    I got my visa yesterday as a first timer. Your tips helped me a lot now here are some of the tips I will give people here
    1. American visa application is a thoughtful process. You must have how you want to do it before setting out
    2. One of the most important information they require from you will be in that ds160 form. If you don't fill it very intentionally your chances will dwindle even when you stand a good chance by tweaking simple things
    3.being married, having a long working history in a professional setting, a good income or at least a sponsor who has (especially if the sponsor is a professional like a surgeon or engineer), if asked to describe your job briefly you have to make it very catchy - e.g there is a difference between I sell pure water on the streets and I am the sole water distributor in my region and I ensure that there is good water supply and I ensure people don't go into dehydration),
    4. On the interview day please dress well because most people that got the visa were well dressed. Don't go there in a jean and polo. First impression matters put on a shirt and trousers with or without a tie. If you wear a suit then don't put on a tie so it doesn't look like you are overdoing it. Be confident in whatever you do, look at the consult directly with a simple smile when necessary.
    5. Before the interview your DS 160 will already be speaking for you. When asked a question please sound natural, sound practical and don't speak on and on and on. At least in 30 seconds you should have finished am answer or even less depending on the question. Examples
    - why are going to study in xyz school - this guy went on and on and on about how he wants to come back and end terrorist insurgency in Nigeria when he is through with studies - now it's obvious that is impractical and bogus
    - a lady was asked what do you do when you are not schooling and she started answering she was at it and I went in for my interview and came out and she was still answering. You can't be a student and be working harder than a full time worker.
    There are so many practical things you can say
    Those consules are trained at the job
    The last thing the consul said to me was " your ds160 looks good and there are no issues with it .- this tells you that form is critical and you must know everything in it by heart
    Lastly don't pay any agent to fill forms for you. I made that mistake and when i found out my form was actually empty I was only lucky to find that I can redo it and reupdate my profile. Which I did.
    Good luck everyone

      After you filled and submitted your ds160 form, when did you do your interview? A month after ? Two weeks after ?
      Because I’m seeing a long wait time here

      @stanleyezidiegwu7187 Год назад

      @@atselefuntemitope6179 there is a long wait time. Nigeria for example it’s up to like 2025. First things first if you are in no hurry pick a date. Then it’s either you find an agent to give your profile log in details to get you a new date or you do it yourself by being online often checking for more recent availability. You can change your ds160 form and resubmit and update your profile 3 days before appointed interview date

    I said that I will cover my travel cost in DS-160. The consular officer did not give me time to explain myself she just gave me the pink letter for refusal so my question is;
