Dear House, compliments of the season.kindly advice please.

I plan to visit the US on holiday this year, I am single,and i work as a contract staff in one of the oil and gas companies.I visited the UK last year on vacation and that was the very first time i traveled out of Nigeria. I hope to use a hotel reservation as against invitation letter.
Kindly let me know my chances of getting a visa.

Thanks

Sorry about that.The only thing I can think of here is, how did ur husband's sister immigrate? Maybe you guys should travel as a family ist and reapply later. The paper she gave you, what did it say? What was the color?

LadyGuinivere:
@100dollar (nna send some to me na! Lol)
1. UK refusal no concern them. They won't ask you. If I'm right, in filling the US form, u are only asked about prior US refusals if any.

2. When you are applying go along with all your wife's reciepts and gbo gbo eh. If she got a zero balance report from the hospital carry am go. Cos as you are going for family vacation, they'l ask if your wife and son have a visa and from there, they'l scutinise your wife.

3. Virgin passport is not a bar as lotsa people have gotten with that.

4. As to tie, now it depends on your business? Small or medium or large scale? That is one of the ties they will consider

5. IMO , you have a fighting chance, cos your wife went, did not abuse the process, paid and came back. If I was the VO, I'll assume that your family is a law abiding one. Your son, though a citizen is still a baby so I do not think it will bear much weight. If your wife didn't seek support then, its unlikely she will now (My 2 kobo).

I have a question sha.
When your wife was going did she apply to give birth or she just used her visa to give birth? If the latter was the case, did she inform them of her intention?
Lol @ Nna send some to me na.I will, you deserve it the great job you are doing hereon ma. I'm just trying to view myself from a "winch craft" VO's point of view.i.e the fact that my wife went to US, gave birth, paid her bill and came back could be a decoy to a grand plan of not coming back if we all enter, lols. My business is relatively medium. I have 12staff on my payroll apart from adhoc staffs. And yes, my wife got a B1/B2 medical visa. Lastly, i will like to go for the interview by 3rd week of march please when should i start filling the ds-160/schedule appointment. Thanks

Well.......u'd v applied while ur wife was still in the state saying u wanted to witness d birth of ur child even though u wldnt go.U'd v seized d opportunity. Ur case is not hopeless just be honest in ur interview
Sir, i planned to do that but some stuffs that required my financial attention came up so i had to priortize. I didnt know one could get a visa even if he doesn't have the plans of travelling. What i was made to understand is that one must travel not later 6 months of issuance of visa otherwise he could be sent back at POE. I wouldn't know how true that is

Whosoever told you that is...ok let me just said that a bald faced untruth. U can use your visa any time after issuance.
2ndly, IMO , you are ok. Your wife did everything by the books. Now as to employment. I believe you pay yourself salary? Whilst filling the form remember to fill in your monthly salary o not your profit from the business. It might do yoo good if you have a statement that shows this (not that they peruse documents, but one never knows the day the winch VO will decide to come out ; D grin grin
As to filling your form, I always say the earlier the better, you have enough time to cross check your forms and get the date you want. So for march, its ok to start now. Cheers and best of luck!
Re: Usa Visit Visa by sparklerii: 10:24am On Jan 05, 2015
Morning all, the paper is white and it says we ve been found ineligible for a nonimmigrant visa under section 214b of d US immigration and nationality act .applicants usually meet this requirement by demonstrating that they have strong ties overseas that indicate that they wld return to a foreign country after a temporary visit to the united states, such ties include professional, work, school, family, or social links.you have not demonstrated that u have ties that will compel you to return to your home country, how ever u may reply at any time or to demonstrate that ur circumstances have changed since that application.
Re: Usa Visit Visa by LadyGuinivere: 11:22am On Jan 05, 2015
@sparkle simply put , the VO wasn't satisfied that you guys woudlnt run off in the US. I mean you guys have not travelled together and returned.
So take a family vacation to a non african country ist.
Please make una add o if I no yarn better
Re: Usa Visit Visa by sparklerii: 11:36am On Jan 05, 2015
Tanx a lot for ur response. we later went for a family vacation and I intend to apply again but not wt the family, just me alone.

@suxes2006,hello house
My aunt in USA want to send me a letter of invitation to come over. She also said I should let her know what other document she need to provide. I am currently unemployed in Nigeria and i don't know which document I should ask her to provide. Please, I need the house to advice me on what to tell her to send and how I should go about this. I would also like to know if it is possible for a guy who does not have a job to get visa travel down to USA.I have also not traveled outside the shores of this country. How do I go about it, where do I start and what should I tell her. My Aunt want me to come over there and apply for a Masters.Thanks for help and your advice.

It's been said so many times that invitation letters and other documents like bio data page, income tax return etc are not necessary when applying for a B1/B2. You'll be surprise VO is not going to ask to see those documents on your day of interview.
What is important is your social and economic ties to your country.

You made mentioned of doing your masters when you get to the state, so why can't you apply for schools in the states from Nigeria? IMO, the F1 visa is little easier to get with careful planning. Check out this thread, amazing things are happening there.

Hello house a very good evening to u all, pls I want to make some enquiries and find out what my chances are I applied for american visa last year but was denied for obvious reasons ( I said I was going for a conference in aviation simply because I work a bank in the airport) the vo asked how my work was related I explained but I guess I couldn't convince him enough. Well now I want to apply for vacation . I have been working in the bank for 4 years now, I have a 5 year visa UK visa which I used last year , I also travelled to france last year on vacation. I am not married yet and I intend to do hotel reservation as I stated in my last application that I didn't have any relative In the US. Pls what are my chances and what can I do now to increase my chances of getting the visa. Thank you

i'm sure I was madder than you lmao cheesy but I managed to smile out of the interview hall, when I got home my aunt just cheered me up by telling me she got hers after 4 refusals, I just started laughing again

hello all I still await your advice on the above. Thanks
I think you have got it right this time around because you already know the reason for your refusal the last time, fill your form correctly and make it sway more towards vacation and add any supporting documents that you think will help your case, you have a job and an income source so you shouldn't have issues

The fundermentals behind wht you'd expect @ ur visa interview is dependent on wht u filled on ur application form. Just be confident, consistent & straightforward with your answers to the VO.

She sent a scanned copy of her green card already. But I just wanted to know what the experience was like for anybody who was interviewed at abuja office.

abuja consulate is a lenient one as we all know, and you don't need to stress much but take necessary documents because they request for a few documents compared to Lagos
