You are not doing it well and that page is likely corrupted (DS-160 is a security sensitive website).
Go to a cyber cafe and ask the operator to resize the photo and upload it for you . It is not something you can get via abstract explanation. Or give it to a relative with a more computer navigational skill. Pls do not submit the ds-160 without the passport. 👍

Hi guys please I need help understanding something. I want to visit the US for the first time in February, 2026 for a friends event. I have what can be seen as good travel history. But I want to apply asap so I can get a notice from work and start preparing. Now that they've made visas 3 months, if I apply November 28, 2025, does it mean my legal stay expires Feb 28, 2026 even if I enter on Feb 20, 2026 or they start counting the 3 months from date of entry. Also anyone who has been given a visa since the rules changed, what does your I-94 say; 90 days or less?

How long does it take the embassy to respond to Emergency Interview request?.
I made the request via the usvisaappt.com and its been over a week now,nothing has been heard so far and its for medical reason.

A client was asked if she deliberately went to give birth in The US 20 something years ago and she did not hear the question properly and replied yes was refused a visa.


If you went to give birth anytime in the US, expect irrelevant questions .


I think the consultant officer was deliberately being silly.

The consular officer was not deliberately being silly, but there was a prompt you did not know which made him or her to check your client's alien file. That file will be kept for 100 years on all entry and exit records.

However, it is not something they do all the time except if the person has been criminally annotated. There is nothing wrong in giving birth in the U.S if you make the intention known in your visa application, pay all medical fees required, and tell the consular verbally (genuine intention). In that case. your B2 visa can be annotated for child birth in which you won't have any problem in the future.

May be your client did not follow the rules & policies for childbirth. 👍

A Medical Emergency Appointment request if done according to the rules should not take more than 48hrs to be approved or denied. Medical & Study emergency request get faster response but you must follow the rules.

The major rule for your ER under medical is that a Nigerian hospital must refer you to a specialist in the U.S.A, and the specialist (U.S. Hospital) must accept to treat you and invite you over. In this respect, you need the Nigerian hospital letter and the US hospital invitation letter to apply for your ER.

NOTE: If certainly you have followed the above guidelines and you are yet to receive approval or denial response, then that means there are lot of applications that is being put forward to the embassy. You are free to open a ticket or send an email to remind them. Alternatively, you may reapply again if the option is still in your dashboard. 👍

Hi.

Firstly, let me start by helping you to change your old fallacy about travel history. Although, having traveled to few countries and returned without any crime record places you in a good profile for reputation only, and such reputation can be ie a rich man or woman who can afford travels and who is likely going to return and travel elsewhere again.

Aside of the above accolade, U.S. visa success does not rely on travel history and proof of funds anymore. It is now relying on your genuine intentions, background checks both in Nigeria and anywhere, and your ability to communicate it via your visa application (Ds-160) and verbally to the visa officer.

As per the 3- months visa. U S. embassy will be visionary about it because they will think all the visa application scenarios imaginable (like you are thinking right now) and decide the best ways to issue the visa without causing confusion. The visa can be issued indefinitely until you enter America before it starts counting. The visa might be renewable at the port of entry until after so and so year before you will have to go back and renew at the embassy, etc.

I will suggest that you focus on securing the visa 1st, and don't rely on your good travel history 👍

Please can you help me with WhatsApp date search group for b1b2 visa, I’ve been searching on my on with any good date. Please it is for my mum

Ada.
I don't know of any official date search group on Nairaland. However, there is nothing a date-searching group can do that you cannot do yourself. There is no magic anywhere other than keeping an eyes on your reschedule option and equipping your gadget with faster internet and frequenting your avits profile with caution. The last resort is to apply for an emergency appointment for your mum (if she qualifies). 👍
