Obamagbagbeeni:
Good day all,
Please people that were called for a follow up interview after IW, when you tracked did your visa status read refused or come for follow-up interview?

My visa status reads refused. I have renewed so many times without issues so I’m wondering why this was refused. All events have stayed the same with me except that I didn’t use my last visa at all.. I got it 2019 and planned going 2020 but Covid happened …
Can I be refused for not using the visa?

Thank you for your anticipated response.

Yes you can be refused for not using your visa. I do suspect they just want to ask why you didn’t use the visa the previous time and you should be good to go.

987Real:
I am facing the same issue. My visa was revoked too.

I did all I could to find the reason why the visa was revoked but nothing was ever revealed to me.

I did it all. I wrote the U.S consulate in Lagos but no meaningful information was given.

I proceeded to request for my record from the United States Department of State headquarters in Washington D.C and all they sent me was my DS160 information without any meaningful information.

It was at this moment I knew the U.S system is corrupt and their aim was to confuse visa applicants to waste time and to keep wasting more money reapplying for a visa they have no intention of issuing.

The system isn’t corrupt. All they are required by law is to tell you under what section of law your visa was denied. Here is a Supreme Court ruling on the doctrine of consular officer non-reviewability Kerry v. Din, 135 S.Ct. 2128 (2015). In other words, the decisions of a US consular officer is confidential and you have no right to review it.

Sheezybobby:
I have a question to ask.

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

Don’t do it.

Ain't no village people anywhere jare.
Hold the embassy by the balls to explain to you. That's the barest minimum they owe you.

By law, the VO officer does not owe you any explanation. Not even the US president can override a VOs decision.

Bro I greet you. But if you could please help him, help him. I go with the idea that he wasn't seen as a serious student. I'll be happy if you could help him with suggestions on how he could go from an unserious candor to a very serious one.
Blessings.

You can't help someone be a serious student, it has to come from within.

CharlesTunde:
Good morning everyone it’s my first time joining this forum , my name is Charles and I’m 18, please I’ve been denied twice of my f1 visa first in Lagos on the first of December 2021 the reason then was that I didn’t have complete documents even though the woman didn’t even give me enough chance to speak and then second was in Abuja January 10th 2022 with my mom who had her own visa to travel but was still denied saying I didn’t state my ties and the question wasn’t asked and The name of the school I’m being admitted into is Harford Community College in Maryland . Please if anyone can be of assistance to help me go through this third one cause I deferred to Fall classes by August please if you can be of assistance contact me via email charlep53@gmail.com I would really appreciate �������I really don’t know how this forum works that’s why I asked to be contacted via email �� Please help a young Nigerian

They don't view you as a serious student.

Quonchovsymenez:
Please my brother is in US and he's a student (nonimmigrant) on the ds160 I'm asked if I have a sibling in the US. He's in a state different from where I got admitted.

What should I fill please?

The truth. you have a sibling in the US.

TheCvBank:
Good morning guys.

I have a GA as residence hall coordinator and my start date is July 5th. However my program starts ending August/Beginning September. Since the start date will likely bear the program start date, I am wondering if the consulate will review my GA offer letter and schedule an earlier date for my interview. I'm really open to suggestions of what is likely going to happen and what I need to do from my own end.

You have an F1 visa, so your resumption date is what is most important.

May your helper depart from you and not locate yoh ijn

Lol he’s openly scamming someone and you’re talking about “helper” and adding Jesus to it?

MrBrownJay1:
he did NOTHING for black people, NOT A SINGLE POLICY/LAW/DECREE directly benefitting black agenda, but for gays and transgenders etc, he did a lot. he is a sellout to his own people!

BTW this pic is from 2016 when he was still president: here is the link to original: https://twitter.com/barackobama/status/714145739111174144?lang=en

This is not true. The ACA benefited millions of black people. Black unemployment was 14.8% in 2009, when he left in 2016, it was 7.5% (almost half). African Americans comprise <15% of the US population, any decree/policy solely directed to black people would have been struck down in the courts. If you're in doubt, see here - https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/21/us/politics/black-farmers-debt-relief.html

I think we need to be very careful when we make these types of knee-jerk claims.

Michelle70:
what evil? cos he legalized gay marriage?

Some of u over sabi Christians has normalized fornication and adultery, we steal and call it yahoo, we kill and call it plus-up.

In case u dont know, being jobless is a sin in christianity too, so if we wan criticize, most of us are still evil

He did not "legalize gay marriage". The Executive branch does not have that power... the courts do. The Supreme Court legalized gay marriage. I put the reference in my previous post, if you'd like to check it out.

desas:
op chill we are Living in funny time. Anybody can go to church.

