Hi, let's say you go fo the interview and get the visa which is usually 2yrs for B1/B2. When your passport expires 4months after, you will have to pay another 31,200 for Dropbox.

Why not just avoid that by first renewing your passport before submitting the application.

If by ' Hope there will nt be any prob at d point of interview' u mean , can u use the new passport for the visa issuance- then yes u will have a problem. They will only take the passport with the No. U filled in the form.
I do not know if they can swap the numbers before the interview. I suggest u give them a call (or read back. I recall somebody else had same issue a while back)

Group booking is for more than 10 people

lollll,anyway thanks for the info @LadyGuinivere

LadyGuinivere:

If u are in ghana legally eg you have a resident permit or you are studying full time there yes u may get the visa.
If u are there on a visit- No. From visit na e u wan visit again? Lol
As for the processses involved, u will have to do some research. Read back this thread or read the US website. Its self explanatory. If u now don't understand, u can ask specific questions

thanks @iRyan

Sorry about that! Just summon courage and don't give up tho. @Lady G, am wondering, does this mean most applicants without travel history are most likely to be rejected?

The fact that one has travelled to a 'developed country' and returned is an indication that the fella won't run away. They are less likely to do trial and error although people with no travel history have gotten. But the probability diminishes when there's none.
Like I gisted earlier, the first time I applied with no history, the bouncing was in less than a minute. The 2nd time, immediately I mentioned that I'd been to UK a coupla times, the VO's body language changed

Sorry about that, I like your spirit...lol at the bottles. Remember when I did this?

daway:
My appointment is ds week, b1/b2. I have my hotel booking confirmation and leave letter and introduction letter from my company plus account statement plus marriage certificate. Never travelled before but am going for vacation alone without family and will as well attend a 2days training in the states too.
Any advice will be appreciated.

I had to hold myself back from discouraging you from applying.

What you need now is a significant change in circumstances.... BUILD THAT TRAVEL HISTORY!!!

hello @LadyGuinivere please i will appreciate if i can have your email ID. wanna ask some personal questions regarding this application.

Thanks

Lol build thanks for the advice but on a second note...why will I travel around for no reasonable reason? I would rather be here in naija a king than compromise my life for a us visa. Make them de their lane, until I have a reason to travel I will do so but if it's for yankee visa e no poss. They no worth am, they just de chop our money

From my experience, I can tell that the most important thing is the purpose of travel and home ties. On the other side if u no never travel before, it's a hard one but I still don't want to believe that shud be a yardstick

I didn't ask you to travel around for no reason. I disagree that they aren't worth it and no, they didn't chop your money...you paid a fee for a service which was rendered.

Honey. Did you start the story elsewhere? Cos I (I'm sure I speak for lotsa folks here)don't understand your story. When was your interview? What were the several questions u were asked.
Take your time. Type slowly so we can understand and help u
God bless

@ the bolded. IMO i think your responds during the interview is not in line with what you filled on the Ds form.

Like the gurus in the house (LadyG, Cloe7, Spykid, IRan and others) always advice, try as much to package your self to reflect the information on the form. (Verbally and physically).

All the best next time.
