Dude asked where to get a yellow card and I said port health. You were the one who even thought it was yellow fever enquiry. Which one be all these again? Did I send anybody anywhere? Abeg walka pass.
graduatestudent:

This has nothing to do with your answer being appropriate or not. It’s about understanding the scenario the person who asked the question is in. The fact that you have the yellow card as an option doesn’t mean it’s the same for the person. In my case the school provided the forms and there’s no requirement for yellow card. It’s best to ask for clarification on the question to know the best advice to give. Sending the person off to Port Health might be totally unnecessary in this case. That’s the point I’m making.

And with a yellow card, your vaccination record is there in print. Port Health fills the form and stamps it. Port Health is the National Vaccination/Immunization agency of Nigeria. A Yellow Card is also specified as an option in my forms. Since you may not know what prompted his question or have knowledge of the form he recieved, the answer I gave was appropriate.

graduatestudent:
No. The forms require the hospital or health facility to fill out dates and stamp with their official stamp as proof of vaccinations or test. So the question to ask if this is the case for the person making the inquiry. There might be no need to go through the process of getting a yellow card if the school has provided documentation to be filled out.

Travel / Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by CptCharlesVane: 10:48pm On Jul 13, 2019
And the forms may require attached documents to attest to what is filled. The Yellow card serves as a record for nationally approved vaccinations. You might have other records showing immunization but if you can't find one, port health would issue a Yellow Card.
graduatestudent:
Well the schools provide forms to be filled documenting the immunizations, so no need for a yellow card anyway unless the school didn’t provide forms to be completed.

Not PoE. One can go in via another state. Schools in New York require MMR vaccination records and meningitis vaccination aknowledgement. Mandatory for all New York post-secondary students. New York State Public Health Law 2165*
The guy mentioned yellow card and vaccination records are registered on the yellow card including yellow fever vaccinations.

For school or poe?... I was in new York last month , wasn't asked for yellow fever.

The guy said yellow card, not yellow fever. MMR and meningitis vaccinations are registered on yellow cards.
graduatestudent:
My school is in New York and Yellow fever is not on the list of required vaccinations from the school.

In office? even if he lives very long, how many years would he have left to live the mess he is creating?
traihit:


If not for Femi Adeshina, because he's a westerner, you won't hear anything from the presidency. One major thing Buhari did in his terms is creating more enmity between other Nigerians and the Fulanis. He won't be in office to see the full consequences of this.

Leaving an EM scholarship for another in NYC with a deficit? They sent my I-20 to me by Fedex. No charge at all. You could always go to the US after your program in France.

If you insist though, you could contact them about your difficulty but keep in mind that it's getting late.

All the best!
TheNoble007:
Good morning fam. My school (CUNY) is demanding for a proof of income like paystub, tax returns etc of my sponsor, in order to get my I 20. Is this ideal? . Apart from sponsor's bank statement to cover deficits. I got a merit scholarship together with a GRA. I gained admit late because I applied late, and I feel like abandoning this whole thing for France. My sponsor is a business man. Very few business men have tax returns. Can you please advise me on what to do? Thanks!

@Mycaseisdiffere Have you booked an appointment yet? Since this is a new year, you can try again. I was also surprised how you were able to get 4 apointments in the same month, maybe why they got so furious with the denials.

New year, new hopes. You've been to the US many times so it should be good. Good luck!

They would only ask and isn't the applicant expected to know better why the second MSc regardless? Then they should say why. Me too doesn't make that much sense but PhDs admissions aren't shopped for in the marketplace, and like she said, she applied for a PhD and was admitted for a masters on scholarship ... Hard to turn down a scholarship from Harvard. I agree with you but making it seem like courses should be selected with VOs in mind is where we defer.
Time2win:


You said they shouldn't care why someone is going for another MSc, that was why i gave that illustration. it's same non-immigrant intent that they are trying to determine. To me it doesn't make any sense going for another MSc in same field or closely related field when one can easily opt for PhD
Travel / Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by CptCharlesVane: 6:09pm On Jul 11, 2019
Oh Travelled and stayed for 5 months after F1 visa was denied four times? cry I can only imagine VOs taking it like she dared them.Tough.
Time2win:


Last trip which he stayed 5months was November 2018. He had his F1 visa interview in August 2018. Look at the picture of the issue again
Travel / Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by CptCharlesVane: 5:55pm On Jul 11, 2019
You might not agree with me and that's fine but as long as a university can issue a valid I-20 they are good to go for an F-1 visa. What most people are unable to do at the interviews is to demonstrate why, out of all the schools in the United States, they choose to go to those obscure ones

Going by this visa thread on NL, almost if not all who selected such schools didn't even fill the DS-160 form and left everything, from school selection to visa application, in the hands of an agent. How then would such a person give any coherent reason why they selected such schools. Also, people who search for schools themselves and go the whole 9 yards, don't select such 'suspect' schools. It's that simple.

No one should be going to any university in the US because the VO would like the school, or doing a PhD because the VO won't like to see another master's degree. The VOs are inconsequential in that regard, let's stop giving them too much credit. The visa application and interview is another process and time and again it has been stated that it is about proving non-immigrant intent at the discretion of the VO. That is what they are legally obligated to do, not tell you the school is small or big or whatnot. Those are jobs for other people. Again, you could ask them, and they would agree.
Time2win:


If we are to go by this, they shouldn't care about the schools we applied to and why we chose the school. all those questions make me sick on why they ask. unfortunately, that's not how the system works. the fellow should target PhD as things ain't working out for second MSc

Exactly what I said boss. We are in perfect simulacrum. cool
fairheart:
She was NEVER refused because of the program she's going for. People gets their F1 visa irrespective of program, even if it is evangelism that the whole world know Nigeria is leading. It depends on case by case assessment and profile of the applicant, and the consular conducting the interview.

Travel / Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by CptCharlesVane: 5:19pm On Jul 11, 2019
It doesn't make sense, maybe, but the onus lies on the applicant to prove why they choose to go for the program while also proving non-immigrant intent. Like I mentioned earlier she is fully funded, so it sure makes a lot of sense to Harvard to sponsor her second MSc. The VOs are not the ones to decide what makes sense in someones lives or educational endeavours, and you can ask them they'll agree, they are there for a reason to assess your intent in the US to see if you qualify according to their laws.
Time2win:


you can't have same MSc in a field and going for another MSc in same field unless in different field. It doesn't make any sense and can be refused for that.