How can a normal person campaign for woman to woman marriage against the Original will and plan of God

This is hypocrisy. The original will of God did not include divorce either... so many of you "hate" Obama for simply following the constitution as laid down by the courts. Gay marriage was not instituted by Obama, it was legalized by the US Supreme Court (Obergefell v. Hodges, 576 U.S. 644).

God1000:
I don't know why some Africans hate him so much, he did well in office apart from the US led NATO military operation in Libya that killed Gaddafi under him.

The republican led Congress both at the senate and House of representatives blocked everything Obama wanted to do

It's real simple, many Nigerian "Christians" are so beholden to American "evangelicals" that they simply hate who they hate and love who they love. The American "evangelicals" religiously vote GOP and many still retain vestiges of a racist south. The election of Obama was a blow to them. Nigerian "Christians" simply parroted them without any thought about the underlying legacy of racism that was the hallmark of American evangelicals well up to 1978.

Good day everyone!

I need help with US Visa Interview Waiver program.

My wife submitted her passport for the Interview Waiver visa renewal at the Lagos embassy on 1st April 2022 but was returned without a visa, but was asked to come back in person to the embassy within one year period. Please see attached paper slip placed inside the returned passport which stated thus: "Come with your international passport. Ensure accurate bio-data and validity"

My question is does anyone have an idea why she's asked to return to the embassy for interview?

Some additional Info:
1. The appointment date was a week past the 24-month validity period due to the delay in getting a date
2. Never overstayed previous 2 visits, though had a baby during last visit 2 years ago

I need link to join the Lagos Telegram group. Thank you.

You were late and your wife does not qualify for IW.

Usman Abdallah?

flourishing247:
You are actually wrong.

No. He is correct. If he got married legitimately, his wife can file for his green card and he will get a 2-year conditional green card. The only instance where you cannot change status is if you did not enter the US through a port of entry (e.g. illegal border entry). Since he came in with a valid visa, he’ll be just fine.

puffmama:
She isn't , but some people have been fortunate to get their passport submitted and some were not allowed, when it was just a day late, I guess that's where favour comes in .

If you don't get a closer date you can take the risk ..cos the conditions are clearly spelt out ..within 24 months after your visa expired or 3 months before expiration date .

God is not the author of confusion... deadlines are set for a reason. Submit your passport within the 2-year period stated and save yourself the need to require "grace" to do what everyone else takes for granted.

chioma134:
This post was triggered by an earlier post I saw where the poster was having long talks with his friend's wife. I've been in a similar situation. I changed location and had to be separate from my family due to work. I was lonely and needed a friend. I talk with my husband regularly, but his interests are not my interests, so I find that besides household and family matters, we have little else to talk about. I found myself talking to this guy I met when I went for an official assignment. We started as friends, but we became attracted to each other. So when I travelled back to base, we started these long conversations. We're both born-again Christians and both married, so we kept to certain boundaries. I enjoyed conversing with him more than with my spouse. I became consumed with thoughts of him. He also expressed his desire and attraction towards me, but we laughed over it as jokes.

My husband noticed the conversations when I travelled home and became suspicious. He forbade me from speaking with him. He had never seen me have long talks with any friend, talkless of a male one. I informed my friend and he said no problem, he would wait till I travelled back to work base before he would continue. He later travelled to meet his family and conversation became scanty. I realized how much I was addicted to him when I couldn't talk to him as much as I wanted. He returned to base and we continued like before.

I started praying for God to help me overcome these desires. Maybe he also felt the same, because for some reasons I don't know, he reduced the frequency of calls and chats drastically. I didn't try to find out why, just thought the time-off would help me clear out immoral thoughts. But I got hurt when he acted indifferent on one occasion when I felt he should have shown more care. I asked him about it and he pretended not to understand what I was talking about. I read the writing on the wall, and decided to play along. So I said "bye. It was nice meeting you." Part of me was grateful it ended, another part was wishing I could still be with him. I love my husband and children, I cannot come and scatter my home.

He thought I was joking. I was no longer responding to his chats, and when I did, only with monosyllables. He became hurt and accused me of going silent on him. I told him he started it. He wanted me to become defensive, but the Holy Spirit whispered "keep quiet ". So I allowed him rant without saying anything. I thank God I didn't, because I would have exposed how deep my true feelings for him were.

Right now, he chats once in a while, just general "how are you". I say "fine". My feelings have healed and I thank God we didn't continue because I wouldn't have been able to stop myself from an affair if we had eventually had any physical contact. I can categorically say I'm no longer in love with him.

