The Old trick of hunting for tickets a day before travelling still works

chloe7:
Dunwun i'm so sorry about your refusal, I think you should try again,maybe that v.o just woke up on the wrong side of the bed, as for all that ties ties thing I don't believe it o jare, i'm sure the v.o just already knew she wasn't going to give you the visa,Pele, I believe in trial again at least the us embassy has taught me that everything in life isn't easy breezy, all the times i've laid my hands on uk I got it but us no gree me and i've continued to try my luck with them, thos ladies and men cross checking documents sef were pretty irritating, it was just one that attended to me that was okay, as I was turned back like this I just said to myself that this could have been another refusal cheer up, I didn't know what awaited me inside the interview hall if na pass abi na fail, I even forgot that gtbank receipt at home sef but they said it didn't matter.

Relax chloe I pray you get your Visa, but here is what I know, each year the US embassy knows the number of visit visas they would issue to applicants, all they do is simply divide that into number that will be issued per day. Have you noticed most people come here and talk about that particular VO in booth XYZ that is dashing out visas for the day? yea that one is the one to make the quota for the day achievable, all others will either not give you or they drill you, ask for documents e.t.c. before they give you. The next day, the angel will be another VO in another booth. The moment I entered the embassy it wasn't difficult to spot the angel and his/her booth, so when by divine intervention my ticket number popped up there, I knew God was right behind me. here is what you will notice, less than 3 minutes of interview time, his/her line is moving faster than others, if you fall in that booth you will definitely leave people you met waiting at the interview hall, he/she will leave her booth several times to get more passports for interview e.t.c if you spend abit more time in the waiting hall you can never miss the angelic booth of the day. I pray you fall there when the day finally arrives and it will not rain by the grace of God

N.B The question they ask usually are all what we have thrashed out here extensively.

tayoamos:

From the look of things and the way he spoke, I could see desperation in him . he probably wants to go to the USA at all cost and see, these vos are trained so much that they fish people like him out.
Like u said, there re lots of countries better than USA, why not forget USA and rather go to those countries. you dontdon't need to post any pics here to show u re somewhere pls

Let this issue go pls, the guy in question has even moved on haba!

Greetings to all Elders and Ancestors in the house,

I just received a message from CIC that I am being considered for Ontario provincial nomination....
Please can some one help guide me on the right documents I should get ready with and the right steps to securing the PNP

Thanks in anticipation!!

Please shed more light, what was the provincial application like?

Ess:

If I may ask, why is importatíon of vehicle a straight refusal?

I cant place my hands on what it is exactly but its one of the categories of reasons that get people denied, I saw it first hand on the day of my interview

stboff:


Part of reasons i am going to the states is to see how i can start importing vehicle parts/vehicles from there. I recently bought a commercial property i would love to establish my business in. I have applied for company registration but it isn't out yet.
Is is not possible to convince them via my bank account statement? perhaps if they see the kind of credit/debit transactions that should convince them of my industry and my financial buoyancy here in Nigeria.
I heard they don't even look at people's bank accounts. Is this true ?
I am still trying to read through most people's transcripts. I am yet to find a single person. Almost everyone that has been granted are married.

First Bolded, Red flag dont even mention it to the VO its straight denial
Second Bolded, they believe most document presented are fake as such they dont bother checking
Third Bolded, It depends on how you present your case and largely the VO you meet on the day

Hmmnn it is well, but ponder on this

1. Nobody wants to open a new bank salary account with a debit balance of 10m, that's what this baggage (The love-vendor & That Website/Link) will do to your marraige.
2. Some of us here or someone that looks up to u as "egbon" will still stumble upon that link one day
3. She might have changed but how do you want to deal issues when the normal marital fights occur in the future
4. Its not a issue of threat she is still cool with the love-vendor that's why he confidently called you.

To the single guys here you don't need a link or the love-vendor to find out wide this lesbianism has spread

Do this:
1. Go on twitter- See hundreds of ladies who seek other ladies - check their followings & followers and you will be amazed at the number of those that are not even ashamed of it.

