ode! US visa officers check these threads

Don't mind them. That is what I keep saying...

Hi Guys,

Will attend my graduation next week and want to know whether the entry clearance officers sometimes ask the amount of money one is carrying. Will be staying at a hotel costing about $500

How much money would you recommend I have on me

Thanks

They may not ask since it is not medical visit.
On how much you should carry depends on the days you intend to stay.
Lets say a day is $100 for transport and food...(on the high side)
Hotel already taken care of... $500
Shopping...depends on how deep your pocket is...could be in thousands!

Only you can determine how much you need.

I have a similar budget for my trip too. My hotel cost for 11 days is $500. I intend holding $2k in total hope that’s enough.

You will be deported @ the POE.

It's better you apply for a new visa, stating your present intention.

Hello, I wasn’t deported. Sending this from the other side. Gather your facts right and don’t be too rigid in your responses. Thanks anyways.

Got my visa last week, stated i will be traveling middle of June first timer but i just got a contract to execute and i can't even trade this contract for anything which means i won't be able to travel as planned...i hope i can use the the visa to travel for Xmas?

To God be the glory, I got here safely.

Left Nigeria via BA Friday night. Arrived Heathrow terminal 5 and in the process of connecting to terminal 3, those of us who were going to the US via American Airline were directed to a separate queue where my BA ticket was changed to AA. The lady asked how long I would be staying in the US, where I would be staying, where I work and what I do at my place of work. She wished me a safe flight and I joined the bus that took us to terminal 3.

Stayed in Heathrow for 7 hours before boarding AA. I was the only black on that particular flight from Heathrow to Miami. Arrived in Miami and joined the queue for the self service Passport scan, after scanning, I went to join another queue to see the Cpd officer

Cpd: hi, how are you? *smiling
Me: Very tired
Cpd officer: You will be fine, how long are you here for?
Me: told him
Cpd: Business or pleasure
Me: told him
Cpd: you are welcome, enjoy your stay. *gave me my passport
Me: Are you not going to stamp me in and get more details? * smiling
Cpd: *laughed* we have your details already when you used the self service machine to scan your passport. Let me stamp your passport if you insist but it doesn't really matter. * stamps my passport
Me: Laughing too
Thank you, have a great day


Reporting life from Miami, lol.

I was asked such questions when I was going from Amsterdam (KLM) thru Delta Airline the dude was asking so many questions, even asked to see an evidence I worked where I said I worked so I showed him the HR letter I was to show the VO during the interview.

Also was asked who bought the ticket for me lol.. I was like excuse me, what do u mean? then he realized I was almost getting angry he then sent me to a lady that issued me the new boarding pass.

Wonder who those guys are? Airline officers or Immigration officers in mufti or it’s a normal cross checking protocol to everyone traveling to the US
