sha_money: My people abeg dis SEVIS people wan break my heart oo, I don call dem and email dem tire. De received d payment on friday meanwhile I sent d payment since wednesday last week. Pls how long does it take to process d reciept after d money has been picked by dem. Dat is dey picked d money on friday,wen should I expect d reciept online? Its still sayin record not found.
HELP abeg house
Relax sha_money! Normally it should take around 2 working days for confirmation of data to happen..but may take a bit longer for some processings to be done due to possible discrepancies in the data supplied and in a bid to make them right,time is being consumed..However,call them today in the evening (around 5pm or 6pm)after checking you online status.... to be sure nothing was wrong with the payment or the info sent to them. They will then hint you on the latest development..I trust all will be fine.When is your interview?

Ok..but when is your new I-20 gonna arrive? Has the school issues another one? I hope you know you need the hard copy at the interview and not just the scanned copy.

I have a university i-20 with me . Tution is 25k .

What I wud advice is make ur case strong enough. This VO want to give u, because when u realise this for a true, it will really help ur mindset. Can u imagine some1 dat is yet to go for his interview sounding so pessimistic already? I can assure such a person is bound to b rejected. Know ur course structure, men sound like a geek when talking to dat VO, tell am say u sabi book and america system needs u(I don't expect u to utter d later formally). Be CONFIDENT.. I can't over exaggerate this part. But guy be a gingered entity(I knw if person way see this word, go knw say na me,hope am nt blowing my cover sha). And even dress Geeky, I intentionally dressed geeky and smart during my interview(abeg no tell me 2 explain dis part oh grin ). Well some people may not want to go with me on dis one, but man ,ur VO has a lot to do with you getting a visa, dis one tin I wud advice, put God first( no dey do bad tin kan expect God to over look),come out open to him, yes ur mind go dey tell u Say na when u need sth u dey call God, but u still better pass some people way no call God at all- this is wat made david in d bible stand out.

To sum it up.. Have a positive mindset. Look at d mirror each day tell d image dat u ll get dis. And trust me, no jupiter can stop u.

Wish u best. wink

ABUJA AND LAGOS WHICH ONE IS GIVING VISA? BECAUSE I WAS DENIED IN ABUJA THIS JULY AND I WANT TO GO IN OCTOBER - NOVEMBER, WHAT WILL U ADVICE ME?[/quote

Guy, my advice is make ur case strong. Have not been to abuja consular b4, so i don't ve any idea wh is better. Lagos also reject a bulk number of people too, but once ur case is strong u ve a grt chance and when u land a good VO ur chances re greater. It all boils down to YOU.

Thanks baba

I finished 03 .
Gone for associate Degree intrview 2twice ,. Am 24 refused on d basis of waec cert coz I mispalced it ,second time told me y didn't I apply to university. Rite now I have Oracle assoiciate cert, desktop publish cert as well . I just want to back the working aspect up wiith working as an IT administrator at the regional HQ of my church.

Alright, can u still answer the following questions;
1. Have you gotten the WAEC certificate that caused the first refusal.
2. Have you applied to University that caused the second refusal.
3. How many schools gave you admission now? Cos, The VO will see you as a serious guy going there with 2/3 admission letters being refused because of this before.
3. Did you write SAT & Toefl?
4. You have not told us your major. This will help to know how to fill the gaps.
5. What's your financial stand? father/mother/family?
2003 - 2012 (9years).not small o but Calm bro, God is able.

You new guys shouldn't pack dry akpanla and garri while coming to US ooo. If caught at entry, your stuffs would be seized, trashed and you pay fine. If you need garri (nice one ooo), ground egusi, palm oil, ogbonor, tinko, okra (americans dey fry their own eat like fried fish) etc dem dey sell them fine fine in US. You fit no see ponmo but good shaki dey for Walmart and other stores. Moreover, US is home of different kinda food, you go eat and eat till you can't no more.....That's if your intention is real and you are on good standing ooo. But if not and you go astray like noise from a big speaker, you go.... well, you know how person wey struggle reach lagos dey face am nau.

Hello Guys,

I am completing the DS-160 form and on the section for Travel, what do I answer in the question for "Who is Paying for your trip?"

Urgent response please.

Thank you.

If your Aunt is gonna take care of all expenses inclusive of your flight, then her name should be there..In short...put the name of your sponsor there,even if someone else is paying for your flight so that there wont be discrepancies in your info.

Try to be reasonably consistent with what you filled in your past DS160. Get a WAEC scratch card handy this time around and make sure you package yourself well. Have a copy or printout of the result of any exams you have taken (TOEFL, SAT). If you haven't taken any exam, if possible try to get a letter or an email from your school indicating that you were exempted from the exams. I hope this is helpful

Thanks Phy

I will get all this documents , but my fear is that , the ages I filled is for my parent is not consistent but other things are , just the ages . Both dad and Mum and its coz I didn't ask them . How does that affect my application .


How about my answer to Why am just goin for underGrduate.

@emmal

If it is only one student dey will grant in abj ithen that will be me . I can't be intimidated by dis VO anymore.

Brov..just hold the birth certificate you have with you as long as it states your real age..Who said they ask for birth certificates during f1 visa interviews sef? Your international passport suffices for all biodata needed. As for your second question...I think it will be very helpful if you include your sponsor's tax clearance cos the VO might wanna verify if your sponsor is performing his or her civil duties.So please ask your sponsor to give the tax clearance docs to you.
