Yes I have...and it was successful...

tituzadeola:


part of the mistake I made was putting 3 years on my ds-160. I guess I should have filled 2 years instead of the v.o to ask me questions based on my bachelor degree he was asking questions based on my o'level wanting to know when I finished my secondary school and what I have been doing since then.
Again did u take any test?

dickoflife:
As at 15th of this month the vast majority of people here with visa's will begin to travel let us thrash some issues.

1. How much is the minimum PTA to carry in cash for a traveller?

2. Do we need yellow card also called vaccine card to get to the US?

3. Can any immigration official stop an individual from travelling for whatever reason and what is to be done in such a case?

4. Do you need to give anybody money as a first timer? And likely questions to be asked at the point of entry.

Please I need answers so people can learn no insults, the answers aren't for me but we all learn everyday... Cc justwise, gunther6, gunther8, aadeyi, lagosismyhome, deetus, siriddy, msnas, slimmy2005...

QueenID:

Hello house pls I need ur urgent advice, my i-20 indicate 36 months for my Master in HRM ordinarily I was thinking it should be more than 9-24 months.
kindly advice on what to do bcus am skeptical I don't want the v.o to bounce me based on this.

Was in the same shoe...
On my Ds-160 form I filled 2 years as my length of stay in the USA even though my I20 stated 36 months which is equivalent to 3years and as expected, the VO asked me why there was the discrepancy.. I simply told him that a typical student finishes in 2 years and that I contacted my school and they informed me that 36 months was written on my I20 incase there's an extension (didn't contact them tho but I had a printed copy from their website where it was stated..wanted to show the VO but he asked me not to bother.)
I was advised to put 2 years instead of 3 years on my DS-160 form so they won't think that I don't want to come back to my country..lol..

Good luck..

#mybad

I was interviewed on Friday, 1st of July

Greeted the VO with a smile and he was very friendly and calm too and reciprocated too..
VO: Why did you choose xxxxxxx University
Me: I chose xxxxxxx university because of the amount of research going on in the department. I came to know that my research aligns with that of Proferssor Bleep who also happens to be my course advisor and after contacting him, he provided me with useful information about courses to offer and I would really love to work with him. Also, the department has a well equipped software laboratory where I can have practical knowledge....VO cuts in



Sorry transcript is coming late

do you know how much good you will be doing yourself and newbies on here if you reveal the name of your sch?

DeeTus:
I should stay on my lane? Is Nairaland track and field?

It's okay but always remember i told you the truth.

worry359:


Quite correct of you.
It is pathetic how some here just want to copy other people.
Learn transcript answers and practice in front of a mirror.
Copy schools and teachers.
All rather than do a little research themself!

worry359:


What does that matter?
Should every person here apply to the same school, same subject just because one person gained entry.
That is more likely to poison the school against Nigerians.
I do not blame the poster for keeping personal details confidential with people like you copying everything!

Mekurexx:
Ogbeni what you just posted doesn't make sense. Nigerians "poison" schools due to their actions in the US and not on nairaland. Before d girl went for her interview she asked a heap load of questions. If we had given her bleep and xxxx answers would it be fair? And this your constant defence of copying transcript is dimwitted to say the least. will a prospective applicant print a thread full of transcripts and go for interview?

gunther6:


Are you not needed for your usual trolling on Qatar or is it on Bahrain thread or something why you dey put mouth for wetin no concern you? Are you an applicant?? Are you schooling or did you school in the US ... Aproko

@Mekurexx walahi the nonsense don tire me, the gal could not even state the specific date the visa was issued it was 'wed-fri' ... I'm thinking this paranoia has a positive relationship with Buhari's change... People no wan stay... Na wa o

Mekurexx:
All these xxxx and Bleep transcripts! Bullshit! Good riddance to all of you! Already tired of newbies on this thread derailing the flow here. The people that posted full info do they have 4 heads? Or their visa revoked

aadeyi:


1. As a traveler entering the US, u r not expected to carry cash exceeding $10k else, i dont know what can happen.

2. You do not need a yellow card to enter the US, your sch should have specified the type of vaccination you need to have before resumption which i believe the yellow card does not cover. But because of those bad immigration officer who might want to extort u, you might want to get the yellow card which is just around 500naira i guess.

3. Except you are carrying drugs or your visa looks fake, i don't think any immigration officer in his/her right sense will want to stop you when no b him papa give u visa.

4. If you are dangote's pikin or u like doing charity, you can start by sharing money from the airport gate (police man at the gate) down to the terminal gate where the airline staffs are waiting to salute you.

As a student you do not need much explanation or speech to give at the poe cos the officer already has all the info once your passport is scanned. Except you look suspicious yourself and you did not show up in a city that does not correspond with your destination as you have on your visa, then you are good to go. Just comport yourself and dont carry too much food as if the world is going to end.

Goodluck to you all as your journey draws near. Egbon Ade, moti send email si yin. Ejo e dami lohun oooo....
