Help Needed. Getting An African Student Ainto U.S. From Canada by Jayalp(op):
Hi-

Hope someone can help us. I am a retired American teacher who has fallen in love with a young woman from Tanzania. She has been turned down 5 times for an American visa (two times as a tourist/three times as a student though she has been accepted into a U.S. community college in NYC)...reasons usually given is that my sponsorship as family friend is not trustworthy and fear she will not return to her country

Now we have applied for, and obtained, a Canadian Student visa as she has been accepted into a college in Ontario. She will be arriving next week for term beginning May 8

Our goal is to get her a US Student via ASAP. Although we expect to get married, getting approval and visa that way would take much too long

MANY QUESTIONS:

1- Might she have success in getting transfer to US college in Canada even BEFORE attending college in Canada?

2- If not, what are chances of getting visa after one term

3- Re possible interview at US embassy, what questions might she be asked not asked before?

4- Any suggestions about how to deal with interview, also greatly appreciated

5- Any other ideas about getting her to NYC GREATLY appreciated

That is not a smart thing to do considering her refusal record. Why not allow her to finish her studies in Canada before getting her over to US?
