Visa refusal
I applied for a visa at the France embassy in lagos nigeria on the 8th of Dec 2014,I was refused they reason was that I will not come back, I was surprised of this, the same embassy gave me two visas three months in 2013, one year molitpul,in 2014 I did not stay back in France Leving my six children my wife and my good business. What do you people take us nigerians for? Well I think is not your fault it's the fault of nigeria government, please give us some respect all of us are not the same, I just wanted to spend some time in France.

I am Swedish but live in France both EU countries
An officer at the consulate denied my wife to hand in her visa application because they wanted conformation from OFFII in France. Because I am an EU national I can't apply at OFFII.Because the EU leagal framework overrides OFFII's regulations.So she is excempt from OFFII's regulations. Are you aware of this officers?
