GUUYYYYSSSS ABUJA JUST NOW!!!!!!!!

Please, are you EA applicant before you see this date or regular date for first timer or regular date for re-trial ??

Your answer or response will help those that are in these categories to determine what they will be looking out for.

Thank you as we await your response.

thank you for sharing your thought,
i mentioned 30 staffs cos that's the number of the total staffs we have in the firm which does not include lawyers alone and currently we have 15 lawyers as supposed the 10 lawyers on the website with 15 non lawyers.
Also, I mentioned entertainment law becos its under intellectual property law or they are regarded as same and I did not intend to complicate things up that's why I was more specific since entertainment law is what i am going for in the University.

going foward i intend to explain this differences in my next ds-160 and i will be applying back to abuja or what do you think ? i have also sent a mail to you.


thank you.

So many “wrongs” in this transcript. You were close to getting this visa, why did you blow it?

Why say your law area is entertainment when you could have said intellectual property law.

She checked online to confirm this Law Firm only has 10 employees. Why did you say 30 employees, when the website says 10?

Embassy today at Abuja on the 30th, August. 2021.
Status: denied
Sponsor: employer

Please everyone I need your guidance.

I believe I am a step closer to reaching this goal.
I won’t give up and by God’s grace it end in praise.

Transcript:
VO: I can see you are going for your LL.M in University Of Miami.
Me: yes
Vo: what will you be doing after ?
Me: I will be coming back to occupy the position of senior associate while
I will be implementing the knowledge I have acquired with my expectation from Law firm to impact the knowledge in the junior associate in my employer’s law firm.

Vo: when did you start working
Me: for 3 years

VO: what do you as a Lawyer
Ans: I actively practice as lawyer specializing in entertainment, art and sport law.
(The area of law is a segment of Intellectual property law(IPL) which is what is stated in my office website.

Vo: your law firm is in Vi ??
Ans: yes

Vo: how many staffs do you have?
Ans: 30
(Meanwhile I checked my law firm’s website and discovered that it was 10 lawyers that was stated in the website)

Vo: will your office pay for your trips( this question, I wasn’t sure of what she asked my head told me it was about salary and said yes my office will pay my salary by 20%) my ds-160 clearly stated that my law firm will not pay for mg Trip.

VO: what year did you start working with the law firm ?
Ans: 2019 but I have had my internship program with the law firm before 2019

Vo: you won’t be given visa this time you can try again.

Now another problem I realized that there was an error on my appointment page for interview which is okay that my confirmation number on the appointment page is different from what I have in my DS-160, what was reflecting on my appointment page for my interview was b2 ds-160 confirmation number which I used in applying in 2019 for a family event in USA with my siblings and was denied. On my confirmation for interview it was this DS-160 old number that was on it which I discovered yesterday night. (The reason there was a mixed up was because I transferred my email account on the CGI three times becos I didn’t get a response when I made the application via email and later sorted for website application which was granted later via mail which approved it back to a different mail then I called the call center and it was permanently sorted out)

However, upon my denial I paid for a new MRV and I checked my profile update I was surprised to see my old b2/b1 visa confirmation reflecting Ds-160 number on my cgi profile instead of my Ds-160 for F-1 visa.

The questions are:
1. where did I go wrong in my interview?
2. What impact would the error on my CGI make?? Perhaps it didn’t show my required information.
3. Upon my new application should I pick Lagos or Abuja considering my circumstance ?

Good Day
Pls I need your help oo
I Finally got a date for my interview through a lady
But in my I-20 my program start August 10 2021 and my class start 23 of August 2021
But I got 11th of August 2021 for my interview at the us embassy
I want to know if it's okay to go for the interview

please link me up with the Lady.

Good Morning everyone,
For those of us waiting on Emergency approval and date: I noticed a routine Embassy has used in approving dates for fall applicants recently which is that, Applicant that got date are those that made a new Visa fee payment and applied for emergency with the new MRV. This is just my observation I might be wrong. Also, we should consider to send the US consulate mails just like someone advised here.

I believe those of us that are expecting our Application to be approved to create a whatsapp group so that we can join to drop hints and information, this is to enable us stay informed.

Thank you.
