I am a federal Civill servant, I work with the federal institute of industrial research oshodi. I recently got a scholarship to come to the US for a 1 month training which will be coming up by January 2014 . I applied for a B1 visa. An invitation letter was sent to me through d email which I presented to d Consular officer. But suprisingly I was denied a visa under section 214 (B) I told her dat a leter of introduction was also given to me by my employer but she didn't
ask.Please what can be the reason for my visa denial? I was properly dressed and I was even puting on my ofice I'd card. I left the embassy shocked and disapointed. Thanks in anticipation of Your quick response as am thinking of reapplying next week.

blawi1: @ tzetzefly for a 1 mth training most people use a B1/B2 visa, the J visa program is for people intending to stay in the US for about a year @ the least and the process is too long for a 1 mth training (I think).

@ Yeecar what's your monthly income and your job profile? It may be that the CO is unconvinced that you have enough ties to Nigeria. Or maybe the details of the training doesn't match your job description.

@ Asorock1 I am so sad @ this turn of events from the shoddy treatment @ the french consulate to the final outcome. Ndo o? I'm so sorry.

Oh thanks alot blawwi1. My monthly income is 99,554 naira. the training is 100% connected with my job as a matter of fact, my employers are willing to sponsor the trip. they even gave me an introductory letter to that effect, i told the CO but she didnt ask for the letter. Or was i suppose to have shown her the letter not withstanding? Am just confused you know.

[quote author=tzetzefly]Sorry to read of your refusal, but there are several factors involved that may have resulted in such outcome. This factor should be clearer if we know what Federal Civil Servant you are?

But the only pointer i can think of that led to your immediate refusal, maybe unconnected to your visa category which you choose i.e. a B1 visa. The proper category should have been under a J-1 visa. I believe this would have been more tolerable to the Visa Officer.

Thanks alot bro. i work with the federal institute of industrial research oshodi, its a parastatal under the federal ministry of science and tech. I saw the J1 category but i taught it will be difficult considering the long process. Honestly am confused, I will really apreciate it if you can kindly put me through the process of applying for a J1 visa. thank you. Hope its not late considering the fact that the training is by january 2014?

princess chloe: saying sorry is not an issue for me. but how do u handle someone who keeps apologising and never stops yelling and insulting. #apologyisaroutine#

You are lucky to have someone who apologizes to You. If it were me, I will so make life miserable for you.! Why would you keep doing things that will Upset Your patner?

jidegirl12: I honestly can't process why someone needs to raise their voices at me before they're heard? I think it's a very bad manner and lack of home training. Maybe cos I work with mostly white people and has never in my entire life been yelled at from childhood , I will not tolerate any razzo / low class behaviour in the Real world or your arsè will be seriously whipped courtesy the boyz, (zero tolerance for rubbish )... It all ends here .

my kids startle when I blast loud music or cheering at games , they'll freeze and turn blue if they're being yelled at directly.

Viv... one thing is sure, you can't change anybody to what you want, your own man will come , please don't settle for what you can't cope with in the long run.
other good people will advice you on your other struggles.

100% Trash!!!
You are ILL manered and UN reasonable!

SpicyMimi: Dear Future Nairalanders,

How'r you? How is the weather suituation in Nigeria? Stil predictable? Never was anyway.
How is Nigeria now?
During the early 2000s', Nigeria was in a complete mess! We had terrorists like 'Boko Haram'' led by a Man called SHEKAU. They were behind the causes of so many damages in Nigeria. They burnt houses, schools, churches, and sometimes Mosques. President Johnathan was the ruling president and i think he really tried his best, cause he ws/is just a human like us, though i wont list him as one of the best Presidents.
So how is the state of the country now? Am sure Boko Haram no longer exists.

what about thr Power supply suituation? Do you enjoy 24/7 electricity now?
Electricity has always been a constant problem and issue in Nigeria, its so devastating and really frustrating, we hope things are better now...and hope darkness is no longer part of Nigeria's problems.