That's my boys school o the only problem I have is when they display the campaign posters outside the school gate and wall and all motorist & passersby will see, the election is meant for the kids and not the public. Also it is fun because my kids tells me when they come to the kindergarten school to campaign they tell them things like "If you vote for me I will give you pencil, eraser, sharpener,e.t.c" they have even memorize the campaign

Hi Oghene migwo! Chloe7 migwo! LadyG migwo! Fredoricko migwo! Justwise, tzetzefly, suxes2005, tee12345 and d rest of d team
Kindly avail me your thoughts on my dilemma as stated below:
QUES 1.
I and my wife 'playfully' (ie without any serious intention to immigrate) applied for DV 2012 and we didnt even bother to find out whether we won or not, though we didnt get any correspondence that we had been selected.
Fastforward to 2015, myself, wify and 2 children are planning to apply for tourist visa to the US.
Do you think that 'playful' DV application will not be our undoing now (cos I dont know whether our names will pop up in their system as people who have once applied for DV before(immigration visa) now applying for non-immigrant tourist visa)
N/B:
We have previously travelled as a family to the UK in 2013 and will be doing same this year.
Thank you all as I await your response.

Playing the DV lottery in the past has nothing to do with applying for Visit visa now

kcheerful:



You must say what you have on ur ds160 form. If the date has changed u'll explain to the officials at poe. That's if it's not a conference. It it's a conference, u must go on the date specified on ur form, if it's vacation u're free to move dates. Except u want to fill another form and rebook ur interview which means paying another fee.

So what happens if I cant make that particular conference but was able to make it on the next date the same conference is to be held? More so since its a B1/B2 visa

Is the Turkish visa issued in this case a shengen Visa or applicable to turkey alone?

The lack of travel experience could also be a factor (Maybe for this particular VO)

NB was their any question about you travelling with your husband for this vacation? I think so dear so am thinking of going to dubai March month end .then when am back apply for UK. Then before thinking of usa again

Oh ok just put it in prayer, do the Dubai and if UK wahala is too much u can consider South Africa just to add to the travel history

cindynwagbo:
V.o: where in Maryland are you going to
Me: baltimore
Vo :what are you going to do there
Me: vacation for seven days
Vo:have you travelled before
Me:no
Vo how many kids do u have
Me one and she is right here with me

Vo :What does ur husband do
Me a medical doctor works with .......
Vo :and what do you do?
Me: am a student acquiring more knowledge to update my profile.
vo: head down typing
Vo : am sorry you don't have the necessary requirement for this visa.
That's all my people. Nothing else. Felt bad thou but what more can I do. Despite my husband's valid US visa.

The lack of travel experience could also be a factor (Maybe for this particular VO)

NB was their any question about you travelling with your husband for this vacation?

cindynwagbo:
Am back house though it was a denial but all thanks to God. I answered all the question asked and still the white woman didn't give myself and daughter. Pls I want to try UK pls can my gurus help me with the link and give me information about the visa application and procedures. Thanks house.

God knows best, why don't you share your transcript so others can learn? You might still have a second chance for that American visa

Truluvguy:
Irish woman living in Ireland. yes i was denied an Irish visa but wasn't stamped. just wrote my application number in my passport. i and my wife decided to meet in America since she needs no visa to the u.s

Am confused, are you saying that in Ireland if you married a citizen it is not a guarantee that you can join them over there to leave happily ever after?

chase123:
is there any Nigerian in this forum that migrated to Australian under the skill worker immigration programme,please drop a hint on life in Australia for new immigrants.Are there always good jobs available in Australia for skilled immigrants

It wont be a bad Idea if Oga Justwise will start a new thread/allow a new thread strictly for Australia Skilled worker migrants to share their experience as I having been scanning the thread for sometime myself so as to gain from experience to no avail

beejaybida:
Kindly note that it is not true o, Dubai has no age restriction for visas. Nigerians can get their visas as before. if you are in doubt, kindly call Dubai Immigrations on +97143139999 to enquire. better yet, call Emirates Airlines; they would ordinarily know since they belong to the govt of dubai and they say they arent aware of any such age restrictions.

