Good evening all, I'm truly glad to be here. I just got a second refusal on my US F1 visa application for Masters program
School to resume August 25th 2022

The first reason was that I didn't convince the VO that I had enough funds to set up an NGO after my Masters program,thus she wasn't convinced I'll return (May 31st ,2022)

The second one, there was no interview reason was that my appointment application was not properly selected ( I should have selected previously refused instead of Regular) June 17th , 2022

Right now, the Lord is my strength .
Please I'm open to advice , suggestions and best way forward.
Please assist me
Hold on! For your second trial, you mean that you got to the embassy and after queuing up, you were not interviewed Because you ticked regular in your application appointment instead of previously denied ?

When yes they start that one

The guy said my sister would have to pay the $250 before her gre result will be sent to the schools she applied to.
This information was not given to her before she paid the 50k for the registration last year October.
The guy that collected the money and registered her is NONSO by name.
Most guys here should know him.
He even told my sister to register again.
Could you imagine.
Please, I need help here.

I don’t know how but please find a way and cancel that check and use western union. The person should take the coupon and go to the nearest WU agent and you will get your confirmation almost immediately.
Or use someone here and pay

Well it can't be cancelled. It in transit already.

Thank you for this......but I can’t see request emergency appointment again on my dashboard

That's because you have used it. You still have one more reschedule or 2 sef on this visa fee. Until you exhaust it before using another one.

Hmmmm the organization in charge of that exam put a stop to the discount so everyone involved will have to pay the full amount for the exam.

But what stopped NONSO from telling us.
This is absolutely wickedness. We didn't plan for this. $250 is not 10k

I'm highly disappointed

Yeah we know him, quite known in the business.

I've heard of similar cases in the past, and they somehow get resolved either by the person that registered you(your sister). its application go wrong. It happens with TOEFL cheap registration centers too.

Please, help us and talk to him to find an urgent solution to this issue so that my sister can have her scores sent to the schools as other requested documents has already been sent.
We do not know how to handle this issue on our own neither do we have the balance of $250 to pay gre officials as we didn't plan for this.
Thanks and remain blessed

If it’s a check and has not been cleared, a stop order can be requested(although I believe you will be charged). A friend of a friend did that when her payment was taking forever.

I was facing the same problem. I had applied for emergency appointment and after that I was unable to check regular dates calendar, whenever I clicked on "Reschedule", I was getting message that there are no dates available. Then I called the helpline and they said to cancel it first and then select again, so I did that and it worked for me. However do it on your own risk.

So you had to cancel the EA request and search for regular dates?
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Radarada08: 11:30am On Jun 19, 2022
Hi guys. Please I have some questions to ask the int'l graduate students who are currently in USA (I don't know if anyone has asked them before).

1) How do you cater for yourself? For people who receive GA/TA monthly stipends, is it usually sufficient for you for the entire month, especially after paying rent and other course fees? If yes, great! If no, what do you do to supplement it? (Besides asking for help from your family).

2) Are there other on campus jobs you can combine with your GA position (maybe for 2-3 hrs) that can pay you (just to make ends meet, especially if you don't rely on your family)?
I know F-1 students have 20hrs/week to work. But a student told me on LinkedIn that her GA is actually 23hrs. Hence my question.

3) How did you sort out your accommodation in the US before leaving Nigeria? Most of the students I've spoken with on LinkedIn said they had friends that they squatted with for a few months. What if you don't have any friend there? Are there websites once can check for available apartments (PS: I'm going to Tennessee).

4) How much will you advise an int'l student to enter the US with? Just something substantial enough to cover accommodation, feeding, and other miscellaneous expenses, pending when they start receiving their GA stipend?

@chibertha, @UmmZayd, @beejhay69, @Walspring, etc. (And any other person who can contribute to the questions asked).

Thanks.

First I had a book a regular date in order to request EA. After I made EA, I did not hear anything from embassy for almost a month. I tried to contact embassy a few times and they kept on saying that they cannot tell how long it will take and suggested that I can keep checking for available dates. However whenever I tried to check dates, I was getting following message (see screenshot). Then I contacted the help line and they asked to cancel the appointment and make new, so I did that and then I was able to see calendar and available dates.
