In a video he shared on his official TikTok page on Monday, March 23, 2026, the US-based Ghanaian content creator shared his experience from the interview process, which aided him in securing his American visa.
According to him, he received advice from his lawyer, which he ignored before he went to the embassy in Accra for the interview process.
The content creator noted that his lawyer advised him to request a translator before he entered the building for the visa interview.
He said:
"When I went for my US visa interview at the embassy in Accra, my lawyer gave me advice that I almost ignored, but it ended up helping me a lot. Before we went in, my lawyer told me something strange. He said when they start your interview, ask for a translator."
Trader of Accra stated that he questioned his lawyer's advice and was concerned that it would affect his performance and lead to the officials doubting his fluency in English.
He noted that his father also advised him to follow his lawyer's instructions before his encounter with the consular officer at the interview process began.

The content creator said he requested a translator during the meeting and that the time the individual spent translating the questions to him helped him prepare well and find better answers.
He said:
"I almost ignored the advice. Then, at the last minute, my father told me to do what the lawyer said. So we went up to the consular officer, and then something interesting started happening."
"The officer would ask me a question. I already understood the question immediately, but because I had requested a translator, the translator would still explain the question to me and that 10 to 20 seconds gave me extra time to think carefully before I gave my answer."
He noted that the lawyer's advice proved crucial and significantly helped him secure his visa and relocate to the US from Ghana.
