@ savemysoul: One more thing. When asked why u're going for B.sc & not masters, plss don't say it's because no US sch wil accept HND. Instead say "it's because u really wish to have a strong background in computer sci & not just to hav the degree". May GOD favour u, Amen.

Hi Guys,

I have not been on this forum for a while but was impressed with your activities on this page when I came back online.

Can someone tell me how to make the sevis payment via western union (quickpay) option in Dallas, Texas? My brother can't seem to get the same payment form displayed on DHS website at the various cashpoints he visited.

Anyone with an idea how to go about it?

Thank you,

@ Bomly,
I'm really very sorry about that.

@ All
I used to think that Abuja is very promising for visa interviews. But with this Chinese woman there, is Abuja as safe as it is painted to be? Does it really make sense to leave the embassy very close to one in Lagos, subject oneself to unnecessary stress and go to Abuja and yet be denied by that Chinese woman? She asks u predictable questions, and I have not read of anyone who satisfied her. Do we still generalize that Abuja is the best despite the amounts of denials from that embassy lately?

@House my own advice,Lagos or Abuja as soon as you get inside the final room,check out for the nice ones and very mean ones,and always use the rest room as many times as possible if you think the very mean ones will call up on you,and rejoin the queue from the back,and pray in the process ooo, Who's Next?

Captain Young M, Are we flying anytime soon??Fasten your seatbelt you guys, Here we go, We out Guys, see you guys in Obama land

@ God pikin
