Car TalkRe: Which Is More Stressful To Clean The Interior Or The Exterior Of A Car? by ussv: 2:40pm On Dec 10, 2020
It depends. If the car dey pass through Adaloko mud road for Okokomaiko area, then the exterior would be very hard to clean. Those mud are top grade. If your car passes through it, it sticks like glue. All under the car, you can remove half tipper of sand from it a month later.

You cannot put AC in the house, you cannot hang tv to the wall. No nails of any kind. When I complained, the guy yelled at me to go and buy TV stand.

I see.. Did you make further enquiries to the visa categories the entrant used? Tourist visas are hard to come by nowadays especially without travel history
I know, but most of them came with disvirgined visa with most Dubai or South Africa visits. If you are going to do this, space it out. Do like two dubai visits within a one year period to correspond with the particular time of the year you would want to apply for US. For instance, if you and your wife travel to Dubai in June of 2020, and June of 2021, that is a trend, you guys would effortlessly get US visas if you apply for visa in June of 2022 if you simply say it is family vacation. I am not saying you must get it but if you put other foot right, your chances are far higher.

Well i follow trends too, i have seen a lot of new entrants into this country who said they did not even ask them to bring out any documents. It is a combination of luck and other factors i mentioned earlier.

Do they (US visa officers) really look at the bank account statement? At times they never ask for any paper.

I just wonder how they reach a decision at a whim. First impression? Dressing? Gut feeling? Pot belly? Beauty?

Do they have a set of requirement to guide their decision?
They do not really look at documents because they know we all come prepared. The first thing is your persona, next your charisma, and then your knowledge of the subject matter, like answering the question within the subject matter, and most importantly, your confidence. All these can take place within a minute, and if they are not sure, they start asking you to bring this out and bring that out. Nowadays it is important to take genuine documents there. Most Nigerians that i have met here that recently came from Nigeria, some of them said they asked them to hold on while they confirm things like bank accounts and employment letters

you are part of the reason Nigerians are barred from entering US..
U go on a tourist visa n stay bck.. Na una dey spoil show for those wey Wan go via work permit level
Well, if striving for a better life for my family is a sin, i will be a sinner over and over again. 90 percent of immigrant citizens initially came with a visiting visa. I am sure if you are in that position, you would do the same. If you come back to Nigeria after visiting the US without any meaningful means of survival in Nigeria, i am sure your family will lay curses on you. By the way, Trump temporarily banned work Visas from many countries and not Nigeria alone. There are millions of Job losses in America and Trump felt America should bounce back before letting others in, not that i agree with him though because some people deliberately stay home and collect jobless benefits. The average American collects about 3500 dollars jobless benefit a month from federal and state governments as well as food stamps and other support. I don't make up to that even though i go to work six times a week. So i don't think we are taking their jobs, afterall na aboki and security job most of us dey do when we first arrive, their people no dey gree do am.

We4all:
Pls, I would like an insight on how u pulled this off. I know so many people do this, but let me hear from you.

What was the duration of your visiting visa?

What did u do when it expired since you didn't leave before?

Were u able to work with the visiting visa?

I presume you have your residence visa now. So, how long did it take you to acquire it.

The visiting visa is usually two years but you are given around six months stay at the airport
I started work the 3rd day after i arrived . I got a security job which is everly available alongside care giver job even on your first day in America if someone has it pre planned for you. In the state i went, California, jobs is readily available to immigrants without paper under the table, its just not the same with pay with those that have paper. At a point, i had two jobs, one as a security guard and the other as a caregiver
I later applied for asylum with my family around 4 months into my stay, and to the glory of god, we were granted asylum , and that is how i got my green card the following year and citizenship 5 years later.
Asylum is not usually smooth for everybody, but regardless of whether you are given or not, deportation is rare unless you put hand for bad business or commit felonious crimes
Of Course you can rent apartment with visiting visa, in some places in houston texas and hawthorne california. Especially in hawthorne california, there are several apartment owners and managers that rent out apartment to immigrants, all you need to do is to prove to them that you work by showing them your paycheck. Infact, most apartment owners praise Nigerians because they say we don't owe rent like others. They see us as hustlers.

Can one rent an apartment on a visiting visa?

Any other useful tips will be appreciated.

Nice one sir
You care to share your travel experience with us?
It was about 10 years ago. I was working a good job, but i had good expenses to follow too. My children were attending private school and that was taking a lot off me. Not only that , i was also living in Ajah cos of work proximity , i was paying through my nose for rent and i got fed up. I had a registered company which i used to get conference, and i added that with the claim that i was also going to buy cars for my car business. I had a funded account of about 3m but i was not even asked about it because of the flow of the interview. The guy believed all i said when he asked me about what i do and what i was going to america to do. He believed me and i only spent 3 minutes with him and Gbaaaam. The truth is, it is very tough now i know, but applying as a family gives you better chance , also business or conference would suffice better than a visit to a family or friend. It depends on packaging but i don't really think you need to have millions of naira sitting in your account, they just need to see enough activity on the account, in and out . I have a friend that they checked his account, he had just 400,000 naira around the same period i travelled and they gave him. He sold recharge cards and his account had a lot of activity. They just confirmed his account and gave him

How about now that there's a visa ban?
I don't think there is complete visa ban for visiting category, it is for categories like work visas etc. Once embassy starts receiving application, try applying with the whole family. package yourself from the business angle , let them know you are going for business and also taking your family on a long awaited vacation. Try using a fairly funded account, though, your performance may not even warrant them asking you.

I`m not trying to justify FFK`S actions but every marriage has issues. Challenges will come and go. They share children together, it would be logical for them to come to an understanding and bury the hatchet. I`m never a fan of broken home or raising kids out of wedlock. The effects could be devastating.
