Beautyaddy:


Loool!...The bottom line is that she's trying to abscond permanently to the US and the smart VO caught her.

That's very obvious, don't make it sound like you just made a "discovery".

Sadsad...its people like you that give us a bad name, you're not likely to get that visa anytime soon except in your dreams offcourse.

Hello house, I need your advice and I Kindly ask for it . Ejo, Biko, so ni.

My cousin (Aunty’s daughter) recently got her US PR after her dad filled for her (the dad is a US Citizen).

My Aunty is a baby mama and not legally married to the father of the girl.

The daughter in question is just 13 years and is planning to go to the US in a couple of weeks to Visit the dad.

Question is this: It will be the first time the 13 year old will be flying let alone traveling on her own (if she eventually does) but the mom wants to follow her.

Q: IS THIS ENOUGH GROUND FOR A US VISA APPLICATION?

UPDATE:

She applied nonetheless, Visa was denied yesterday in Lagos.

Actually, from her initial posts on this thread her intentions weren't obvious. She played the victim who was deceived by an agent and you lot were fooled. Are you just attacking BA because of her/his alliance with TW and choose to distort a very obvious truth?

Sadsad, I think I understand your desperation for leaving Nigeria....
That's if any your stories are correct cos you seem to be spinning a whole lot of BS lies. If you are who I think you are from your previous moniker, then I'd advise you create a new email address for your future visa attempts to other countries.

That very likely is the reason, BeautyAddy will have her fair share too (not like she wasn't turning me off too with her subsequent bolded post repetition though). If Twoods was the one that bursted this Sadsad in his usual "annoying" way, the likelihood of the lot here going after him instead of the Sadsad person would have been high still. I checked her profile out yesterday before Ayenikunle dropped some pointer to the same without raising alarm yet (likely because he's not even sure what may come off it here), and others took over, not like I'm supporting her or faulting those tearing her apart now at all oh! I was just hoping Twoods will be the first to see it and have her bursted just to have a clear picture of what this hounding is really about...

But why Twoods own dey sweet us for inside always naim be my quarrel?

Reine22:
You see why it’s almost impossible to take the average Nigerian at face value anymore? It’s as though their default setting is to be dishonest. See this ‘tear jerking’ tale for instance. That’s why people (VOs, Twoods, etc) adopt a guilty until proven otherwise stance. And you can’t blame them.

You see this post above? Sound! Nobody liked it because the name Twoods was there in it.... Simps!

AfonjaBoston:




These so called visa officers can be so rude.
Why do they always answer like that when asked "what the reason for denial is" ? I don't get it!

An average oyinbo man even me sef will be highly offended if in ANY setting somebody responds like that to me.

Courtesy demands you tell them by word of mouth.

Shiorrrrrrrrrr

for transcript:

Vo: Good morning
Me: Good morning

Vo: Pass me your passport
Me: here pls

Vo: Why do you want to go to Philadelphia?
Me: for shopping/ tourism

Vo: how long?
Me: 12days

Vo: Have you travelled before:
Me: Yes, to Dubai

Vo: you are married
Me: yes

Vo: any children?
Me: no

Vo: are pregnant
Me: yes.

Vo: I'm sorry, you're not eligible for a visa. Handed the white paper
Me: why?

Vo: she said the reason is stated inside the white paper.

My people, Na so I waka oh.

You needed to prove your intention was to visit and only visit. You’re obviously pregnant and you say you want to visit for 12 days. The VO will assume you plan to have your child there without demonstrating that you are capable of paying your bills. He/she would see it as misrepresentation. Next time, prepare well.

Sharonlass10:
Pls nairalander, I want to find out if I can reapply for us visa again before the end of this month. I was among the people they issued refusal today. Can I apply for emergency, base on my delivery next month or do u guys think? Ur advices will welcomed

Good you owned up the pregnancy, maybe because it's obvious sha. But you see? Your real plan is to birth in the US. So, why didn't you do the necessary? Except maybe you didn't want to pay, or can't prove same, which of course then should make your refusal a justified one in fact.

Forget about reapplying, just "jejelly" give birth here and try for a US visa some other time, even if it were possible for you to even get an emergency interview date sef, you won't get that visa for birthing (you have already obviously deliberately engaged in concealed deceit), at least not easily at all.

Save yourself the stress (not like you will get interview date sha), and maintain the advantage your being upfront about your pregnancy during this last interview will afford you in the future....

Nigerians generally are usually economical with the truth and like sugarcoating issues.

Sharonlass10:
Over rude oh.

