Hi guys

I just heard from a friend that for USA visa interview, you don’t need bank statements. She said she heard from a friend who went for her interview last week.

She said the bank would give a code or something like that then the embassy contacts them directly.

Please how true is this?

well you can send your statement to the embassy directly that’s called “my bank statement “
But it’s mainly used for Canadian visas But still print out your BS / likewise you can send it to them if you feel like it

Good day bro, I think I love your reply to the “ why US and not Nigeria”
But bro, I’m sure you’d need to explain more and more, because that’s too short. Like, you can also have that said international experience in another country which is not US, like Canada, UK and co.

After or before that your answer up there, why not add HOW USA IS THE HOME OF TECH, which is like the best bet for you. We’ve head1/4s of top tech companies (MicroSoft, Apple, Intel etc) there which might and definitely make intern and research easy for you unlike you schooling and offering the said course in any other country or your country.

Just try make research on that and use your own words to add up on your propose transcript.

Luck!


Thank you so much

I was offered full funding for a master's degree program in the USA, Illinois to be precise. The graduate school sent the contract, it has $1000 monthly stipend and all tuition waived, and I was asked to sign it and send the hard copy back to them. I am not to scan it or send it via a email. I am intending to send it to them via FedEx. I am asking if that is the way it is done, because I was wondering why I couldn't sign it and just scan it back.

I will be requesting my I-20, can I ask them to send it via email or I need to receive it via courier? I don't want any stories when I go for my interview with the VO if I present a printed on sent by email. Kindly advise me on that.

Also, what is the current price for SEVIS fees and Visa fees so I can prepare to be at the embassy. And if I start the processing what is the appointment timeline, hope I can get an appointment soon a I will be resuming in Fall.

And I don't mind connecting with would be students of the same institution going there this Fall 2021 who are Nigerians. The school is Eastern Illinois University. Thanks

Who got admission for Missouri state university?
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by ChinmaRoxy(f): 8:37pm On Mar 25, 2021
Stevenssen:

I really appreciate!!! I will do as you advised.
Thanks.

Try changing sim cards. I think this problem occurs often on one of these : Mtn or Airtel. If you're using Mtn, switch to Airtel and vise versa.

If none of that works, download a vpn app from your app store. Look for any free vpn, there are lots. Launch the VPN and set it to a country eg US or UK or Germany.

Go back to your ds form. If the first step doesn't work for you, the second step will easily solve the problem.

All the best.

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by easycare77: 9:46pm On Mar 25, 2021
I think if they asked you to send a hard copy of the signed offer, you should. You may not get i20 until the form is probably received by them.

Some schools don't mail i20 and if they are one of them, they would send it to you using courier which you should get in days.

Sevis is $350. Visa fee as at last week was #67200.

Appointment date starts from 2022 January and starts coming down as days of your resumption draws near or as the embassy opens dates.

You should be Interviewed before your resumption date though. The emergency route too is available.

If you ask me, get your i20 first as you can't do Visa registration without it.

Multiple reasons for your general benefits. Stay away from Midwest and far north. Look at public schools in texas, maryland, florida, georgia.

Congrats, that's a very good offer. I think you can use the "fill & sign" tool on Adobe to electronically sign the offer letter, and email to them without having to print it. That should work unless they insisted on mailing the hard copy.

Congratulations! Which course were you given GA? I also have an admission offer in the MBA program of the same school.

It is better for you to comply with the instruction. What you have is a gold and you have to look at the bigger picture rather than focusing on the amount to courier it to the US. Some schools still send e-copies of the I-20 while others courier it to the students.
