Hello house, i have a feeling that mentioning sanctuary cities as destination in the US raises the VO's eye brow. this may not be 100% accurate though but can we pay attention and have a reasonable observation.

Congratulations. your interview was what time?

NO, i just pointed out where i felt the issue started from. you will need to consult wide on your next application

fpeter:
Should i have lied about where my husband is based? I don't understand.

The VO was not a wizard to have known your husband lives abroad, it was the information you supplied. i guess you did not prepare for this question of "how did your husband get there?" this your response is now in there computer, i guess you really need to work hard on the defence subsequently.

fpeter:
special thanks to everyone here.

Although i was denied today but i learnt a lot from this thread.
my transcript was very brief, window 8, male VO in Abuja.

ME- Political asylum bla bla bla
V.O- How long have you been married?
ME- XYZ number of years
V.O- how come you live apart and how did you meet him
ME- We met abroad, i am yet to join him...bla bla bla bla
V.O- Gives me my passport and green paper, discharges me.
ME- thank you.

ExpressBooking:
Thanks everyone on this thread,I really appreciated the advice and suggestions by all towards my interview today June 13th 2017. Though I was denied but it was fun adding that experience to life.

My transcript goes thus;
VO: Where are you going in the US
Me: New York
VO: What are going to do?
Me: Vacation
VO: What do you do?
Me: I am the Managing director of .... and we do car importation and sales from US
VO: Have you traveled out of Nigeria before?
Me: Not at all
VO: Do you have friends or family in the US
Me: Friends
VO: Do you intend to do any business in US?
Me: Well as an online buyer from IAA Auctions in US, I might take time out to visit two Auction locations in NY just for fun.
VO: How many cars have you imported from US?
Me: Over 60 cars this year alone
VO: How much do you intend to travel with on ur trip?
Me: about $10k
VO: I am sorry you are not approved for US Visa bla bla... and hands me the blue paper and my passport

Note: My passport is virgin. The lady was busy refusing people and I was praying on the queue that they shouldn't direct me to her and they did. Lessons learnt and experience acquired. I will try visiting UK before US again.

you almost got it! if only you knew that it is a taboo for a visitor to do business during vacation or holiday break. if it was purely business trip, its ok.

HOW MUCH LAST [quote author=omobolaji17 post=57336045][/quote]

[quote author=omobolaji17 post=57336113][/quote]HOW MUCH LAST?

KaptainAfrika:
I am of the opinion that you are qualified for visa at the discretion of the VO. You can improve this by having strong ties to your home country.
People with "VIRGIN PASSPORTS" have gotten US Visa's many times. But if you are exceedingly rich, you can travel anywhere you want to. Your choice.
(THIS IS THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION).

Save your money and build up your strong ties to Nigeria instead. No two ways about it.

yes, people get approved on virgin passport and i can tell you they have peculiar stories and they wont narate. more so, it depends on the mood of the the VO, and that is purely GRACE in action, and not everyone has it in equal measure.

Thank you for your kind prompt response, but what tie could be stronger than having a government agency job of about 10years experience and still counting , earning above 250k, married with children, a certified professional, having siblings and parent here in Nigeria,landed property enof, what more?

Dr9ce:
With this new biometrics, are applicants still required to provide their passport photographs at the VAC?

Good day house, please is there anyway i can check the available appointment days for the US embassy before paying the visa fees? if yes kindly supply me the link. i need urgent reply thanks.

even when your account balance can not take care of flight ticket, lodging and local transportation? it was GRACE in action sir, i tap into your GRACE ooo

EggPlant:
I did not use a sponsor. I am a medical doctor with a fair salary and I applied to write an exam in the U.K. I have a federal job and I'm currently undergoing postgraduate training. I only provided proof of all these with a comprehensive cover letter.

Oga, your case is a miracle, not everyone will experience this. DO NOT encourage people to waste application fees by using your kind of faith. by the way can you tell us more about your application circumstances, maybe you are sponsored? congrats.

EggPlant:
Got my passport today and my visa was approved(6 months multiple entry). Note that this is my first UK visa application, I have never travelled outside Nigeria and I only had 350k balance in my account. This is to encourage other people that your documentations are the most important things when applying for UK visa.

if you made upper, the canada will be your best bet.

Gcool2:

mjee:
I used paga to pay for uk visa fees. It was easy, I just upgraded the accout type to tier 3 (by submitting some documetation). To my surprise the rate they even used was 314 and the amount was debited from my naira account. You can check them out online.

I FUNDED REACTIVATED AND FUNDED MY DOM ACCOUNT WITH JUST A CALL TO A FRIEND I NEVER TOT OFF INITIALLY, IT WAS SO FAST THAN I TOT.,I CAN STILL ACCOMMODATE SOME MORE TRANSACTIONS

collinsfbi:
You can share it here so that others who are facing same problem will learn from it.

what other means bro, i dont have anyone around now. i have a Dom account but dormant, it will take a while to activate and request for dollar card.

ekpotek:
Use a dollar ATM card. If you do not have one too bad. Or ask someone with such a card to pay for you.

hello house good day. how can i pay visa fee of $113 while there is a limit of $100 per day. i have been trying with my card since. please any alternative way? thanks i need an urgent response.

have you ever seen a white man do magic? and you think is source of power lies in chemistry and physics texbook? shebi you have a copy of this things, why not use same to your advantage?. if it can happen among the white it will be common among blacks. you better wake up and cleave to your God. pray never for them to visit you.above all, keep quiet next time.

Akshow:
So what do we call this? Illiteracy? Ignorance? Mental illness? Mental slavery? Brainwashing? Or Over religiosity? . Cos honestly this is embarrassing. How can people believe in 2017, that humans can turn into cat?

A few hrs ago, similar news made front page about a woman turning to bird.. .. Duuh? I blame religious institutions that use "enemies and witches in ur family" lies to rob their gullible sheep. This is really disheartening. See the way they abused and battered up an old woman. may all of them never find peace. Useless brainwashed momfos

You are just a compulsive hypocrite making up assumptions.

slurryeye:
What's all these nonsense?

At this time and age, see what my people still believe in. This is 2017 where over 70% of Nigerian population has phone that has camera. They know how to use the camera for instagram, Snapchat and Facebook, but you will never see the video of the Cat or Bird before it turned to human. If you can't get the video, at least take the picture. If you can provide a video evidence of an animal in the act of turning into human being then you have open up a new field of science. We should stop all these useless conspiracy and uncivilized belief we Nigerians are too intelligent for this primitive thinking.

For those that will like to know my explanation for the event. I think the woman is probably an elderly woman abandon by family and rejected by society, she was probably depressed and mentally unstable. Since she was brought up in society where committing suicide is a big sin, she couldn't end her life when she still has mental capacity over her life. Now that her situation has degraded beyond a point where she has mental cognizance of herself, and still no family or government to help. She might have been crawling on her four limbs believing she is a cat (you believe anything when you are mentally deranged). Dressed in black, a young boy seeing the poor famished lady crawling might have thought he has seen a cat and stoned her in the forehead. With the impact of the stone on her forehead, she cried out of agony and the boy thinks he stoned a cat and turned to old woman

Thank you God bless.

You can leave your income figure in Naira but bear in mind that the ECO will use the prevailing exchange rate of the day at https://www.oanda.com/currency/converter/ to convert it. you can use the exchange rate on oanda as a guide.
