Hello guys

I have been keenly following this thread, read through many transcripts, and they've been very insightful. My wife and I have applied to visit the US in August for 3 weeks for our annual vacation. Appointment is next week.

Our destination is New Jersey (Newark) and this is because of its comparatively lower accommodation cost and proximity to New York. We will be hoping to do a lot of sightseeing in New York and perhaps see a little of Newark/New Jersey (as I see there aren't a lot of interesting attractions in New Jersey by itself).


Will I need to reflect my answer to why I am visiting, around New Jersey ONLY or I can state that I'll be seeing New York too? I have booked a hotel for 3 weeks in Newark but I'm considering the possibility of touring other states. Will I need to mention that too?

Our US point of contact is wife's cousin in Chicago whom we do not intend to visit (we just filled her name as our contact person) but she is a legit immigrant (visa lottery I think).

Also, in 2013, I submitted a DS-160 to visit my friend in Idaho but I never booked an appointment (he is a student and I was still single). Will that have any implications on this particular application?

Me and wifey are both bankers, earn a combined sum of about 600 monthly, newly got married in Dec 2015, with the honeymoon in Dubai. No travel history for me except Dubai and Ghana. Wifey has visited the UK twice in 2007 and 2010 as a small geh with her parents (doubt if that will count). Wifey is also into clothing business.

Are there any specific things I'd need to note? Any advice we can get from the good people here?

I have a bit issue and I can't seem to figure it out. I invited my dad and my younger brother (he's 10 years). My dad is early 50s. My dad visa was approved nd the VO denied my brother. My dad said the VO just ask if he's married and how many kids he has and his job. No document was asked. The VO didnt ask my brother any question, he didn't even look at his face. Please what could have gone wrong ? Why will he deny a 10 years old boy ? I have read on NL that kids don't get denied just on few occasion but this is really a blow.

I need comments on this please. Advice

LadyGuinivere:

Without having a holistic /total view of the application, the speculations will be off the chart. Maybe the VO didn't believe your brother was your brother and not your son, or he's to be the tie your father has.

zeezahbee:
my dad actually told the VO he's last baby. they are so identical sef. same face, like as if he vomited him. my dad has a lot of ties. ( business, properties and my mom and my 3 sisters lol) and we are 5 and I am the firSt. can we reapply for him again and dad will like follow. he's the last born and only son and you know how dad always pet last born. na just holiday and go back.

seyewest:
How old is he?

zeezahbee:
he's 10 years

seyewest:
wow.. Where is mom? and when is the event taking place.. remember he can only travel during the holidays

zeezahbee:
did you read my first post well. there's no event. they are just coming for holiday this summer. plus my mom doesn't have to come with them cause she's busy.

imperiouxx:


Did you invite them for your ocassion or just for summer visiting? Whatever the case may be, you already know that the VO didn't believe the minor is not coming to start life in the US. My advice would be you stating a clear reason you want him to come. Let your dad reapply for him. And yes, he should follow him to the embassy to make the matter clear for them during the interview. Another VO might judge the situation right. Best!

zeezahbee:


I invited them just for holiday. they will spend 10 days pere, it's just funny that they denied a small boy. I think the option is reapply for him again and dad will follow him. i accept that the VO think the small boy was eloping. today wasn't just a lucky day for him.

anyways how's your classes going ?

Hi house,
I recently came to Nigeria to renew my USA B1/B2 visa all the way from Ukraine through Dropbox. I submitted since two weeks ago and I am yet to hear anything from the embassy or DHL I have called the embassy twice and I was told to wait. Now the issue on ground is, I am supposed to be back to school for my final exams this month and I have to leave Nigeria this week. Is there anyway I can get my passport back from the embassy with or without the visa? Because right now, I'm more than worried. I have been having sleepless nights and so on. Please is there anybody in the house that has had similar experience and please what do you suggest I do best? I have to be out of the country latest by Friday this week. Please help... All candid opinions are welcome. Gracias!

The most likely reason is that he believe that your dad ll return but he was not sure of your brother.
In general VO used your brother as your dad's tie to Nigeria.

Demiyike:


it take about 15 days now so you should be getting it about now or better still try and track it at ceac.state.gov/ceac for you to have an idea of what stage they are in the process

I did track it. It showed:

Issued
Application ID or Case Number: AA005WC***
Case Creation Date: 26-Apr-2016
Status Updated Date: 28-Apr-2016

I'm just worried about going back to school for my exams. I was told 4-7 working days. I'm surprised at the delay.
Then try tracking it with USA travel docs to know if it is with dhl
