JaySterling:
They have records of everything. And whatever you fill in your application, their database will search for anything matching it with other profiles.

For example, a guy in my area travelled to US in 2018 with visiting visa and he did not return

The address he filled in his application was their family house address

His younger brother recently got denied of an F1 visa. He used the same family house address in his application unknowingly. When they pulled up his profile, his brothers profile came up too. Since they both had same address.

The VO told him that his brother travelled on a visiting VISA which was valid for 6 months and didn’t return. The younger brother was shocked how they knew because he didn’t mention it in his application that he had a relative in USA.

The VO denied his F1 visa based on 2 things
-Withholding pertinent information from DS-160 application form. (not revealing he has a relative in USA)
-No strong ties (he might abscond like the brother)

If I would advise you, in the place of parent, fill in your uncle or something else

Think about this, what of orphans wey no get parents nko? What would dey fill in that place??

This is to let you know that, that field of parents on DS-160 form is totally irrelevant. And you can put anything there.

Your GRE and GPA is okay, don’t let your bro’s case jeopardize your study dream.

Which uni did you finish from ?

I honestly do not think the field of parents is totally irrelevant, except of course you aren't close to your parents. What happens if you want your parent to be present at your graduation? What happens if you probably get married or give birth and you want your parent to come visiting? Anyway, except you won't want your parent to come visiting under any circumstance then you should think twice about your decision.

My mum was denied visa to go see her daughter for what we call Omugwo in Igbo. I don't know how to place the reasons for her denial. I don't want to sound spiritual but this is the 3rd time she'd been denied. We've fasted and prayed, all to no avail.

My sister even saw her friend's mum who visited her daughter just for graduation purpose and there I have my mum with more conviction to get hers approved but denied 3 times.

What is missing guys?

As for the home ties, I have a sister here, mother, father, stepbrothers here in Nigeria.

Also since I am my mother's firstborn and her only son I plan to return to take over her business and improve it with the knowledge I have gotten. It is from the business that the school funding and family wealth came from. I really hope it is a good enough home tie.

I also have a startup website although not registered yet, it is publically available for everyone to see and use. I don't know if I can use that too.


Family wealth!

Is there anyone going to Marshall University West Virginia this August or anyone already studying there?
I will like to talk to you.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by TEMIT0PE: 10:34am On May 09, 2021
But this is still strange. Did the VO retain your bank statement?
If they did, then you would have been placed on "administering processing" and not a straight approval, in which case your passport would still have been held, but not white paper signifying approval.
If your Bank statement was not held, then you surely weren't denied because of a fake bank statement.

Looks like there is more to your transcript you haven't shared.

Let me explain this

Before the VO collects SOA from you they'll ask you that if found to be fake you'll be bam for 10years.

Had it been he was refused before the SOA was collected it will be normal 214b denial, now they collected his SOA, verified it and found it to be fake, they'll surely leave a remark on his profile as fake SOA....don't forget he was approved before and his denial came after his document was found to be fake.....

These courses of study above are all good. But I have a question

Someone said it is only those who studied STEM related courses that would be able to apply for Optional Practical Training (OPT) extension and in future H1-B visa

So what are the benefits of studying non-STEM courses ??

I am asking because my younger sister wanna study criminal justice and I’m advising her to go for a STEM course to be on the safe side in legalizing her stay after studies.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Botfuss: 1:22pm On May 09, 2021
