Lilbaby23:
Pls has your fiancé gotten date yet?. I don't want to use the Emergency Request because i have never been approved before. It so sad. A particular form was made useless as i exhausted the Er and couldn’t reschedule. I bought a new form last week and i have been unable to get closer dates. Was denied in August and school resumes in January 6th.


Pls can you share me a format of what you wrote as your reason for travelling . Maybe I’m doing something wrong�

Timotte:
No! You'll need to also attach your SEVIS fee payment receipt.

itoski:
Please I want to confirm if there was a certain remark pm your I-20 because it was stated in mine I have to complete the Prerequisite courses then another I-20 will be issued.

Sun1shyne:
When did you apply please?

ObodoNaija:
He doesn't need to open another account. He should use his current CGI account and edit his DS160 cus he will be filling a new one. He will not see the reschedule button today until tomorrow.

godguy:
you have to pay another visa fee and look out for closer date

habeeb246:
congratulations, who's sponsoring your fiancé??

godguy:
there are some wassap group that are doing date checking, get added to any of them and be involved in date checking, you will get a date, but its takes committement.

Vahn:
you can be approved, thats not a shortcoming or red flag. Just be brave, then pray

Nwannediutor:
Can you at least post your transcript to help others first?? That should be the first thing.

Bekindtoo:
Thank God oooooo.

Honestly, nothing would have been done without the passport. And to get a new one between now and Friday is nearly impossible, looking at the situation at the passport office.

Congratulations to him in advance.

Anavamii:
Hello guys please I need urgent help on this issue.
My fiancé has his visa appointment in Abuja this Friday. He has submitted al his documents including his Ds-160 but the person with his passport just said she can’t find it!!!

Please what’s the way forward.
I know he can get a new passport in 24 hours but on the CGI place, there’s no way he can change his passport number!!!

PLEASE HELP!!!

Vahn:

Fast forward to this morning.
After dressing up, I came outside and took a bolt ride to diplomatic drive. I got there around 6:45am. The hustlers at the gate chop me small today, because I forgot to print out my late arrival authorization letter given to me by my Graduate Coordinator, so I printed just a page #3,000.
I also needed to keep my phone as phone's ain't allowed inside the embassy, I was also charged #1,500.
Then, we proceeded to the que for documentation and all.

Now, the interview proper.
I was interviewed by a while man in his mid 40s

V.O: Pass me your passport and i20 please

V.O : Your left four fingers, right fingers and tumbs please.

V·o: Good, What's your highest qualification ?

V.O: What's your role there? (While asking all these questions, he was looking into his PC and typing for very long time before asking the next question )

Me: I work as a field engineer.(I explained my duties)

V.O :What will you do after this program ?

Me: After completing this program, I'll come back to my job to occupy a higher position. (As I was saying it, he had stopped typing and now was looking at my face, me too was looking straight to his eyes, eyeball to eyeball)

V.O: Okay, good good (gesculating with his hands, I wan laugh here )

V.O: How did you here about this school and how many school did you apply to?

Me: I searched through Google.com, and I applied to 2 schools; Bowling green state university and Morgan State University. So I went for MSU since I got a full scholarship there.

Me: Yes, I commenced with them since August 23rd, and I have a late arrival authorization letter issued by my Graduate Coordinator here with me. (me bringing it out)

V.O: Okay, that's good. Now I can see all is set and good.

Me: Smilling sheepishly . . .