I penned these down for those struggling with similar situations. Just cut off the relationship. Stop conversation, chatting, or physical contact. Then pray for God to help you overcome those lusty feelings.

Follow the golden rule, respect your marriage and do unto your spouse that which you want him/her to do to you.

You goofed… and you played on your husband’s trust in you. What if he demanded to see your phone or pulled phone records? He would be hurt beyond measure.

What you don’t want your spouse to see, don’t do!
What you know you can’t explain coherently to your spouse, don’t do!
If you know there is something on your phone you don’t want your spouse to see, you are already in trouble.

deegalaxy:
In 2016 I applied for a US tourist visa (B1) to go for Church Conference but I was denied, but the visa officer didn't stamp anything on my Passport, she just only wrote on a slip, that I should reapply in 3months.
My question is why didn't she stamp on the passport, I thought every rejection will be indicated on the passport. Also hope this will not affect me since I am about to reapply.

Also at the 2016, an error was made on my Passport Birth Year, I used it to go the embassy that way because of the urgency. But now I want to reapply I am thinking if I should continue with it or rectified the birth year. But if I am to change it to the real one, won't they already have the previous one that I used in 2016 in their system, will that not be an issue. Also that time I haven't done my birth certificate,(the one from National Population Commission), So should I just do the birth certificate to tally with age already in their system and proceed with the previous passport. Or do the birth certificate with my real birthday year, than change it on the passport also. Then when I get to the embassy if the birth issue comes up , I can show them the birth certificate as prove that the previous one was an error and has been rectified in the new passport.

Finally, please if one is travelling as a clerygy for a Church Leadership conference, is it the B1 visa or R- Visa that one should apply for?

Please I really would appreciate answers to this questions. Thank you so much.

How are you able to apply for a passport without your birth certificate?

They are out of sanctions, unfortunately for them the initial sanctions imposed on the Kremlin are no longer effective, the EU and USA are even filling the heat more than Kremlin.

Hypocrite Spotted! When a Palestinian attacks an Israeli Soldier he is labeled a "terrorist " but when an Ukrainian attacks a Russian he is a "freedom fighter"

Palestinians are terrorists... that is why they are walled off from Egypt and not permitted to enter Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, etc. It's not just the Jews that don't want them... their Muslim brothers don't either.

Eastlink:
The title is shameful. Imagine calling the Palestinians defenders "Jihad terrorist". While the true terrorist Isreali terrorist "soldiers". One sided reportage.

The Isreali soldiers pushed the Palestinians to the wall and dudes had to hit back. Whether by shooting or anything you call it, the signs have been snow balling since last month.

As was done in Northern Ireland, the Palestinians and Isreali can only have peace if both sit in a round table and form a single country. The capital can be in Jerusalem but the representative in parliament must reflect diversity. Palestine must drop their Islamic state mentality and stop allowing aggresive Arab countries around push them into their decades of stupidity. While Isreal drop the Jewish state mindset and form one country with forgiveness of the past and a better future.

Islam does not own Jerusalem and Jews don't own it either, humanity owns Jerusalem. Nothing like holy land, a place reknowned for millenia of bloodshed is not a holy place only peace can make it holy.

The one-sided reporting is from you... the Palestinians attacked (as Muslims all over the world do) and the Israelis fired back in kind... too bad.

No, the Israelis are not going to form one country with people whose raison d'etre is to kill the Jews and destroy their nation. The Palestinians have enough land to form their own country, just like the jews have with the tiny sliver of land they have... they choose not to, partly because they want to destroy the jews (which s the whole point of the fraudulent 1-state solution) and have no ability to establish a functional nation.

Russia will loose customers
Customers like China and India will take advantages of cheap oil from Russia and may even sell to other country. Third party trading.
Iran will start to make more oil money. More weapons for Iran. Israel should wake up, bombs are coming from Iran.
Other oil producing countries will also increase oil production. Nigeria should wake up.
European customers might have to endure for a while. European leaders will look for alternatives as soon as possible.

Israel has had the iron dome system for years... they are fully awake.

I knowno Africans love to "overdo" but the way racism is eating over the world, i fear for the future of our children.

Make everybody farm for him farm.

This isn’t racism. You need a visa to enter Poland or Estonia. War in Ukraine does not remove that burden. This students had every opportunity to leave Ukraine and return to their country as early as January.

Candence Owen is blue I guess?!

