it was a very short stay. Next thing…..
VO: Your visa is approved but I’m sorry your daughter does not qualify for the visa for now
Me: this girl has never over stayed and the few times she traveled has always be with me (maximum of three weeks).
VO: Yes I can see that, she can reapply with her mum and her sister the next time.

Note: if you interviewing (non-immigrant) in Lagos anytime soon, please try to avoid the VO in the first counter (a slim white woman like that �).

Please I need advise from the house, this is the second time my wife and the other daughter are been denied (for this long stay reason and her response has always been the same - to take care of our host which was sick then), now they have joined my little daughter. Should I reapply with them all despite that mine is approved or what?
