Revoked? Don't think so, maybe cancelled (IMO)

BOmum:
Ah breaking news:

A former colleague just called to say her visa was revoked.She has travelled for vacation with it 3 times and has never given birth before in the US.She sent a change of intent mail even after using the visa for vacation 3 times and visa was revoked....

Stay woke guys....

Then apply for VOA for her

streetwise2015:
@ozymes She is an American Citizen and Holds an American Passport

In case you don't know , if you do Dropbox,they will be stamped "canceled without prejudice" or "canceled with prejudice" depending on the way the existing visa was used.

emeldamicheals:
Hello family, please, my cousin and her family wants to renew their b1/b2 visa. The visa is still valid till August though but they wanna renew it. In case they get denied. Will the formal one still be valid?

Very gullible!

Killingmesoftly:
Hello house. I need comments on these issues please. My sister in-law was assiting her younger brother to re-apply for UK visa and just yesterday a friend of my husband came to our house and from one talk to the other, we started talking of UK visa, so I mentioned about my sister in-law, how she was trying to reapply a visa for younger brother, the man started gisting me how he got his visa in 2012. He said that someone assisted him, he just went to Abuja with his documents and passport and was interviewed, in few weeks he got his passport with visa. I was very surprised, do tourist visa applicant go for interview ? He even said that most documents were fake but ended up getting it. He just said the man that helped him knows pple at the Embassy, I was so confused about his talk. Please are they some people that go through interview for tourist visa here in Nigeria? Is it in Nigeria that they put the visa sticker? He even gave me the connection of the guy for my sister in-law to use him, i called my sister in-law and linked her with the guy and he said he will assist but we are scared and beside I av not heard about Interview for tourist visa. So sorry for the long write up.

@ streetwise,what passport is she holding?

streetwise2015:
Good evening Nairalanders....A friend is coming from the USA to Visit me in Nigeria...Does she need a Visa to Visit me in Nigeria?...Thank you

No further comment from me. I am tempted to deduce that you were advised to stay back to have your baby. How did you pay your bills? If yes, does it mean you were fully prepared for it?........Complicated pregnancy I believe is very expensive to handle in the US.

Starmate:
I was 6month and I stay for 5months.
How long were you in the US before giving birth?(I just came in then two weeks later I stayed have complications

Responses to q1 and q2 are still outstanding

Starmate:
.
No I was not pregnant and I came for vacation n that was what I told the poe but i started having complications along the line

1.How long were you in the US before giving birth?
2.How many weeks was the pregnancy before you gave birth?
3.Did you declare at the POE to the CBP officer that you were pregnant?
4.Were you pregnant during your visa interview?

Starmate:
Hello Good day mamas,pls I need help.I went to us for a holiday n for. Baby's shopping because I was pregnant but I ended up have complications so I give birth at us and I never knew about the charge of intent and my interview is coming up next week, pls advice me on what to do. thanks

Egwuleke:
Good day gurus in the house! pls I have a question that needs urgent answer because am confused right now.

I am a fresh graduate who just completed NYSC last year December and currently have no job yet.

My uncle says he wants me to come to United States this year and he wants to use his best friend's wedding coming up in june as a medium to bring me over. Again, he told me that he would be getting his citizenship by december this year and he said when he finally gets it, he can use the medium and file for me next year only if I can wait till then.

My problem now is that I really want to try that of his best friend's wedding coming up in June since am not even sure he might get the citizenship by this year as proposed and the wedding will still pass me by.

Meanwhile, I have no major traveling experience, I have only been to South Africa and Ghana all my life and again I have no major means of income and no job yet.

Pls help me in this situation, do I stand any chance with that wedding invitation or should I just relax and wait for my uncle to acquire his citizenship first and which one of the two means do I stand a good chance?
Again, the plan is that I will stay back in United States and my visiting visa status changed.

I am really confused and it's affecting me day by day because I don't want to make any mistake.

You will go far in life with this secret! That is the charm. Just ask yourself, what do you want? whatever conviction you allow your mind to settle for is what you get! Salam!

groovychik:
Again, I was not asked for Bank statement but my friend was asked for her's. Do not carry oluwole statement, they have people designated to scrutinise and banks on speed dial. Oluwole will get you a lifetime ban. My friend has less than 200k in her statement, her pay slip showed she could comfortably afford her trip and she was issued a visa. Do not let anyone discourage you from applying as long as you have genuine intentions. I left this forum for almost 5 days before my interview cos I did not want any negativity. I had positive vibes before my interview and it paid off. Interview day I zoned out voices and could only see people rejected without hearing their responses. Positivity and prayers always works.

Are you employed? if yes: Letter of Introduction stating permission to be off duty, pay slips, statement of account, anything that you might ask if you were the one interviewing another person for Visitors visa

abiolagenius:
How do i know what Extra documents will be asked for pls? Apart from my int passport, Invitation letter, Ds Form , visa reciept and appointment confirmation slip... i'm going to attend my cousin's Graduation in May
Ps: from most people's interview receipt here they didn't ask for more documents than i stated it was more of a conversationation stuff than documents..

But please i will like to know if u feel more documents may be required i await your response..

Oga please in your own interest, go with whatever document you think might be asked for in the course of your interview..........Or don't you want the Visa?

abiolagenius:
Ok thanks sir.. I was asking because somebody was telling me i need to go with office leave permission, bank statements, office salary pay roll, office id card and i was like all these stress when i never read where dem ask person for am for this Thread..

