Pls, how easy is it for a person with a B1B2 visa currently running to get it changed to F1 for a masters programs ?

Can I tell the vo that I will sponsor my programme while in the USA ? Truly I can sponsor myself
I have about 6m on my account currently and I generate about 500 to 700k from my hospital which my wife will have access to every month and that I can also have access to.
Must I tell the vo someone will be my sponsor to aid my chances of getting the visa ? But in all honesty, I am sure I can finance myself from the bulk money I have now and the back up cash I will be getting from my Hosp
Pls advice

Hi doc, it's better to go get the F1 visa. Probability of changing to B1 is slim.you have a good travel history and home ties. Go get the F1
Thanks I meant will I find it easy to get f1 visa here in Nigeria from the current b1b2.? I can only proceed with the programme if I have the f1 from here in Nigeria. I will never risk going to america to change status. I will never try that. I can only proceed if I am guaranteed the f1 from Lagos here
My question is will it be easy for me to get the f1 ?

I am desiring to run an mph in a university in the US. I have a valid b1b2 visa since last year, visited the US just once last year and spend just 5 days there. I am married and I am a medical doctor, I have my own private hospital where I make an average of 500k monthly after paying all salaries and bills and other expenses. My intention is to run an mph in america. I plan to employ a doctor that will help me to run my hospital here in nigeria during the period when i am away to run my masters in the USA while my wife will be the administrator of my hospital. I am married with 2 kids and my wife also have a visiting visa running.the building/structure of the hospital is mine and also my house where I live is mine. I am 9 years practising as a medical doctor
What's my chances of getting my b1b2 visa changed to f1 pls
My visiting visa is still running but I don't really like visiting america as I have only visited once last year
Pls advice

I tried booking directly with the airline but I discovered it was far more expensive. I called their office and even checked online, it was really far expensive

Yes, Visa stamps also in my passport. I know that leaving your kids back home made a big part in getting the visa. That's why in my first reply I told you I have no kid yet.

I hope I get the visa too. I'm really excited for this two weeks vacation. -Finger Crossed-

Thank you again.
The vo also asked if my wife was pregnant and she said no
Your kids will soon come, no worries about that
And also, the vo will want to be anxious if u re pregnant as she might think u want to go and have a baby there
With your story, I am more than certain u will get the visa, no kwams my sister
Jus make sure to send my maltina when u are asked to pick up your visa
Is your interview in lag or abj ?

Thailand and Malaysia for our honeymoon. I guess VO officers don't care such countries sad
And yes we are legally married .. Haha

And I hope those countries visas are inside your passport.
One thing that I know really contributed to my wife's getting the visa is the fact that we are not travelling with our 2 kids, ages 3 and 5
That vo was amazed that my wife said the kids will stay with grandma.
From my own view, u should get the visa, u have a travel history and your husband had visited the US
And since its your hubby sponsoring the trip, I don't see any issue at all

Thanks a lot for prompt response with interview transcript

I have traveled few countries with my husband but we have no children yet. Also I just graduated and yet to start working. My plan is to join somewhere after this US vacation with my husband.
So, you think I have good chance of getting visa? or not? sad !! - [I'm just too anxious cause I will be heartbroken if VO misjudged me since we will be back after 2 weeks vacation.]

Also, you said your wife took your passport with her. So, Embassy allow to take spouse passport? or just photocopy?

Thank you again.
Yes o, go with the original of your husbands international passport, not photocopy at all
Go with your marriage certificate, hope u re legally married
But my concern is that the vo will likely never ask to check any document, he might ask to just see from afar
Make sure you package yourself well, which countries have u been to before ?

Hello there tayoamos,

My husband also has B1/B2 Visa and already visited USA before. I'm applying this week.
Would you please let me know the interview experience of your wife? like what are the questions she was asked and what she answered? It would help me and other a great deal.

