Hello, how do you mean "Lagos date is out?" Does it mean if one uses Lagos embassy you'd get a close date like this same June?


Please, chat me, I just send you a mail . Check your inbox. THANKS

AZzoe:


This is amazing....you could try. But if you want to retry, you could address the reason for the previous denial.

Please Lagos or Abuja?

VictorUSA15:
Reapply jare.
Don't give up! Don't listen to voices that tell you why you won't make it.

Make sure you address the issue that got you denied.

Visa denied(2nd attempt)
First attempt was for spring admission but a different school
COA:~30k

Scholarship:~12k
Program: MPH
School: LSUS
Deficit: to be paid by me
Location: US consulate office in one of the middle east country(where I work, same consulate as the first but not same VO. Although I saw the VO that denied before, and I even had wanted he be the one to interview me)

VO: I can see you were denied...
Me: yes sir I was denied xyz, I made some mistake while filling the DS 160 form, also my passport was less than 6month(I applied for the passport renewal in our of the Nigerian embassy in the middle east country but has not gotten the new passport). I got accepted in another school with funding and the school aligns better...(VO cuts in)
NB previous school's COA was over 40k with no fundings, but the school has higher ranking

VO: pass me you I-20( I passed it to him and wanted to also give him my SOA but he was not interested in that one)
VO: where is the admission letter
Me: (never knew they would ask for it and also did not receive any official admission letter from the school) the school did not send me any admission letter, my communication with them where via both email confirming my admission offer and through their website

VO: how long have you been in this country
Me: about 1yr 11m, working with...(VO cuts in)
VO: are you married
Me: no sir but I started the process during my last vacation in Nigeria and will hopefully be completing the process after my program or before that if possible
VO: (starred at him computer for about a minute as if reading something and a bit worried) sorry you are not eligible for the visa you applied for(hands me my passport and denial letter)
Me: please what is the possible reason for my denial
VO: we do not tell people why they are denied.

On back of the paper, the alien(3rd country applicant stuff) immigration law was stated, some like aliens(foreigners working in another country) are seen as immigrants until they can prove otherwise to the satisfaction of the consulate officer...
I think one of the major issues I had was applying from another country and not having enough home ties/proving so(eg same question of how long you have been in XYZ country and are you married were asked in first attempt).


My observations in the consulate office:
It is very easy to get appointment dates(eg one can see appointment dates within 3days of intended interview date,...)

Most citizens are granted visas(F1, tourist, etc) without much questions while noncitizens are refused more with more questioning.

I am currently thinking if I should forget about the school stuff, settle down first before reapplying, defer the admission or reapply from Nigeria(I do not think it is wise to reapply from the country as it does not provide enough ties, I maybe wrong though)

My questions are:
1. If I decide to reapply ASAP, is it possible to apply from Nigeria while still leaving and working outside Nigeria?(if possible, how can I go about it especially in filling DS 160 form, the section of home/mailing address, employment details, referee, etc. Also, how possible is it to get date(program starts in 3rd week of August) before then and do I create another email with ustraveldocs.com?

2. Has any one use the services of a visa consultant like argovisa, etc. I am considering using one but do not know if it is worth it especially considering the cost?

Please holistic advice from gurus here would be greatly appreciated.

Please TEMITOPE and everyone I need ur urgent advice on this
I was denied yesterday and I want to reapply and see if I can get a date before August 28 but some people said it may look like I am desperate to Leave Nigeria and they may not give me again
And also I heard that the rate of approval for people like me who just finished secondary School/ high school is low compared to people who are going for their graduate's
But I have also seen people who got denied and reapply again after some days and got approved so it's confusing me

Dharmielorlarh:
Good evening
Please I need help with whatsapp or telegram group for USA visa processing and other issues. Thanks.

In a situation where the school requires sponsorship affidavit and the recommended is Parent sponsorship but both parents are retired and not truthfully capable. Pls how can one go about it and what are the other options.
Thanks.

Ogundare26:
Thank you this really motivated me because I already told my dad to let me go to nursing school because I finished secondary School 2020 and started my visa application 2021 I was supposed to resume last year but could not get a interview date so I deferred it to this year just to get denied but my dad was the motivating me to reapply again and trust God maybe I can get a new date before August 21 and also get my visa approved. I pray so because I am worried about the time running out for me

mojolajesu:
It’s an error from the portal. Just ignore it and schedule a new date. You don’t have any issues

welf99:

Thank you very much for your response.

Please I decide to apply from Nigeria, should I use the address of my current place of residence or that of my country of citizenship(Nigeria)?
Thank you once again.

You are not economically established, your immigration status is not strong enough and no strong ties in your country of residence. You should reapply from your country of resident if your situation changes. If you decide to apply from Nigeria you need to show significant ties in your country of citizenship. You need to get your story right around where you work and why you are applying from Nigeria.

July is available in lagos

Was she denied or delayed?
Is her passport truly with the embassy? If yes, then she has to wait or send an email to them via : support@ustraveldocs.com
Usually when no response ( not denied, not accepted) was given to you during your interview, and they took your passport it means it's under "administrative processing" they're going through your information and they'll definitely get back to you.

reigningme:
Thank you for your response. She was denied and the passport was returned back to her.

expand09:
Has your friend gotten his passport back?

Ogundare26:
I got it on the 26 of June last year I don't know if I can quickly use it before it expires. Thanks quote author=TEMIT0PE post=123789853]Since it's exactly 12 months since you paid, i think it's best you send them an email to confirm the exact expiration date.

Good evening all. I will be having my interview by the end of this month in Abuja, please I need affordable hotels around the embassy in Abuja. Your suggestions will be appropriated.

Yaasir:




What is your status in the Middle East country? Visa or permit? If you have a permit that should not be a problem. I did something similar but from a European country. If you are on a visa alone, it could raise suspicion that you are simply shopping for a favorable location.

Leftrightcenter:
Thank you very much for your response.
I work in the Middle East country and I have my resident permit.
Please you mean you applied in Nigeria from a European country?
What was the experience like and how were you able to explainwhy you applied in your home country instead of the European country where you stay?
