Big thanks for dz. You are actually right there's no problem with it at POE,for it is stated that i only need ti have a passport valid till the end of my intended stay. the only issue is with the airline. Infact, i had a chat with them and i was told if the validity isnt beyond 6month, i won't be allowed to board...
B

Pls house i have a question.
I just realized that my passport will be expiring in 5month 2weeks to my intended travelling date.... I have my visa already though. Pls do you all knoe if the airline would take me, or i should try and renew my passport first. Was told express passpt would take a week to be ready in abeokuta. ...
N:B, will be spending just 2weeks in US...
Am i to go ahead for the renewal. Or i can still make it with my current passport status

Hi everyone, i was approved laat week wed, but when i tried tracking, i was told my passport is still with the US consulate etc.... Pls how lomg does it take for passports to be returned.... The vo told me then that it will take up to a week. But it was actually one week 2days ago... Has anyone experienced this??

darkmax:
My F1 visa was refused this March...i wish to go and spend the holiday in the US this December..can this work?

Well,quick questions, why are are you going for holiday??
What do you do presently??
Have you been anywhere outside Nigeria aside ghana and togo, for holiday before??
Pls will like u to self evaluate yourself, u can go elsewhere for holiday, paris, Morocco etc... But first, get yourself into a school, that should be ur priority if truly ur intentions are sincere.
Personally,if i were the vo, might not approve u, why?? U came less than a year for F1, U were refused, no changes in ur circumstances, yet u wanna go for vacation to the states.. Why are u going for vacation to fhe states sef??
Pls dnt waste ur money, go elsewhere for vacation for this year if it's necessary, then if u still wanna school in US, go for F1 again, but if u lucky enough to get into a school in NIGERIA, good, go for it, then u can go for vacation in the US following year....
All the best dear

Nwanne congrats.
But let other students different o! This is a rich kid . With travel history. Before one person with suffer head like like me go dey final dey use this transcript to carry hope.
Happy travels Mr Gulliver

Lol, I'm not rich oo, just average Nigerian, doing okay.
U re right about the travel history, ad i think my dad travel history helped too. He used his first US visa once( nd he spent less than 10days),then got it renewed earlier this yr, he has whole lots on travel history as well.
Moreso, i nev looked desperate, cuz we (i nd dad) originally planned paris or morocco for xmas, bt he insisted i will like US more cuz of the attraction centres there, then we can go to paris nextyr... So i had it in mind that even if i wasnt given, there's another place for mw to go for vacation...
There was one particular guy i met thre, he stood opp where our car waa parked, u need to see ow restless he was, his interview was for 9.30, i met him there around 6.30, nd for complete 3hrs, he was jst moving about, opening his file every now and then, reciting stuffs he crammed, he waa on suit, sweating seriously nd restless. I felt for the guy, like why all that? He was looking desperate to me, not to talk of vo. Fortunately, he waa interviewed before me, nd he was asked jst 2questions before he waa denied. ..
My point is, never u act desperate, ve true intentions, read transcripts just to know ow to answer questions, be explanatory, pray for mercy... Nd u re good....
If u can go through this thread well, nd self screened urself, u won't have a problem.... For those that have bin refused, nd really need vacation, u can check out morocco, it's a lovely place nd quite affordable.. Goodnight oo

Nice one... When you marry.. you will think twice before traveling for vacation because it will not only be you but your family first..