Thank you a lot
Here is the transcript: interview was in Lagos, 10am

Vo: good morning and how r u
Wife: fine, and u
Vo: why re u going to america
Wife: to accompany my husband in attending a family friends wedding, we r both invited
Vo: the vo looked confused, asked everything about the family friends who's wedding we re going for, she asked of when did they get to america, when last did she see them, when did they become citizens, how did they become citizens, etc
My wife answered everything correctly
Vo: how long do u intend to stay and who is sponsoring your trip
Wife: 5 days, and my husband will sponsor the trip
Vo; how many kids do u have and what job does your husband do and how long has your husband been working and also tell me your job too
Wife: I have 2 kids, husband is a medical doctor, working for the last 8 years, I am a structural engineer at XYZ
Vo: how come your kids are not going with u
Wife; its a short trip, my kids will stay with my mom and sister both who stays with us
Vo: can I see your identity card and your husband statement of account and also his passport
Wife: I showed my identity card, when she wanted to bring out the statement of account and my passport, the vo said my wife should just wave them to him , he didn't even check them. Just saw them from afar through the glass
Vo: have u travelled with your husband before
Wife: yea, we both travelled to lots of States within Nigeria
Vo: she just smiled, vo said I mean travelling outside Nigeria with your husband
Wife: no, we have not
Vo: OK, I will approve your visa, and make sure u bring something for your kids from america. Pick up your visa on Monday.
Her passport was virgin, she assumed she will not be given the visa, so she looked very simple and had no tension on her.she just looked ordinary and natural
Be composed
Go with your husband's passport, his statement of account from bank. The vo also asked of her hotel reservation paper, she asked about the wedding invitation card
Let your husband be your sponsor
Come back here and give me the success of your visa approval

Hello my great professors in the house, I have another challenge. Here is my story:
I have a valid USA visa, visited Usa last year august just once where I spent just 6 days.
My wife applied for her visa few days ago and it was approved, she told the vo me and her will be going for a wedding next month and our 2 kids will not be going with us, we didn't even make the kids apply because they will not be going with us
My wife specifically filled in the ds-160 that its me and her that will be travelling together, and during the interview, the vo asked if the two of us will be going together she responded yes
But from the look of things now, fare tickets are expensive, I have decided not to go, while my wife should go alone. She will spend just 5 days too and return back.
My question now is that, at the poe, will the immigration guys not give my wife problem asking that we are supposed to come together and why is she coming alone ? Will they not say my wife lied during her interview to the vo ?
Thanks

You can use an uber. The fare estimate is 87-117 using uber. Use the uber app to get a ride and track the driver. However it is a cashless service,so you have to link your debit/credit card
Is the 87-117 USD range for each person, or for the two of us ?

1. Correct
2. I don't know
3. Your mind seems made up as you have already said its legal so no opinion.
Fyi sha this is the thread for visit visa
1. Correct
2. It will not be cancelled
3. Change of status in the US might take a longer time, and eventually it might not be approved

Its xplainable. However check how much a cab will cost (on meter) for a one hour journey... Ok just used fare finder. Its approx. 115 dollars. Good deal. Minus the stress
Once we get to Cincinnati airport, will it be easy to get a cab to Dayton, Ohio. ( both Dayton and Cincinnati are in the same state, ju about 1 hour drive to Dayton) but my question is that will it be easy to get a cab to Dayton ?
Travel / Re: Usa Visit Visa by tayoamos: 10:13pm On May 21, 2015
I and my wife are due to travel to Dayton, Ohio soon, but I have notices the cost of flight to our destination which puts the cheapest flight for 385k each to Dayton, Ohio. I have just saw another fare to Cincinnati, Ohio which is 280k, and Cincinnati to Dayton is just about 1 hour drive by road. Will it not pose any problem for us at the poe if we are asked that why coming to Cincinnati instead of dayton, because we told the vo that we re going to Dayton. Pls are we safe to go to Cincinnati and then take a cab to Dayton due to the flight fare differences? Is this explainable ?

