Gernot Rohr will return to Nigeria on Monday.
Expect his squad list to be out anytime from next week, although he will meet with the NFF Technical Committee first then visit the CHAN team camp in Kano.

Is your friend your relative?

sihamey:
Please guru in the house im a bit confused here, if ask on D160 Application form : do you have relative in USA?

I know a friend i the State but No Relatives as in family relatives, should i answer yes or No to this question?

Your kinded advice will be appreciated, Note : No one is an Island of knowledge i'm here to learn.

Thanks

I agree with you. Emenike has retired and we really are not short in the striker department.
On current form, Odion Ighalo has 6 goals from 4 games all scored in July and is looking back to his old self.
If we need one retired player to unretire, that would be Vincent Enyeama.

junnyjake:
I'd have ighalo start in his place and iheanacho as well.

FIFA have scrapped the Licensed Agents regulations.
Instead, what they have now are Intermediaries.
Depending on where you are, you will need to be registered by your national federation and fulfill certain requirements to be registered.
If you are in Nigeria, contact Nasiru Jubril at the NFF HQ at Zone 7 in Abuja

smithsydny:
Please how do I go about been a licensed agent?

Any ideas plz

In any case, even if you end up missing your flight, they'll put you on another one

Ddarkguy:
Ok. Thank you guys.

24 HOURS DRIVE??!!
You're kidding, right?
That's like going from one ned of the country to the other and crossing multiple state lines. I have done that drive like 3 times with my family and only because madam and I were alternating the driving. Still, it was a hard grind.
I wouldn't advise it. And if I were the VO, I would look real suspicious at you. Where will you now stay when you get to the museum after a 24-hour drive?
And why didn't you just stay there in the first place? Unless you plan to get in a vehicle, drive 24 hours, visit a museum for a few hours, then drive another 24 hours back.
Better advise yourself o

Habisoye:
May God bless you in abundance @LadyGuinivere for giving me urgent attention.

Please i will like to ask this too;

Am correcting my Ds-160 Form now online, please the hotel i choose is like 24hrs drive to the museum am visiting (different state), does this really matters in any way, will this not hinder my interview success in any way?

or should i choose another hotel closer to my Museum (tourist centre) now sharp sharp. (i just like that hotel sha(Ashland hills hotel and suites).

Please kindly advise me as am doing corrections on the form already.

You dey fear?
Confess now o

seyewest:
hnmmmm really okay now.. hope it's for something good.

Nobody needs to invite anybody. And nobody will give you an chances.
Read through this thread from page 1 or ask her to read the thread herself

luckyef:

I figured

I think I have seen you on my TL somewhere

seyewest:
yup

Just download movies and/or series from Netflix on your phone

seyewest:
Na boredom go kill person and I'm sure the airport will be boring as anything.

That layover time! Damn!

Seg05:
@seyewest ,pls find breakdown below. Thanks

The only issue, apart from in-flight service which I don't know about, would be having check in your tablets and laptops

Seg05:
Thanks seyewest but my concerns is US POE. Egypt is an Islamic country, hope they won't be asking many questions. Am travelling with my family seen less than $100 from newyork to Colorado.I will have the ticket with me.

Just curious, is this the same handle you use on your social media?

seyewest:
Go through the last 3-4 pages you will see the solution there.

Report at the police station, get new passports done.

But I think you folks will have to go trough the visa process again. I'm not exactly sure so go to the VO thread and ask them there

callondaddy:
Very sad and pathetic story but you have nothing to worry about. Just go to the nearest police station report to the police and get a report and go and start working on getting a new passport then after that you can go back and get your visa back. It's a gradual process but I'm so sure you will get it back. Someone has a similar Case last year.

This is just disgraceful. And to think people fall for this rubbish

As long as you plan for her to return, might as well buy Hera return ticket and save yourself the trouble.
First of all, the return ticket is cheaper, and if you buy a flexible ticket, you can actually make a free date change.
Second, it invites less scrutiny.
I flew on a one-way ticket recently, and I was just vexing for myself.

HisSon24:
Hello! Wonderful people. Plesse I need your experience on this, I am going to the US on F1visa with grandma on B1B2. I know it's no p for me to buy one way ticket. Can I get one way ticket for grandma too as we don't want her to travel alone. We are Planing she returns with any of our friends coming home for Christmas then we Will get another ticket that will tally with that of any of friend coming home. Please will one way ticket be an issue for my grandma at the port of entry..... Thanks for your response in advance

Let me join you and laugh in Ogoni

nefertitiram:
I'm laughing in Spanish

I thought you said before that getting a visa was not a problem?

Okebarn:
thanks for your reply.
I'm actually new to the system, i've got someone over there through my in-laws
pls do you know the time it will take to procure a visa and the cost?
Secondly, i see people mentioning 6months, i was told from my sis that the person am to travel to was given two years, i dont understand, though the person works there.
Thanks in anticipation

There is an allowance for alcohol
Just check to be sure

amuwo1980:
Good evening all, your pieces of advice could be helpful here,

No 1: can i go with some bottles of alcoholic drinks in my checkered in-luggage{2 bottles of mumm champagne and a bottle of chivas wiskey) will it be a contraband issue?

