I'm sorry about the denial and also about your proposed interview questions, because you get it right with your proposed interview questions does not mean you have the ties to sway the V.O in granting you the visa. You have to work on your ties and since you plan to go for vacation why not try another country.

Ok...please suggest for me, which of the ties do you think I should work on and in aspect of trying another country, which country do you think my status will work perfectly with?
Thanks.

I'm considering reapplying through my uncle's school, is it possible if I should apply this January?

In my opinion,

The interview has long been concluded before it began. This may be caused by having a wrongly filled DS 160 form. So I'll ask, did you filled the form yourself, and was it rightly filled?

As well, the opinion of applying through a school should nt be entertained coz you're yourself waving a red flag already.

Be your normal self, fill out the form yourself, do not engage agents and apply anytime you want but more importantly, just as your refusal letter 214b I guess, apply back WHEN YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES CHANGE.

Be bold, confident and friendly!

You won't get U.S visa by jumping from one thing to the other... And also look for countries that do proper scrutiny before issuing visa to visit.

I filled the DS 160 form myself, everything inside is true about myself. The refusal was based on 214b I don't if I should have told her that I have like 7 children at my age (26).
Well as you said, the interview has been concluded before I came because she didn't even ask me questions like where are you going, are you married...she was just saying yes you're going to so so, and you're married only to conclude with how many children, as I answered one, she quickly issued me yellow paper. Well, nothing spoiled God knows the best.
Thanks

Lemme share my POE entry and exit.

I renewed the visa last year and the address I put for where I'd be visiting is Florida (this is for people who ask 'I filled so and so but want to go to so so ' questions). This is the 3rd time I'm using this visa.

POE was DFW.
Travelled with my 3mnth old baby.
Met a nice young airport staff that helped me carry my bags from the aircraft all the way to my transport.
She took me straight to the front of the american/Canadian citizens queue. Filled and printed my receipt on the automated machine. I had no X on the receipt so straight to get my checked in bag.
Met the CBP officer on the way out and he asked how long I'd be staying. Told him 1 week, he stamped my passport and bid us farewell.


POE exit:
Was directed straight to the front of the queue again. This time the CBP officer was more friendly. Asked if I was taking my baby to go see his grandma..I told him my baby only followed me on biz.... he looked confused initially but flipped through my passport and saw I only had a visa. Scanned our passports and wished us a safe trip.

Hello my people in the house, i have been a silent reader, i gained alot on this forum and i will like to share our transcript: our visa was approved this week to a family of four with no travel history...


The interview was just favor from God, no document was checked..
we were giving priority becos my kids were tired and sleeping i had to carry one and my wife carried the order...
they called us out from the queue to be interviewed

VO: good morning with a strong face
WE: good morning
VO: passport please
ME: passed the 4 passport to him
VO: why going to the US
ME: going for family vacation
VO:what do you do
ME: system administrator and I paused
VO: he looked at my face and said for which company
ME: i told him
VO: what are your daily duties
ME: mentioned some of my duties
VO: said ok and asked do you know anyone in the US
ME: NO
VO: faced my wife and asked madam what do you do
MY WIFE: am a stationer, i owned so so store
VO: Good, do you have relative in the US
MY WIFE: NO
ME:interrupted, that was why we booked hotel..
VO: back to me where in the US are you going
ME: Orlando FL, will be taking our kids to Disney, myself and wife will be going to holy land experience
VO:Continuously typing
ME: busy looking at him and praying to hear the magic word
VO: your visa has been approved pick it in 3 days time and passed us a white paper.
MY wife looked at me amazingly and asked "just like that?" while we were still in front of the VO..... looooool.... i quickly dragged her out let us go..

My advice to people going for interview don't listen to side talk concerning any of the VO cos it can kill your moral, just be positive..
The VO that someone said on the queue that is a crazy one that has been denying people, was the same who granted ours.

PRAY AND GO WITH OPEN MIND....

It is advisable to TELL THE TRUTH.
Then you will not get caught out for fraud.

Keep things simple and truthful.
"I am visiting relations." or
"I have relations but will not be visiting them." or

"I have relations and they plan to find me a job and get me treated on Medicare!" shocked

No she's not saying that at all.. but if your aim is to get African stickers visa just for U.S visa.. most time it won't work.
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by yinkslinks(m): 4:03pm On Dec 23, 2016

Your success story had nothing. To do with those visasz. Please remember each Person is evaluated on his whole circumstance. Do you have the exact same situation with him?
If after being refused, next thing he does is to get those (what are they called again?) Stick on visas (??) Then goes ahead to reapply in january per his plan or soon after; be objective.
Do you think the vo will not see his ruse and view same as desperation?
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by yinkslinks(m): 5:17pm On Dec 23, 2016
I only told him/her to try go to other countries and wait for like a year before trying u.s again. some people use desperation to look for visas

Re: USA Visit Visa Part 2 by Pwhitelaw(m): 5:53pm On Dec 23, 2016
Thanks for the good job on this thread.. I posted my transcript around July about my experience at the US embassy. My visa was rejected due to the fact that I was asked why my wife is not traveling with me. I wish I had saw this thread before applying through an agent. He filled the form saying am married with twins.The vo did not check a single document. I will like to share my transcript once again because I want to reapply and am so confused on what to do due to the misrepresentation....

ME... Goodmorning
V. O.... Morning, your passport plz
ME.... I gave him
V. O... Why are you traveling to the US
ME..... To visit my uncle, and sight seeing
V. O...... Where?
ME....... Newark,
V. O... What do you want to see in newark
ME...... Brookdale Park and the Newark museum.
V. O.... What is your uncle occupation
ME.... He is a social worker with the state of New Jersey. He was typing for like 30secs
V. O.... Are you married
M. E..... Yes
V. O.... With kids
ME....... Yes
V. O..... Why are you not traveling with your wife
ME...... Our annual leaves differ and she have to be at work till when she gets her annual leave in August.
V. O..... I think you should go with her.. he gave me the yellow paper without checking any of the documents.

The misrepresentation on the form is that am married with twins which was done out of ignorance. I have no travel experience. Plz advise me on what to do. Thanks

As you know meeting is different from conference your answer to that question shouldn't be to boost your career... You're career is boosted already just attending the meeting on behalf of your firm.. what you should be talking about is what will happen or take place in the meeting.

As in, its sad.
Other countries, its like a formality to get a US Visa. They even have something called ESTA, you just pay a fee and fill in the form and just submit it online (I don't think you have to attend an interview) and board a plane and arrive at your POE in the US, a short interview with the CBP and that's all.


ESTA is for visa waiver countries. And even then, it's no guarantee.
I know a friend who has a U.K. Passport but his ESTA was denied
