Well, the possibility of your ordeal is there. Mind you, I didn't even think of you relocating before till you just raised that alarm, felt maybe you wanted to go and visit him initially. It's adding up now, you got my mind stretched and calculating the catch big time. "Primary Applicant" may not really have reasons to relocate, but "oga dependent applicant" may have vamoosed (with or without you being privy to such, particularly when I give attention to that sentence "we have lost contact since the separation" "and divorce letter" dimension from your text above, just like that?), and that now is going to affect you and the kids application, the reason you seem not to know his whereabouts in defence. Lady Guinevere, lol, no offense. That's our way na, hence the bank of knowledge/tricks too. I pray make "we" sister and kids own pure if na the truth of her predicament she express sha ooo

Anyway, no qualms, will be her to share my ordeal when am back right now, packing my baggage for south African conference. Thanks for ur time. Talk to you soon . CHAO

OmoBendel24:


Genuinely will be upfront with you on this (same way the VO will first think I guess). Hope this is not the beginning of a story line to cover your own end of your "former husband" having overstayed and settled in the US sha? Will just follow all the same.

I will be going with my divorce letter and don't see any reason y I should cook up lies. I will never want to leave my lucrative job for a toilet washer or a security personnel. I pray such unfortunate incidence never happens to any of u.
Anyway,na naija people cause am sha. Too desperate to be in the USA.

LadyGuinivere:
@seyotek It is within the vo 's power to ask if you. Are travelling with their father's consent.
The vo may/ may not ask this and like I said before nobody can tell u Your chances.fill your forms properly and hope for the best.
The advice I can give u is To edit out your personal details from your last post.

@Jw haba! Where is the love?!

Kisses ladyG.will do that and pls might be back for more questions if I get stuck editing. God bless ya for me

emjayfay:


For my son, I created a new profile for him because I had a visa already and I felt it was easier that way. At the interview, I wanted to show the VO my husband's passport data page. The VO asked if my husband had a visa. I said no and the VO said there was no need to show his passport. So, I can safely say that It would be nice to bring along your husband's data page to the kids' interview if your husband has a valid US visa.

I am presently divorced with my hubby though he had a visa and we travelled together the last time with me been the primary applicant and him bn a dependent. I hope this will not affect my children's chances as we have lost contact since the separation.
I have a very good job and head the Women affairs and poverty alleviation department in one of the local govt in Lagos state. I wish to take my children on vacation to make them happy and see their cousins.
Pls fellow nairalanders, I need ur comments and advice.
Thanks for bn one of the best forum I ever joined.

Thanks. I am yet to fill their forms but I was told that I will have to fill their forms separately.
Pls house, do I need to link their form to mine as dependents.
Desperately waiting for a response.
Is it compulsory I go with their dads data page?
Thanks guys

Thanks. I am their mom and I am new on this trend. Just seeking for experiences and possible questions. Thanks for the assistance. Will go with my passports and feed the house back but don't mind more comments, advice's and experiences.
God bless u all

Hello all, I have a multiple entry visa to the USA and have visited once, planning to visit again but this time with my children. Anyone with interview experience with kids, possible questions.
