Pls guys, what's the current wait time to get an interview date for US visit visa application in Lagos embassy

Hi guys. Landed seniors, please which of the elementary schools is preferable. Public schools, catholic schools, french immersion schools or the traditional learning centers (TLC's). Pros and cons of each would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi house, a friend is trying to raise a webform for withdrawal of a visiting application coz the study permit of the wife who is the primary applicant got denied but his own application is still pending. How does he answer to the question

'Is your application being processed by an office OUTSIDE Canada?'

How to know which office is processing the application?

Then should he put his own details as the applicant or the details of the wife who is the primary applicant.

Thanks in advance.

Hi house, pls if someone arrives late for his vfs biometrics appointment in Lagos, can the person still be attended to same day or he has to reschedule?

Hi house, in light of the recent happenings I Lagos, is the biometrics center in Lagos still honouring previously scheduled appointments? I want to know if an appointment booked for this week will still hold

Hi guys. Still need more input this. Thanks

Hi house, is biometrics on hold again in Lagos or something? Tried booking an appointment online but no available dates showing again for the rest of the year?

Thanks for your response. A study permit application has been submitted already and a request for biometrics letter sent. What I want to know is if I can still hold off on going for the biometrics till I get a medical request so I can do the 2 at d same time

I am a Winter 2021 applicant too. I did medicals upfront (before submitting my application) and also booked bio-metric appointment before I got the request. Although I am based in Lagos, I have had some Gurus here guide me of course and they still do. Thanks @ honorable Frankrobbn1 and Oga Fratermathy. I hail you both!

So if you are not based in Lagos/Abuja but have a friend/relative there who can accommodate you for 1 week, here is my suggestion:
Book biometric appointment NOW. You probably won't get any date earlier than October at this rate and time.
Then start a myCIC profile and get all application materials ready (scanned, sized etc).
Book your medicals in advance to come up a week before your biometric appointment.
Travel to either city to do medicals hoping there is no follow-up tests/investigations.
Use e-statement for proof of funds so you can get the pdf wherever you are submitting from.
Submit SP application while you are still in the city after panel physician confirm your medical exam has been submitted to IRCC (2/3 days).
You should get a biometric request letter same or next day and you will be able to complete that before you return to base since you had an appointment in advance (remember?).

Caveat: there are a lot of assumptions that went into the above proposition, so ensure you do your own research to be sure these can work for you.

Hi all. On the issue of this new 2 stage application process, for a 2021 January applicant, can the applicant wait until the first stage is approved & medical requested before doing biometrics? In order words, would the application still be in progress without supplying the biometrics initially coz the applicant wants to book for both medicals & biometrics together in a single trip.

Hi house. Quick question, is it necessary to change a document by document Wes report used for EE to a course by course report for study purpose.Though admission has been obtained from a college already but is it necessary to do it to strengthen the study visa application? Thanks

Thanks for the response. Did u declare upfront in your student visa application if you had a pending immigration or not?

Amigo101:
Tried once. Everything checked out but they didnt issue me a student visa.

Good day all, was wondering if anyone with pending F4 petition is able to successfully get a student visa approved. Anyone with this experience, pls share.

Good day house. I'd like to please clarify on this issue of discount. What I have on my hospital bill is 'self pay, no insurance system adjusted' . From $28,503 my bill was adjusted to $7,038 which I paid for C/S delivery in 2018. Is this the same as discount & if it is, does it mean I'll have to pay the adjusted value of $21,000+ before considering visa renewal? Kindly advise.

Good day house, biko still awaiting any response/input on this pls. Thanks

Please, what should be necessary preparations before next EE draw?

I just sent you a mail. Pls respond

Ladykeigh:
Oh...I see.


I'm writing too oh. Just joined the class yesterday. I am not aware of any tutorial group asides the WhatsApp class we had yesterday. Learnt we'll be having the next class on Zoom, more like a webinar. I think a lot of the prep work rests with the candidate since it's a virtual class. May God help us.

Did you apply for F1 in Nigeria?

No she did not, asking for my sister. She left with a B1/B2 visiting visa. But got an admission into a school upon getting there & got her status changed to student visa & is now hoping to apply for a F1 dependency visa for her child. Want to know if anyone has gone through this route b4 and if its feasible.

Morning all, a lot of useful information going on here. I would like to ask if anyone got a U.S visa here & successfully got a student stay when he/she got to U.S by enrolling in a school. If yes, how feasible is to apply for a child dependency F1/F2 with it. Thanks in advance

Morning elders. Iv read posts of some people who have successfully added a family member through adoption. My question is this. How long can d adoption process take, the costs & any good contact that can handle the processing as fast as possible. Thanks.