All yes!

abiolagenius:
Hello pls i need your Response guys..

What is your expectation for this US Visa interview please?

richfaxy:
I read in a post that someone was initially given the visa but later denied simply because Shengen had denied him visa

Just listen to advice, You really need it.

gimakon:
Thank you sir. or rather madam.
I know where it is, and I just like to make myself happy than provoking myself over a denied visa. Continue listening to me when I am here laughing my ass out.
I bought KFC, 2 in one, come join me.

Neeta02:
Hello house! I had my interview yesterday in Abuja, but unfortunately I didn’t get it. Your thoughts were right. The 3months stay spoilt it I guess. So many families/individuals were given pink paper yesterday. I wasn’t scared though, I was hopeful
Here goes my transcript.

VO: Good morning
Me: Hello good morning (with a smiling face)
VO: can I have your passport?
Me: (hands passport over to her)
VO: have you traveled before?
Me: no, never had a reason to travel outside Nigeria
VO: So why are you going to Ohio?
Me: I’m going to visit fam; my sis, her hubby & their 2 kids. I want to go spend time with them
VO: I can see you want to stay for 3months
Me: no please, that was a mistake on my path while I was filling the form
VO: so how long do you intend to stay?
Me: I would like to stay for 4weeks
VO: ok, what do you do?
Me: I’m a business person, I import ... from China & Vietnam & sell here in Nigeria. I also sell... here...
(She listened carefully & was nodding)
VO: ok. Are you married?
Me: no, but I’m taking care of my dad here, he has ...(at this point I wasn’t audible)
VO: (nodded then brought out the pink paper & my passport) sorry you are not qualified blablabla

I felt bad, like my world became dark at that instant. But yeah! I’ve gotten the experience, I made silly mistakes while filling the form & I guess that affected me. Next time will be better.

Also, my dad reapplied through Dropbox, but he was told to reschedule for interview when he picked his passport yesterday at dhl office. So my question is this, is there a time frame to which he can reschedule or at anytime? Also if he goes for the interview, he needs someone there with him because he has hearing difficulty, so we’re thinking I apply again then book appointment the same day with my dad so that I can assist him.

[b]I’ll get an employment letter from my uncle to show that I’m an employee in his company, that means I now have a job added to my business.

That is FRAUD for God's sake! Just stop thinking about it.

@Seyewest. You nailed it!

seyewest:
Sorry to barge into your conversation... I think the purpose of Interview itself is for ''Credibility'' of your claim in the form you filled.

Which location in the US do you intend to travel to?

cve90:
Hello guys, great thread, please my interview is coming up next two weeks, am going for a conference in the USA, but I haven't traveled anywhere, I'm also single, please how do I handle the travel question? Thanks

Feeling your pains............My bid of 15% pa for 364 days failed for the PMA of 13th February 2019. The stop rate was 14.95% pa. I had to make do with 14,6% pa for 363 days at the secondary market with Fidelity bank Plc next day after the PMA disappointment.

Akin3891:
Settled for 13.9 -363days with Firstbank this morning, waiting till March 13 will cost me dearly, besides stop rate for upcoming auctions might not be more than 14.2 as most banks failed in their 364 days bids, hence those funds will try to find their way back in next primary which i think cld drop rate further. Gosh, i cant believe i settled for 13.9 when i have been eyeing 14.8, i just lost 500k plus, pretty bad. Not happy. Good luck to everyone , see u nxt year March .God willing

No sweat

Hmebaze:
You are are correct no doubt but there are also some cost cutting Modes you might not know on this, Hotels close to Central Area are more that his said Budget. Dont forget that the distance from LUGBE to US Embassy isnt more than 30 mins no matter how bad the traffic is, Unless the President is passing. I stayed in LUGBE when i went to the Embassy cos I have a friend who stays around LUGBE and yes i stayed small Hotel In His Estate, NEAT of course and had a 7:30 appointment and got to the Embassy before 7am, with less than 1500,after the Interview i caught my flight out of town same day, infact i got a cab to the airport from there for abut 800 or so. Yes i am sure of what i am advising him and all this happened in January this year and good thing is i got the VISA

Lugbe axis to Central Area for interview. How about if the interview is in the morning, have you considered possible holdup around Lugbe to City Gate? let him use booking.com to check for hotels around that vicinity and choose according to prices. Excepts he drives.

Hmebaze:
look for anywhere in Airport Road around LUGBE axis, im sure you would get one,

what would you be doing in the US for 6 weeks?

AdetonaDami:
Please is 6weeks reasonable for a visiting visa

Yes and attach all the requirements. PM me if you need further assistance. Stay blessed

Oleayo22:
Should I resend the email again or wait till the week am meant to travel. W
What do you think?

That is not normal, please.

Oleayo22:
@KennyMKO, @Chanbaby @ozymes
Please could you share the approval letter you got after you applied for visa on arrival here.
I got a response of them acknowledging my application but was told to visit nearest Nigerian embassy to apply for visa.
Am meant to travel in 2weeks time. Please help.

Interviews are not cast on stone------It is a simple conversation and it is best if you could gently and respectfully explain things to VOs

gimakon:
No offence, you seen someone who got his visa that way? Just asking.
