Do immigration officers in the USA ask on why the kids are on vacation in the USA when they should be in school. like going on vacation to the usa in mid september. could that be a problem

Not at all..... we may not even share the same school timeline.

Hello Guys, I flew into USA 2 days ago. I booked KLM but when I went for check in they had moved me to Delta Airlines. So I flew direct Delta from Germany to Detroit. Online entertainment was okay. As per oyinbo food, I don't fancy it. Besides I don't eat certain foods so in my own accessment food was zero! They shared ice cream, nice looking chocolate which sweet tooths would like but I didn't eat it. The main course looked like a disaster. Next time I would cook and take with me on the flight. I was expecting the nice kind of Menu Emirates served me me on my Dubai flight. Flight was okay but I created drama during landing. It was scary. One kid was laughing at me. The landing from Detroit to JFK was better though.
At POE in Detroit
We met hundreds of young Chinese boys and girls with F1 visas. There was constant announcement for translators. Was wondering why anyone will come to an English speaking country to study and not be able to understand simple questions in English. A CBP official was saying same thing too. But they let most of them in.
My questions were: Passport please. What do you do? Why are you here? Conference
How long are you staying? 2 weeks
Where are you going to? Anything agriculture to declare?? No. That was it, nothing else. Stamped in for 6 minths. No questions about how much I brought in. Then I went to baggage claim picked my suitcase off to my connecting Delta flight. Food on domestic flight was only 50 naira juice and 10 naira biscuit. My initial conference during interview was for a conference in July however I didn't travel till now. I was supposed to go to San Francisco but I said I was going to Washington DC. At interview I said i will spend 6 days at POE i said 2 weeks, it was not a problem at all. The change of city and travel date but was not an issue at all however I stuck to still attending a conference. They didn't even ask for the conference invite sef. I was just scared of POE for nothing!
Mehn I can't still get over the horrific train ride from JFK it's shocking that a country as great as America has horrible transport system. The littering on the streets is another thing I don't get.
Can't wait to be back in Germany jare. Thanks Seyewest. Chop

You get mouth.. Enjoy your stay in U.S of A.... You too chop

Abuja embassy is currently close indefinitely.....Try book Lagos consulate!

Stop lying and passing wrong info... ABUJA US EMBASSY HAS STARTED WORKING SINCE THURSDAY 23RD OF AUGUST, 2018

LadyGuinivere:
Greetings and Felicitations to Una ooooo

LadyG... Mama of the Mama... welcome to our humble abode... please share your POE with us na...

deybholar:
Thanks for answering. What about the question of flying to New York instead of Dallas as stated during my application? Do you have any idea if it would pose problems at the POE?

None at all... explain clearly why you decided to fly to New York instead of Dallas.

deybholar:
Hello all. I have a valid US visa that would expire in February 2019. I plan to travel in November but someone told me I need to have 6 months left on my visa to be granted entrance at the POE. Also when I was applying, the intent was to visit Dallas but I have now changed my mind and want to visit New York. Hope this won't pose any problems? Thank you.

I know it's 6 month validity on your International Passport not on visa. You can travel even with 1 month left on your visa validity, it is left for the CBP to admit you and decide on how long you will stay in U.S, if you don't want such stress, you can renew your visa.

Doxy1989:
Good evening everyone, my mum's visa interview in Abuja was rescheduled to this Friday. The problem is that she can't find the print out of her original interview appointment. She sent an email to Support@ustraveldocs.com asking for assistance. They responded acknowledging they are aware her interview was rescheduled. That's all.
Please gurus in the house, what else can we do? The original interview confirmation is still showing in the "appointment history tab" on her profile.
Please help

You have to keep stressing them.

bamdem:
@seyewest this guy tried to upload passport while booking

You can't upload picture in appointment page... you can only upload your picture inside the DS160 form

hopeful2008:

You must upload your passport photograph in your DS160 form.

LadyGuinivere:

Apart from the blatant fraud, the fellow's bio data and name will change because he wants to deny his relationship with his wife.

Peradventure that now works.... Which it won't, he will now go and live happily ever after illegally. SMH

Check the U.S Embassy website for Nigeria.

N.B. You can go along with your Bank Statement but they may not check it. (Visa fees, DS160 confirmation, appointment page and your international passport)

[quote author=Amakaycakes post=70608888][/quote]Take your time to go through the thread, you will get more than enough solution to your problem.
This thread has changed now, people will hardly attend to your type of questions because it has been attended to more than 30 times.

