FOLLOW UP ON MY VISA REFUSAL
I spoke to another lawyer in New York, and she told me that under the law, they can deny me for not including all member of my household in the application.
She said that under the same law, they(the people in Lagos) can waiver this law if they think I merit the VISA, she added that I should appeal it,
because; One,The reason they specified does not apply to my case. (section 212(a)(5)(A), which is for qualifications based on profession/employment certification.).
Two that they can waiver the rule that says you must list all members of your household.
Three, that I don't have anything to lose, by appealing it.
And if anything I should appeal it as soon as I can.
This is something you would have let us know. Not including her wouldn't have meant you denied your paternity. She can still come and join you. I want you to know that people in your shoes, do it that way.The girl will still be happy with you. Some folks do all these for their kids.With dual citizenship, they can move around and go after more opportunities.
Well, keep up the struggle and that is why DV2012 people are battling with KCC and DOS.It is better than 'siddon dey look' we have here. Again Nigerian Govt is so bad that they don't bother. As they collect theirs through Diplomacy..we are left in the lurch.That is why I never voted for any of them and will never.
