Lol... grin grin grin.. I am telling him past experience and is that a bad thing

Anyway I tagged it as normal that leads to abnormal because they already took the risk then why feeling unsafe

Why coming to someone for help but yet having negative thoughts about the person on the help you are requesting for??

They forgot that not everyone are the same. Only those with the fear of God will not scam or run away with such

I can never forget this guy on this thread with user name streetmic

Streetmic send me pm i mixed your contact with someone else..
Haha oga Sir. I dey here o. How area Na? Thanks for your support way back o.

Long story lerra
Ardedaryor:

Special thanks To God Visa approved today 7:15 batch, the following transpired

VO: Good morning, How are you?
ME:Good morning, am fine and you?

VO:Why are you going to the us
ME:Am going to pursue my bachelor's degree in electrical and electronics engineering

VO:What's you major
ME:Electrical and electronic engineering

VO:Why Brigham Young university?
ME:Aside the fact that i was awards a scholarship that covers my cost of attendance, I choose BYU-I because the integration of research and learing resources at the undergraduate (VO cut in)

VO:What's you SAT score (my brain couldn't decipher this, na so I asked her to come again)
ME:I didn't do SAT but Toefl instead I had 83

VO:Why were you awarded the scholarship?
ME:I believed They were impressed with my extracurricular activity of Two years voluntary services and my Toefl score

VO:Which other schools did you applied
ME:University of Maine (waiting list)
Utah State university (denied)
Idaho state university (admitted)
Brigham Young university Idaho (admitted)

VO:Why not USU
ME:I wasn't offered the admission

VO:aside that BYU-I is covering you full tuition Why do you choose BYU-I?
ME: The learning resources like the Cadence simulator use for creating PCB ì.e printed circuit board spurred my intrest of choosing BYU-I
The next sec, I saw her draw out a paper simultaneously circling and saying your passport will should be ready in 3day you will have to pic it up at this circled location and you will need your I-20 at the POE
(within me : before I go u too go answer question)
Excuse me pls, what else will I need at POE

VO: seriously I was euphoric and did not hear what she said....� � �

Zodam16:
Good evening everyone.

My visa delayed at Abuja embassy yesterday 19th July by an african-american lady probably in her early to mid 30s

See below my transcripts- Kindly let me know what part I Bleeped and how i can do better next time

Vo: good morning
Me: good morning, how are you today?
Vo: can I av ur passport nd I-20
Me: I obliged
Vo: why are you going to the US?
Me: Am going to the US for my masters in public health at Georgia Southern University
Vo: why Georgia Southern university
Me: Asides the fact that Georgia Southern University has a great program curriculum that fits my graduate study needs, I am particularly interested in an on-going research real healthcare reforms focusing on primary care access in under-served population and the rural areas of which my community is presently underserved health wise. This will help me address the healthcare challenges when i return back home (Honestly she wasn't listening because she just kept typing and nodding till she noticed i had finished answering her question)
Vo: what do you do currently?
Me: I work with a health consulting firm as a public health specialist on the CDC/PEPFAR funded ACTION Plus up program where i support over 50 private health facilities in delivering quality HIV/AIDS services to people infected and affected by the disease. I also build the capacity of the health facility staff on proper monitoring of HIV patients. (she was nodding again and staring at her screen so i just thought she was seeing it on my DS160- well guess i was wrong)
Vo: who will be sponsoring you?
Me: My brother and my mum
Vo: (She calls his name because it's on my I-20) what does he do and your mum too?
Me: He works with the federal department of transport and he is also in the US army while my mum is senior lecture in one of the higher institutions in nigeria
Vo: Do you have his account statement with you?
Me: Yes i do
Vo: Can I see it? and your mums' to if you have it
Me: Pass the account statements to her
VO: (She looks at my brother's statement) why will he be willing to use all his savings to pay for your tuition?
Me: My mum will be supporting him with the tuition, so he wont be paying all alone (In my mind, what if he decides to use his whole savings sha)
VO: Your mum doesn't seem to have enough as well to cover for one year tuition
Me: Like i said earlier the one year tuition will come from both parties and not just one person. I also have savings myself
VO: I will be putting your application under administrative processing for now, She hands me the yellow paper and writes admin processing on it
Me: How long before a decision is made? Meanwhile she kept both financial statements and my passport with her, but returned my I-20
VO: I can't tell, but you will receive an email in that regards
Me: Thank you. (Then started to head out)

Feeling very disappointed i called my people and told them the outcome of the interview and they were very positive that they (VOs) probably needed to do more verification on the accounts i presented. A few hours letter, my mum confirmed from her account manager that an email came from the Embassy regarding her account statement i presented. Well my bro did not get any verification on his account.

BTW..... I saw about 6 applicants but i can't for sure say any of us got an approval yesterday

Today i decided to check my passport status since i was yet to receive any email as to what next, i saw a REFUSAL

I would be reapplying again but most likely lagos this time. Kindly go through my transcripts and let me know what i can do better next time

My visa was approved yesterday at the Lagos embassy after my 1st delay in Abuja.

Although yesterday was kinda tough for most applicants, the guy at window 5 did not make it any easier but my case was different. All 3 people before me were denied and that gave made me shiver a little.

See below my transcript

Vo: good morning
Me: good morning, how are you today?
Vo: can I av ur passport nd I-20
Me: I obliged
Vo: what school are you going to?
Me: Am going to Georgia Southern University for masters program in public health with a concentration in health policy and management
VO: What was your first degree?
Me: Agricultural economics and extension (VO gives a shocking look) but I have been working as a public health specialist since graduation
VO: Where did you school?
Me: University of .....
VO: What year did you graduate?
Me: 2012
VO: And you said you have been working since then
Me: Yes
VO: What is the name of the organization and what do you do for them?
Me: ....... health limited and I support over 50 private health facilities in delivering quality HIV/AIDS services to people infected with the disease. I also build the capacity of the health facility staff on proper monitoring of HIV patients by monitoring the stock-out level and ARVs and RTKs which are essential supplies in delivering quality service. I also train the health facility staff on proper monitoring of the patients on quality medication adherence and achieving viral suppression
VO: How many schools did you apply to?
Me: 3 schools
VO: Name them
Me: University of North Texas, Georgia Southern University and University of Alabama
VO: How many admits?
Me: 2, University of Alabama is still pending
VO: So why not North Texas?
Me: I choose Georgia southern university over North Texas (stammered a bit... then composed myself) particularly because of my interest in an going research in the department on real healthcare reforms with a focus on primary care access in the under-served and rural areas of which presently, my community and other surrounding communities are affected.... VO cuts in....
VO: Who will be paying?
Me: My brother and my mum
VO: He looks at my I-20 to confirm the sponsor and said, do you have his financial statement here?
Me: Yes I do
VO: Can i see them please?
Me: Hands him the financial statement
VO: Flips through the financial statement thoroughly
Me: Waiting patiently for the next question
VO: Hands me the document and types for what seemed like 30 minutes......
VO: I will be approving your visa. you will receive an email from us when its ready and gives me the white paper
Me: I said thank you (with a lot of relieve) and left

Special thanks to Texrem, you are the real G. and everyone who has contributed in their own little way to this thread. Thank you.
