LadyGuinivere:In fact the matter tire me when the VO mentioned that only a US citizen has the sole "right" to be admitted into the US. Well, I nor blame VO but our forefathers. I just hope I won't be selected for interview during renewal. Their wahala too many. GOD bless Nigeria, GOD bless our oil. |

profkehinde:Why are you complicating issues, is she with a family member who is legal in u.s? Is she in a hotel or rented apartment by her self? I believe the later is not applicable. So why would you want to mention her name at point of entry if she is with a friend or family menber? She is still legal in u.s with her visa status but you have no reasons of mentioning her name at poe. Who ever she is staying with, hence the individual has legal status she be your contact Good Luck. |

Shofas:He is still single hence the interview is before his wedding. He still needs to tell them he is applying for visa because his going on a honey moon with his fiancee after there wedding on the 11th Good Luck |

profkehinde:Omo Bendel may ur cruz of oil never run dry o! ![]() @Poster. The answer is simple. If your wife has overstayed , yes yes yes. You are most likely to run into problems |

Good morning house. Please I didn't indicate my middle name on my appointment confirmation document. Please does this spell any problems for me? All my other docs including my DS160 has my middle name. @LadyGuinivere and others please advice. Thank you |

Shofas:That may come across as a deliberate attempt to "rig" the interview (a lot could happen between this interview date and the marriage date if granted the visa on the VO's assessment, you know). Why not at least move the interview date to somewhere right after the registry marriage has happened? Refusal to allow the interview happen after the marriage could lead to that term "you are not qualified for a visa right now" being used on you. Change of circumstance and stronger ties established could be in the form of: I'm now married; and more years of work experience has been gathered too. Good luck! |

morgan2006:Is the middle name on your passport? Well, it seems to be a little challenge though, if the other names are on the passport. You could just explain this to them at the point of intake/entry at the embassy. They could fix that and you can easily explain that at the interview. You could also reach out to the appointment/ cgi website people and do them a mail or put across a call to them just in case you are still not comfy. Great day |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by OmoBendel24: 7:39am On Jan 14, 2016 |
profkehinde: Seems you already have it all covered now (if there's no plan to adjust status/overstay by any of you. I mean you, your wife and/or child) if this is all there is to your talk and your only worry is now "why she suddenly chooses to forfeit her return flight". Could have advised you some bit better if there was no suspicion though. Great day |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by morgan2006(m): 7:58am On Jan 14, 2016 |
The middle name is on the passport. Thanks for your kind response. I will reach out to them. OmoBendel24: |

profkehinde:With all due respect sir, but your story doesn't add up totally. A Nigerian professor's wife who is also a teacher suddenly abandoned her teaching job to stay back in the US? For what? A Nigerian full professor of medicine with a five years old child? Or did you mean to say grandchild? Sir you must be very lucky and among the few that have attained the highest academic ranking in "Nigerian" university at a young age with our Government bureaucracy. You're travelling next week, and she was supposed to return January 25th. Then it's not a problem at POE since she'll still be in the US as stated initially. Please tell madam to think about it again, but if she has the energy to face another stringent VO during her renewer, no troubles. Instinct tells me otherwise. If you are clean, you have nothing to fear. Best wishes. |

profkehinde:No issues. No one is even gonna ask you about ur wife if you dont volunteer information, and even if you are asked, People change dia mind every now and then. As per the airline, u must have bought a promo ticket which usuually is not extendable beyond 3mths |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by nefertitiram: 4:15pm On Jan 14, 2016 |
raptor2:Reapply alone. let anoda vour handle your case |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by LadyGuinivere(op): 7:09pm On Jan 14, 2016 |
@raptor I saw ur pm.Please let's commune here. The info above is limited. I honestly can't form any opinion except that perharps the vo was in a bad mood. Again your travel history is limited. Though not a bar to visa...maybe it cinched the vo's mind. If u can give us a bit about yourself cos the vo read your whole form, we didn't. What do u do? For how long? How much do u earn? |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by ori777: 7:09pm On Jan 14, 2016 |
Hello everyone, Pls I would appreciate your advise. I made visa appointments for I and my family but want to find out if it is possible to cancel and use the Dropbox option which we qualify for. Pls has anyone done this successfully? Also I have read up a couple of people who were asked to go and reschedule their appointments due to difference In DS 160 and confirmation no/ details. Pls can someone explain this error so others can possibly avoid it? Thank you. |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by LadyGuinivere(op): 7:40pm On Jan 14, 2016 |
ori777:This error usually occurs when folks run faster than their shadows and book appointment before completing and submitting ds 160. They usually create another ds 160 and the result is that both don't match. Compare your appointment page with ds 160 before ur date. Just cancel the date and drop your stuff at the appros DHL offices if you quallify. When u go to either your profile or u start filling the ds 160,(can't rem which now. Long day. Fried brains) There are prompts to ask if you qualify for dropbox. Make I go watch Dogood abeg de-fry my brain ![]() |

