No I wasnt

The date is not active

And that's my dilemma now.

Were you?

.

No, I wasn't. The date is not active yet. What should we do?

My interview was Oct 19th but I didn't go back to pay reciprocity fee until the last Friday the 30th of Oct.

solastar2:


Please, when was your interview?

OliveWalls:
Hello friends,

I did my interview earlier this week but didn't pay reciprocity fee because I was told to come back as they were having network issues at the consulate. I have not been able to return because of the unrest in Lagos and the consulate has since been closed. I am due to return to school in December.

If you were me, will you go ahead to pay for plane ticket(s), knowing that we are not certain of how the events in Lagos and Nigeria at large would unfold.

I know my question is subjective, but I could use one or two different perspectives.

Hello friend

You come here to learn and ask question but got your visa and didn't drop a transcript so others can learn a thing or two . Is that how a mutual beneficial friendship works ?....

or let me give you benefit of the doubt that you drop your transcript once you pick your passport?

Please, do I have to fill out the form on the CGI website before proceeding to pay the Visa fee at the bank, or can I just pay it and fill it afterwards?

Anyone, please?

You have to pay first before you fill it

I don’t think you need to pick the date on your CGI website any longer, all you need to do is go to the embassy on the said day with a printed copy of the email sent to you along with other relevant documents.

Same here. The date isn't active, what I did was to proceed with requesting for emergency and following the instructions in the mail I.e uploading a copy of the mail in attachments.

It was stated in the mail to pick a certain date they made available then book the emergency...

LagosismyHome! The Marshall of our F1 visa thread!

I am actually a returning student. I came home briefly, my visa got expired and then corona happened. I am not sure how my transcript could be helpful as the VO really just had a chat with me. The questions were specific to my school-what's the school's mascot?, do I shop at a particular mall in the city? The VO actually attended a school in the next city to mine. We literally just gisted.

For calling me out, I promise to contribute more to the thread and I hope we continue to be e-friends.

Abuja or Lagos?

Has anyone who had their interview on 30th October received passport collection mail?

Hello all, pls i was refused a student visa last week and i have filled and submitted a new form and and paid the fees, but i cant get a date. The site keeps saying no appointment available. My school start date is Jan 25. Can i get expedited visa appiontment?

@Solihp I used a business SOA for my I20 processing and also took the same SOA for my interview. Why did you say a personal account is better

Hello

I want to reach out to fairheart for mock interview

Lol. I think you should go to Isolo first.

Initially when I did my first interview, on my DS 160 form I filled the company name of my half brother as the one sponsoring me. Now that I am going for the second time, do I changed his company name to his name as the one sponsoring me on the DS 160 form Won’t the VO ask why I’m changing from one sponsor to another?? What should be my answer if asked what has changed? Gurus in the house please I need answers to these questions.

pls how did u get this date?

thedsl:
Hi guys. The April 5th date for Lagos is still there and I booked it, but I can see that the emergency request is for people starting their program within 60 days and mine is like 74 days from now. (18th January). Does that mean I’m not fit to apply for the emergency appointment?

Should I try or just wait till 18th November to request an emergency appointment? Please help. Thank you

please go ahead and try ooo....

Please someone should recommend a nice hotel close to Abuja Embassy.
