Travel / Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by opsy4real1: 1:33pm On Oct 08, 2012
[quote thank u boss. It was a general issue for quite sometime and they claimed d delays was due to d backlog of application during da fuel subsidy strike frm january. Then i read in their (south africa high commision)july news that processin of visa time has been reviewd to 6-10 working days but that they now only accepts 200 applications per day. I actualy wanted to find out if sum1 applied afta dat period at lagos and if they truly maintained what they claim regard the 6-10 working days secauthor=collinsfbi]

I know of people with virgin passport who applied and get their visa less than 15 days recently. As for your February application, i think something is wrong somewhere. Before you re-apply check yourself and the documents you intend to submit.

Hmmm it wasnt really a gud day for me. I was interviewed by da guy in da 1st cubicle near da entry/exit door. I wished i was interviewed by da guy at the last end as he approved literally all his interviewee's visa while i was there. I was denied on family tie issue. I wasnt married. Anyway I hope to reapply by late Nov. as married by then. And how much did u get the date for?
ayobj:

got it earlier in the month.
hope your interview went well too?
it was a good day for applicants generally.

Lucky you! Congratulations on ur successful turn out...i also attended interview that same day as you. So u got interview appointment date on that same day?
ayobj: I wish to share my own interview experience for the benefit of all.
I got an appointment through a tout at walter carrington for the 26th of september,2012.
We left home at 5am for a 9:30am appointment.
We got to the embassy before 8am.
Me and my wife were the applicants.

Outside the embassy were various sorts of people;hangers on,hustlers,drivers,applicants,visa agents.
One visa agent said he could arrange a USA visa for someone ,non appearance fee-1 million naira.
We were finally called in some minutes to 10am.
Line was long and ardous.I had not eaten.
Bought an apple and grabbed a bite.
Finally,we made it inside the consulate.
Submitted our passport and our receipts at window 11.
Later,we were thumprinted.
Window 1 was vicious,denied a lot of people.
Window 2 was great,noticed he gave some well dressed women with no travel experience except dubai.
Finally,we got to seen the visa officer at window 7
I have been to the US one(short stay B1/B2 visa) and the UK 3ce.My wife had been to the UK only once.

VO:facing my wife,have you ever been to the US.
Mama:No!
VO: you were at the conference last year,is it the same conference.
Me:yes!
Wanted to give him a letter of invitation.he said no!
V0:how many days did you stay?
Me: 12 days.
VO:maam,are you also a specialist medical doctor
Maam: NO.
VO: where do you work and what do you do?
Maam: admin officer,bla bla bla.
@..............teaching hospital
VO: do you have any kids?
Me:3.
VOsadtears the green ticket)
Pick up your visa in lekki next week.
No document was seen or requested for!!!
We had a nylon bag full of documents-academic,marraige,birth certificates,landed property,statement of account printed 3 weeks earlier.

So that's the story.Hope someone picked something useful.

@topsyking, its not ur broda's fault, just that ur broda didnt wanna tell lies but come up wit truth while he hoped he could be lucky..alas, luck ran out of him for being truthful. However, ur brother just learnt a obvious lesson that the consular prefers to be told lies than the truth. By November when I reapply, I must have been married. Lol. Thank u bro!

thank you Fastlink... Let me say this and advice on it.
Though I was advised by some friends and travel consultant to claim as married in my application that i'm 90%likely to be refused as i nid to prove a family tie but i disagree that if claiming what is not wil earn me the visa and in future would av negative effect i prefered to be refused. Though I didnt select 'single' unda d marital status but i rather chose 'others' and i explained under it as'engaged to miss.Bleep yyy ' she is my fiancee and i guess that wuld give a light tie to nigeria in as much as my fiancee is still in Nigeria. ..Now i want to ask this question. though we aint planning wedding yet cos she is still in 300level at the university, i'm thinkin of re-applying and appearing at the embassy with her by November toward Xmas holiday in u.s.a. I'm thinking of still claim that 'engaged to her' and under her form she'l claim 'engaged to me' . She is a 300l student of one of the universities and i think the letters frm her schl indicating her studentship wil help cos def' she's in 300L, and tied back to schl and once that is established, then i assume they wud also think am tied to home to her while we claim to get wedded nxt year end wen she complete her studies. Thanks and hope that sounds good.
Am also thinking of visiting S.A for one week before re-applying hoping that too wil help.AST-LINK:

Hello,

Hope you'll bw able to defend whatever document you're presenting, you'd be surprised to have the VO asked you about your job and what benefit your trip would bring to your company.
why can't you sponsor yourself instead of your company and how much you have in your account and your monthly income.

