TravelRe: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by merryberry(f): 12:56am On Dec 17, 2016
Good morning Nairalanders! I'm posting this at this hour because this is the time I have finally gotten time to myself. It has been a hectic day! I have read this thread over and over and I may have asked a few questions 3 years ago. This place I must say had very insightful information. Very proud of what you guys are doing and welldone.
First off let me start with my profile

I am 26year old lady.
First degree in the UK
Works at one of the Big 4 consulting Firms
Refused visa to the US twice (First time when I was about 10, second time in 2011 when I was studying in the UK)
Parents are American Citizens now.( just got their citizenship last year )
Big brother is an American by work
I don't have an immigrant petition
I was at the embassy today (16th) for my visa interview and the questions asked were not the ones I prepared for as per the frequent ones that appear here on nairaland.
The interview is as follows

Vo: Your Passport pls
Me: pass my passport
Vo: why are you going to America
Me: to spend Christmas with my parents and brother
Vo: your brother? I he a US citizen?
Me: yes he is
Vo: how did he get his citizenship
Me: through work
Vo: oh ok he got h1 blah blah
Me: I'm not sure exactly what visa category it was or he transitioned to
Vo: so you work as an accountant
Me : (correcting him) auditor
Vo: asks a lot of accounting questions I answer
Vo: how is it working in your company
Me: very stressful the job is demanding but you learn a lot.
Vo: so have you thought of applying to one of the offices in the US since your company has presence there
Me : no I haven't thought of doing that and I don't intend to
Vo: I'm going to issue you your visa
Hands me white paper.
My transcript is this long because I really want people to learn from it. I honestly know it's God's favour. I mean look at my profile. Infact my interview date was so close to my travel date, did interview 16th, intending to travel on the 21/22. Thank you everyone that has contributed meaningfully to this thread with questions and answers, helping to provide insights. Anyways I wish you guys the best and happy holidays.
Let me go and spend Christmas with my parents. I would be back!❤️❤️❤️

TravelRe: Usa Visit Visa by merryberry(f): 7:08am On Oct 20, 2014
Good afternoon VO and fellow nairalanders, I have a couple of questions.... I am currently thinking of applying for US non-immigrant visa for December...i schooled in the UK and I am currently in Nigeria for my NYSC batch B( so finishing in August next year), I was wondering for strong ties as a young person can I use a letter from Nysc secretariat and my local govt and primary place of assignment which is another local govt as proof that I wi be returning after my stay? Another thing is my parents live in America as they are green card holders, my brother too works as the VP for Capital One( credit card company) in the US, I'm mentioning these things because I feel I have stronger ties in the US than I have in Nigeria, but will my NYSC be enough to show that I will be returning after my visit as I plan to visit my father who just went through major surgery? What other strong ties can I present? Pls I need help!!! Thank you guys! And God bless as you reply this long message

I (MERRY BERRY ) IS NOT A boy o! i am a lady. thanks anyways Kpolli. Yvete biko help a sister!
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part3 by merryberry(f): 3:39pm On Feb 06, 2013
kpolli: Thanks for the response Kpolli,. I am not a permanent resident. I just schooled here. But my visa is still valid. So I was wondering if I can apply from here instead of going back to Nij. I have done my GMAT. And I am looking to do an MBA or any business related course. Do u know any one that can help with interview tips? Thanks!.
Except ur a perm resident, you would most likely have to be interviewed in Naija.... Then you would need to show them you really are going to study, about convincing them ur coming back (if they ask) just say you dream of working with fed govt back home in order to blah blah blah (Yvete is the master of this part).... But first work on ur gaining admission, hope you have done GRE or GMAT?

Hi everyone!!!
I am planning to go for a masters program in either Canada or USA. Though i have started the applying to the schools.
i have a few questions to ask as i am applying by myself but i just finished my Undergrad in the UK and I am still in the UK so i am hoping to apply for VISA from here(UK)
Pls what's the best way of convincing them(US EMBASSY)that i would be back in Naija after my studies? AND can you people give me hints and tips on the interview questions?
i have applied for visiting visa to the US and i had been rejected before...

My parents are in the states and i feel USA embassy would think my plans for the masters in their country is to hook up with my family there(which is also part of my plan sha ooo).

I need experienced advice please.... THANK YOU
Just scared cuz i dont want to be rejected
