Well, I can not answer the bolded .but I know that they were both abducted sometimes last year by some assailants and thier belongings stolen and I saw police report and affidavit deposed to in respect of that .

What do you think can be done now sir ?

I think your uncle should chill for now

Unfortunately that embassy wont listen to any explanation or check no documents.

He should reapply after 2yrs.......... my opinion thou!

Over to the gurus in the house, your suggestion is needed

ViceChief:
well i think the issue is with the passport theft story, not the visa misuse by the children. [[b]b]Adjustments of status from Visitor to Student status is very [/b]lega[/b]l.

Seriously I didn't know about the bolded o.
Thx

Kishkosh:
Guys . My uncle has a challenge . He's a very frequent traveller , he has been to almost all continents courtesy his activeness as a Rotarian.
Him, his wife and two children age 17 and 19 respectively got thier visit visa in 2017 and when they went. The children stayed back and changed thier status to student status .

Parents passport got lost due to theft [/b]and the father and mother went for interview just this morning and were refused.

[b]In the transcript of the interview , my uncle (father) said he perceived that the reason for thier refusal was because the kids changed thier status during thier visit because that was the major question asked by the VO

And they were given a pink paper which state that they haven't shown enough home ties according to Section 214(b) of US immgration and Nationality Act. Which I think is generic.

Pls, if this is true ,how can it be tackled .

Are you very sure both passports got lost at the same time?

Is this not a cooked up story by your uncle......

It will takes a grace to get another US visa cos the VO doubt if the their passport is truly lost and plus visa misused by children.

Please I will need a professional advice on next step to take....
How soon can I reaaply again as the same program is coming up by November 2019?
How can I treat the issue of travel History? please house I will really appreciate your sincere opinions.Thank you so much and God bless...

please to the learned and elders here i'd need someone to put me through about the job hunt there in UAE thanks in advance.

Are you for real

Education isn't encouraging here, so quitting school is the solution.......

Some youths sef

OmoBendel24:
Seyewest my broda, I dey my guy. Many greetings

@Obinoscopy; hats doffed!

Oluayebenz; you seem to be on "steroid" oh, me likey, good one.... That Olodo is everywhere writing rubbish agai, and I like your responses. Tor!

Chairman..... I hail o

Obinoscopy:
Yes I am 100%. I have friends who work with the Department of Homeland Security. One thing I notice about them is their humility. And you lack that virtue. I even doubt if you have complete papers in the States.

Free that guy,,, he's just trying to be relevant.......

He doesn't sound like an American.

Let him keep fooling around!

123JohnF:
Maybe to you. Nigerian English mostly is very bad. How many Americans did you meet and from how many states, races and nationalities? Do you know we have many communities who only speak their native language, people from Europe, Latin America, China, etc. and they don't speak any English. We have many government services in Spanish and Russian. Learn a little about America or come here and see me face to face and we will see how bad is your pidgin accent. Lol!

Who is even talking about your English, you even know you suck.......

Check your background very well, u are a refugee !

jhoci:
I applied for a Canadian visa while I was in US last year and was approved. I stated that I was visiting the US and also included my ticket for my trip back to Nigeria. This was even while my PR application was ongoing.

I concur

Do you travel to the state with b1b2 visa?

123JohnF:
Lol, apply for a tourist visa and see 90% rejected if they have family, friends, fiance(e) in US. All CO sees is you have somebody in US to help you to stay and overstay and maybe to fix your status being already there. Go and try. All I say how our embassy works.

Do you wanna meet your BF or GF, go to Nigeria and meet there or Barbados, etc. as many Nigerians do.

But you are welcome to apply and to waste your money in our embassy. Thank you very much for attacking me.

Who is attacking you.

You sound like u are just trying to be relevant cos u have no point.....

Are you an American? You dont even sound like one

123JohnF:
Not true. The tourist visa is NOT for dating.

it would foolish to use K1 visa for to stay only because K1 is a long and expensive process. I said nobody is forcing a K1 fiance(e) to marry. Some stay 90 days and don't like what they see going back to their country. It's not a crime not marrying, it is a free will, you marry or not.

Do you even know anything about visit visa?

I've seen who applied for US visit visa and the main purpose of the trip is to visit her boyfriend, the invitee clearly wrote it on the invitation letter that he will be responsible for the expenses, thou the lady has a very good tie and travel history.......

Pls stop misleading people, you can apply for a visiting visa to meet your boyfriend /girlfriend....

Why will u apply for k1 visa when u are not even fully ready to marry

sistaj:
Don't understand the question how is it possible. She should apply for the visa class she wishes to apply normally saying where is applying from as there is a place on the form it is asked.She will fill in temporary resident in the space provided for that when asked for residency status and for citizenship Nigeria. She will fill her Canadian address where she is staying now.

That is not true......

She will be automatically rejected.

You can't apply for any visa as a visitor in any foreign country..... It can only be done on different visa categories not on visit visa

sistaj:
This is not true.She can apply.

Can you enlighten us pls?

How is it possible ?

1mole1:
Thanks. My fear is being denied applying from Canada or Nigeria. That's why I want to know where I'm likely to be given the visa before applying

Don't just apply on getting to Canada to avoid denied....

