The change, first announced last year and taking effect this month, follows on a 2017 order by President Donald Trump requiring heightened vetting for visa applicants, according to a State Department official.
An estimated 14 million travelers and 710,000 immigrants to the U.S. each year will be affected by the changes, according to notes in the Federal Register.
The official said national security is the top priority and every would-be traveler or immigrant already faced screening, including requirements to list their travel history, family member information, and previous addresses.
The American Civil Liberties Union had opposed the proposal, arguing the questions would create "an environment ripe for profiling and discrimination."

*Na wah oh..Such stiff measures?At this rate some people will never get visa to enter America again......
If i were you,i would get to work cleaning out my social media handles,the less rubbish you have on there,the better for you.
No need to clean mine, i upload my pictures and off i go
ReplyDeleteNa wa..some people answer incredible names on social media to hack,insult and dupe people.That's a good measure
ReplyDeleteWhat if a person claims not to have a social media account?
DeleteIphie is always acting perfect. Iphie can’t even react violently. You people want me to lose my home training on a blog that isn't mine just to please you abi? You have jammed rock.
ReplyDeleteThe people that were fighting like Eke onuwa market sellers here, where are they? Did you give them awards?
For the ones that are saying they wont submit all their handles, I hope you know that your phone number is needed, that ties you to a lot of activities both the ones you did in the dark😁
And mind you, You cant submit a fresh phone number.
This one is not even my problem, I intend to serve in a Government, that is my long term goal. So I am sorry I will not remove my cloth on a blog. I will not cuss out strangers to prove how ‘real’ I am. I have been here longer than Most of you. I have seen you lot come and go. I have seen the ones that fought like touts here. They ones that chase reasonable commenters away. I HAVE SEEN IT ALL. Ask around, I am the last person to be trolled. Like your trolling gives me blood, no jokes!
Had to tyoe this for the ones that have ears and eyes. YOU ARE NOT ANONYMOUS!!!
I love you Iphie! And would vote for you anytime anywhere!!!!!!
DeleteThey call it "being real, one man fighter", I say it as it is ', I lick no arse' etc.
And I wonder the foolishness that abound in their hearts.
Even the ones threatening and warning.
😂😂😂😂😂.
Namsense.
Be yourself my dear ,some people are plain evil. Even our very own Pat Ogar that didn’t comment more than 2 words “Congra”was also trolled and cussed out.I have being here longer too ,when Stella was having only two comments then.
DeleteThanks babe. I will serve with all my heart😘😘😘
DeleteI am very deliberate and intentional in things I put out, even off this blog.
I don’t want to jeopadise my plans by praises from strangers.
Look at Naira marley, he was REAL, few weeks ago, now hes facing the music alone.
Yen yen yen.. you've been crying like a baby denied bress milk since yesterday..if you're pained, Try panadol before it escalates to using Prozac..
DeleteNawa oo.. anybody commenting here is prone to being trolled. Heck someone insulted stella's nose some days back.. it's not that serious biko.. suck it up.
Oh You are Nadine now? As the real, straightforward human that you are, comment with atleast your blog ID.
DeleteSilence....
You can’t right? You is a HYPOCRITE!!!

Yea, Most people get tired of the bickering and nip picking and just become silent. Thats their aim to pursue everyone.
Hahahhaahah. Don’t mind me, its the weekend thats why I even have time😂😂😂😂 I am really having fun. Never had this much time in a while. Kisses to yours😘
Iphie don't allow the trolls get to you. Some people are just jobless, uncult and only here to make others feel bad. Iphie continue to be the real you. The Iphie I know here has always been concerned for others, pray for people you have never seen before. All you have always given is love and ehugs. God bless you.
Delete@ Nadine, how did you get out from yaba apa osi? Did you scale the fence? Leave Iphie to comment in peace oh, alabosi.

Ajuju n' ese okwu.
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Okotorigba!!!
ReplyDeleteOtu America nkea... Oho! 🙄
lol exactly stella instant clean up
ReplyDeleteEnter your comment...my husband got b2 visa and leaving to America tomorrow. he wiped out his Facebook before applying for it. though he's coming back after he finishes what he's going for.
ReplyDeleteFor him to wipe out his Facebook, it means that he doesn’t plan to go back to Nigeria. If you don’t have Facebook, that’s some kind of alert too.
DeleteBest believe they won’t be spending taxpayers money to be using some special tech to analyze your social media. Email can be scrutinized though to know what you’ve done before with it. As long as you are not a terrorist or yahoo boy and you don’t post about traveling and not returning, you are good! No stress
Na wa o!
ReplyDeletethose who post nonsense on social your karma may come sooner than expected
ReplyDeleteCrazy guy, some guys came with placards yesterday to the white house saying they wanted his impeachment. My friend ran after them and was very happy. Everywhere in Washington has Fuck Trump on it...makes me wonder who voted him then. I hope they don't shoot themselves on the leg like Britain did.
ReplyDeleteI don’t blame them. Any way any country wishes to protect their citizens, by all means they should do so.
ReplyDeleteAnybody wey im hands clean no suppose fear to submit all they ask for.
Periodt!
DeleteGbam.
DeleteJeeeezzz 🙆
ReplyDeleteStella I am wondering what rule my comment broke. You have posted worse reactions from people in the past. You see all the troll comments and enable them one after the other. I am hoping my comment is still going to see the light of day.
ReplyDeleteExcept you are aware of the trolling on me, Please post my first, independent reaction to being trolled. It is very much in line with the discuss. Thanks
She posted it Iphie.
DeleteFinally! I checked and checked😭😭😭
DeleteIPhone dearie kuku kill me 😂😂😂
DeleteLol. Let the social media purge begin.
ReplyDeleteI have a red passport and yes, when I travelled to the United States few months back, I was asked for my social media handle
ReplyDeleteShe ole toyen ni? Even as a red passport holder?? Na wa o
DeleteThey should also check blog handles of applicants.
ReplyDelete😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
DeleteWhy are you like this 🤣🤣🤣
DeleteAbi na 😂😂😂
DeleteYes oo.
DeleteIts very important!
Kind of funny
ReplyDeleteThey will vote for this guy 2020. All he is doing is what the whites have always wanted. I don't blame them sha. Their country their rules.
ReplyDeleteFor those who don't know and don't understand, they are not collecting your social media handles to judge you,this is for those saying leaving your body naked is a problem, I don't believe in any form of body exposure to gain attention but even I know that it is unjust to deny people visas because of how they look, dress or potray themselves. They are looking out for those who intend to stay longer in the USA, have criminal records, potential terriosts and those who plan to be a nuisiance to their society. Be yourselves. They can smell pretence a mile away. What I can't say to people's faces anonymous or not, I don't type, it is as simple as that.
ReplyDeleteOkay
