Depends on your service provider. My Whatsapp call works fine like 90% of the time.
I don't understand why everyone is talking about paying.
Or is there something I'm missing out.
Please enlighten me.

Really .........Most of my Whatapp calls to Nigeria , US, UK are usually rubbish , keeps breaking and reconnecting . I dont use it for that reason

Maybe work on this that you said the VO said
you are not qualified at this but you may wish to try again when your reason for applying changes.
I rather you apply for a BSC or MSC since you have a BSC and not CC

Thanks alot. This really helps.

Yea, not trying to lie but to avoid too many questions ni o

Is better to have too much question and answer them to get your visa rather than lieing all in the name of hiding to avoid too much question

Buhari has a very good plan for Nigeria but the problem here is, the past administration messed up the whole place before leaving.

Blaming this man everyday cannot solve any problem. At least, stealing has been controlled for now. It's no longer rob Peter to pay Paul.

Nigeria will bounce back if only everybody could make it happen. The Chinese experienced the same thing but look at where they are today. It's all about working together to make the country great again.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

but he gave out majority of dollars to just single person and you and i are crying beforewe could get $$$ and begging to buy or spend above $100 in a month

Hello house i a silent follower of this trade.....

I was denied on tuesday....i got admission to study an associate degree in nursing in a community college in Maryland in August this year but i have a BSc in Human physiology so VO said why go for an associate degree when you have a Bsc already? i wanted to defend it....he just handed me the pink leaflet...you are not qualified at this but you may wish to try again when your reason for applying changes.

I want to ask...how long is the waiting time before re-applying?
Thank you.

The vo concluded because the VO felt you did the wrong thing and the road is already cleared for you to see and do the right thing..

Wake up and leave that your adviser who advised you to go for CC and i feel sorry because same money you spent on the CC can be spend on a university as well..

Go and apply for new Bsc or Msc

In as much as i wouldn't want to derail the purpose of this thread, i will also not shy away from quickly reacting to your post.
We all have to be frank here, governance is continuum, you inherit both the assets and liabilities. You need not to throw blames at anyone, if you are sincere, have your plans and also up to the task. This govt hasn't been encouraging, lack focus and experienced managers. Fortunately, the govt inherited more of assets that could be easily capitalised and consolidated upon for our national progress, than liabilities, from the immediate past administration. But the govt seems to be only interested in the assets, while they quickly do away with the liabilities by throwing unnecessary jabs at past administration.
This administration from all indications, doesn't have the masses at heart, its all about victimisation and hunting of shadows.
Unfortunately what we are presently witnessing in the country in the political and administrative strata is all a game plan of 2019. The El-rufai, Amaechi, Fashola, Fayemi, Amosun, Mamman Daura, et al have formed another cabal, gotten hold of the govt from Buhari who has since lost being in charge, the reason an Aisha cried out recently. All in the bid to spoil the Fulani's man administration, make him worthless and unelectable by 2019 (if he eyes it by then), as El-rufai/Amaechi presidential ambition for 2019 is the major cause of our woes in the country at the moment. You can doubt this, but past events and future events will keep justifying it.

All be it, its not an unfamiliar political terrain. God will rise up at the right time to deliver us.


Nah here you dey carry first... grin grin grin grin

Good day all, i appreciate ur efforts in ensuring success for everyone here. God will reward u all.

Pls i want to know if VOs normally check for one's information online during interview. For example, d VO searches google to get details on LinkedIn, company's website, etc just to confirm if d answers given by d candidates are true. Can dis really happen?

Reason why i want to know is because, i already hav an M.Sc here in 9ja and I'm going for another M.Sc in d US and i never mentioned dis in my application and all that. But it can be seen on my organization's website n some other professional sites.

Advice pls. Thanks

i think the VO should come and answer the bold aspect

is better you go back and fill your nigeria MSc in your profile and going for Msc in another field is an added advantage during your interview because you should be ready to state why this new field and if possible lecture the VO as well..

All schools? where did you get that infomation from? I dont even know of any school that does that and yes you can use different SOA provided that it matches what is stated on your i20. e.g like if its stated that 'family fund' you can use any of your family members but i have heard of schools that specifically state the name of the exact family member, if that is the case, i don't it will be wise to change it

someone once posted that in her school they do such but i believe US government/embassy can do such..

Guys i just came across this on NL in past post....Please how true is it
I know for sure that all schools upload all the documents you used in securing your admission(Test Score reports, Statement of Account, SOP, Recommendation Letters e.t.c) to the SEVIS database and the VO looks them up.

Please who has had cause to change the statement of acct he use for admission and to another he use for Visa Interview

Someone talked about such before and why are you afraid, its possible to have double sponsor or change sponsor i could remember that girl named Laura in 2014 or 2015 i cant remember the exact year, she used her dad but went with his uncle statement and she got her visa

Western Illinois university, western Virginia and wright state uni(na only 2 Sch I apply for sha). Why western Illinois university? I found an ongoing research at the department of Heath with aligns with my area of interest. So tell me what is health sciences? Health sciences is an interdisciplinary field that centers on promoting quality lifestyle and diseases reduction. Vo..so tell me about your research interest... me..it is actually HPV(human papilloma virus)this virus is known to be cause of major cancers; especially cervical cancer. Vo...Are you coming back or staying back in the US to continue your research...I am coming to Nigeria, at this time HPV awareness in Nigeria still very low, even recently American association of clinical gynecologist recommend HPV screening as the primary screening for cervical cancer. Vo....did you take jamb. Me.....jamb, I am going for a masters degree. Vo....who is sponsoring you. Me.....my aunt and her husband. Vo.....what does she do. Me...she is into oil and gas...she has filling stations and cooking gas plant within Lagos...showed her bank statement and fixed deposit funds. What does your parent do? My dad is an hotelier while my mum sells sugar, rice and wheat in wholesale scale. Congratulations ..I will be approving ur visa. I didn't hear any single thing after this. Thanks @warriboy for helping out with my SEVIS fee....I wasn't coherent with my response at the beginning but after a while I gained my confidence back..

Congrats and enjoy your stay in Obamaland

Cheers!!

has anyone paid visa fee online as a Gtbank user ?
queue is crazy n I've d option of paying online , want to b sure how it works ?
Plss who has tried it before

Yes and it was successful but make sure you have printer connected to your laptop or computer or save the receipt page, make sure you use google chrome if you don't have printer connected to your device and saved it on your laptop as pdf file

If you make payment and it went through but didn't show you confirmation page and your money was deducted, do not make payment again just contact GTbank card services or customer care they will get it done from their end and send you the receipt

Hello folks! please how do u guys choose schools which are far from major cities? for e.g schools in kansas, missouri, Kentucky, Connecticut are far from New York, Washington, Atlanta, Houston in which there is direct flight from Nigeria? do u join domestic flight or bus to ur destination on arrival in US?

Students chose school based on their choice and that suit and match their profile and finances..

You can get connecting flight when you land in any US airport if there is no direct flight to your destination