FrontPageLawyer:That's just the truth,nobody will ask you about your wife at d poe all they will ask is what are you here for.becareful because ur purpose of your coming could become purpose of your deportation.tell me ur intending poe may be I may give you some little advice. |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by raptor2: 8:58pm On Jan 14, 2016 |
LadyGuinivere:Ok dear Am a banker, for 8yrs who is earning up to 325 monthly |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by Shofas: 9:01pm On Jan 14, 2016 |
Thanks @crazybunch and @omobendel22 |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by LadyGuinivere(op): 3:30am On Jan 15, 2016 |
raptor2:Better. That's an ok profile. (My opinion) So get a date asap. Fill youur form properly. When u get to the 'were you rejected and why column) you can state that you do not know because you were prepared with your documents and the vo didn't go through any. You can also squeeze in the reason why you want to birth in the US there. Isn't Richmond expensive? Is the budget sheet outragously expensive? Anyways the vo no even look am. If the costs/prices are fair, reapply exactly with the same details and then maybe go with hubby this time around. Good luck |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by profkehinde: 11:09am On Jan 15, 2016 |
Does someone need to notify the US officials on the decision to make a change of a return flight date back to Nigeria. Like for example, if on my return flight ticket, I'm meant to return home on January 20th, but I now decide to extend my return by another 3 months, which is April. Does one need to inform the US officials about this change ? |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by OmoBendel24: 11:43am On Jan 15, 2016 |
profkehinde:As written here by you, no issues yet at all in fairness to you. Extra factors are the things that bring issues. Still a good time for you to travel all things being equal. The more time she spends there the dimmer your chances of entering the US. Funny thing is that she is entitled to staying there up till the 180Days, but the more she stays the more it affects you, unless your visas are not related or connected at all. Is she not having something doing in Nigeria, if no, was the interviewing VO aware at the time of her interview? What's keeping her in the US, is she enjoying anything restricted to only US citizens, LPRs and tax payers? For how long is your visa and her visa still valid dear Prof? Give or take, overstaying leads to issues particularly when it comes to renewal (unless that is non of your bizness, staying more than necessary even within the 180days affects "technically" if not well explained subsequently, a day more than 180 attracts 3 years ban, more than 365 attracts 10years ban). The info you may be hoarding may just be you guy'z undoing sha in the future if there's any! Between, you seem much more like interested in you entering the US to join your family than coming out of there with your family though. Good luck |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by OmoBendel24: 11:55am On Jan 15, 2016 |
LadyGuinivere:Several other factors could militate against one pursuant of a US visa that we may not be able to identify from transcript. That little secret you think you are hiding neatly may be bare to them e.g., using multiple packages at some related embassies without knowing it amongst others. "Good on paper but bad otherwise" is sometimes the end result! Coming out straight remains the best if I must advise. All the best in your reapplying |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by LadyGuinivere(op): 11:55am On Jan 15, 2016 |
Worry. I see u! |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by profkehinde: 12:02pm On Jan 15, 2016 |
OmoBendel24:Thank you very much. We got our visas about a year apart. This trip was her third trip. Previous trips she spent less than 2 weeks each before she returned. As at now, she has not even spent 30 days in the US since she left Nigeria. She was given 6 months at POE, meaning she has until June. Will it be illegal for her to cancel her return flight scheduled for next week, and then buy another ONE WAY flight back to Nigeria in MAY ? Honestly she can never be out of status and will never want to do such. Shes a retired teacher and now owns her own College here in Nigeria. She has more than 20 workers in her private school here in Nigeria. She just wants to spend like 5 months in the US. Remember her previous 2 trips , she spent less than 2 weeks each on those visits. Does the US have record of the return date stated on the current flight ticket ? Thanks |

Help! .. we ve been finding it difficult to upload our passport photograph for the past 4 days and our appointment date is close by.. its saying "image colour may be unnatural or grayscale" |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by nextedge: 12:48pm On Jan 15, 2016 |
Pls has anyone travelled with Qatar airways here before? What's the experience like especially for a family of four. I like to know cos it appears they have the cheapest offer. I know in many cases cheap things come with their shortcomings. Your views especially from experienced persons will be appreciated. |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by profkehinde: 12:58pm On Jan 15, 2016 |
nextedge:Qatar airline isn't a cheap airline, unless u re very lucky to get a cheap price. Their Aircrafts are really good, smooth in the air, I have travelled with them to different countries more than 6 times. For me, they are one of the best and very very safe. |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by OmoBendel24: 1:05pm On Jan 15, 2016*. Modified: 2:06pm On Jan 15, 2016 |
motherloventina:No need uploading. Just complete and submit your DS160 form without it for now. But, go take a passport picture (to specification oh) between 500-700 naira and take the hardcopy with you to the interview. That's all! |
| Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by OmoBendel24: 1:13pm On Jan 15, 2016 |
nextedge:I haven't, but I believe they should be cool. Airlines from that axis are always correct. I have used Emirate and Etihad, very long trip though! I read about the other airlines complaining about the edge they have because of their government (Arab oil money intervention and subsidy) coming to assist them. Deliberately ensure you fly the A380 or 787 though. The planes on the African particularly Nigeria route can be annoying though (almost all airlines going to their home country for transit purpose) |
