Hi all, feel I should share my Poe experience not in d spirit of giving back but for the purpose of those who cast aspersions on my person for reasons only their silly minds can fathom. A lit of bullying happens here n it should not be so. I want to believe we are all mature minds n for the idiot who said he realises why my husband left, I forgive u knowing that a greater disaster will befall your destiny.

Thank you for your response. Its really a shame how people especially women get bullied on nairaland( i'm being factual n not playing the gender card) . No one prays to be a single mum or be deserted by her husband. Finding myself in this situation, i m going to make d best out of it. My kids will neither suffer nor lack by HIS grace. I v a respectable job ( not oil and gas oh�) n i do my profession because i love it n i m obsessed with my job so why go outside naija? Besides i have my mum, sis, a live-in home help plus a nanny to look after my kids when i am at work. Abeg i go fit get all dese support for yankee? Not everyone who gets visa or asks questions here has ulterior motive.


Dear poster, I will be honest with you and tell you that the U.S. knows that your kids father is still in the States. There's a site to check every US visitor's transit in and out of the States, you just put your passport number and details and it shows you date you entered and left.https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/#/home
If the person is still in the States it will show on the site. It's run by the U.S. DHS. However, you stated in your form that you will be travelling alone with your kids and all expenses made by you so you should be ok. If at all your kids dad is mentioned at POE simply tell the truth that he left you and his kids and you haven't heard from him. I wish you the very best. The Lord is your strength.[/quote]

Tantrums ke, deres absolutely no need to do so. Afterall na me carry my wares come marketplace�

At the time i made dat post, i had mine n my kids hadn't deirs but i spoke with faith. Besides judging from my experience when i got my first visa, i knew it was most unlikely my kids wld be denied ( save for deir father's aspect) . At d mention of where i work, d interviewer just googled my name , made a joke n no further questions were asked( pls dont miscontrue this to mean pride or arrogance oh). Thanks for wishing me well.

I dont need to share screenshots of my kids visas to assert when they were issued . You are entitled to your opinions and assumptions. Thanks for your time. The next time i ll be on this chat, i must have gone n returned to naija.
As per canada- it was something i was interested in n shelved. I 'm doing just fine in naija.

Thanks for your response. I v had to refer to my records to answer the questions you v raised and they are as follows
* when filling d form i wrote that the father was in nigeria whereas he was in d states. ( i didnt want to risk my kids being refused visas)
*i filled dat i (not their dad)would be travelling with them n i would be d one to bear the cost.
*as regards my travel history, i v never been to the states but i v been to the UK thrice ( last trip was in 2012) n i v been to south africa once.

Hi all, @seyewest
My case is a bit complicated. The father of my kids ( u will understand y i refuse to call him husband)n i Got our first us visa in april 2014 n found out i was pregnant afterwards. Since i did not want to violate the terms of my visa ( visit n not for baby) i stayed in naija to v my baby. I also could not travel cos where i work u dont get an annual leave in d same year u get maternity leave ( u can only v one). I had my baby in september of 2014 n realised i was pregnant again in january 2015. Again i cld not travel dat year cos same situation of annual n maternity leave arose. In addition to dat, i got a double promotion at work n it did not look wise to take a vacation when i had just been promoted. Had my baby in oct 2015. To cut d long story short, dat visa expired n it was not used. I n d father of my kids applied for another visa in dec 2016 n it was granted. The father of my kids travelled early 2017 with d understanding dat he will return after a month. After two months, he stopped communicating with i n d kids n all efforts to reach him prove abortive. I know he s alive n well in d US cos his sisters tell me so. I v put dat aspect of my life behind me n need to be strong for my kids. I want to be able to give dem the best.
My questions are two- 1) i applied for and got visas for my kids in april 2017. I want to travel to the USA with them on vacation for 22 days. I hope their father's defection will not affect our chances of entering the USA?
2) My visa expires early december 2018 n i plan to travel in september 2018 as dat is when i have my annual leave. Is it to close to my visa expiry date? Thanks in advance n no pity party pls ( as regards d father of my kids) life happens n dis i v taken in good faith. I m happy n my kids are

Hi all,
I want to apply for a visitors visa alongside my two toddlers. They have no travel experience but I v been to UK,South Africa. Currently, we all v valid America visas. I am a journalist and work with a reputable media house. My take home is 260 but only 180 goes into my acct. because I contribute 80 to the office cooperative society n dis is deducted from source. I have no landed property anywhere and don't intend to stay put in Canada. My job is exciting enough n it would not hurt if I am refused a visa. We plan to visit the US in September so I was just thinking it d be nice to also see Canada. I have about 2m in my acct. Pls advice me on how to go about it.
