I guess she don used agent be that and maybe the agent requested for another 700k from her

mcobex:
It states on their site that they will refund if TRV app is denied, so where is the moniker getting the info she is telling the house? Even the issue of deferral, their is no charges attached to it(if done on time) and she said something about being charged around 700k for it(of she wants to defer)...

Tranquil38:
It's student visa, was a denial reasons being that no ties to home country... I want to reapply but please how do I handle this issue of no tie to Nigeria?

You are right my brother

I posted something sometimes ago, some know-it-all were condemning me. Any information I post here is from the in-house. I disn't argue th because they are classical.
Only the required docs go to NAIROBI. Other optional docs that support your application stay back here. This is coupled with the strict nature of NAIROBI VOs who are majorly Indian-Canadians.
THE BETTER OPTION IS GO ONLINE IN YOUR NEXT APPLICATION

What is your status in Dubai?

3rdeye1:
Hi.. is it true I can’t apply for US visa from Dubai and I have to go to Nigeria? Few people have told me this. Anyone with info pls Thanks

My friend and his wife got their visa with virgin Passport at the same time ..

iphi:
Going for my visa interview tomorrow 8am... Virgin passport... I know you guys will say my chances are slim... But I want to break record... Everyone talks about having travel history... I have never traveled before.. Has anyone ever had a visa with virgin passport or heard of anyone?

I did mine on Thursday and i got there 10am and left 11.10am

MeinKampf:
@NeyofeedNigEnt, No your sister doesn't need to book an appointment for biometrics. Did mine 2 weeks ago and got to VFS around 11 am and left there before 3pm.
@Biakwa, the application is obviously online as paper routes applicants do their biometrics when submitting same day

Gen 39 vs 4, God that gave Joseph favor in the Foreign land, give me favor over my journey to Canada. Amen in Jesus Name

Edit: I will also like to note to applicants having either parents as sponsor. My dad used a powerful statement when stating why he’s sponsoring me. Apart from stating his company is currenting undergoing different projects which are within the confines of my proposed study. He also emphasized that it’s his role as a father to ensure I attain my life goals. I was touched by this and I think any VO who is human too will Ben touched by it.

KDK:
Thanks to all the information on this thread and those on sister threads. I appreciate all contributors and information. God bless you all.
I have a longer preamble in the another thread, so if you like epistles, you can go there.( https://www.nairaland.com/4116999/usa-visit-visa-part-3/294#68927886 ).
I did drop box with my family but was asked to appear for interview. However, whilst my passport was still at the embassy , my office said i had to go for a meeting in the states. So blessedly, I got a nearer date. On the day of the interview, I decided to separate from my family since I am now going on business trip and not tourism.
Whilst on the queue i observed that there was a lot of denials even those going for business meetings from big organisations in the oil and gas sector. This even increased my anxiety as nothing seems sure with this embassy.
Anyway, I observed that there was a guy standing behind them and they sometimes, switch off their mic so as to seek his opinion on some cases. However, in all these, I had to admit that even though these VO’s were not friendly, they seemingly only followed what the systems gives as a summation of all their inputs. Or atleast that is what I believe. It even reminded me of a discussion I had with some people whilst on the queue. We discussed the possibility of them already deciding your case but interviewing to know if that decision should stand or not (Speculations).
At a time, this supposed supervisor went to a window and requested the next person. Before the other people in the three other windows had completed their interviews, this guy had sent his interviewee with a refusal. I calculated and said thank God, I am not going to that guy. This guy was not smiling at all. The guy before me went to him, same short interview, didn’t even give room for long stories. Still before the other guys has finished their interview, he sent this second interviewee away with a refusal. Then he called for the next person on the queue. I was thinking whether to say I decline to be interviewed today but when I thought of the trouble to get this interview date, I decided to proceed (what will be will be).
I proceeded with prayers to God almighty asking for Grace of God because this VO na one chance. I remembered the guy thatshared his transcript here after he was denied. He said he went to one buka to eat good food and step it down with a cold malt (he broke his fast or so). I was already thinking of where I can do same because with this kind of VO, only GOD can help your case.
Here is the transcript.
Me: Good morning Sir.
VO: Please, can I have your passport?
Me: Yes, you can but before you do, I need to update you on some information on my DS-160 form(since the guy didn’t smile, I wiped off my smile too)
VO: Okay, I am listening but pass me your passport.
Me: (Handing over the passport) The initial plan was for me to travel with my family for holidays in August so we did a drop box but whilst the passport was at the embassy, my organisation informed me that I have to attend an urgent meeting in Texas. I immediately informed the embassy but got no replies to several mails I sent (VO nodded as though in agreement as he gazed at the screen). I even tried getting an expedited date to no avail. Based on this and future planned office itinerary , I will no longer be travelling with my family for the holidays as earlier planned.
VO: (Keeping a straight face) Okay. What was your reason for traveling to the states the last time.
Me: To witness the birth of my child and accompany my family back to Nigeria just the way I escorted them when they left Nigeria.
VO: And your wife stayed for 4 months?
Me: Noooooo , she stayed 3 months (counting on my fingers).
VO: How much did you spend?
Me: $.......... (I tried bringing out the proof of payments, zero balance, etc)
VO: (Seeing my big folder) No need to show me.(I equipped myself thanks to this thread)
Me: Okay (But I still brought it out and mentioned the cents to the earlier amount I quoted)
VO: What is the DOB of your child?
Me: DD MM YYYY
One of the men from the other boxes came to seek his counsel so he paused the mic and attended to him after excusing himself politely.
VO: What do you do?
Me: I am a …….professional with ABC company (well known organisation).
VO: How much do you earn?
Me: I earn NXXXXXX but before tax
VO: Before tax ? (looking slightly surprised but regained his straight face)
Me: Yes but after tax it comes to (VO cuts in)
VO: No need. (still not smiling. I think he doesn’t have the muscle for smiling)
VO: How long do you intend to stay during the Visit to the states?
Me: Meeting is for DD & DD of June but my office policy requires a day’s rest before the meeting and before return travel for proper rest so I will stay a maximum of 6days. Arrive on Monday and return on Saturday.
VO: Typed for about a minute (I expected to hear : I am sorry, bla bla)
VO: (Not smiling) Your visa has been approved, this paper explains……
Me: (Straight face) Thank you. (but inside me, I was dancing a mixture of awilo, makossa, shoki and dabbing. Infact I was doing back flips). As Ieft I could see the expression of shock on the face of the guards and those on the queue.(Sorry to say but that VO na complete error)
So I went to meet wifey who was on the queue outside and gave her a quick coaching on how to answer the VO. I told her to ensure she passes the message of me and her not travelling together as it is key to the success if the interview.
I really thank God because if not for God, with that kind of VO, forget it.

