Hello! Please help me.

I want to do a WES verification. My statement of result is available, however my MSc certificate is still being processed.
Can I start the WES process now or do I have to wait till my certificate is 100% ready, in some weeks?

I have searched past threads, but couldn't find any direct answer to this.

Thanks!!

DECISION TO MIGRATE
Since them born me actually...cause mannn, this country don spoil tey tey. But anyways, I have always wanted to leave as far back as I can remember. Tried the school route for my masters, didn't work. I got the full gist about EE from @COPR2020 and @teesquad007 early last year. I was in the 2nd year of my Msc then so I had to chill till I was done

ECA
Finished Msc in November 2019, result came out in Feb 2020. Processed my transcript from Unilag same Feb. Had to grease someone's palm for my transcript to leave Unilag (another reason to run from this country). ECA came out June 3rd

REFERENCE LETTER -
Had to wait till I had gathered every other document before going to break the news to my boss that I needed a reference letter from him. I had just demanded for a raise in July (after having gotten one earlier in march). I was waiting for ending of August to see if my salary was raised. Salary came, it was raised. So you can imagine having to go and ask for reference letter to japa one month after demanding for a raise.

Anyways, I went and told my boss I wanted to pursue another degree in Canada in 2022 and wondered if he would oblige to stand as a referee for my school application. He said no problem. So I told him that at the same time i was trying to process a residency permit to enable me work while schooling and would need a work reference letter from him (can u imagine such stupid lamba??). Baba said "enheh", I said "ehn". He said "ok, whenever the time comes". Nigga was thinking 2022.
One week later I went back and told him baba the time has come. Baba said "ahn ahn, enheh", I said "ahh, ehn". I sha got the reference letter after much much

thedsl:
Hi everyone. I have been refused a US Visa before (Tourist Visa).
On the part of the form where they asked if I’ve been refused before, please how much information should I give there? In the ‘explain’ part.

The reason for refusal was inability to demonstrate strong ties.

If I go into all of these details and explain everything, will it jeopardize my chances of getting the F1 visa this time around?

Thank you

Farajobs:
Depends. Are you claiming points for NYSC ? If yes, then employment.

mvem:
not really but na positive step

kilankoazeez:
I that's their own decision to make at the embassy themselves, let's wait and see

Good news?

fairheart:
An intellectual with an honest view on a subject would not interpret a statement out of context, but look at it objectively within the context such statement has been used.
He quoted a sentence that I used in a context of what I was talking about. More so, look at the example you applied the quote to. Isn't that ridiculous and shows that you just didn't like the quote and not because the quote was invalid or not true? You can't wait for his wife because his wife belong to him; you don't deserve his wife because you have your own wife. Don't be a cheat.
If you really think the quote is not necessarily true as much as it sounds nice, give me a better and reasonable example. Your example here is as ridiculous as the way you see the quote.

And that quote was originally mine.

TWoods:
So if I wait patiently for your wife, it is a sign confirming that I deserve her?

Sorry but I have to laugh at our predilection for thinking every statement that sounds nice is necessarily true.

slimmy2005:
Nigeria wasn’t included in their publication.

They are not opening anytime soon and if they open, F-1 won’t be their priority. Not in this COVID period.

The present administration do not want you around. They had to fight for those that are already in here for them to be able to stay while taking classes online.

You are not coming to US this 2020, the earlier you realize this, the better for you.

jayzen:
I would have thought so some months back but it seems it's up to the embassy as it stands now
I won't like to defer and defer again. And yes my funding is assured for spring.

Mrshape:
Please can I use a student visa to work in the US
maybe get a SAT score of 1500.
Get some funding.
But on arrival I will give little attention to school and more to hustle?

How possible it is?

Eniolakiite:
Most of these countries have had high cases and have been able to really manage it. Nigeria that we are not even doing proper and enough testing and we didn't take lockdown seriously. We turned it to curfew Now our leaders are fainting to avoid answering questions
It is well.

slimmy2005:
I just created a petition that seeks to implore the US government to ban all immigration from Nigeria to the US till 2022.

All of US go kpai here. No one is escaping.

slimmy2005:
You are wasting your.

See, Akpabio is sharing all the NDDC project among National Assembly members, Ngige and Falake Dey throw jabs for hearing.

You better go and watch TV and see when Nigeria will finally drown so you can move to Niger republic, I heard Ghana don’t want Nigerians either.

Forget 2020. Trump is not opening any embassy for you.

slimmy2005:
Open the damn embassy, we need to live Nigeria before we all drown here�.

This is a world emergency, our criminal government already sank Nigeria. The US government should open the embassy so we can all flee. It is better to kpai in US than kpai In Nigeria

solastar2:
Even if you get there today, get infected and die today, it is still better than getting infected in Nigeria. People are bound to die here sef with ot without corona. No social distance, no palliative, no basic amenities, etc. It is better to die for something (education) than to die for nothing in Nigeria. We all understand that there is nothing we can do but we wish things are different. I'm glad America figure is real but the hardest part is that you dont even know whether Nigeria figure is real or not. Every situation is being corrupted regardless of whether life is involve or not. Travel ban or not, these people still travel on daily basis to their desired location (perhaps they have multiple passports).

Please, let those who care not about corona death lament if they want to. As a matter of fact, you dont even know what they are passing through. The way we live here right now (in Lagos) will make you to doubt the existence of corona regardless of what figure is released. Afterall, who die one day with or without corona.

kastgeraldino:
Does one pay a new SEVIS fee if you defer and have to get a new I-20? I know visa fee is not affected for one year.

Otoge:
Just display all the cash you have ever received on a table and scan. Add a tag labelling each month.
Alternatively, On your pay day, when the employer is giving you the cash, have a third party take a picture of you receiving it from the employer. Upload the pictures.
