manosteel: I recently got married to this lady, she works in construction company while I worked in Govt. Ministry. I have seen my wife's pay slip, she earns slightly higher than I, but she believes that I'm earning higher than her,and she respects me as well as my job for that. I'm thinking of opening up to her and to let her know my true salary, should she find out in the future and treat me as a lier, but at the same time, I'm afraid that I might loose the respect she has for me as the head of the family.

If u did not use ur own mouth to tell her u were earning higher than her then u didn't lie.

michelin89: The girl was looking for an excuse to break up with you!

ebyadieze: But Kpolli, do you not think that this is rather confusing? What they will give you should affect the real thing that you should fill on the form. I need the information that is required to be filled on the form to avoid an form of uncertainty or intention to overstay.

Please help!!!

24 months is more feasible than 22 months. . . Ok put 36 months but when they ask you how long is ur program, hope u can defend ur ans

[quote author=dr_dolittle]Hey! Please be advised. Whatever you input must tally with what you have on your form I-20.

Therefore, duration or length of stay= 36 months(according to your I-20)

For accommodation, the answer is 'your school address on your I-20' since you do not have a place yet.

Peace![/quote]Mine said 36 too but I Filled in 24 months too

In the end na 24 months them go give am. . .

yankison: @kpoli

Do u think it sounds good to fill this as a reason for a previous denial .

I didn't give it my best shot so the VO advised me to apply into. A 4year degree college .

@ House
This #uestion is thrown to you too . Gurus

Yes, Just say u weren't well prepared for the interview

yankison: @houseeeeeee


I can't see where to fill my travel experience . Did they modify ds 160 ? . I beg help me .

Check well, can't remember exactly well but they ask all countries visited in the past 5yrs. . .

About ur facial marks, u just have to take ur passport pix like that

Julie55: dr do little-
Abeg no vex, I do not understand what PM means? Do you mean that I should send u an e-mail?
king1 00
Thanks for your help. Concerning home ties, when is the most appropriate time to present my parents' property documents? Is it when Im asked what they do for a living?
sndrmtns
Thanks. Concerning changing of school being a big 'red flag', it should not be. I got a cheaper, and equally good school. That is their wahala o! There is nothing I can do about that!
BeeMee
Thanks a lot. What type of proofs do you suggest. The only strong point for me is the relevance of my course to Nigeria for now.
Can the VOs be questioned? Even Obama cannot change their decision.
Philolos
Thanks a lot.I pray I get through with this cos a lot has gone into it. You are right though. Its well!

One more thing please, when filling reason for previous denials on the DS 160, do I fill the most recent, or all previous interviews attended?
Thanks guys, I appreciate your responses...look forward to more

Do not present a document they didn't ask for so only do so when they ask u to, There are lots of reasons why we need public health personnels in naija (mosquito, malaria n co), Fill all ur interview experiences.

ebyadieze: Hello Guys,

Please what do I complete in the section for "Intended Length of Stay in U.S."?
My I-20 has the normal length of study is 36months while my program structure says 22months, which one do I go with?

Also, I do not have accommodation yet and there is a section for where you will be staying in the US. What do I fill in this section?

I appreciate your candid responses.

50cent.

How? He is convinced he can do it and that's the spirit

obusco4lyfe: with wat i've learnt on this thread, they usually reject those who aren't fresh frm high sch i.e those who hv a diploma already. As 4 me, i don't!