To be honest with you, it won't be easy since you are still single and don't have a very good job.
Nevertheless, with good packaging, you'd get the Visa but misrepresentation has it's own consequencies if caught.

Many thanx but am actually sponsoring myself on a week tour visit to the U.S. I'm applying to spend part of my leave term there which is 2wks approved as will be stated in the letter of introduction as Accounts Officer. I'm using hotel reservation and Like 700k in account and 120k as monthly salary.
N,b and I got a business conference and expo ticket to hold here in nigeria 2 wks after my supposed tour term as attendee to represent the enterprise i work with. I guess that'l help too and such wud be indicated in the introductn letter. Or whats ur take on that too? Cos am trying see to get paperwork done properly b4 interview. Thx

You said 'with good packaging' i'll get my visa. PLEASE, guide me in ensuring good packaging.lol cos I cant wait to get my visa

Thanks Vicjustice , I was refused in 2008 during when the BHC had not introduced the 10year ban on doubtful documents. The ban came into effect in 2009 while I was refused in 2008. Does that mean that I have been affected despite that I was refused before the introduction of the ban? Please let me learn. Thx

Vicjustice: You had the chance when you applied for the visa, I mean, you could have asked them when you were being handed the refusal letter. Now, you can't have that opportunity except when you apply for the visa again. But like I explained, you know the answer yourself

Ok regards the tax clearance, will get it done. I'm still single and yet to acquire any property. Can I arrange a back up letter of consent and recomendatiön frm my fiancee though we are not planning any wedding for now. I have a 2week travel experience to a part of asia last year. Hope that'll help. Again, hope the enterprise thing is okay if stamped or shud I look for a 'Ltd' cover up? I do not have my own biz. Thanx always [uote author=suxes2005]

The consular is wise, he or she might easily
sight the enterprise thing...

seal or stamp will do.

if you're working you're suppose to be paying tax!

are you married or single? got a biz of ur own here?
got a house built by you?

@FASTLINK and others, pls my interview is soon to come up and i need to tidy things properly before appearing. My uncle wants to cover we up with an appointment letter and letter of introduction as his employee but the business name is registered as ENTERPRISE Is it worthy and recognised at the embassy? Also he doesnt have the company seal and i think it should reflect on the documents he's giving especially on the appointment letter. He can only have them stamped. Please does it make sense? 3)Do I necesarily need tax clearance cos am sponsoring myself as a tourist for 1 week. .4) how do I foster a perfect home ties ? Thanx

Ok then, thanks but how do i get to ask them? Email, phone call or by what way?thx
Vicjustice: Unless you specifically ask them, Visa Officers are not obliged to tell you whether you are banned or not: If your visa application was refused, and the reason (or part of the reasons) is on the basis of deceitful attempt etc, then, you are under a ban 100%.
Don't be deceived by the "rights of appeal" you would still be given that right due to the category of visa that you applied for: but nothing can over-turn a ban unless the embassy was wrong in misjudging your documents to be fake etc.Well, should know by yourself whether you were caught with deceit

Hi FASTLINK! Thank u for ur tireless efforts in guiding us the right path. One thing is ur commitments and efforts shall nt be in vain. May God reward u. May I thank u for d last advice u gave, i've been able to replace the DS 160 code wit a new one with the date unaffected. But NOW I wanna ask one more question which i hope u sure'l be able to tell exactly. The questn is= After updating my profile wit the new code, i wish and tried to see if i could reschedule my interview date by bringing it earlier than it is. I clicked on 'reschedule appointment' hoping it'l bring up d appointment calender and choose a new date earlier dan date i currently have .but the system notified I nid to cancel d current appointment before i can reschedule. But wat i feared was if i cancel at that stage, i might nt get a date until anoda 3months and mite av to start counting months again as my current interview date was booked since May. Imagine! Now i av my appointment for early october, and i wish if its possible to get anoda date for say early or mid september if i cancel and reschedule without giving me a far date dan wat i already have. Thx.
