Hi All,

I am new to this forum and appreciate every comment made by various individual. Indeed I am to go for an Interview very soon in one of the US embassies in Nigeria. I would like to know the kind of questions and answers i can give to enable me get my student visa. I am asking because there was a topic that came up last two years and the consular gave example that why most nigerians are being denied study visa is because they give wrong answers. He sighted for example if someone is being asked if he or she has relative in US, that its obvious the person says yes but the answer should be NO. Now, being sincere and telling the truth, will it affect the issuance of student visa?

Please I need help on this and the type of questions and answers i can face when being interviewed soonest.

Thank you all

Emmanuel

Agree with both of the above, seems the most common problem.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

well the consulate cares most about you returning home to Nigeria after you're done with your studies (because the F1 visa is a nonimmigrant visa). so even if they ask you if you have relatives in the US and your answer is yes, be sure to also tell them that you have strong ties to your relatives in Nigeria and that most of your family is in Nigeria.

The lies always come back to hunt you. Be confident and tell them why you will return home after your studies...if your answer isn't convincing enough then you will be denied . I can guarantee you this question will be asked and nobody can tell you how to go about answering this particular question.

Lying and caught gets you banned, telling the truth can get you denied. You still always tell the truth. Also for Lagos I know they do a very thorough interview of your subject. So like if you were coming for math be ready to be quizzed and you better be quick and think on your feet. I have been there witnessed with my own eyes it was amazing.

They know many a Nigerian come in their with fake papers of acceptance to colleges they have not been accepted to.

There is no right or wrong but there's the truth so tell it.

Why would you EVER want any answer someone gives you. Questions sure ask. Answers that's on you.
