Are you still in need of cheap ticket? if yes just email me direct with my username and add yahoo dot com.
Seungbenga: Okay thanks for the info. But please what do you mean by online presence! You mean good social media handle to include in my application?
Exactly, you can't be bashing Nigeria, talking about how you can't wait to leave and Nigeria and expect U.S Embassy to issue you visa. There's repercussion for our footprints online.
Seungbenga: Hello Seyewest, i have my b1b2 interview coming up soon. I'm going for my aunt 50th birthday in November, 2022 and also spend a few days with my cousins during my annual leave this year. (That's genuine) I have a virgin passport and no travel history, my interview is to hold in Abuja. I'm a forex trader and I've been the accountant at my work place since January 2019 with a very good pay! I'm single but will be engaged in Dec. Please what are my chances? Its my first US trial
I have to be honest with you, they won't issue you visa, why not get quality travel history, start with Dubai, Turkey, UK, EU... apart from that you need strong ''ties'' like marriage, kid(s), very good job and online presence.... good luck
NOBIAMAKA: The Guru's in the house i need an advice,
My family visa interview was supposed to be in Lagos embassy on the 7th April 2022 and few days to the date it was rescheduled for January 2023 .
We have now relocated to Abuja.
Kindly advice me on 1. if it is possible to move the interview from Lagos to Abuja. 2. Our DS -160 information has changed what should we do Your response is highly appreciated. Thank you
my advice is for you to keep the Lagos date because if you tamper with it, you won't get 2023 dates for Abuja.
Doubuzofficial: Wow that one long sha but help me attend to these questions too oga mi
I have my F1 visa now and i've been hearing about Point of Entry.
1: Is it a must my flight to the states is on a return ticket?
2: i haven't been vaccinated, is it compulsory i get vaccinated?
3: What is Yellow pages? is it a POE requirement ?
4: Asides my i-20 and my admission letter, what other documents should i have on and Lastly
5: How much should i have in hand while going (in dollars)
1) No, one way ticket is okay reason why people prefers return is because it's cheaper than 1 way.
2) This is from CDC website '' As of 12:01AM ET on June 12, 2022, CDC will no longer require air passengers traveling from a foreign country to the United States to show a negative COVID-19 viral test or documentation of recovery from COVID-19 before they board their flight. For more information, see Rescission: Requirement for Negative Pre-Departure COVID-19 Test Result or Documentation of Recovery from COVID-19 for all Airline or Other Aircraft Passengers Arriving into the United States from Any Foreign Country.''
3)You mean yellow card.... Yellow card is a health certificate card use mostly for travel within Africa, you won't need it to visit U.S.A.
4) Hold all the document you use to apply for the school, your primary, secondary and University certificate... every document necessary.
5) At least $3000, I hope you've sorted Accommodation?
Let me know when you're ready for your flights. we can work something out.
AfonjaBoston: Reach out to Seyewest he might be able to hook you up or you can do pay small small by wakanow. Dont go and put yourself in unnecessary gbese because you wan travel oo
Correct, flights to U.S is on the high side but we can work something out... thanks Afonja omo ilorin....
iyanuakin: Hello Thanks to the gurus Here to fulfill my promise Took off late from lagos on Saturday night
Thank you all once again Note- once you hve nothing to hide and you’re genuine about what you're here for and God by your side no issues at all… Lemme enjoy my remaining 8 days
Vigorousguy: I have been a silent reader, I wish to share my own interview transcript at Abuja embassy. I went with my aunt and her husband who is in his 80s. We planned to attend my cousins graduation last year but because of delay with appointment we couldn't. Vo have you been to America? My uncle several times, me NO. VO to me are you married my response was not yet. VO how long do you want to stay. My uncle response as long as I want reason that he is retired. My aunt 1 month. My response was I want to use my annual leave to spend 2 weeks. VO started typing up and down and there was silence. VO to me why have you never travelled? I smiled and said I have never been opportuned that is why I want to visit this time. VO what do you do? I work as a branch manager to a bank. VO to my uncle how long have I lived with them he responded over 18 years. VO brought out a white paper and collected our passport. I just collected our passports from DHL this night. Just to raise some hopes, I'm in my early 30s, single and have never visited any country. I got US visa at my 1st application.
Good news finally.... having a good job helps sometimes Let us keep having faith.
NotsonewMary: I have received some help on this forum and I feel I should give back because it might be useful to 1 or more people.
My mum’s visa was just issued this morning (Abuja Dropbox)
I was a bit worried because of her length of stay the two times she visited me in the past. First time she stayed for 4 months ( I just had a baby); on her 2nd visit few months after the 1st, she spent 5 months.
I know being a retiree might have helped her case; but at least I’m glad she wasn’t refused and called in for a follow up physical interview because a couple of people made it seem like everyone that spent greater than 6weeks or 3months was being called in for further explanation on that.
1. Since B1/B2 non-immigrant visa is 2years, If I want to travel to US, and was interviewed by the VO and I tell him/her that I will be staying in US maximum of 3weeks and instead I Stayed more than 1years for me to Work.. did I break any rules?
Reason I think no rules braked is because I didn't exceed the 2years limit.
Kindly help out with the question, am confused
Why not tell them you want to stay for 1 year at the embassy? if that does not sit well with you why tell them 3 weeks and stay behind for a year? This singular act would affect those who have genuine intention of staying for just 3 weeks.
