Thats what exactly what am thinking.

I would say no since there are no immediate relatives. Plus saying yes may lead to further questions that you may not have answers to.

Good day great people. Please I need guidance. I have a valid Schengen visa on a passport that will expire in October. I just got my US visa on my new passport. I will be travelling in July to Europe and travel to America from Europe.
How do I handle the passport presentation to immigration officers in Nigeria, Europe and America? Do I have to present the 2 to Immigration guys in Naija and in Europe? When leaving Europe, do I have to present the two?
Please your advice is required. Preferably someone that had similar experience.
Thanks

Hello All

I made visa payment in July 2021 for myself, wife and kid. I try looking for date since then, I couldn't.

Is this Visa fee still valid in 2023? It will be 2years in July 2023 since I made payment. Thanks in anticipation for replies.

Yes the VIsa fee is still valid till Sept 2023

Two active Nigerian passports. Since one is allowed to renew his passport 6 months to expiration. Besides, I could only apply for a US visa with a passport with minimum of 6 months validity

the older one should have been cancelled once the new one was activated but this is Nigeria. for your travels attach both passports with rubber band and present both at immigration

If you know an immigration officer call and ask. I was recently informed it is wrong to have two valid passports. The old one should be stamped canceled. It doesn't mean the visa is canceled. Better go to an immigration office to clear this so you don't have issues when you want to board.

Sorry bro !!

Thats why i always advise keeping the archive of your application before submitting. I aways do . (i have the 2012, 2018 and even the 2023 application stored in my mail box). The 1st time i was issued Visa was in 2013 after 4 attempt. I wld remember while i was with the VO she did make inquiry on some of my answers in my previous application. Meaning, they all have your responses stored in their archives. Thats why i aways advice people to be as truthful as possible (as truth can never be wrong) and if you have to lie, stick with the lie cos all your responses are stored for future references.

Since you cant remember, just be prayerful that the VO attending to you is not that detailed. Wish you all the best bro.



Bottom line is just be truthful. I don't archive mine cos everything filled is πŸ’― truth. A VO has once commended me for being honest. She went inside and verified everything I wrote and said.
Please guys no matter how challenging it is just stick to the truth. It will help you years down the line.

I don't think you will have any issues. I'm sure the old passport has "cancelled without prejudice" stamped on it. The fact you also have an active visa in the old passport means you should always carry it with the new one. Simply go with both passports always. The border officer can always flip through both passports and find any information they need. For whichever country you are travelling to, just present the visa in whatever passport to the border patrol and keep it moving, if any questions come up simply say you have a new passport as well and show them.

I have a question guys.

I have gotten I-20 from School A, paid SEVIS fee, submitted ds-160, gotten an initial date for visa interview, but yet to request for Emergency.

I am about to receive I-20 from School B. Once I get the I-20, how can I use it instead for the visa interview?

Just fill a new ds160, update the school B's school code and also update your new ds160 number in your visa scheduling profile. Also for your sevis, do a transfer to school B on the same site you got your sevis coupon (fmjee).
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by Demzy4: 10:32am On May 29, 2023
Thank you very much.

could you clarify what you mean by "update the school B's school code"?

You are supposed to go with him. It is a must until he turns 18. That's when he can attend interviews alone.

Present both always, since you still had a valid Shengen visa on the other passport with less than 6 months validity. The immigration will only stamp on the new passport for admittance
