Most times, applicants don't know why they are denied visas. VOs do not disclose that either unless out of sympathy, so to speak.

Asking this young man to read and post his rejection is like having a pen without ink.

Posting his transcripts would enable gurus here to figure out his problem or problems. I guess the info he supplied previously might be a pain in the ass.s

I just did a search now on NL on Dominicumoh and noticed others have given feedback on his transcript in the past including you ..... So maybe he needs to go back re-read all those feedback (instead of reposting) and really take time to address some of the feedback before he goes back .

Anybody who cannot get on campus Job and don't want to do illegal work should hola me. i.e. If you came January and there are few opportunities in your school during winter OR you came fall and your not sure there will be on campus opportunity / you couldnt get CPT job in your field.
File for Economic hardship and site Nigerian economic and foreign exchange woes to get authorization to work for any company outside campus.
NB: This is very helpful for undergraduate students who have 4yrs of school, master student, its only if you have extra 1year or semester then it may be helpful.
I was the first in my school to file and I got it, I can put you through if you need it. Also, you can use the authorization to work 40hrs sef even if your restricted to 20hrs, employers dont send just make sure you they pay you cash after the 20hrs.

Lucky you, I am in my final semester, luckily if it even qualify as luck sef my course was approved as STEM last semester. Still yet, all calls I get from boys is to get married. STEM OPT is no guarantee, you'll do the 1yr , get the extension 2 more yrs. Companies hardly file for anyone except if its IT field. BTW,, How come nursing students don't go through all this? I know hospitals don't file for nurses and physical therapist so i heard. This last semester, I am taking 3 course pere, na to hunt for babes remain.
NB: An indian girl in my school just finished MBA 2yrs 15k / semester = 60k. Didn't get any job offer, she heard my course (Finance) is now STEM, babe registered for MS Finance after doing MBA by taking another loan from home (India). It was then the cotton wool in my eye cleared that this American dream na SCAM, it is all about ur money, they sell you dream that 1 great job is waiting blah blah blah...
This is a risky advice but I'll say it cos everything in life is a risk...
You can follow this steps
You can reach here, register for skul,
get a job on campus in the first 1 month and obtain SSN
Try and also apply for Driver license within that month (Sept)
leave the skul without paying tuition fees, make sure they don't have your SSN so it will be recorded as bad debt since they cant track you.
Move to another state (Big City) where you can do under table
use that tuition fees to do arrange, or do register for all dating sites (do the payment option not free), or go to Walmart to find babes strolling
after marriage and filing, you can register for any skul at a cheaper rate or live your life.

BECAUSE... Even doing PhD sef don't have automatic H1B, some finished without jobs, just wasted time doing it to prolong the inevitable.
or you finish STEM, you finish OPT, you finish Extension.. What next .. Pack your load and go home.

Conclusion: It is advisable to do a STEM Course, preferrably IT, or go into the healthcare field but there is no guarantee and the probability of filing H1B reduces each year. There is the new option naija boys and girls are doing which is the military route.
If you've stayed in the US legally for 2 yrs, you can register for Active (4yrs) or Reserve (6yrs). The requirement is an interview in either Yoruba, Igbo or Hausa, so if your from a minority tribe and can't speak. OYO lo wa.
Lastly, no 1 knows what new policy will be implemented by Hillary or Trump. However, 1 thing is for sure, they can not stop MARRIAGE ROUTE... Dat 1 na hin sure pass

Hi ddbluv,

Please can we have a chat?

Sorry to read this ..... while sponsorship is an important question i personally dont think that the main reason.you really need to work on your answers and make sure u do something differently or else u will just be accumulating rejection

For example i went to look at ur previous transcript. U were asked why d school and u said blc a favourite lecturer went there..and then d vo said but ur other schools are more highly ranked and u didnt have a good response either. .. so i think u need to focus on how u can articulate why d school , why d course and ur career goals more. ...why that school . An ans blc my favourite lecturer went there thats all is not a good answer .. ...put effort on your answers, u are engineering talk about research .... more than bank account because in most cases no documents or bank accounts are checked . Loads of people used relatives with different surname and its been ok so i dont think different surname matters either

Also no best location because u have been to both...so its really your response and Gods favour but do your part well to some degree then leave the rest for God.



Thanks a bunch Bro....But after my first denial i really improved in my answers and i was more confident. I'll try to recall all my responses in my previous interviews so you can help me figure out where the problem is. The biggest mistake was not to have been on this platform before even scheduling my first interview....

Hello, it's not about schedulling for appointment but getting it right. You probably have to wait for some time before re-applying. What has changed positively for you recently?

Sorry for your denials. Could you please post all your transcripts?


Okay. I will post all my transcript here,...A change could mean having more money right? Yes I have made more money to fund my studies, another change could be that i'm now applying to resume in the spring session. In the 5th interview i even had to change my marital status to Married, still it didnt work for me,...the lady didnt even mention that...and now i'm faced with the confusion of whether to maintain my status as married or to return to my normal single state in my next application....Definitely a tough time for me cos this School has got everything i want and i fell in love with it a long time ago,....to reconfigure my mind to accept another school or another country other than the US could be vain.

First wherever you apply, all your records are available on computer.
Instead of guessing
Post the reason for rejection given on the letters.
It could be as simple as 214b, or something else.
Post it here and we can comment.

Yes, all my rejections is according to the 214b section of the immigration law. I'll post all my transcript soon.

Why Bridgeport? This is a low ranked school with little or no effort to get in. They even tempt you by saying they will give you half tuition. I used to live in New Haven, Connecticut. There are far better and cheaper schools than a low ranked university in Connecticut and the USA at Large.

I will advise you to be careful of what you are changing when fill your ds160 because that could add more insult to the injury. There are ways you could add to your changing but do not over hype your changes because those VO can think both positive and negative as well.

Just pray for God's Favour, Grade and Mercy and you will surely get it in your next interview only if you believe.
