olamie: Please what’s the assurance that they’ll move faster in the next fiscal year? I'm very optimistic. I've seen yesterday & today, I can only be hopeful for tomorrow. No choice! Do you know the average time it takes to be scheduled for interviews for ir1 and f2a? I don't know the average time. The F2A is "Current", so you can be invited anytime. In the coming FY, the quota count will be reset to zero. I hope you'll beat the cut before Sept. 2023 ending. |

bfn1: The current fiscal year ends in September 2022, so there's just 1 more VB to be released (Sept. 2022).
I am hopeful that from the start of a new year (Oct. 2022 - Sept. 2023), we'll start seeing good movements across all the categories & the monthly VBs will be 'useful' again. So, the VB for September 2022 has been released: No movement. I'm not surprised. That draws the curtain on the 2021/22 window. See you all in the next fiscal year 2022/23 & all the best to everybody on the waiting line. |

emmasoft: The current rate as per the primary auction is as shown in the table ie stop rate is 2.75%. To invest walk into the banking hall of your bank and make inquiries. I know IBTC used to accept 100k and above. Otherwise, you can invest in MMF as a better alternative. First Bank too. He can trade with a minimum of N100k. Cc: sonofthunder |

Amigo101: Don't even know What's going on anymore! No movement for some categories for a whole year. The current fiscal year ends in September 2022, so there's just 1 more VB to be released (Sept. 2022). I am hopeful that from the start of a new year (Oct. 2022 - Sept. 2023), we'll start seeing good movements across all the categories & the monthly VBs will be 'useful' again. |

olamie: Kindly explain the significance of this bulletin. I’m not sure if I remember how to interpret it. F2A says current, once documentarily qualified, does it mean they will get interview date? What month are they now? The whole process is so confusing The VB gives a time indication of the current or next batch of applications to be considered for interviews. You are right about the F2A. Any perceived delay in getting invited for interview would be due to the capacity of the embassy, and if the admission quota for that category, in a fiscal year has been reached (e.g. October 2021 - September 2022). The COVID-19 pandemic dealt the process a big blow. What month are they now? For F2A, you mean? Well, I wouldn't know except people here share their experience or that of their acquaintances. That way, you can work out an estimation. For example, richhill & many others have been kind enough to share their updates which give one a sense of estimation: richhills: I am F4 now in Atlanta . Interviewed on May 19. DQ Feb 22, PD Feb 2007 With this, you can judge the rate at which backlogs are being cleared in F4 category which is definitely less than a month (from the current PD of 22-March-2007 on the VB). |

From Registrar to Bank, to broker, copying CSCS all they way, they cycle continues and keeps cycling. About two years now. Them no give shi shi! Did for Afriprudential, first registrar, Coronation, and mainstream, it was swift and smooth. But you the ones mentioned earlier, they can frustrate body, spirit and soul. Thanks! I can relate with the frustration!  You'll need great patience and determination to resolve issues with them. |

Jeromejnr: There are many bootcamps.
Also you can use Udemy or Freecodecamp on YouTube or their website to learn for free. And it's very easy to use.
Or go to Entrylevel.com select a skill pay around 2500 and they will give you training plus experience, certificate and reference letter.
When you are done start applying for internships online (remote) and also jobs that might have 0+ experience. (Some do offer). Have a portfolio when necessary. Good advice! |

hamtabfawaz: Tips on couch/sofa layout Don't Put all your couch against the wall. Pull your sofa (or other seating) out at least 12″ from the wall. It will make the space seem more inviting and cozy, instead of creating a big bunch of weird dead space in the middle. A good piece of advice! You're doing a good job with interior decorations! |

Ifeanyichukwu42: You need to wait for another 2 to 3 months before you hear from NVC to know if they accepted all your civic documents...but if the require any other document they will let you know . But it is wise to get it right on first submission. The bolded is underrated. While the entire application process is inherently slow, the part of the timeline under your control (that you can save) is when required documents are properly uploaded. |
