Hello everyone. My wife's F2 interview is near and I saw online that i need to request for a separate i20 for her. There is claim I found that f2 also get their own i20 and this is confusing. So I really need guru's in the house to please address this and also give directives on the necessary docs to go with and the does/dont.

Best regards


Hey 🤠

** How did she book her F2 appointment without her own copy of the I 20 initially ?


1. Anyways , you have to request for Dependent I-20 officially from your host-institution and there are some forms and financial evidences you have to submit to your USA institution in that regards, and if successful your I 20s can be processed within 5 business days.

2. You will be issued an amended Form I-20 to reflect the total number of dependent (s) joining you in the USA.

3. The amended Form I -20 will become your valid I-20, and should be attached on top of your old I-20.

4. Additionally, an I-20 will be issued for your wife to apply for an F-2 visa in order to join you in the USA.

5. She will pay MRV, fill DS 160 and attend F1 interview .


Best Wishes 🙏

I’ve decided to interview together with my family
: Wife and 2 kids.

Since I’ll be traveling alone first and they plan to join in January next year.

Is it okay to indicate that I’ll be traveling alone in my DS160 or indicate I have companions?? I indicate I’m traveling alone and fill for them as traveling as a group.

Should I put different date of departure in my DS160 or I should input we are leaving together same date. Please advise 🙏🏽

If you’re applying for visa for them, it means you’re indicating you’re all traveling together.

1. You cannot receive Form I 20 without submitting financial evidences to cover at least your first year tuition expenses. 95% of institutions in the USA will ask for it.

Hey 🤠

1. Your blood or extended family is better than a family friend . There is no relevance in family friend . Friend is friend , we can just say your old time close friend .

2. Therefore. Your aunt in the USA is in the best position to stand as your sponsor . Don't use combination. Use your aunt.

Hello everyone, please I wanted to book appointment date for my sister in Abuja. The earliest date I am seeing there is in October. She is planning to go for fall semester. I needed a closer date. I thought since it’s her first application, I will be able to get one closer. I wanted to ask what are the latest ways of getting earlier dates for new applicants. I don’t know if maybe I should book the October date and later request for emergency appointments if that is still working. Please update me on the latest on how I can easily get a closer date. Please I would your answers thank you.

Hey 🤠

1. It's like you are telling the consular that your next of kin is your best friend because you are single. The next question from anyone would be don't you have family ?

2. If your friend is a popular or well known personality like Dangote , Alakija, Ejindu, Okoli etc you can use him or her. But tactically , it's still not too reasonable .

3. Your friend can liase with your sister and give out his or her own financial quotas to your sister while your sister still remain your sole sponsor . Blood is ticker than water . Tell your friend that embassy usually doubts the authenticity of non related individuals spending millions of naira on your overseas education without any financial or future gain.

Hey 🤠

1. Let's assume that your secondary school principal ask you thus ; Come for your WAEC certificate next year but you must wear our school uniform when coming ? Even if you have discarded your old high sch uniform , you can as well go and get a new one just for the sake of your certificate.

2. Now , you are on Nairaland like ; Pls teach me what lies can i tell my school principal because i cannot get the school uniform 😊 .

3. Naturally, a USA consular will not ask an undergraduate F1 applicant to go and get scholarship next time , what he or she is concerned about is how your sponsor is going to cover your 1st year tuition and living expenses , how sound or outstanding student you are , your exact reasons of choosing your program of study and why did you choose USA, as well as how you are going to prove tie of returning back to your families .

4. USA Colleges and Universities are not selling scholarships and it's not a birth-right of any international applicant, therefore a CO will not enforce you to get scholarships or fundings (except in a rare case Msc , but PhD especially) or based your Bsc F1 visa on getting scholarship.

5. If your dad can prove the availability of the $31k and you passes other consular questions, then why not ? Your F1 visa should be approved.



Best Wishes 🙏
Please, a quick one
Can a F1 applicant uses “step father” as a sponsor?
My deficit is 25k
