if 35m can build a duplex in this tinubu regime of 2025...that means 10m to 15m would have built it pre tinubu/pmb of 2015/2017

Same issue. Application just says “refused”
Initial IW application- Aug 28th
Multiple emails, passport not at OIS after multiple visits, no communication from embassy. If anyone has any suggestions, I’m getting worried here.
Hmmm, seems its best to opt for face 2 face interview then. B4 missing passport gbese is added ontop visa denial
TravelRe: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by cretin: 12:33pm On Dec 09, 2024
So yet again engaged avits on chat, for missed IW appointment and the agent claimed that i should upload my gt bank receipt on my account and not just ref number

I told the agent, there is no such room for apart, from on a ticket, and agent insisted that there is, that uploading on ticket will not help me.

So am asking if anyone has seen where one can upload the old gt bank receipt on ones profile on avits?

Please anyone who can help on this......
from my experience, the OIS people appear confused..b4 they were honoring ois dates for dropoffs, but now..they say its avits date, mine was 26th avits date, booked 29th ois date....went on 29th was turned back, and it was so painfully, cos i flew in and out. your best bet is to go on the avits date. show the people at the gate the avits letter, they should let you in. presently/last month...the avits date was superior to the ois date....hope they hvnt changed yet again, when u go

Heads up no point choosing a DHL location

We went to a DHL location and were redirected to the OIS office.

Also the initial DHL location you chose in your application will not work. So when scheduling the passport pickup please choose an OIS location to avoid wasting your time and transportation. Cheers
good to know

1. Even, if your spouse is the most notorious criminal in the USA, the USA embassy will still give you the Equal Opportunity and Freedom of Rights, based on your personal profile. Therefore, if you are qualify for the VISA, they will gladly grant you.

🙏
ok thanks, really appreciate your input, i heard tales of how they would try to keep the family apart, by denying the visa of other spouse, saying they hv immigration intent, in other to force/smoke the asylee spouse back/out of usa
TravelRe: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by cretin: 4:31pm On Sep 23, 2024
anybody has experience on how the usa views someone, whose spouse is an asylum seeker in the usa based on the kids who are citizens.
would they just summarily reject the visa application cos of the spouse asylum without looking at the merits of the case and the persons clean sheet of visiting the usa and returning without overstaying?

Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by cretin: 12:23am On Apr 11, 2023
so, my flooded battery has 2 problems.

1. the electrolyte depletes very fast...within 6weeks, i top up with distilled water and charge at 14.7v and 13.8v float

2. in a battery of 6 cells, maybe 4 or 5 cells will have low electrolyte after 6weeks, while one or 2 cells will have half full electrolyte.

3.i have 4 batteries in series with solar supporting it and grid. by 9pm, the battery voltage drops to 50v and remains there almost tru the night or hovers between 50v and 49.7v. but when the electrolyte is low, the voltage remains btw 50.5v and 51.5v . so i believe the higher concentration makes the battery voltage sag to be minimal. the batteries are 2.5yrs old. and just get warm to touch during charging...luminous battery.

has anyone experienced this and what can i do to turn things around?

Are you sure you answered all the questions properly, cos if you clicked a wrong answer , it would assume you are not eligible. It happened to me once. So click on new appointment and read and answer the questions correctly.
i clicked on new appointment...and the IW thing didn't pop up...just took me straight to booking dates for normal interview.
pls what am i doing wrong?
i also clicked CONTINUE...and same result

edit: was doing something wrong, click the b1/b2 without interview option, 4th option or so from the top

Bros, no games in this arena. As they say it, that is how it is.
Let me give you one example. Did you know that some brake pads at Autozone store have lifetime warranty? At least this one I have used.
You make a normal one time purchase (no extra charges) and then, each time the brake pads get worn out, you return them for a free replacement. Completely no charge, and no questions asked.
Don’t ask me how the manufacturer make their profit, because I don’t know.
When will Nigeria reach that level, in terms of quality assurance?
When will nigeria have stable electricity?.
Electricity was invented over 2 centuries ago.
The most populous black nation on the earth is still battling with providing basic electricity to her citizens 250yrs after the invention of electricity.