i arrived at chicago airport, and went straight to immigration clearnce with the form i filled. vo guy that attended to me just asked a question about what i was coming for, i told hime business, he stamped in my passport and gave me 6 months to stay in. he then wrote something on the form of declaration that i filled. i went to pick up my bag and followed everyother person that was walking towards the door to leave the airport. as i go there, comeone asked for my declaration form, i showed him , then directed me somewhere else. that was the beginning of my ordeal.
it was a queue, i could use my phone or go to the toilet at that point. then they called me to move towards the counter, swiped my passport and questioning started. they then collected all my bags and then emptied it on a table. the guy come wear gloves start to dey scatter things one by one. in my mind, i was like, person don put dagbo inside my load? who i offend? wetin happen. after the guy had finished with my load, he asked for my return ticket, i gave him, he then went to confirm it. afterwards, he told me to go and sit in one cubicle like that. at that point, fear don hook me. wetin happen? abi that my village luxirious people follow me reach here again? then they gave me cookies, tea and started gisting with me.. i was there for like 3 hrs. i couldn't touch my phone, i couldn't get up, i could.t go to the toilet.. i was just there. then after like 3 hrs, someone came and called me to go into another office. they asked for my passport and swiped it again. the guy didn't cover his system well so i saw the screen. brethren, you wont believe what i saw. i saw different pictures of me from facebook, pictures of my daughter, pictures of my wife, my grad pictures, and under each one, there were comment about it. the text were too tiny so i couldn't see it. at that point, the only thing that came to my mind was.. what the actual Bleep? where did this people find my life history from?? how did they get my graduation picture? oh yes, i saw my twitter handle too.. i saw a screen shot of my email addresses. not open, but it was there. i was just there moping. the guy recovered quickly to block the system so i couldn't see anything again me wey be naija boy.. i form sneezing immediately! the guy then asked if i wanted more coffee, i told him i was fine. he then swiped my passport again, collected the declaration form, then told me to go and welcome to hte united states of america. to cut the story short, this people already almost know before you go for your interview if they are going to give you visa or not. they ahve done their homework on you! the only thing you need to do if they found enough to be satisfied to give you visa is just to confirm what you wrote in your forms. i wasn't surprised when they didn't question me about too much when i took my wife because they already know i am married to her. i don't know what you guys can pick from my experience o, but that's it. good luck to everyone

I think you should have at least 3 million in your account because you have to prove to the v.o that you are not spending all your life savings to go to the u.s it is very logical that you need to have money to fall back on after buying the tickets and shopping, I hope I have been able to shed more light?
You are absolutely correct and I agree with u fully

Good day Everyone,

please I need help on this I want to apply for USA visa for vacation with my family(my 3kids ,6years,4years and 4months baby with hubby) this is our first time of leaving Nigeria, I spoke to my cousin(We bear the same surname but we are both married) in the state married for like 4 years ago, she's a nurse and she has gotten an award from the hospital she work for the best staff of the month and she agreed to send us invitation letter but don't know what to do ,i told her to send the invitation that she will sponsor us as per accommodation and feeding for the 2weeks where planning to stay while we pay for our tickets and shopping plus contingency.

I work and my hubby do to but my salary is way higher than his, although my company will give me an introduction letter to go to embassy with, am going to attach my payslip, cooperative statement that has 800k as balance, marriage cert, my salary statement and that of my hubby. we are saving 700k for trip since we have accommodation and feeding already, do you think it will be enough.

my Question goes like this.

1.what document should I tell her to send to us

2. should she add her statement of account and the hubby

what else should she add to this our document.

N/B: please I know some of the questions has been answered before please don't refer me to them I have a baby that am nursing so I cant read from the beginning to this page .

all I need is a guideline .

God bless you all.
My observation: 700k will not even be enough for a flight ticket for u and your husband alone, not to talk of your 3 kids. Book like 1.6 to 1.8 million naira for tickets for all of u. Your total number is 5 I guess.

2 Under work /eduaction/ information is she going to fill her work information or her husband?
. she is a bussiness woman is she going to write monthly salary or no.
Please i need your advice.
Thanks]
No need to fill in the salary income of the husband who is her sponsor or his occupation. Just fill her own income and where they asked who will sponsor, put others
The vo will ask for details of her husbands job and his income at the interview
However, make sure your sister goes with the printed statement of her husbands bank account statement

Helo peeps.

I have never been out of the country before, in 2012, i applied for a Uk visa to go on vacation but was denied, I have a son, and my fiance work and study in the US, he is a green card holder, I need advise on the following options for my USA visa application.

1st Option: My employer wants to send me on all paid expense vacation trip. I work in a financial institution as an accountant and i earn N186,000 monthly net of tax.

2nd Option: My Uncle who is a citizen wants to send me an invitation.

3rd Option: My fiance wants to send me an invitation but we only have conversation on phones and BBM, whats app,2years going. No other evidence of relationship.

I want to go alone and leave my son with my mum, he is a year and half old. I intend to go with him on my next vacation.

Which option do i go with? and what are my chances of non-refusal with the option considering leaving my son behind.

Sure you will need to fill separate DS-160 form for them. Accompanying them to the interview with your passport and explain to VO that you and your wife already have valid visa. However, this can only be possible on your next trip to the U.S.
Thank u very much.
Description to DHL, isolo. Oshodi to mile 2, drop at Toyota. I hope I am correct with this description. I want to go and pick up a passport at dhl office, isolo

Take a taxi/bus to Oshodi. From Oshodi join another bus going to mile 2 and stop close to Ladipo spare part bus stop. Ask for directions to DHL house. It's just a stone throw from that point.