I actually called the number and the gentle man that spoke to me said you must be 25yrs and above, he seems to have no knowledge about the 40 yrs circular.

Which movie did she actually do?

I need a really good 2 or 3 bedroom in Ogba budget 450K, I mean a really good one, I have seen some terrible ones there lately

Is there any available behind excellence hotel? budget is 450

Phema:


Your B1B2 visa covers medicals. So you can tell the CBP the exact thing you are going to the US to do.

However, you need to be prepared. Have your Dr's and Hospital's email correspondence, a document showing the total cost breakdown of the surgery and enough monetary evidence to cover the whole procedure and more for incontegencies. Please, don't go saying the money you intend spending is in your credit card. They usually want to see cash.

You may also want to inform the embassy here in Nigeria via email about your plans and asking for "approval" to go ahead. They usually reply. Print this reply and have it handy.

Goodluck.

Please what is the correct e-mail address for this?

Hello Abuja NIV, please I recently applied for and got a visit visa B1/B2 to attend a conference , am supposed to travel later this month but my MBA exams was resheduled and I wont be able to travel this month again, please what do I do so as not to have any problem at point of entry because of this changes when I eventually travel? I have already sent a mail to the embassy as regards this

thanks

Hi All,
Pls I seek your candid and urgent advice as my appointment date is around the corner. This is my story:
I graduated from the university early 2008 but due to some issues in my department then,our NYSC exercise was delayed. It was during this long wait that a friend in the states decided 
paying an agent here in Nigeria to help me facilitate a student visa application for a degree programme.So in Dec 2009,I applied but the agent coordinated the whole thing.He told me my chances are high if i apply for a degree programme since my first degree transcripts and other documents were still experiencing departmental issues. I think he requested for some few details then and  he later sent me the confirmation page plus other documents and was not so sure of whatever he filled for my profile online)
Unfortunately, I was denied due to some inconsistencies the VO noticed.I remembered he took a long time questioning me.The few conversation I remembered were:
VO: so how did you learn about the school and programme
Me: blabla(I think I mentioned one study center the agent mentioned to me but I noticed the VO wasn't impressed)
VO:So what have u been doing since  u finished your secondary school in 2003(that was after he asked and I told him I finished 2003)
Me: (the 22years old ignorant me started feeling uneasy) I have been working with my uncle's company
VO:what does your uncle do
Me:I told him
VO:so who is sponsoring you
Me:my uncle
VOHe raised his nose up a bit)your uncle or your your....(He din't finish the sentence then I think he later went through my e-20 on his computer)
You filled that your father is your sponsor right,so why are you claiming your uncle now
Me:yes sir, I said so because my uncle decided sponsoring me instead (the agent caused me this, he already filled online and printed out that my father is my sponsor meanwhile I was planning all along  to tender my uncle's statement of account because it was robust. My father wasnt aware of the student visa process but my plan was to get the visa first then tell him knowing he would support me since he knows our set was experiencing issues  with the school then.I knew my father won't say no to footing the whole trip if i end up getting the visa.so when the agent sent me my documents just two days to my appointment and I noticed my father in the sponsor section, I told him and he said I shouldn't worry that I could go ahead with my uncle's statement of account as they rarely check documents. I thought of still stating my father as my sponsor when the VO asked but I changed my mind cos I was scared he might ask to see the statement of acct next.
VO: am sorry maam, you are ineligible at this....(handed me a white paper which summaries have not been able to demonstrate adequate financial arrangements for the purpose I claimed or that my stated purpose isn't convincing kind of)
We were called up for our nysc two months after my visa refusal so I pushed away the us traveling plans. 
Fast forward 2013, I was sent abroad by my current company for a training in the UK which was my first trip outside nigeria.I came back and went back again two months after for Xmas hols. So in march 2014, I decided to give the us visa a shot again(my cousin was getting married in April but it was her mum I filled as my contact in the US cos she was the one inviting me). Unfortunately,I was denied again but I think I was able to pick out some points for my rejection(my responses were very brief and not so explanatory.Think I did this again out of ignorance and heading to an advice that I should talk less). The conversation:
VO: so u work with sososo company
Me: yes
VO: how long have u been there
Me: told her
VO:have you travelled out of nigeria before
Me: yes twice, for a training last year October and a Xmas hols in December(my 6months UK visa expired a month before the us interview)
VO:where did you stay in the UK
Me: I stayed ...during my first trip and stayed...during my second trip
VO: so u are visiting Mrs....
Me: yes,my aunt( I guess I should have furthered explain that I wasn't just visiting her but also attending her daughter's wedding)
VO: what does she do in the us
Me: she is a pastor
VO: when last did you see her
Me: 2011 when she came around
VO: are you single or married(she stared at the engagement ring on my finger)
Me: single(I made the mistake of not going further to state I was engaged and was in fact getting married in some months time. I thought I had to mince my responses)
VO:how many siblings have u got
Me:3
VO:tell me about them briefly
Me: they are currently undergraduates at so so so
She typed shortly and handed me a blue paper which summarises my lack of strong ties.
I renewed my uk visa in july and got 2years. Also,I got married in august. Now this is my concern, I plan spending my annual leave for Christmas hol in the us but hubby can't come along as he just got this new job in September hence he isn't entitled to a leave yet plus he isn't a fan of foreign trips due to his phobia for heights/long flights so I don't really see him travelling out soonest. Since its over 7 months I got denied, I decided reapplying. I am sponsoring myself for the trip cos hubby just spent lots recently(accommodation, home appliances etc).Though i made a hotel reservation, i filled in my male cousin as my contact in the us cos I hope to see him and his kids briefly before going on my tour around plus he said he might in fact accompany me around if he wasn't so busy then.
Please all, what are the likely questions or issues I should expect this time around during my interview o and what do you feel are my chances. I must not be denied this third time o