Apply when you got a job, give time like 3months and apply, you still need to show a little tie to Canada, remember you still hold a green passport

emadamysy:
Total savings is over 2m. That is [b]mutual funds , fixed deposits a[/b]nd savings .

I presented the 3 to them.

Are you saying that i should move all money to one account and apply.

Budget for the trip was 423k

Those are investment deposits which is not readily available for your trip thou it still stand as tie make sure you submit the Certificates on your next reapplication.

Liquidate some of your mutual fund into your savings account so has to have a good closing balance, submit more meaningful documents, show them more tie and apply

emadamysy:
closing account balance was 324k

That closing balance wont fly at all..... too low

missjack:
No travel history

I will advice you free that embassy for now, try some Asian countries to build your travel history

EMMAACHILE:
Your best bet is using a certified agent and also looking out for work visa.
There is one currently for home care givers in Canada but there are requirements to get there.

And Canadian embassy will issue work visa for that?

missjack:
Hi, kudos to everyone here. U guys are doing an amazing job!

Pls i have few questions to ask in respect of the b1/b2 form:

1. I just completed my NYSC October last year and I am yet to secure a job. In the form, what will I fill my occupation? Is there a NIL option?

2. About the current, and previous employment, will I have to write about my NYSC ppa and my internship during my course of study as that is the only employment history I have.

3. My mum will be sponsoring my trip and she has a business of her own. Is there a total balance she must have withinin the last six month?

4. What is the next available appointment date I can get?
This will help me fill the itenary/ travel plans option

PS: my uncle invited me for the fall season and I will stay with him throughout the visit.

Thanks in advance for ur prompt response

Visa officer will definitely frown at this...... @the bolded

Any travel history ?

kkokoma:
Good day, please has anyone used EgyptAir to Toronto from Lagos? I want to know because they seem to offer the cheapest fare but i do not know about their services, especially in terms of reliability

Egypt Air is sweet not bad at all

cnonyechi:
Meaning did u read d story at all. My dear he went to d UK in d 70s all his children are bonafide British citizens but like someone said life is not always as green as we think it is over there. There are many Nigerians in d UK and US who r practically living from hand to mouth there whereas web they where in Nigeria they where boyant while there are the ones who are doing real good and there are also the ones who are doing crime to meet up

You like arguing sha......
Investigate on those arguing with you, I'm sure none of them as ever traveled outside the shore of Nigeria..... They all depend on internet, seeing beautiful pictures on Facebook...... You get muscle sha.....

OP my uncle bought a house in 6months, some dont even know what is called mortgage
OP my cousin is there making 5k usd every month.
As if is that easy.....

Too many wrong info plenty for dis thread, I just decided to kept mute not quoting anyone

nnamdi16:
You can never compare US (America) with UAE (Arab), if not for anything the law in US is more friendly than that of the Arabs

Who's comparing both countries now?

RealityShot:
good luck..
Visit dubizzle, search for "walk-in interview" and try to attend 5 walk-in interviews this week.

God will help you get a suitable job.

my friend, you are very correct.

All those felas have disappeared!

This abroad thing shaa...

Thank you man.

thank you for sharing. That was a very near miss!
Not worth leaving my room and job where I am cherished.

I would rather join politics now...except I see free money to go and try my luck.
As for my savings... Let it be paying my house rent as usual..instead of dashing it to airline and embassy etc.

Thank you again and God bless you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


On that note... I say goodbye to you all on this thread.
It's been 6 months of careful study here.

Conclusion : this is a huge gamble that should be done with spare money.

Never give up..........

Even USA and Canada where folks are running too sef have their downsides.

Many immigrants are living a miserable life there while some are making it big......

NEVER GIVE UP

Some people have transcripts to share but they are trying to avoid attacks and insults.......

Godbpraised:
you can exist me out forcefully sir. as you think i am one of those who like sweat talking people. I deal with facts. i analyze things, i never said the guy should not move. but he should weigh his options. i am till discovering stuffs here in canada, is canada heaven nahhhhhhhhh, is their free money in canada naaaaahhhhhh, so i am not painting that picture, if you want to paint that picture go ahead men.

God Bless You and your Entire Generation.
People only think of the money equivalent when converted into naira but they forget to mention the quality of life, food and all that makes the heart merry with hope when you feed your eyes with pleasant sights all around you in the UAE just to mention.
The Jobs sef no even reach our people as the Filipinos, Indians and Pakistanis are preferred.
Graduates with Masters here in Nigeria are still looking for 50 to 100k jobs with zero incentives.
Abeg who get legit way make he move, save up as much as you can and have a plan to get a certificate course in the UAE then your cv can be pleasant to your prospective employer Seeing that you have been certified for that position.
NB.... Our certificate here in naija isn't recognised in the UAE....who can afford a professional course should use that to get a good paying job in the UAE.
Even in Nigeria, money still can't buy comfort.
What we see as luxury in naija is just comfortable living in the UAE.
The lifts in the local markets have got aircons in them in UAE
2019 MODEL OF CARS ARE USED AS TAXIS
METRO BUS ARE LIKE AIRPLANES MOVING ON LAND � ... Who never go no go know.

At the bolded .... are you exaggerating ?