Lady g

Unfortunately, you won't be able to print your submitted DS160 form, since what you filled is nothing but the truth you have nothing to fear or worry about.

This is wrong on so many levels.... I'm short of words but just know that, you may not be able to visit U.S.

bamdem:

I don't work at the Embassy, this question is beyond me.

Lase2018:
Hello house, Thank you for ur constant readiness to help. I applied for B1/B2 visa sometimes June dis year and my scheduled interview is for first week in October but my passport photograph was not uploaded and this has been bothering me because my aunt had her interview last week,her passport was not uploaded, she was then given the opportunity to go upload her passport at the nearby cafe at the embassy. Unfortunately for her when she got, she wasn't even asked any question, she was denied.Please I want to know if I can upload mine now without it affecting my confirmation number.
Thank you guys. waiting for the gurus' response

Rescan your picture or inform the photographer to send you the softcopy of the passport so you can upload it directly from your mobile phone or laptop.

Oyinu:
ATTENTION: LadyG.
Please, i need your expert advice on this;

What are our chances of B1/B2 Visa for me and my 4 yr old son. My wife is already in the US on a visit visa and has given birth there.
Thank you.

Hope your dear wife applied for medical visa?

Chriscero:
Many thanks Seye. We leave in a few weeks and I will share my POE experience by His Grace.

Please do.

olumig:
@Seyewest any advice

Use another browser..... When was your last interview?

Polystar:
Hope you have the email address he used for your application, if not open a new email and fill a new ds160 form after which you will call U.S Embassy customer care number for further action.


Thanks sir. I av the email and the password

Fill another DS160 for every applicant and inform the embassy of the new changes, they will correct it for you.

Sooredaniel:
Thank you so much. I checked google map and I realized Chicago has the nearest Poe to Minneapolis and it’s quite affordable. I’ll be doing just that. I believe I can book the bus trip right here in Nigeria?

Yes please do that asap.... You can use your Nigerian ATM card to pay for trip on Greyhound website.

Polystar:
Good day house. Well done for the wonderful job you are doing on this thread. Kindly help me by providing answers to my questions. My cousin filled a tourist visa application for me and my family. After filling for me, he sent me part of the information he filled after which we had a misunderstanding. Now my question is, how can I view those information he filled for me on my ds-160 form for me and my family to know how to tackle any questions we come across in our interview. Mind you, our interview as been scheduled for 28th August 2018 and we are left with little or no information. House, pls, urgently answer my question. God bless you all.

Hope you have the email address he used for your application, if not open a new email and fill a new ds160 form after which you will call U.S Embassy customer care number for further action.

princelynx:
Please, the gurus in the house. Please, how can I pay for a conference? What's the procedure and easiest means of payment. Thank you.

How do you expect us to know, when we're not the one going for the conference. Look for payment icon on the conference website.

Ashmark:
Dear Nairalander,

Kindly assist with this.

Am applying for B1/B2 visa, I have a job where I earn 200k month and I have a Limited Liability Company for side hustle.

Am presently doing a Masters degree at Unilag. Do you think this tie is strong enough.

I have a brother in America that will be sending me invite and my major aim is to travel for vacation and come back.

Stop spamming the thread, I'll advise you to read through the thread, you should be able to discern if they will issue you visa or not.

Sooredaniel:
I’m on an F1 visa for a masters program. Do I need return ticket? Also if I choose to go via bus trip from JFK how do I go about ticketing from Nigeria?

I understand you're trying to save funds but planning to take bus from NY to Minneapolis won't save you any fund... Good to know you're on F1 visa, please take time to do your research.

N.B. I will like to make it a bit easier for you by helping you with routing...

Don't fly to New York instead fly directly to Chicago from Nigeria (it will save you travel time and money) then take Greyhound bus from Chicago to St cloud which will cost you around $55.
Goodluck

Sooredaniel:
Please I need advise. I’m about to book a flight. I’m heading to Minneapolis but the flight is too expensive from Lagos. I realized that JFK is cheaper. I am thinking of flying to JFK and maybe join a bus or train to Minneapolis just to cut cost. Would it make sense? Would there be issue at the POE if they ask me why I didn’t book a direct flight to Minneapolis? Hope they wouldn’t think it’s migration intent? What else can I do? I’m actually going to St. Cloud state University

A bus to Minneapolis will surely be much more costlier than airplane.
