Good evening everyone

I recently got admitted to study MSc Construction Engineering and Management for Fall 2022 semester. My COA is 53k, no funding at the moment but I was able to secure Mpower loan of 50k and planning to use my Dad as sponsor to cover the balance of 3k. I will be applying for visa as soon as possible and I will like to have an idea of the questions I can expecting and the best way to tackle them. Also, please anyone who has applied with Mpower loan, kindly share your experience. Thanks

Same shoe with you..

Did you check the passport size and illumination level. Your passport should be well illuminated and with the embassy standard size.

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

It is good to ask here but you can also call the US embassy for clarification. Best!

So to my knowledge, when the VO asks "why you chose this university" most people think its about stating facts about the school is the answer lol, that can be gotten from the internet , you gotta look for something that actually makes sense, for instance you said its "cheap enough for you", that right there is good enough. Stating google fact doesnt necessary give a personal reason why that uni. for instance you can even go ahead and say oh I choose this school
cos its cheap and I also heard it snows in that area during the winter and im really excited to see the snow as I have never experienced it before (my statement is just to make it more personalized to you) you dnt necessary have to state facts about the school that u read on the website. just my opinion

Hi Guys,

Please I'm getting sponsorship from my dad's friend company (he owns the company and ready to support with the COA and even ready to issue a letter of support). What are my chances of getting my visa approved without any query?

And again, for how long must the supporting funds be in an account, to be accepted by the VO as palatable?
No time period? just few days? or a month?

Thanks in advance.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by ny11: 3:00am On Apr 27, 2022
yes. May 17th was the first available date I chose. I was able to choose an earlier date of May 5th a few days later. You need to choose what’s immediately available and keep trying for a better date before the EA approval expires.
amojoawo:
My EA request got approved today after switching to Abuja from Lagos (after waiting a month with no response from Lagos) with the same MRV fee. Please if I pick the earliest available date, would I be able to reschedule if another earlier date shows up? Please does anybody know if an earlier date would even show up?

Pay for your mrv fee at gtbank ; then proceed to register for a new visa account from the official us embassy Nigeria site ; they’d link you to a site where you’d apply for a visa; fill all the requested details and schedule an interview date

How do i go about it please?




If you use Crypto here, you can easily convert the cash you want to send by buying Crypto via P2P on any reliable platform e.g Binance.

You send to the receiver's address, they can decide to withdraw to bank if the State they stay allows Crypto transactions or they could p2p too.

If you don't know how it works just forget about it before you'll lose the money.