Ok

Mystiqme: So I have been on this thread since 2010 and I have been following up throughout my GRE and TOEFL process, through my application process and through my spring rejects but I finally had my interview last Friday and this is how it went down.
It was pretty short (about 3 mins) as I told God I wanted the previous day and out of my over 20 documents, only 2 were requested by the VO.
I was at the Lagos embassy and about 4 VOs were interviewing:the African-American on Counter 1,one white guy on 2,one elderly guy on 3, and one other guy on the last counter.
The guy on C2 refused all the women that came for visiting(Did he think they were pregnant ). Anyway my token number was 174 and when i saw 173 on C2, I don dey fear but I don dey prepare my mind for a difficult interview even though I was sure I would make it.Suddenly C1 flashed 174 and I walked up to him on jelly legs. It seemed I had forgotten everything I had rehearsed. Anyway....
The Interview
Me: Good morning
VO: Pass your documents, please.
Me: I passed them. He scrutinized them and at the same time was looking at my face. Maybe he dey look this small boi wey dey go do PhD.
VO: Did you take the GRE?
Me: Yes I took it (I passed him my scores).
VO: Do you have your transcript?
Me: Yes, I do. I pass am.
VO: Looked at my transcript and asked 'What is ecology?' I guess this question came up because I studied Botany and I am going for a PhD in Ecology.
Me: I don already dey blow answer afterall ana my turf na, but he stopped me and asked:
VO: What is the difference between Botany and Ecology?
Me: Botany is basically the study of plants while Ecology is the study of plants in their environment..both biotic and abiotic. Short like that, I no sabi talk too much
VO: So what will this degree do for you?
Me: Well, I already work here as a ...... so it will enable me get promoted more rapidly in my place of work.
As I was answering the last question He was already tearing the green ticket.
VO: Alright, I am granting you your Visa, go and collect it on Wednesday at Ikeja.
Me: In a small voice..thank you. I was trying to hide a smile but I was not successful.
All the best guys, I will try to be available to answer any questions. Cheers!

Congrats bro. . .

Same guy that interviewed me and same question format

obusco4lyfe: its a community college

I know, I meant hope its not a community college's I-20 ur taking for ur interview. . . You know what they say about Community colleges here. . . VO can use that as a reason to reject u

Julie55: Thanks for the response.
No one has filed for an immigrant visa on my behalf.
The first interview went okay. Normal questions were asked till the VO said 'why do u want to change career?'
I did not answer that well. (I have a couple of friends who are dentists going for Public Health who got their Visas.)
My documents-Bank statement, with supporting letter just as u said,School certificate, GRE+ TOEFL scores, admission letters,NYSC certificate, and the other school documents- SERVIS, I20, etc.
Graduated 2009, works as a denitst.

Take along ur payslips and your sponsors too or company documents. . . .

bypassit: i attached my i-20 and when i called them,they stated i was denied the emergency date because i have used the emergency option before and i got denied visa.

fulfillment2020: Dear Nairalanders,
I am a 23year old female. My parents died when i was 8 then I dropped out of school because no one could afford to pay my fees. I then met this guy when i was 14 and he sent me back to school. He was selling fruit then but still he was Able to pay my fees.
He then got a job as a truck driver and sent me to university. my problem is that i feel i can't continue with this
relationship because he is not my type, he isn't fluent in English, he his a very short man Plus some other Personal stuffs.

I feel I have Paid him back for his Good Deeds cos I give him sex anytime and anywhere he wants. But now he can't meet up to my demands.

How best can i tell him that he is not my type without hurting his feelings??
I am grateful that he sent me to school but i can't be in a relationship with him anymore.
I want somebody in my own class not a truck driver.
Please can someone advice me on what to do! Am confused.

STUPID BIATCH

lawyer: Some of you are just extremely ignorant about facts and if you dont know "ask" so people will educate you. Mukina is a Supermod and its her duty to make sure there are topics on the home page to keep the readers interested. Each section has its own moderator that should provide at least 1 or 2 topics a day to populate the Home page and she does that diligently whenever a moderator gives her a topic to post. She does not only post these topics but she scrutinizes them and edit them for your consumption.

Now when there are a dearth of topics from the moderators per Forum, she goes to each forum to see which topic is trending both on NL and or on the internet to keep NL informed. Yes some topics look stupid but remember it wasnt Mukina that posted the original topic but she helps to popularize Nl members and topics that would have gotten poor viewership if it wasnt on the Home page.

This woman is an Amazon and she has been doing this for years diligently. Rather than accuse her she should be praised and respected for her true dedication to this selfless job that i know if it was given to this poster to do, he will abandon it in 72hours.

Mukkie i de your back no shaking!!! Your boys are loyal

R u her lawyer?

How many times in a year does he do bday? This is the fourth time this year. . . Na mothers' day?

tony44: please i have a space for remarks on my i-20 am i supposed to leave it blank..l mean is that spae for the vo?
