Ok BA,KQ Turkish,sema ndege.

LOL. Si u know they advice one against making reservations before confirming visa.


Anyway,there was a guy waiting to be interviewed.
He had brought along his 'wife for interview cz he wanted her to accompany him to the US.

That was the longest interview ever cz it lasted almost 30 min- of intense grilling.
These guys knew it was a sham marriage and they were asking for evidence'especially wedding photos.
'He had married her while studying in India years back.'
Mpaka they were like 'There was no single photo taken at the wedding? not even one a passport size at least? Laughing out loudly
To cut long story short,he went back to Muchatha not the US.

It's a plus on your profile cz it shows you are a frequent flier and you still love your country so much to want to come back.
A busy PP to 'good countries for proper reasons' is an advantage.

Who says that ppl have a funny smell? Sad
Kwani you use lifebuoy??



Depends which part of Asia.... Some countries would be a liability to your CV..... Try going to Israel and you have a Dubai visa.... becomes tougher than if you didn't have any altogether.... same goes to the US and some countries' visas. Raises the level of scrutiny.


If you travel to Pakistan, Yemen, Osman or Saudi Arabia and then want to go to the US, you will be thoroughly grilled! Even having traveled to Somalia. These first-world countries do a SERIOUS background check nowadays.
Set out to correct the world's wrongs and you will most certainly wind up adding to them.

I haven't travel to any of those countries but everytime I travel they usually "Randomly" pull me aside for extra checks, it's become normal for me, someone told me I somehow fit a profile of someone who would do crazy things and the fact that I am not far from somalia don't help either.
