I have already shared my experience . The best you can get is to be considered for a waiver because even old mothers as old as 80 years are not given their visa. I suspect most people less than 40 will get a worse result and no consideration for a waiver.

The waiver is not necessarily age dependent. Those who are immediate relatives qualify automatically for the waiver application irrespective of their age.

Spouses and children under 21..yes?

We need more people who have interviewed to share so we can understand the scope of this thing better.

This was the response I got from my immigration lawyer . So sad

He hasn’t told you anything of value in my opinion. All these were obvious right from the beginning and I believe actually to show how much contempt America has for the leadership of Nigeria . Possibly thinking that if they are able to cause us younger ones sufficient discomfort we will elect good leaders next time instead of running away .
As for the preparation he is advising you about, I think your prayers may be even more important than the documents requested. God help us all

@Felifeli please can i mail you in private please

Shior ��� why do you always think everyone would always Wana run away?

Has anyone yet had any successful interview this week ?

The ban is real!!

Amigo101:
The ban is real!!

why do you said so

ibe003:
why do you said so

The ban took effect a couple of days back. They have made it clear that no one for the immigrant category of visa would be given a visa. I'm guessing that even if your are successful,they would hold your passport back. Why?!.. The ban.

Yes the Ban has taken effect!

Ones you are invited, go with all you advised documents and anyother you think you cud be asked for. The Interview will take it normal course without undue pressure. By default you have been moved to Wavier status -ones the exercise goes fine, you are handed the white sheet, your passport is collected and you told... due to the Ban your VISA will not be issue now, until the wavier is checked if the wavier turns out fine, you are contacted and advised to pick it up vis the DHL/online platform, if not - you are also called to pick the passport up while your status is placed on Administrative Progress.

Waiver is subjected to test amongst which are ;
1. if your been denied cud course undue hardship ( mainly for minor, handicap, fully dependent etc)
2. Your present into USA is not likely to expose America to any form of terrorism attack etc ( I think the possible hit will be the Northern Muslim in Nigeria, if you don't fall into this, then you are likely to get a GOOD tick for this line)
3. Your admission is going to be a sort of gain to America govt ( this ofcourse is on income generation for the Government- TAX, you got a profession, you will be employed into the workforce and you earn income and the Government take there share in form of TAX. if this check comes out good, then you are most likely going to get the wavier approved).

So no panic on wavier things, it is just going to be aslight delay( to allow for the wavier check) unlike the previous, where you know your faith there-and-then. I don't expect the wavier check to exceed a month thing.

Good luck to all of us.

thank you

Very insightful. Thanks @feb20Obinna

I think it is a Good sign that Interviews are still being Scheduled and Passports are collected!! At least there wont be a backlog when they inevitably lift the ban!

This whole night mare would soon be over. Fingers Crossed

@Feb20Obinna thank you very much for this info

The ban is into full effect..these are screenshots from a forum on visa journey. So sad..its well

Apparently, visas are still be issued..goodnews!.update from that woman’s husband’s passport that was held back to consider for waiver about a week ago. I also heard your passport is been kept back to just do some background checks to know if u have any history on any form of terrorist attack or tendencies... once clean you’re good to go. Lets keep praying.

TruthFM:
Guys I had my interview on Thursday the 20th and my visa was approved. I asked the VO after the interview if I won't get affected by the ban and he said no, he added that the visa would be issued the same day as he has everything he needs. I checked my case status yesterday and it was already issued and to be picked up hopefully this week. I can't say the same for those who were told to bring additional document as approvals can't be made until the submitted documents are confirmed which won't fly through as visa issuance is now on merit basis.

Goodluck to everyone who is in line and I hope this ban gets lifted ASAP.

Good day house, pls I need more explanation on this DS 5540 form!
My husband is the petitioner and sponsor and he said I don’t need the form
I’m confused Abeg ��

Get the form. Fill it composely at the comfort of your house.Go with it. Keep it and return with it if they didn't ask for it. I believe you will not do a good job filling the form under tension at the embassy.

Maybe her husband was interviewed on 21st, the day after which the ban took effect. I don't think anyone has after that date recorded success so far. Let us keep fingers crossed nevertheless.

Her husband was interviewed on the 24th of February..check my previous posts..I did screenshot it and sent..I’ve heard of about 3 other issued visas after the ban..just that it takes time now after ban..like a week after, unlike before that’s just like a day or 2.

Sorry can you share your experience regarding your interview yesterday 04-03-2020. Thanks

olamie:
My siblings just got their interview date for March. What are the chances? The IL came in today. Does it mean there is a cut off for the whole travel ban thing?

Can you share your interview experience! Thanks

Okay, jolly good. What about people who don't get alerted to collect their visa after one week. Does that mean they are to go and collect their passport back?
