I cancelled my Lagos appointment and EA request today so I can switch to Abuja. I was able to use the same MRV fee and still saw the Emergency appointment tab on the CGI portal after updating my profile with a new DS160. However, After submitting another EA request to Abuja, I noticed that the EA tab is now gone on the portal. Did anyone experience this?
It did show that my application is now under review after submitting but just wondering why the EA tab is now gone.
For those that switched to Abuja recently, did you also observe this?
Thanks

I'm in a similar boat as you. They will most likely consider it but is it such a horrible thing to have a support system where you want to study?

Let them see your seriousness and real intention for pursuing the degree. Don't forget to put them in your DS160 when asked if you know anyone in the US especially if they are sponsoring your degree.

Personally I have gotten a B1/B2 visa approved a few years ago with this a similar scenario and now I'm applying for a student visa ��

Speak your truth and leave the rest to God. All the best to us.
yeah I put it on my ds160 and I’m not planning on telling lies. Like you said, I will say my truth and let God handle the rest

Please I need help with likely F2 Child (above 14 years) interview questions from the VO. Help me because I don't want my child to be caught unawares leading to sloppy response.

Please help, the interview is close!

Hi guys, please I need your inputs.

I have an I-20 for a university but I’m waiting for that of another university because it’s my most preferred uni. I have filled my DS160 form (not submitted) with the available I20 and have proceeded to fill the visa form. I intend changing the info on my ds160 after receiving the new I20 and before my interview date. My question is, do I need to change the info on the visa form as well? Can the info on the visa form be changed after submission?

Thanks in advance for your response.

I want to apply for an F2 visa for my baby (less than 5years). Do they conduct interviews for minors?

What is the procedure for getting an F2 visa for a minor after application?

It must be in Abuja definitely. They have a center for super priority passport application. The fee could be as high as 90 thousand naira.

Hmmm this is long for a 2/3mins interview but anyways.
1. You don't need a Nursing degree to attend a medical school because Nursing students do not get to do all Medical School prerequisites so for you to now come and say you are going for Nursing because you are planning on attending a Med school doesn't add.
2. There's biology premed concentration. I'm stating all these so that you will get your facts right.
3. You really need to check teacher to Students ratio of HBCUs institution before you make a stand on flexibility and diversity o. It's important
4. No comment on the disorder but you really need to get your facts right. I'm really hoping it's not a lamba anyways.
5. To save stress, CC is a red flag. That institution was specifically made for some benefits. And I'm guessing that part of med school has a solid reason with financial backup.
6. Applying to a university with Biology pre-med would have made a whole lot of sense


Best of luck

Okay. Was international passport not requested when you were filling application?
Anyways, August is still 3 months away so anything can happen. Document: visa appointment, ds160 confirmation, visa receipt, int. Passport, i-20 all other supporting documents

Best of luck
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by horkami: 10:55am On Apr 25, 2022
it wasnt requested during application.

Aside statement of account by my employer, what else should they provide?

Good day UmmZayd, I'll like to ask you how I answer the question "how much does your sponsor earn?".
Now this sponsor is a business man and has numerous businesses, but we aren't particularly close, so I'm not privy to this information. I know you would ask me to ask him, but let's assume he wasn't comfortable telling me about his earnings.

Good day, I've been reading transcripts, and I came across yours from last year. I would like you to ask you, for a program whose cost of attendance is 27k per year, what is the LEAST monthly income a sponsor is required to earn that might make the consul view him as a capable sponsor. Also, would a 30million naira account balance be just enough for a bank statement?
NigPatriot:


Thank you for sharing your transcript. I'm certain many lessons can be learnt from there.

Your case scenario, you were nervous. Did you undergo any mock interview before your interview date?.

Also, if you have another school with a lesser COA then you can switch when reapplying and back it up with a cogent reason. If you want to stick with stevens and You say you have the money to pay the fees without funding, but convincing the VO that you do, is something you have to go back to the drawing board to figure how?.

N.B: as someone singlehandedly pointed, you raised a claim that it's almost impossible to get visa without funding. It's ironic you also fall in that category, I can imagine how that thought process must have rigmaroled your mindset.

You can get your passport within a week if you know someone at the immigration to pay some extra. If you don't, you may have to wait forever and you need your passport to fill most of the forms for your visa application. So my candid advice is go to there office and find out someone that would help you to expedite it and pay the extra. Good-luck

Good morning everyone.

Please, I need your input on this.
My appointment is next month.
I was supposed to resume on the 4th of this month but I couldn’t secure an appointment date on time.
I requested for a new i-20 from the school for summer resumption since my programmes is open for it but I don’t know how soon the school will reply.
Do I proceed with the interview if the school doesn’t reply me before then and go with the old I-20? Please, what do you suggest I tell the VO or what do you think I should do?

Thank you as you reply.

27k should be around 14-15 million using embassy conversion rate to naira. So 30 million naira should be fine.
As for the stipulated expected monthly income. There is no fixed amount for that. The aim is for you to be able to demonstrate that your sponsor is either into business or a paid salary and has a statement of account where there is sufficient and regular cash flow.

Thank you as you reply.

To be honest with you, once the VO sees your i20 and realizes that your expected date of resumption has passed and you have no letter from the school to attest that you are to resume for a post-date, that will be an easy denial from the VO. (Read up immigration rules).

Your best bet would be to follow up rigorously with your school to ensure they are swift in approving your new i20. So you don't waste effort and time just to get a denial at the end of the day.
