Why do you say that sir.

tegipraise:
Thank you Nairaland Family for inspiring me greatly with your knowledge and experiences. I am a silent reader and I studied this thread like a bible with a jotter and pen from Part 13. I enjoyed both the life transforming knowledge and all the quarrels and arguments

Visa Approved on the 24th Oct and Passport collected 28th Oct 2019

Graduated with a degree in Microbiology, 2015
Refused study visa 3 times in Canada and the last refusal was March 2019.
This was my first application to the US, University of New Haven. Masters in chemistry for winter 2020
No Gre
No TOEFL
No IELTS
Sponsor: Uncle with different surname
Interview time: 6:45am. Lagos,

I got to the embassy around 5:25am, I saw lot of people already, some even dressed like they just woke up from sleep and some looked like they were just going to greet the VO who is their relative hahahahaha, NOTE: please you must dress well and look smart, imagine you are going for an interview in a bank, how will you dress? not necessarily suit which looks too formal and common. I wore a well starched collarless coffee brown long-sleeves tucked in my light brown chinos trouser with a suede brown shoe. Please don't cut your hair a day to interview, do it like 3 days to, the looks is different. I even did facial massage, use cucumber to remove eye bags and i will drinking lots of water to have white eyes and hydrated skin. I prepared all round sha. I went in well equiped.

After I did all the bio metrics stuff, I finally entered the interview hall, I was consciously looking for the black american ladies people talked about here but I didnt see them. All VOs were white male. I was interviewed by a young VO in window 1, the window by the entrance door and he approved 4 persons before me but questioned them alot.

VO: Good morning
Me: Hi Good morning, good to see you (cheerfully)
VO; Good to see you too ( with a surprise look)
VO; passport and i20
Me: sure (gave him). He typed for few mins
VO: Where are you going to
me: I am going for a research masters degree in chemistry with conc. in drug discovery chemistry at the UNH, Connecticut.
VO: why this schoool
Me: A lot of reasons made me choose UNH but for the purpose of this interview I’ll enumerate just 4;
Firstly, I am very keen and interested in research; and I have a passion for cancer treatment, the chemistry department is currently conducting a research in collaboration with Yale University Scientist and cancer center. This research is focused on laboratory synthesis of natural product and their analogues, polyoxygenated and heterocyclic compounds for the design of drug molecules like antibacterial and anticancer chemotherapeutic agent. The motivation is to discover and develop new approaches, new vaccines and new drug delivery systems and integrating them with experiment into chemical materials like green catalyst and cancer drug to improve survival rate of adult diagnosed with leukemia. (cut in)

VO: How many university did you apply to
ME: Western Illinois University, Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, Tennessee Technological University, Cookeville, Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada.

VO: who is you sponsor
ME: my uncle
VO: what does he do
ME: He is a renowned financial economist and the chief financial officer and partner of the bleep and treasurer of the bleep bleep.
VO: do you have your reciprocacy fee here?
VO: yes i do
the rest was history

I noticed the VO kept reading my D120 form in his system, NOTE: what you fill in your D120 form is very important and it determines your approval or refusal already, the interview seems to, just come and confirm perhaps with evidence what is on your D120 form. Please fill your form online yourself like i did and screen shot or write important information like dates and figures on a paper so you wont forget after you had submitted your form.

Mehn I fasted and prayed oh, even took 14 days to my interview off work. Miracles are real, if not for anything it boosted my confidence and i was alert. I knew who ever will interview me will approve me.
Dont talk too fast or too slow, demonstrate with your hands and use a passionate expression on your face like I did for study of cancer, because its killing our people everyday

Prepare your transcript and act it like home video. I felt like an actor rehearsing for a shot.

God is the ultimate joor, nobody can tell me otherwise. Its my experience.

REMEMBER: Pray it into existence and work it into existence. God bless you all.

Beautiful!
I tap into your blessings!

Why not try another country? Singapore and Malta visa is easier to get, think about it and if you insist on U.S goodluck.

you know Nigerian parents.

seyewest:
Since you're so desperate to go to U.S, why not pay an agent to do it for you, we do not work for U.S Embassy here and as far as I can see no one will assist you here because you do not have strong ties.

As for the strong ties sir/ma, my whole family resides her in Nigeria, only one person resides in the US, and she's not even an immediate relative

.

I still need the help of any guru in the house!
Before the embassy runs out of dates.

.

@spanishmilf
But to better my chances and as additional proof of home ties, the person said I should add my academic documents.

Can you help?
Or does anyone know anyway I could do this?

Spanishmilf:
are you trying to immigrate or you just wanna visit true true.. I'm confused

I just want to visit.

.

Spanishmilf:
about 500,000 Nigerians are I living in d USA as at 2015... And about 70% are undocumented
As at 2018. Statistics show that about 29thousand Nigerians misused their visa and undocumented.. That why d embassy d denying rate is high asf

But still, some people still get visas!
A family of 5 applied, and all of them were given.
I'm sure today, some visas were issued to.
Is there any magic?

..

[quote author=Spanishmilf post=83850833][/quote]Wow.
Why is the denial rate so high?
I know about trying to control the influx of people entering into the country, but this one loud o.

People wey dem dey give no get two head na

Abi is there anything special

Rolly22:
I think in some cases, these people are unpredictable.

Somebody shuu want to escape from all the sun and stress here, and fear for the craze of these VOs will be holding u

.

Rolly22:
I sensed that too because he repeated it two times.

So lack of travel history affects visas?

Rolly22:
I was Denied today, the rate of Denials was so much .

So sorry about that.
What was the reason for your denial?

.