So many Inconsistencies but here is my take
Try to travel to UK with your husband or may be Dubai/South Africa First
Try to apply for that US holiday with your husband (He doesn't have to travel with you)
Try to use that same Aunt as your contact person(you may go anywhere you like once you scale POE)
There are already basis for rejection (i.e travelling for holiday alone) but hey you know baba God works wonders you may just apply and they will give you irrespective

Now I remember where I saw those chairs with long back rest, it was at his brother (Yomi Casual's) house warming. Its good for family to patronize one another, but that design? I comment my reserve

^^^ Hmmn Interesting thanks for sharing

omedical:
Me......oozing confidence.....good afternoon sir. Vo....how do u do? Me....l'm fine. Vo....why are you going to las Vegas. Me......I am going for my ist Xmas vacation in four years (I was trying to prepare his mind for my virgin passport). Vo......why Vegas. Me; its the sin city. The capital city of tourist worldwide. Since I will be travelling alone I want a city that won't be lonely and Vegas meet my criteria. From freemont street experience to open parties in las Vegas strip to new year fireworks.... It promises to be fun. Vo....what do you do? Me; I am a medical doctor in private practice. I run my own private hospital? Vo......where did u finish? Me: I told him. (He was crosschecking with his system) Vote...but u applied to bible school in 2005 so must have graduated last year! Me; no sir. I applied to bible school then as a postgraduate student in my final year of medical school. Vo; have u now gone to bible school either in Nigeria or anywhere else since u were denied? Me: no sir. Vo; you are not travelling with your wife this time. Me......I explained one of us must stay behind in the hospital and my children are already going to south Africa on excursions with their school in December. Vo......brought out the blue paper and bounced me...lol

Sorry for the denial, what I can deduce,
(1) you have not traveled to another country before
(2) Vacation is part of American culture so when you say you are travelling for vacation without your family/spouse they find it difficult to understand (no matter how good the excuse is)
(3) They hardly check documents because they believe most documents are falsified
(4) You can try applying with your wife next time (for vacation) even if you wont travel together
(5) As far as USA visa interview is concerned, try to keep the answers short @ bolded (I understand you wanted to explain yourself but they read meanings to some of this things)

How about Canada? who has an idea?
