I understand jare... Money has a tendency to "flow" and not remain stagnant...lol.

I think it depends on how soon you want to reapply...and when you are due. You do need to show that the funds are readily available to you when you are travelling so if your due date is still far, I think you can re-fix the funds if you still have up to six months or maybe change some to dollars and put in a dormaccount if you have one.

All the best.

i am filling the application now and i will be due early August but intend to travel in july. next available date for interview is 14th may.

Fyorgyn:


So sorry about your denial.

This really should have been in the birthing thread as many have had the same experience. I also gave birth in the US in 2016 and was called for "post-Dropbox" interview in Abuja. The visa was approved after a gruelling questioning session and I think my saving grace was that I wasn't pregnant and I was going for a conference.

Someone in the birthing thread, was invited for post Dropbox interview and was refused twice in Abuja but got approved in Lagos the third time so you can try again.

My advise is that you should apply again and take advantage of the space where you are asked "why you were denied" to clearly explain the funds in your account and state that you paid your previous bills in full.


I wish you all the best

oh thank you. i read about your interview and that all of the person you are talking about but came here because i felt you guys might be in silent mood.
i will do as you said ma. please another question should i re-fix the funds or allow it in my account as i am always tempted to touch the money which was my we did the money market in the first place?

YankeeJJC:
u met a VO that dislike documents to prove. people have done "Sudden inflows" for them for the sake of the Visa, they see that as a trick. Maybe your opening balance is not even up to quarter of closing. U might need 3month running more to get a balanced statement. (btwn) Ino read account!

thanks for the response. yeah i thought as much. planning on reapplying in lagos as abuja isnt smiling. or what do you think?

LadyGuinivere:

Sorry Ma about the refusal. But this na birthing thread question

yes ma. i feel you can still help me out with few pointers please.

Hello LadyG, Hello to the gurus in the house.

vo: did you pay your bills and can i have your receipts
me: yes i did and i hand over my zero balances
vo: where do you resides
me: i reside here in abuja
vo: why does the bc has a us address as residence instead of contacts.
me: they requested that all contacts for documentation has to be us address, moreso thats the address i submitted when applying for the previous visa.
vo: residence address is different from contact address and what you filled states that you are a residence of texas.
me: oh i dint know that.
vo: are you going for same purpose and how much will it cost you?
me: yes i am going for same purpose and it will cost me bleep bleep dollars
vo: can i have your statements?
me: yes please hands over the statements
vo: why do you have 865 as opening balance and the all this funds as closing balance
me: thats a 6month salary statement and i move funds for investments but since we became pregnant in december we have been saving and thats the accumulated funds. i have proof of purchase of money markets and all.
vo: types and said sorry you do not qualify for a visa this time. interview is over.

NB: i liquidated these funds a week before the interview but went with the certificate of purchase which he dint bother to look at.
