LAMBA! No dey bobo people. The CARE ACT is for Americans. If you got it, you have just gotten something that may work against you in the future. See, you are just landing don't be in haste to get rich in America. The Care act does not even pay all americans in college, it is through a nomination and the bulk of payment goes into most of their school debts.

Perhaps you should forward this to my school that specifically indicated that international students can apply for these funds. And I guess all the international students in my class will get into trouble according to you. If you don't know something, ask. Stop trying to prove ITK.

Instead of you to find way collect your own, any money related to COVID is for everybody.

Hi guys,
One of my friends got expelled from a school in UK because her programing skills weren't that good and she failed one course after two attempts. Though it was online, data and network issues and Lagos long hours of work and traffic affected her badly.i told her to apply to Alabama because of no application fee. Now there is a disciplinary section to choose yes or no if she has ever been dismissed from a school by misconduct or otherwise. What should she do now please?

We got this CaRE act, we also got the Last 3200$. Even though the care AcT is suppose to be between 1000 to 2000. I don’t know how she/he got 4000 but yes, it’s for all students studying in America and anyone affected by COVid

This was my exact experience at Abuja although it was only my brother in the US. Meanwhile I'm married, i dont know how it is a big deal for two siblings to genuinely study in the US.



Milan25:
I was denied Visa on the 16th of September in Abuja because I said I have a brother and a mother in the United States. I was surprised because I told the Visa Officer I was married but he still denied me the Visa. Please how do I answer better next time as I will be going for my third interview this Month. I thought Marriage is enough proof of ties?

On your second attempt, You were denied because u failed to wait for 2 months before going for another attempt. I guess you used an agent who probably knew about this but refuse to tell you because of money. When booking an appointment you are specifically ask if you have be denied visa within the past 2 months. If you click yes, no visa date will be available to you. If no, then you can schedule a regular appointment. Beware of those agent. I was a victim. My advice try and get a date from November 16. DO NOT GO FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT THIS MONTH!!!

This was not the reason for his denial sir. You said you were a victim? Did the VO tell you that you were denied because you didn't wait for two months? You got denied the second time doesn't mean that it was because you didn't wait for two months. I have a friend that got denied in July and she went back in August and her Visa was approved. I think the problem is because of his mom and brother that are over there.

Good morning everyone,

My sincerest apologies for just responding to those who asked me to submit my transcript and I didn't. Honestly, I was disappointed in myself that I didn't come across this thread at all, before going in for the interview. Reading a few transcripts here, made me feel I didn't deserve or work hard towards preparing for the interview. Just like you asked, I'll post it and then I'm including the new transcripts I'm working on for my next interview.

Please review and put in your input. I won't mind a mock as well. I need all the help I can get.

Please @Fairheart @LagosismyHome @Pefuele @Brown2Green @Nobody @NigPatriot @Textrem @Time2win @Tesla, I am willing to learn. I also welcome anyone willing to help in this regards. Many thanks

Why not study in Nigeria?
Without requiring extra months of study leave at work or an extended stay in the US, I have the opportunity to modify my curriculum and take some certification courses in other fields. I won’t have that opportunity here in Nigeria.
