Hello and happy Sunday to the house, kindly help a Sis as this is urgent. Must my host first take the invitation letter to the U.S embassy over there and get it stamped before sending it to me? or he should only write the letter, sign it then send it to me?

US Embassy does not look at invitation letters.

Hahahahahha... just read your POE.. i think those immigration officers at O'hare were handpicked based on being Racist and an Idiot.

My experience in 2016 December was just something else! I wasnt even pregnant then ooo. Resigned from my job cause i had a better offer in another coy, na so i say make i go see Oga ( he was doing his Msc at Northwestern University) and i had 2 month break before i start the new job ooo.

Flew Turkish from Lag to Chicago.. got to O'Hare at about past 6pm.

cbp- passport please, how long are you staying
Me- 53days
cbp- why? How many bags did you come with? How much do you have? Dont you dare lie to me.
Me- vacation... 1 box and $1000 cash and debit card
Cbp - you are a liar, you are a terrible liar, you will be sent back. Please step aside
Me- ANGRRRRRRRRY AND CONFUSE (Whats with the liar thing)

He closed his unit and asked me to follow him ooo.

Got into one Interrogating Room (My 1st time with the secondary inspection)

Na so i sit from past 6pm to 11pm!!!! Got up and went to an officer told him i need sanitory pads.. He took me to one room opened 1 big drawer different sanitary pads (����) this ppl mean business.

Same officer called me in after 15min of changing up.

2nd cbp - Can i have your phone
Me- sure
2nd cbp- please unlock it
I did, he came back and asked me to follow him into another office

2nd cbp- who is xxxxx (oga's name)
Me- My husband
2nd cbp- how long are you here for?
Told him 53days, asked what i do back in Nigeria, told him and he said what about the new job? (This man sha went thru my mails) told him thats the reason im staying that long. Said okay, asked me to go wait outside.

Came back with my passport . I opened and saw that he stamped me in for 48days.

Me- Uhmmm you stamped me in for
2nd cbp- yes i did
Me- Okay, please do you know if the turkish office here is still open
2nd cpb - why? What do you want?
Me- (in my mind... I WANT TO BUY AKARA) I want to move my ticket to this exact date you want me to leave so i don't come back here
2nd cbp- will you pay for it?
Me- YES

He took my passport went in.. came back almost immediately and when i checked he has changed the 48days to 6month

Me- Thanks
2nd cbp- You welcome... enjoy your stay


Na so i go find my load ooo... got to the house at almost 1am. Oga said they called him to know if he was married and expecting me.

I swear then say i no go EVER use that airport.. errmmmm 4month later i still went thru Chicago ����� but no question asked. Maybe because na 1week i plan stay sha.

Oh no!

Those guys really do what they like... And there is nothing anyone can do about it. When I told my husband about my experience he said if it was him they'd have probably deported him because he won't have been calm at all. Lol

same thing they did to my friend and her hubby. They got visa for vacation she went to give birth then did dropbox and didn't indicate B2, she travelled again to give birth. when she told me i told her to change her poe to New York but the hubby was too proud to take advice. He said he has sent change of intent letter. when they got there it was same "You are a liar matter" Then they didnt have cash all they had was money in card. That's how they deported them.

Thumbs up to you Sis!

Oga Overlord77 sir; the Chicago POE remains on the news still oh! You dey see am? Greetings....

Plz my people.. I need clarifications, I couldn't access my daughters page again on DS 160 application portal, so I wrote the embassy about it. The response is as attached. I understand that I have to Start another application for her and generate another ID which I have done. But what to do aside printing the application page to take along for interview is what I don't understand considering the clause that states that ID numbers must conform with the ID on the schedule for interview... Plz I need help here.

Lol, I've seen it ooo and I wonder why. Guess we were favoured by God cos the CBP officers we met were courteous and not hostile.

I think you should log in to your profile.
Change her old DS-160 number to the new one. Print the new confirmation page as well. If you have trouble changing it via that option you can call customer care, they'll get it done.

Hello house, who read about Trump's decision to end citizenship to non immigrants, to those who just come into the country give birth and leave.

I don't know when this will happen but it is worth noting.
