Hello Members and professors of this great forum I'm humble and delighted to be part of this forum.

I'm Ibrahim Gbanya from Monrovia Liberia west Africa I'm 31yrs old single without a kid. I'm also a Post graduate student on National DPL on procurement and logistics and I'm also a gospel minister. My desire and dream has been to move to USA this year 2026.

But the thing here is i didn't have any family members living there 😨😭

I don't really know the next step to take

Hello and welcome !


Even if you had family there, It wouldn't have been easier for you to move to the US.


You need the proper visa. Find here what types of visas are available : Visas for the US


Contact the US embassy, they'll be glad to guide you : https://sl.usembassy.gov/


All the best

Moving to the USA without family there is possible but it usually comes down to choosing the right legal path and being realistic about timelines. Common options people look into are study programs, work-based visas, or the Diversity Visa (DV) lottery if eligible. Each has its own requirements and costs, so researching official sources and planning ahead is important.

Indeed at this time it is very difficult. The US has just suspended immigrant visa processing for 75 countries and one of them is Liberia.
