@legitbachelor,what do you know about this new health insurance bill that’s about to be passed on the 3rd of next month,would people like us be affected and do you have an idea of how much the requirement is

From what I just read,it will not affect K1 visa applicants.K1 visa is not a direct immigrant visa,but for immigrant visa e.g family related like the ones for spouses,parents and siblings are gonna be affected by the new policy.K1 visa applicants will still adjust their status after marriage to their US fiance/fiancee before they can attain immigrant status.
For those us that we are going for interview soon,let us continue to pray for favour during our interviews.Trump and his policies are targeted at reducing the number of immigrants coming to America.

I was denied u.s student visa 3times despite the fact that I even paid my school fees.(2000-2004)
So After my BSc I was like let me try again. So I applied for my Msc in a Canadian university. This time I used the foremost agency then for Canadian school’s (Maple) . I was denied again. Then I said ok, I guess I”d try the u.k tho I never liked the u.k. So I applied for MSc in Robert Gordon university, I still used one of the Agencies.
This one was suppose to be smooth. I went to Ikeja to collect my passport with confidence. I was shocked , I wasn’t only denied the visa but was given a 10year Ban(

I was still bent on leaving the country, So the agency said they were very sorry, They can still help. They said they help me go to Dubai to a British university. (Sussex) I was like I don’t mind .
The university said I can’t come because I already have a 10yrs ban . It didn’t make sense , even Dubai that everyone goes to I couldn’t go. It was devastating
So I just encouraged myself. I decided to stay put in Nigeria. I stayed back in Abuja after my Service at CBN Abuja.
Then in 2012, my childhood friend who has been in the states , actually I was suppose to go to the same university he went to. He told me about his Wife’s bestie(she American) . I was skeptical. I said thank you, I am not interested, I didn’t want to go through that ordeal again after failing too many times.
Then he sent me her picture (smiles) I was like ok. So we stated dating, my Wife(then Girlfriend) cAme to Nigeria twice before I decided to try the K1 visa. The rest they say is history.

I remember Nairaland helped me during the process, there was a Visa Officer from the u.s embassy that was very very helpful. I relocated to the u.s Nov 1 2014.
Today I am a u.s citizen and by the Grace and mercies of God me and my family doing great.

I just want encourage someone here, Don’t give up. You will get that visa and flourish in what your heart desires.
Kudos to the guys that created this thread.
I wish everyone on this forum the best.
God bless you all.

No. Gave me the form and I signed and returned back to the CO. Then gave the two white forms. Which I sent to our lawyer for clarification.

I guess the form is a new addition.

For those preparing for interview, A tip that I think helped, look at the interviewer's eyeballs while taking the oath and with all sincerity. I'm not sure I was able to look at his eyeballs after the oath, was too busy concentrating on answering the questions. lol
If you can look throughout,double plus for you.

Noted. Thanks for the advice.
