Okay. An applicant wants to apply for visa using two different accounts at two different places?
Well I've not seen or heard of this before but this is as bold as it gets.
Me I just have a question, if this is possible and the applicant gets the dates what will he/she do if the first visa location gets rejected? Will he/she go to the second location with the same data for a second fresh interview?? What is the likely thing that will happen to the applicant?

Planner99:
Please is it possible to pay 2 visa fees and book 2 visa appointments (one in Abuja, the other in Lagos) with 2 different DS-160s (but with same data)?
If one doesn't get favourable dates, is it possible to apply for emergency appointments in both consulates with the different DS 160s after having paid 2 separate visa fees. I hope my question is clear.

cuttingedge:
Hello all, I think I've asked this question before but still not sure I got anyone to respond...or maybe I missed the response. Myself and my wife got a fully funded PhD and Grad Assistantships. When we apply for Visa, how do we go about it and how do we sort out the critical issue of home ties and all. We have a 1year plus son.
Also how do we sort out the issue of SOA too.

Emmyn007:
Please, I got admission to study chemistry at the university of arkansas at little rock. I have been asked to provide proof of funds. And my family got a loan. The school is asking for a bank reference letter showing proof of funds. I was wondering if anybody here paid tuition before I -20 was released.

Planner99:
Hello guys,

I need your input on this. I'm sorry, it's going to be a long one, kindly bear with me:

I currently have an active immigration case as my dad filed for me to immigrate into the US. This should come to fruition hopefully in a couple of years.

I've always planned to do a masters in my field as soon as I immigrated but since the pandemic struck and everything slowed down, I feel like I should no longer just sit and wait for that.

I have gotten an admission into a respectable US graduate school of my top choice (still looking for funding) and plan to apply for a student visa.
My plan is to come back to Nigeria for my immigrant visa interview when it reaches my turn, I do not mind that at all. I'm hoping that will happen before my 2-year MSc is over.
I want to get a masters in US specifically because that is where I plan to settle and a US degree will help secure jobs better and faster than degrees from another country

I just don't want to keep my career stagnant because of an unfortunate pandemic causing a lot of backlog for my immigration stuff as I'm in the best phase of my life and career to take this step.

I will like to add that I have previously gotten a B1/B2 visitors visa which I used once all while waiting for the immigrant visa. I had thought then too that they wouldn't grant the visitors visa because of my pending immigration stuff but they did. The visa officer just made sure to remind me not to mess up or overstay because that will negatively affect my immigration case.

Also, I am contemplating applying for a renewal of my visitors visa before applying for the student visa since I qualify for their new 'no interview, drop box' renewal. This is because regardless of whether my student visa is approved or not, I will like to visit my family freely without breaking their rules.

My questions are:
1. What do you guys think my chances of getting the student visa approved are?
2. Should I bother with the renewal of visit visa?
3. If my visit visa is approved and my student visa is refused after, will they cancel my visit visa that was approved?
4. If my visit visa is refused, will that negatively affect my chances of getting the student visa in a few months after?

Ezichi123:
I am a Masters student and I am on student residence permit

Ezichi123:
As usual, I walked into the interview hall with the hope and believe that God will change my story the secondtime. I had my first US interview 3 years back on Visiting visa and this time around, I decided to go for F1. I applied for MBA at one private school in USA.
My one year estimation tuition and accommodation is $30,000 with $3000 scholarship from my school and my sponsoring bank statement of $34000.



Please, who can advise me on why I was rejected my visa. I have travelled to 6 countries. I was only one that was denied Visa among the number of white people that came for visa.

chisomebube:
Good day everyone
Please has anyone got admission response from texas womans university chemistry precisely

Becky42:
Good evening , is there anyone here with admission to University of Little rock , Arkansas ?

Redfang:
Good morning comrades. Please I need help with my ds-160. I got a new job this January which is in line with my course of study, but I've held a previous job for close to five years now which I'm still into(it's a self-employed kind) and it's not in any way related to what I'll be studying in my master. My question is this, should I fill in both jobs or should I scratch the one that's not related to what I'll be studying? Thank you as you read and respond.

Words on the Nairaland said he is a notorious scammer. He goes around changing his moniker. Check my attached you would see his reputation in capital letters.

He is same as Jeffrey150 https://www.nairaland.com/jeffrey150

Let's be guided.

damolah10:
Well, the option I gave you is hassle free and it works. Lesson learnt don't give out money to people that you don't for assistance. Most especially, without proven record and vouch on what they claim they can help you with.

Refer to the solution I gave you early.

damolah10:
I think ETS purposely make it almost impossible to make payment by one's self because of chargeback issues. However, you can get this done by putting a call through and initiate a request for additional test score via phone. They would ask for your card details such as name on the card, billing address, and the rest. Btw, stick with your flutterwave virtual dollar card because it's a visa debit card and that's what they accept not a master debit card.

GAPPLE:
Good day house.
Please I need to verify this.

My fiance in the USA on F1 visa is coming to renew his visa this year, also coming for our wedding, and wants to file for F2 visa for me also.

He said he can get F2 i20 for me before our wedding.

Can we register for our visas before our wedding?

We plan on going for our interview together

JEFFREY150:
it working maybe yours. Let me know what the problem is? If you need any help let me know.

Cocao:
I used it yesterday and the day before and it worked fine. Let me know if you need any help

Inspireink:
There are so many platforms (online and offline) that you can learn software engineering. As for me, I started online training from YouTube and LinkedIn learning, but I got stuck somewhere in the middle of the course. At times trying to self learn coding may be hard if there is no mentor to guide you. Currently, I am learning DevOps at Fellowship at The Bulb Africa (https://www.fellowship.thebulb.africa/). It was a friend in Lagos that actually introduced me to The Bulb. You don't need to pay until you're done with your training until you get a job as a software engineer. They even gave me a laptop. lol

godguy:
Please i need help and clarification, if you are a foreigner working in another country, during your interview, if you are asked your plan after graduation, what should you say,
1. Going back to your country to work. or

2. Going back to the country where you are currently working?


Please i need assistance on this.

thanks
