They do whenever they wanted to nail people with the visa lottery. I witnessed it live in Abuja consulate. The boy was told he applied for visa lottery and immediately was denied.

I agree however, what I was trying to stress is that it isn't something to be so scared of.

Congratulations on your visa approval smiley

@gbemonology
Sorry for the denial. You must not be deterred to try again.

In response to your question; you can't use the same DS160 you filled in your last interview for the next interview you intend booking. However, some of the info you filled in your last DS160 can be carried over to the new DS160 you will fill as explained by teejay GO01.

Also, make sure you sort out what could/must have caused the denial before appearing for your next interview. All the best!

@yomifowe
Have you taken cognisance of the advice that has often been iterated on this forum on community colleges? If you have but still wish to pursue your aim, I wish you best of luck then.

@ibkgbocco
I wasn't given any green slip sir. I was only given a visa collection letter/form which is a white A4 paper. My passport, I-20 and sevis receipt were also retained but they were all returned to me the day I went for collection.

tweetty: does anyone hav anythn on cheap tickets~ direct or not

What's your destination? And departure date? I guess you'll also be flying economy. Tickets are cheap for emirates. Quickly visit, http://fly4.emirates.com to book and see their prices.
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part4 by bigfrancis021: 7:42pm On Jun 11, 2013
Wow, ticket cost on emirates has finally skyrocketed as expected. Lagos to JFK (economy) that was formerly $750 or so has now been increased to $1295.

My interview was for a student visa renewal. I was asked about three/ four question

VO: where are you going in the US.
Me: blah blah university
VO: why this school
Me: I went visiting and I liked what I saw
VO : How do you intend to pay.
Me: I have a teaching assistanship that covers my tuition and fees.
VO: where did you go undergrad
Me: blah blah university ( it was clearly written on my expired visa)
VO: your visa has been approved.

That was the second renewal of my student visa. I wasn't asked for any documents

True. I got one for $1028 to JFK for early August. Emirates has started accepting online payment but you have to present the card at check-in and it has to be in your name. I used my gtb naira MasterCard and 'twas hassle free

Hello folks, how's everything going? Well, my updated I-20 is on its way but i have two trickish questions to ask. First, should i return to the embassy soon for my re- interview? Second, if the embassy grants me this precious visa, can i go to the US after one year? The F1 VISA is usually two years before it expires. Please i need your candid advice. Thank you so far!
