Common rejection reasons

Common NG rejections (US Nigerian B1/B2 refusal ~40-50% — among highest globally): (1) 214(b) refusal — failure to overcome immigrant intent presumption; (2) Weak ties to Nigeria (unmarried, low salary post-Naira devaluation); (3) Family ties in US raise red flags (~700K Nigerian community); (4) Tourism to Guam alone seen as highly suspicious; (5) Past US/Western visa refusals carry forward; (6) Igbo/Edo/Delta state applicants face additional scrutiny; (7) Asylum claim history in family affects assessment; (8) Document fraud history (419 reputation) affects assessment heavily; (9) Lagos consulate has historic visa fraud cases — extra strict.
