Sent a strongly worded email with convincing points for an emergency visa appointment on Tuesday Night - 6th.


Received an email from the US embassy at 7.30am the next day - Wednesday, scheduling me for an interview on Friday at 6.30am.

Today, Woke up at 5.00am, joined hands with my sister to decree divine Favour.

Bath, dressed and booked an Uber, got to VI at 6.20am.

Went in for my interview at 7.00am

Sent back out because I did not print my DS-160 confirmation.

Rain flogged me, some soldier men even gave me umbrella my who cloth was wet.

A lady helped me to print the DS - 160 form, said I should pay her 5K, I didn’t have any money on me. Begged the lady and eventually paid 3500 outta my reciprocity fee.

Went back into the embassy.

VO: Good morning
Me: Hi, Goodmorning

VO: Pass me ur I-20 and visa and da-160 form

VO: where are u going
Me: Going to ...Ivy league school

VO: Great school, but very expensive too, how are u funding it?

VO: Go over there and pay, and enjoy ur stay in America

I go over there, praying for a miracle and the money to double...didn’t happen.
Went out and was looking for whom to borrow money from as I didn’t have my atm. One guy who just finished his interview saw me and asked what the problem was.
I told him, he then called his driver to bring money and dashed me 4K. I quickly begged him to wait for me, so I follow him and drop off at my stop.
He waited for me to pay the reciprocity fee and then told his driver to drop me off the stop close to my house.

Good luck every one

Bross, how did you go about the DS-160 form? Did you fill a new DS form, or you updated the resumption date or you went with one carrying the o;d resumption date. I am assuming you deferred your offer from fall 2020 to spring 2021

I knew my reciprocity fee was short by 3500 but I answered yes, I did not want wahala.

I go over there, praying for a miracle and the money to double...didn’t happen.
Went out and was looking for whom to borrow money from as I didn’t have my atm. One guy who just finished his interview saw me and asked what the problem was.
I told him, he then called his driver to bring money and dashed me 4K. I quickly begged him to wait for me, so I follow him and drop off at my stop.
He waited for me to pay the reciprocity fee and then told his driver to drop me off the stop close to my house.

Good luck every one

Bath, dressed and booked an Uber, got to VI at 6.20am.

Went in for my interview at 7.00am

Sent back out because I did not print my DS-160 confirmation.

Rain flogged me, some soldier men even gave me umbrella my who cloth was wet.

A lady helped me to print the DS - 160 form, said I should pay her 5K, I didn’t have any money on me. Begged the lady and eventually paid 3500 outta my reciprocity fee.

Went back into the embassy.

Thank you! I'm in Ukraine currently.

I said this about 2 months ago on this thread...it is better you apply from your home country. Those who knows better said I was wrong!
Fly to Nigeria and try again! The US embassy in Lagos will grant you an appointment. But it is risky. Which country are you right now? If you are given closer date, will you be able to fly home to appear?

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by fairheart(m): 12:40pm On Oct 09, 2020

Great! Contact Lagos embassy. However, make sure that you're able to fly in case they give you an appointment date.
Either you get the date first, or travel down to Nigeria first then request for the date. But I am confident you'll be given an appointment date.
All the best!

Hey Talllady! You keep sending me message requests, even after I responded to your email.
There's no way you can privately communicate with someone on Nairaland forum. smiley It can only happen through your yahoo email.
Please check the yahoo email address you used to register your nairaland account, and please don't send additional message request.
Thanks.

hello
soa for the interview is that of 6 months interval.
bless.
missuzoma:
Good morning everyone! So we're all rushing now to fully prepare for the interviews; please who knows how recent the bank statement has to be? I mean if your interview date is November 20, for instance, is it okay to get a bank statement ending on like November 5?
Wishing everyone God's grace.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by BrTune: 1:23pm On Oct 09, 2020
Thanks everyone for your well wishes.

I have had to travel a lot, so I have decent experience in visa interviews. Even though I have never been denied a visa, for some reason I felt jittery and apprehensive about this particular interview, so I understand the anxiety most of you feel, but try to stay calm and focused on your goal. We will all be fine, eventually.

In answer to some of the questions:

Reciprocity fee is 42,900.

I specifically requested my school to send a new I-20 after the dates were changed. I didn't want to, but my brother insisted and said he will pay, so I avoid any issues. since he was paying I ordered a new I-20. Paid FedEx 85bucks.

I did not fill in a new DS-160, the old I-20 and the new I-20 carried all the same info, except start date which changed. But I remember that from the start, I filled in January as my start date. So if your start date is still reflecting September/Aug, please fill a new DS-160.

Try to avoid inconsistency at all costs, a guy was rejected because even though he was given full funding, his I-20 said 50% funding. Review ur I-20 for errors or discrepancy upon receipt.

Try to appear confident and calm

Finally, if you believe in God, PRAY, it works!

Please post all inquiries here, I am unable to access my email atm.

Also, Every single country I ever travelled to, I HAVE ALWAYS DONE EVERYTHING MYSELF AND AVOIDED AGENTS LIKE THE PLAGUE. Read and follow the instructions, if u are applying for F1 you are probably literate and computer savvy.

May the odds forever be in our favour!