You do know Candace Owens used the NAACP to sue for racial discrimination in her high school and won right? She was able to sue based on rights won under the 1965 civil rights bill. But you go on making comments based on a tweet you read.

Appleyard:
First Amendment. Lmao. Stop messaging your oversize ego. Go and read about big tech censorship in America. It makes China looks like child's play.

I don't need to "read" about it, I live here and have friends who work in big tech. There is no censorship. The level of idiocy... I'm not going to bother reading from Nigerians, living in Nigeria, who want to lecture Americans on how their country works... speaking of egos. You got another terrorist attack to deal with?

Whining about big tech censorship when you can't even guarantee your own life from day to day in your country. What a bunch of dunces.

By Chiamaka Okafor
“He was not running away,” Mr Ikwueto said. “Why will he run away when his family is here and he has a lot to do here? The fact is that he (Obiano) has a medical condition for which he had a prior appointment to see his Specialist Doctor for treatment at Spring Creek Urology Specialists LLC, Houston, Texas, U.S.A.

“By the nature of his ailment, he has been undergoing treatment at the said Specialist Hospital since June 2021 and had an appointment earlier scheduled for the final stage of Specialist Radiography for eight (cool weeks – which will take place immediately upon his arrival at the Facility in Houston, Texas, U.S.A; and thereafter, after four days. Subsequent treatments are scheduled every day for a period of eight (cool weeks.”

The governor is most likely lying. The clinic mentioned is 20 minutes from my home, one of the doctors there is my wife's urologist and performed her kidney stone operation a few weeks ago. They do not perform "radiography".

1. Radiography is one of several imaging techniques used to diagnose disease (e.g. CT, X-ray, MRI). It is not a treatment in and of itself. It would be strange and impossible to get imaging every day for 8 weeks!

2. I've been to Spring Creek Urology at least twice, they do not have facilities inside the clinic to do imaging. You have to go to the main hospital (Memorial Hermann) for that. My wife had to do her CT in the main hospital, not at the clinic.

3. Perhaps the governor was referring to radiation therapy? That is the only thing that would make sense. That said, Spring Creek does not do radiation either. You would have to be referred to a specialist radiologist for that.

They don't need to say it. Ukraine was also trying to get their hands on Nukes. What we have in Ukraine is a young NAZI country hell bent on destroying Russia with the active connivance of US and NATO.

If you don't know what New World Order globalist is, you shouldn't be arguing on the internet.

If you have no idea what you are talking about, you should not be talking on the internet. Ukraine was not trying to get their hands on nukes, you have no evidence for such arrogantly stated tripe. You should know that Ukraine was a nuclear-armed nation at its independence in 1991 (at the time, it was the world's 3rd largest nuclear power, behind only the US and Russia). It voluntarily gave up its nukes in exchange for a peace agreement with Russia and the US in 1994.

Dunces like you just like to pretend you have a clue what you're talking about online.

Your lovely democrat America is trying to creat a plague.


That's after they make people believe that a Rock can indentify as a snake, while maintaining an image of a unicorn

Classic democrats making negros @ cray cray

The "classic democrats" who are the reason black people have equal rights in the US? Ah, you prefer the republicans who openly call you a negro and don't think people from s**thole countries like yours should be allowed into the US?

the level of idiocy on these boards...

Malawian:
You should know Ukraine is not really a pushover militarily. Ukraine has the second largest Army in Europe. They were like second in command after Russia during the USSR era.

Then there is the intelligence the US and NATO has been sharing to Ukraine forces. Honestly, American is really meddling in this war on the side of Ukraine. They give Ukrainian forces intelligence on Russian attacks and positions and how to counter them. Russia is actually fighting Ukraine and NATO althogether right now.

Destroying those labs with bombs could actually release those deadly pathogens, the very nightmare scenario Russia invaded Ukraine to prevent. Those pathogens need to be destroyed the right way (Fire). A broken vial of chicken pox during a bombing raid and we go hear am. I am also of the opinion Kiev will even release those stuff themselves if they are about to capitulate to Russian forces.

Pray for Russia. Those NWO globalist really wants to enslave the world into themselves, and only Putin and Russia can do anything or is doing anything about it.

Covid came from China, who knows what they were cooking in Ukraine? They could have released it in Russia and claim it originated from Russia. Recall Bill Gates telling us something more destructive was coming after Covid? Yes, it was being cooked up in Ukraine.

So you know what this fight really is all about.

But Russia never said it was going into Ukraine to destroy biolabs. That was cooked up by Tucker Carlson at Fox News and Russia eagerly lapped it up to fool you.

What is an NWO globalist?