No 2: can i go with my prescribed medicine e.g Viagra, though i cant find the Dr prescription.

Thanks

Or just simply take an Uber or Lyft?

nefertitiram:
Not at all. Take nycairporter shuttle for $16

She be careful with these cheap tickets o. Restrictions plenty
If you miss your flight, Sahara.
And you still have to pay $25 or so per baggage.
Still, you should thank Seyewest for helping you get it.

valeria:
Thanks a lot. Please send me a link with airline details. I do not mind booking it today. Cheapest i have ever seen is $280 per passenger.

God bless you!

If you need to, just go to the airport ad go to their office there.

As long as your layover is over eight hours, you are entitled to accommodation

Or you can ask when you get there for your check in

iCool:
I have called the QatarAir Nigerian office twice.

Kept on hold for 5mins, no show. Second call, it rang for over a minute and no one picked.

The earlier you book, the cheaper the flights bro.
And NY to Miami is quite a distance.
My advice to you would have been to book your flight to DC or Atlanta instead, then rent a car and drive to Miami.
That would save you a ton of cash and also give your family a chance to take in the scenery.
You can even spend the night at hotels along the way if you like

valeria:
Thanks to everyone for your immense help and responses.

We (spouse, kid and I) will be travelling to the U.S next month and it's our first visit to America.

Our application stated Miami as destination but tickets are so expensive this summer that we decided to book a flight to New York and intend to get a domestic flight from JFK to Miami the following morning. We have booked a night stay at a hotel close to JFK and another 14 nights stay at the Miami hotel.

I am a bit worried now because we have a contact in New York (also stated in our application) and it may sound like we are changing our destination because we have someone in New York to accommodate us.

The domestic flights seen online are costly and we hope to get cheaper options when we go to the local airport the following day.

Is there something we should be worried about?

Thanks in anticipation

As it is, your passport has six months validity and if you are only spending two weeks, that is good enough.
However, if I were you, I would go renew the passport. It shouldn't take more than a day or two

shopapa1:
hello house, first I want to commend d good job everyone is doing here. Now my question is that my passport will expire in February 2018 and my visa January 2018. I plan to travel july 29,to spend 2 weeks and someone told me that its essential that my passport has full 6 months validity to have a smooth entry into d usa. His advise is that I renew my passport before coming to the usa. House pls I need advise on this.

As long as he returns within the 6 months he was stamped in for, he should be fine.
But if he were to return within another few weeks, I'm sure it will invite scrutiny. Is it that he does not have a job in Nigeria? Why is he spending over months away from home?

Stanley897:
My uncle got his b1/b2 visa last year . He traveled to the United States this year February and has been in the U.S. For over 5 months ( NB: he was given 6 months @ POE.) . He's planning to leave the U.S. before the 6 month expires this month . Now my question : do you think staying as long as 5 months plus ( almost 6 months ) would affect his next entry into the U.S. ? Thanks

POE is Abu Dhabi. There's a CBP post there. After that, you're essentially on a US domestic flight

kunzo:
Lay over is abu Dhabi and POE is JFK.

You're welcome.
Btw, be sure to pay your $165 ELIS fee before you leave for the USA. It will make the processing of your green card faster.
If you pay after you arrive, your green card might take longer to arrive.
And be sure to go to Social Security office to apply for your SSN.
The quicker you get all these sorted, the quicker you can start your new life.
Have fun, bro

Astonestone:
Hahahaha ok
Thanks a lot
Yes o I already planned to pack some food
But won't be packing much as per strict diet.
Thanks for all the info. I'm grateful

Let him file for an Immigrant Visa for you first, and include a K3 visa
That allows you to go quicker

wendykaay:
Hi goodday first time poster,got married last year to my husband who is an American citizen so I want to apply for a visiting visa to see him is there's any chance of getting it.please I need answers if there's a possibility of getting visiting visa to see my husband.thanks

A family appointment is always best

komenology:
Hi Everyone, i will be filling the DS 160 form for my brother and his wife, as they have plans of visiting America in few months from now. My question is, should i book an individual appointments for them both? or a family appointment? Please note they are not traveling with their children. Kindly advise.... Thank you.

Then your mother-in-law will need to be making good money.
We are talking about a family of 7 (the mother in law included). If the man she is living with is included, that would make it a family of 8,
so she would need to be making $46,425 (or $51,650 if the man she is staying with is included)
That is not too much money, but be sure she can cover it first

Adogbejiomoefe:
Okay my baby mama has 3 kids mine making it four and they all leave alone. But my mother inlaw stays with a man.

I didn't know you loved me like this o
*picks race*

nefertitiram:
She can come without the baby and marry you here then go back and start paperwork.

I don't understand how two people will be in love and you don't want to go to his country even if it just to see his face when every evening I'm outside the gate waiting for my lover to return from work.

If he travels just for one night I will not be able to sleep till he comes back. Forgive me, I don't understand how long distance works