How are your schools like? Do you still write WAEC? And the so-called JAMB?
Your teachers are they well qualified? Or just lazying around gossipn like they used to? I hope things are better now! And i hope no one sits at home for years before getting admission into his or her school of choice.

The churches and Mosques? Do they still preach about Salvation? Or is it about wealth and things of the world?
During this time of ours, people really ve forgotten their goals in the church, it has all been diverted to the riches and wealth of this world....just few still stand on their goals.
I hope indecent clothes aint allowed in churches ? It was allowed in some churches here bt i hope it has reduced.

How is the civilisation there? In terms of good roads, clothes, phones,houses, food, tradition etc
Do you still use BlackBerry? Iphone? Android? Nokia?
These wr the trending phones then.

Do guys still were skinny jeans? Likewise the girls? Is colour riot or locking stil acceptable?
What kind of shoe is trending now? Too bad we cant get anwers to this.

Love existed partially here....som blivd in it while some didnt, how is it now? Do love still exist or has it been completely wiped off? Please if it has, revive it back cause Love is a beautiful thing.

What music is trending now? Who are the best musicians and actresses now? 2face, Psquare, Dbanj; wizkid, Tiwa savage, Asa, MayD, Davido, Banky W, Wande, Kcee, and so many of them were hot here...
And the best songs trending for now- Kcee-limpopo and Davido-Gobe....i hope you dont find these songs annoying and absurd.

How is Nollywood? Still in existence? Have they improved from love and romance movies to something more creative and sensible? Have they stopped the habbit of wearing skimpy skirts and shorts? Or is it now unimmaginable?

How is Nairaland? Has it been sold by now? Or has Seun's generations taken over? Do you find Nairaland interesting like we all do here? What about the Mods? Are they strict and nice?
We have a popular Mod here, his name...Sexkills' he is/was the most popular, strict and most hated.He fell in love twice on Nairaland with two Mods-1.Ijebabe and the 2. Ogugua..i hope they ended up together. Do you have anyone like that now?

We have another popular mod- Mukina. We dont know if Mukina is a she or a he, but frm my research she or he ws d most strict of all! S/he could ban u for life out of Nairaland, and one thing about Mukina is that, you hardly see his or her comment on threads, except for links and closing threads.

Who is the most beautiful and the most handsome? We got so many beauties nd cute guys here sure u got the best of them.

My advice: dont sell your love for sex and sex for love, sell your Love for Love.
Stay out of trouble as much as you can and most importantly give or surrender your lives to Christ as He is the only way.

Have a nice and great time in your well civilised world.

I was Here!

Lilimax: This is not true at all.Boko Haram members carry out their suicide misson based on the promises of 72 virgins in Al-janah. This is what they are thought in their religion. Afterall 99.9% of Boko Harams are Moslems.

'moslems'You Among the 72 virgins abi? Your busy spreading rumour with your sadistic mouth. Where is your evidence of Blood spilling and promise of Virgins? Bloody hypocrite!
Ode! Oponu!

ogugua88: [size=13pt]If you feel that staying in that kind of environment may lead to you retaliating, then I think it's best that you leave her while she's angry. That gives you some time to cool off and hopefully she'll do the same when she's alone. When you're calm, go back to her and ask her why she's angry. Then, tell her why you're angry. Try to discuss the situation and find a resolution for it.[/size]

Omo_Tier1: I hope you watched the Olympics in London on your screen and you probably was shouting high heaven when Usain bolt bolted away in that final? Do you know how many people were evicted for that Olympic park to be built? Those that couldn't meet the compensation requirement were relocated soonest to much less desirable place because the government wanted to rejuvenate that part of East London using the Olympic as a trigger.

Can I ask you a simple question? Was alternative made for those evicted or not? When did the state government first serves them notice of eviction? If none, why did they not go to court to sue the government? At least Fashola has shown He. Obeys court orders. Please answer those questions....

Your Questions are very dumb and childish....How Old are you in the first place?
