You people don't need all this again, One thing I know about this embassies of a thing is, if you are ban believe me, you will get the notice after the first time you apply I.e the second time,Embassy won't eat his money again but show him the exit so he will not waste much. So he can try in as much he have the money to pay for Visa fee. Just try your luck again with genuie everything period.

kindly go read the conversation from the beginning. thanks. i mean from where the guy ask the question and the replies

Mystiqme:
dotman2460, you may not know if you have been banned, 'cos they won't tell you. You cannot say future refusals is inconsequential to the argument, if the refusals themselves are hinged on the initial refusal.

confirmento , i have told him ooo and he kept bring this case up and no one is thinking in his own direction. US embassy wont tell u anything, they will keep chopping your 27,200. US EMBASSY= IRUNMOLE TON CHOP MONEY

Idazbawz:
Are parents allowed to go with an applicant above 18?
How did u do it?

, idaw, na so i see am but i think she meant something else plus her transcript was not so clear sef.
idawbawz, My FBI baby. i yaff miss you o

Gigibangs:
nope

so what happened gigibangs, how did your dad entered ? or were u talking abouthim being outside the embassy and waiting for you

gigsbangs are you below 18years ? why did your dad followed your for your interview?

imperiouxx:
lols. VO went in with the statement of account and come back and with refusal. Question is on a good day, does VO go in with applicant's statement of account? It takes no time to call the bank for confirmation. Sometimes VOs pronounce ban and sometimes they don't, it's after applying for like 6 times without any success that the story become clear to you.

He shouldn't waste his money and take it as fate.

confirm bro, that was what i told him and he kept saying how did i know if he was banned or not. na only God fit dash am US visA. anyways how have u been ? guess u enjoyed your Thanksgiving

nice one femoric. welcome to america.

What's UH downtown? Is that the main campus? No , I didn't get funding. The PE/Subsea programs are quite competitive and i was pretty late in sending my apps so it was a miracle I even got accepted. I'm hoping to get some kind of funding/assistantship in the fall otherwise id weigh my options. What do you mean by calling them to send my i20? My programs admission officer promised she would send the mail last Thursday but I haven't been notified or given a FedEx tracking number to monitor my package. If she sends it via regular mail then I'm royally screwed.

the main campus is in downtown Houston. they do not send through fedex, they will send through regular mail, call your admission officer and tell her how you want your i20 to be fixed.

Horayce:
Hopefully this spring. Was accepted at UH's Msc subsea engineering program early in November.That's were i wanna end up but it's taking forever for their i20 to get to me. R u in UH?

am resuming in UH downtown for spring 2015. i just completed some pre reqs at HCC. keep calling them, they will send it. did you get some kind of funding?? UH is quite expensive without funding

Hello All,

I want to update my ds-160 application form and i understand that a new confirmation number will be generated which will now be different from that on my appointment letter.

With this new mail the US embassy sent out recently that the ds 160 confirmation number must match that on the appointment letter. How can I go about updating my profile with the new confirmation number.

I have sent mails to their support desk but their instructions are not clear.

Please advice

my sister in law had the same problem and after she sent the embassy an email, they said she should cancel the appointment and reschedule and still she can not edit the ds 160. let me know if you are able to resolve it. because you have a limit to which you can cancel and reschedule.

is anyone coming to Houston this spring or probably fall

denver is damn so dry. you might get bored and its so hard to see black peepz around.

fellow nairalanders,
I had HND mechanical engineering at the polytechnic Ibadan in 2010,and presently gainfully employed, a friend's friend promised to help me secure admission for my post-graduate in the states, and true to his word I was offered an admission at langston university, Oklahoma for the fall session 2015 but for computer science and at undergraduate level,i have payed the sevis fee @ seme border and the visa booking fee at GTB in October 2014, hoping to book an appointment in November.

but I think I would not be booking any appointment any longer because I have just been offered admission for PGD at FUTA.

so my question is
1. can the sevis/visa booking fee be transferred to someone else/ used by someone else?
anybody in the house that needs it should reply/message me

sorry it can not be transfered

DrCaleb:

My people,
Have your heard, obama has announced the new immigration reform that allows parents of children born in US, lived in the US for 5yrs etc to remain n US and get work permits.

I am thinking, I hope this will not affect the chances of getting visas for preggies wanting to go and give birth in US because automatically, they will assume you want to beat the system and take advantage of the amnesty program.

I think we should have this information handy and prepare a good defense as this US embassy people can start denying preggies using this as an excuse o!

SORRy, not for fresher like you lol. , it is for people that came to usa 5years or more(2009 backwards to 90s) to have there baby and they didnt go back to there country afterwards. it means they gave birth to their america baby and stayed back. the reform is just for them and it might not continue afterwards

isysleek:

NEWYORK

dotman2460:
If the VO was indeed convinced that he presented a fake document, why didn't she issue a permanent ineligibility penalty? I also do not want to believe she would write that he presented presented fake document, when she could have given an instant lifetime ban.

That's my believe.

Maybe, just maybe VO was not entirely convinced that it was fake, hence, 214(b).

mr man, not all VO are hardhearted to give a life ban. the vo still gave him a chance but that doesnt mean the vo wont write a comment stating the reason for denial but since he gt 214b, he can still try but its a slim chance

dotman2460:
If you got 214(B), you should still be able to reapply.

no one is saying he should not apply. inshort with a ban, you can apply and still go back there. the website will allow you to pay but when your records comes up in front of a VO, he will see you have presented a fake document before and only if he destined to come to america, will he get the visa. 212a,214b, 214c. it all bottles down to denial. i didnt write it in any of my post that he should not apply again, i only said he has a red flag on him. the first VO must have written a comment and subsequent VO will perceive him to be a fraud. normal psychology.

dotman2460:
Check the piece of paper you were given to see the reason your visa was refused.
If you got

212(a)(6)(C)(i) - Fraud and Misrepresentation (If you got this, don't bother yourself reapplying)
or this
214(b) - Visa Qualifications and Immigrant Intent (You definitely can reapply if you got this)

Why would you go with a fake document in the first place?

either both, the VO might have noticed fake and written a comment under the reason for denial. any other VO that interviews this guy will surely scrutinize everything.he can only get a visa by luck or if only God wants it
