Sorry about that, I assumed you were a woman. I would dare say that you have the perfect profile. But again there is the issue of a husband leaving behind his wife and kids for 3 weeks, to visit an Uncle in the US. Now lets realise that these VO's are human beings, some of them, fathers and mothers who probably miss their family and here you are, wanting to go for 3 weeks holiday without your family. It looks somehow.
Here is my recommendation:
- travel to a country, where the visa requirements are like that of the US, with your family.
- then a year later, reapply with your family for a US visa.
How about that?
I know someone might have told you, that leaving your family behind shows that you have a family tie to Nigeria - on the law books that might be the case but a VO might see you as a heartless father who wishes to abandon his family in Nigeria and illegally migrate to the US.
THIS IS MY OPINION, IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT IT WAS THE REASON FOR YOUR REJECTION, I AM JUST PLAYING OUT THE POSSIBILITIES.
ALL THE BEST!

UTILITYMAY:


Married with two girls(twins). Is there anyway I can prove myself on this, apart from merely telling the VO I am married with two kids. Meanwhile, the VO did not even ask all these from me yesterday, I don't know why... As for the aspect of a woman leaving her husband and kids: I am a man.

Thanks Boss.

Some people can be off-key like that you know. This one weak me Abeg!

Good day house, trust everyone is well.

Please I need an advice, I fell a victim of visa agent as they call them.

Sometime last year (Dec) i wanted to apply for US visiting visa so I went through an agent, I gave him all my documents and details.

A week after , he called me to come over that he has filled my form submitted online etc and booked my appointment. While going through the form he printed out , I got to know he didn't use the details I gave him. He used a business name of his choice wch he already have the documents and also said I have an uncle in the US of which I do not know anyone in US.

I wasn't comfortable with all this so I let go of the money I paid for my appointment n put an hold to my travelling plan and didn't attend the interview.

Now I want to apply now, using my real details with my own business name and to book an hotel. Please, I will like to know if the form he submitted last year Dec won't show up in US embassy system or contradict my new application?

Please advice, it's urgent.

Bless!

Do you know if the agent canceled the appointment at the embassy on ur behalf?

Tdadz:

Hi Tdadz, thank you so much for your reply.
I remember during our conversation, I insist I was going to use my own details and not someone else's own.. that I need to feel another form and scheduled another appointment myself, so he cancelled the appointment and he later told me the money was forfeited cos he cancelled it, as I won't be able to use it to reschedule another appointment. I had to let the money go.

So yes, he cancelled the appointment on the platform.

1. Call the customer care and get them to attach a new profile to an email address only you can access.
2. Fill in your new form honestly and truthfully. If you are asked about the previous form/interview you didn't attend, tell them what actually happened.
All the best!

Thank you so much. However in your answer 1, are you saying I shouldn't use the login details the agent used? Then I should call customer care and request my profile to be attached with a new email?

Interviewed yesterday with wifey and my 3 years old son. He was rejecting people upandan. He got irritated with the man before us when he asked what he does and he replied "I own a company". "Can you be specific?" .. He sighed,in a tired voice.

If you use the one he used before, he could do a lot of things and you won't know what he did - cancel your appointment, change your form etc. With the new one, you have sole access to your profile.

Good Morning Guys

I returned from Malaysia in August 2016 after completing a 4 year Bsc. Accounting degree (I didn't return to Nigeria at all until i was done). I obtained my certificates and transcripts and never had any visa related issues or passport troubles for the duration of my study (Not sure if this will improve my chances of getting a US visa).

I plan to pursue a masters degree at University of Minnesota and i already have a friend there that's gonna help with the degree application process. I already read the first page of this thread and then the visa type, price and ds-160 form pages on the US consulate website. My friend over there mentioned the need for me to do something called EducationUSA. I do not know anything about that.

I also don't know if there is anything else i need to take into account. I would appreciate any information thrown my way from our wonderful brothers and sisters in the house, thank you.

As you can see and have read this thread/forum is basically for those visiting the U.S for a short time not less than 6 months.. I believe there's another thread for Studying in U.S.
Good luck in your future endeavors... it's a good day.

That's right, my mistake. Thanks for pointing it out. Let me go and disturb those guys now

hello House please i need your advice. i have applied for a tourist visa twice but was refused. my wife on the other hand has a valid U.S tourist visa (we applied on different times). During my last application, the VO said he wasn't i was gonna come back just maybe of my direct relative in the U.S
Now my question is, am intending applying for the third time and i want to know what i can state on the reason(s) why i was denied being two times.
secondly, my Mum lives in the U.S (mum is U.S citizen) but am thinking of making a Hotel reservation. Can that pose a challenge to my application.
please advice.

Be honest with yourself will you stay or use the hotel when you get to U.S when your mom is living in US and a citizen for that matter? Bros tell your mom to file for you.

lipunchvirus:
please Mrsjohnson22,. can you give me ..email address so you can explain how you fill the form etc... thank you

Mr LiPunch Virus,
Seeing that you are asking people for email addresses and help to fill your form, a little thought.

Most of the form is filled with your data; your name, date of birth, etc, that are best filled by you. Take your time in filling it; if you have specific unanswered questions, you can post them here and many people can try to assist.

If you put the effort to fill the form yourself and have the content clear to you, it will help you to be confident and clear in your interview at the consulate.

As long as the conference organiser did not indicate that the conference is for only locals, you're 100% free to apply. However, the VO has the final decision. For instance, there is a conference in US i recently scheduled an appointment for and i have confirmed if i am good to apply as i'm travelling from Dublin. I emailed them and i also gave them phone calls and i got positive reply. I'm the type that always make sure i provide more than required documents for visa applications, so i always communicate directly with conference organisers by email to confirm the validity & genuineness, where i am coming from to attend the conference. They always give me the best answer.

However, always try to contact the conference organiser and let the organiser know that you're coming from outside the state even though you have indicated that on your online conference registration form.

Least i forgot, if anyone need 100% free conference, let me know, i will try find one for you. Not guarantee, but i will try. I've given just few people and some of them got their US visa with it. Once you should your conference are of interest i will contact you via nairaland mail if i get any for you or not. Pls don't send me pm about this, don't leave your contact details here. If you think i'm going too far in this regard pls do not hesitate to do the needful by exposing me here . Show your interest here and lets help ourselves yes lets help ourselves.. LadyGuinivere abi no be so? Happy weekend to you all!

Please I am interested in conference in Accounting or Finance Management

Congratulations and I'm very happy for you. My own testimony is coming soonest

Sir, Are living in Dublin? If yes, are you holding an Irish Passport or Nigerian Passport. If Nigerian, are you with a visit visa or what kind? And are you applying for US Visa from Dublin or from Nigeria.

@Bolded. Do you have a conference already, or just looking for one?

thank you ma, I Will just pay for visa fee only noting more than that? Because some agents are telling me to bring huge amount of money