My precedents:
1. My travel history is very solid, my former job had to do with international travel so I have been to atleast 5 countries on every continent except Australia. A globe trotter with an average of over 12 international travels annually.
2. My last US visa was for child birth and was declared at that interview. Although I had previous US visas meant for professionals.
3. I have had no international travel after my trip to USA.
4. I am well articulated and was very composed (This one means nothing to the VO although I suspect a stammerer may be misconstrued to be lieing or thinking of lieing).

I wrote my precedents so you may understand the background behind the approval.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! We are waiting to read how your wife's own interview went too.

hurlexa:
Please i need a response from someone who might have had expericence with approving or denying a canada TRV at the VFS.. i applied with my wife and infant! Months after, we received a message that in reference of our application a decision has been made, and we need to come with our passport to finalize our application processing. We had gone again to sumbit our passport to them, but some staffs in there were congratulating us.. Please, does this actually mean we are approved for visa, and they are going to stamp it.. I guess, if we were refused they shouldn't have asked us to submit our passport.. plesse enlighten !

Congratulations

Graceinme:
I was really hoping to post my successful transcript here as I have read all post from part 1 till date and thoroughly prepared. All I keep seeing today was blue papers flying everywhere even the elderly pple, students going to study and couple with kids going for summer were not left out. Interview was for 8.30.

Me. Was even happy using d opportunity to place my doc well and ready for drilling after standing for like 40mins.
Vo. Okie pls can i have ur passport
Me. Handed it over with a smile
Vo. Can see you are going to Virginia, y are u going there.
Me. Am expecting [b]my first child [/b]and would love to have my baby in d US.
VO. How long will u be staying
ME. 8weeks, i booked a reservation with Bleep suite, would u like to see my bookings
VO. No I won't be needing that
VO. Have u travelled out of Nigeria
ME. Yes, i have been to the UK, Ghana and Rep of beniIn, was already bringing my old passport and he stretches to collect it. He went thru it and asked.
VO. Why were u in d UK
ME. Vacation and attended my cousins wedding, went further to tell him about Ghana trip that it was work related and Rep of benin
VO. That's Okie, what does your dh do
ME. He works with bleep telecoms network, manager bleep dept, i have his introduction letter and pay slips would u like to see.

ME. Yes, bringing them out. I also have my budget sheet would u want to see too
VO. No, how much do your have there.
ME. 14370 dollars for all expenses inclusive of 7310 dollars for my medical bills
VO. He went thru the payslip and acct statement. The acct statement is my dh statement as my sponsor with 6.3m naira reflecting his monthly salary of 477k also With his cooperative statement showing about 4m naira. No lump sum in the gtb statement just salary and rent received from tenants which isn't a lump sum.
VO. Am sorry blah blah, the blue paper showed up.

Note. I wasnt asked anything about my work, and i even tried telling him i have my bill from doctor and correspondence but he wasn't ready to see atall.
Pls gurus in the house am confused and devastated, thought I was going to aggressively get my visa as I was confident and well prepared. Meanwhile my dh 6months statement wasnt bulky, has just 4pages. Could this be the reason?
Pls is there any possibility of still getting a closer date? Are pple still cancelling appointment so closer date could pop up. And even expedite appointment these days isnt favourable���� pls do i have hope like this. Edd is mid July.

My dear nairalanders,
I applied for my first us visa in 2014 to have my first child. Denied.
Applied to have my second child this year in March (posted the transcript earlier). Denied again


Why did you answered that to have my first child in the USA instead of saying second child?? Is it your first or second child?? Because i can see you applied for my first us visa in 2014 to have my first child

Good Evening Nairaland,

There is an agent who did work permit visa for my friend to travel to Australia directly attached to a company in Australia. The class visa is 459. The agent also said the company will come at the airport to pick them up on there arrival day and also provide accommodation for them when they get there. Please how is that possible? Because to me i don't think this is real deal? Find the attached of the visa below.

Thanks