You chose to waste someone's time with your lies and you are talking about "rudeness"?
You are due next month, so you went for a visa interview with an 8months pregnancy and chose to tell the VO you are going for shopping/ tourism, do you guys think these people are fools?
You could have prepared yourself with burden of proof and necessary documents and gotten your visa but you didn't.

A friend can't find the receipt number he used the last time in booking his appointment sometime in February. He needs it to book another appointment.. What should he do pls?

Not sure. But I think he may need that receipt to enter the Consulate for interview. So, it is best he finds it. Perhaps he can try to visit GTB to see if they can reprint it for him. All the best.

Hi Chips,
I guess you mean applied/apply for a visit visa to the US. Recent comments on here indicate that there may not be available dates in July/August. If your friend has a medical emergency, he can try to read up about that. If it is for holidays, he can plan his holidays for Christmas. Alternatively, he can keep checking daily and throughout the nights, in case an early date appears (this perhaps happens when someone with an early date cancels his/her appointment, thereby creating space a new person to book). But as you may reason, holidays/tourism should not be cause for sleepless nights in advance. #peace

Canada warns Nigerian asylum seekers crossing from US: There's 'no free ticket'
By Morgan Winsor
May 9, 2018, 4:32 PM ET

The Canadian government said it's working with U.S. visa officials in Nigeria to mitigate the surge of migrants coming to the United States seeking a safe haven in neighboring Canada.
There's a growing number of Nigerian asylum seekers who legally travel to the United States on a visa and stay for a brief time before attempting to cross the border into Canada, according to the Canadian government. In response, three Canadian officials have been stationed to work with U.S. visa officials in the Nigerian city of Lagos to "combat abuse of U.S. travel documents," the government announced in a press release Monday.

"Coming across the border in a way that seeks to circumvent our procedures is no free ticket to Canada," Canada's Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness Ralph Goodale said in a statement. "We will continue to ensure an orderly managed border, including the compassionate treatment of those who genuinely need Canada's protection. And we will continue to work with the United States to deter the misuse of travel documents that has helped drive the influx."

Canada's Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Ahmed Hussen will also travel to the West African nation this month to meet with Nigerian officials about the issue.

"Our government’s priority first and foremost is to ensure that all laws are followed to protect the safety and security of Canadians," Hussen said in a statement.

The U.S. Embassy and Consulate in Nigeria did not respond to ABC News' request for comment Wednesday.

More than 25,000 asylum seekers were apprehended by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, mostly in Quebec, as they crossed "irregularly" into Canada from the United States between the ports of entry from January 2017 through March of this year. The influx of irregular border-crossers appears to be on the rise, and there's concern the number will soar as the weather warms up.

The number of asylum seekers apprehended by the national police force in the first three months of this year was more than double the amount in the same period last year. And last year, the number intercepted at the border more than tripled in July and August, according to figures from the Canadian government.

Many of the asylum seekers crossing into Canada last year were Haitians who feared they would lose their temporary protected status (TPS) in the United States, after President Donald Trump's administration announced it will end the program for Haitian immigrants by July 2019.

So far this year, most of the asylum seekers crossing into Canada by land have been Nigerian citizens, the Canada Border Services Agency confirmed to ABC News.

"Nigerians do not want to settle in the U.S. but in Canada. It is much easier for a citizen of Nigeria to obtain a tourist visa for the U.S. than for Canada," Stephane Handfield, an immigration lawyer in Montreal, told ABC News in French. "So they get a U.S. tourist visa, stay a few days in the U.S. and cross the Canadian border."

Handfield said it's also easier for asylum seekers to obtain refugee status in Canada than in the United States.

Nigerians are fleeing their home country for a number of reasons, such as poverty, persecution and violent conflict, including Boko Haram's years-long insurgency. The Nigeria-based jihadist group, which seeks to establish an Islamic state, has killed more than 20,000 people and displaced some 2.3 million since 2009, according to the latest figures from the United Nations.

"When people are fleeing persecution, whether they're in Nigeria or elsewhere, they will take whatever method and route is available to them," John Cockell, spokesman for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees in Canada, told ABC News. "International humanitarian law recognizes this and that's why asylum seekers are not penalized for entering a country using irregular means, as many choose to do in the case of Canada."

"We feel [Canadian] authorities have actually done a very good job with managing the increased numbers," Cockell added.

The Canadian government said it will build new facilities for short-term accommodations at a popular border crossing into the province of Quebec from New York state. Canadian officials will also fast-track work permits for asylum seekers, so they can financially support themselves and their families while they wait to see if their claim for protection is granted.

"While we adhere to international conventions and want to offer asylum to those fleeing persecution and war, the fact remains that there are very specific laws, rules and criteria to be respected in order to find refuge in our country," Canada's Minister of Transport Marc Garneau said in a statement.
