wuki: Not sure how and why the obvious is not coming through. It's common knowledge what certain states in the US are known for. If your reasons for visit seem unusual, there may be doubt. This is not unique to MN. It applies to all states. A tourist may want to go skiing in Hawaii. This is possible, and I have done it. But highly unusual/out of the normal for that destination. If that is the stated reason for visit, it may raise doubt in the mind of the VO. Just saying, a story that doesnt hang through could contribute to doubt and even be a reason for denial. 1 Like |

Could you please tell us what would have made OP’s story “hang” in a way that going on vacation and visiting a landmark in an extremely cold state couldn’t have? Perhaps if he had family in MN or if he was visiting NJ instead? Is that sort of the idea here or I’m I misunderstanding you? Mancala: |

wuki: OP wants to visit an obscure, unremarkable landmark in the largest indoor mall in America as a primary reason for visiting the state and at the low tourist season.. Begs further questions in my opinion. This is my opinion only and what makes more sense to me. When asked for itinerary, he could have mentioned plans to visit some of these destinations/attractions that MN is known for. It makes it more believeable to me. Canal park in Duluth Skiing in Lutsen or just visit for spectacular views Mennehaha falls Eden Prairie ice castles Lake superior ice caves Gunflint trail Snowmobiling … Waconia snowmobile trails Visit an art Museum Tour a craft Brewery. Alternatively, visiting family and and wanting to visit Nickeloden universe in addition is more plausible. If you are a fan of Nickelodeon, and willing to fly thousands of miles to visit one of their theme parks in the US as a primary reason, the obvious choice is the NJ location. Its much larger, much better and overall airfare will be cheaper and more direct. For example, what would you think if a tourist wanted to visit Nigeria with the primary reason of visiting a Nigerian open air market, and the choice was Agbowo market opposite U.I. in Ibadan? Wouldnt that strike you as odd? Wouldnt you know that Ariaria or Balogun or Alaba or Onitsha main market would be more obvious choices, barring any other motives? 7 Likes |

Yosfa: Your transcript is not fully detailed! Are you comfortable sharing how much you earn on the internet? If no ignore this question! If yes,how much did you tell the VO you earn? Also,the travel history! Did you mention the country(s) you’ve been? If yes,can you list them here? |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by seyewest(m): 7:35am On Dec 13, 2019 |
Mancala: To be honest I aligned with your view not like @Wuki is wrong, the main issue here is that before late 2017, their reason for travel to U.S won't be an issue at all but the applicants did not help themselves by not doing proper research of where they want to visit and if the Nickelodeon park in NJ was chosen they can even include visiting New York City as part of their visit. While @Wuki stand is that choice of place to visit shouldn't be a reason for denial but as at now it is, and it's unfortunate that applicant still use 2013-2017 tactics to apply for U.S visa. As applicant we need to do better by working on your ''ties'' which overall will make you a better person. 1 Like |

Yosfa: The system gave you that visa but she override it after calling you back, try to re-apply as soon as possible and apart from visiting for just wedding include things like sight seeing and shopping for the New Year, you know things that will add money to the U.S Economy and also don't forget to tell them that you're the only one representing your family. 4 Likes |

seyewest: ‘The system’. Hold on! Are you saying there’s a ‘thing’ that decides if you get the visa or not apart from the VO? Like they typed the OP’s profile into it and wait for the green light? 2 Likes |

Thanks for your good advice, anyway I told the vo have traveled to Ethiopia about 6 times, turkey and Togo, Ghana, don't just know why she called me back and start typing by telling me sorry and she even took back my passport and refusal paper from me, after typing for about 5 min, she just shake her head and say so so sorry reapply |

Hello, I paid for US visa March this year but changed my mind about applying cos I could not afford to leave my business. The business is too young and growing very fast and wont want to disappoint client in the name of traveling to the US. A friend told me the fee is for one year and after a year it will be useless. I have no reason traveling to US anytime soon and also do not want to 'dash' US my money. Please advice! |

Yosfa: There you go! Ghana and these african countries are a red flag at the embassy! They feel like you made these trips just to have a travel history to enhance your chance of getting a US visa! What i think happened in your case! The VO bought your story and wanted to issue you the visa but was taking the final ‘go ahead’ from a superior or a fellow VO (All that typing might be a chat with another VO or a superior) then the person advised the VO not to issue it! What you should do,reapply and if you don’t have stamps to Ghana and togo on your passport,don’t bother mentioning these 2 countries when the travel history question comes up again! Good luck! Edit : I made this comment because of 1-2 applicants who said the VO didn’t regard (Not verbally) their trips to Ghana as a travel history! Alot of 9-5 guys travel to West african countries for trainings etc and people visit these neighboring african countries for other reasons that has nothing to do with getting a US visa at all! 1 Like |

alimatuu: You shouldn't have paid if your business was young and growing fast and you can't leave it. Option for you is to apply, get the visa and plan a trip anytime in the next 2 years. So just do that. |

Pls reapply immediately. I asked someone and was told she changed her decision, tried to correct it and met with a glitch. That is the reason for all the apology and advice by VO to reapply Yosfa: 1 Like |

UhnNah: Don't lead her astray or give her in correct advice, visiting or traveling to Togo or Ghana is not bad especially for someone with good travel history, I'm planning to do a West Africa tour by January ending, does that mean I won't be issue U.S visa? No I think the most important thing is having expansive travel history, mix your travel, a little of Europe, East Africa, Middle East, West Africa and Asia. 3 Likes |
