Less I forget for those not working yet, you can enrol with Obamacare(medical insurance) in your state like here in minnesota it is call MNsure and get free coverage before you start working. And as regard Tax return,Consult a tax consultant in your area if you are getting snap and cash assistance to know if you can file for tax with tax deduction from your purchases.
This forum as been of great help.Happy new year to all forumite.

Pipsland78: Hello good folks, pls I need a clarification on something: as someone who intends to do PhD in the US, do I need to send my MSc transcript to WES? Is the Wes thing only for transfer students?

Thank you.

No,Wes and other evaluation agency will evaluate your credentials and convert it the US credit units.But you can still visit the admission unit of your the school in mind and get the evaluation done.

nifty:

you cannot be deported for taking food stamp i know a couple here in virginia with 2 kids that get food stamp its not a problem.....what state are you? 3 months is quite long not to get a job.....

You qualified,the law say you can only access snap for 60month(5years) and if you are earning lower pay you can still continue to enjoy the reduce amount.when filling job application(WOTC) ensure that you mention taking it.As company are giving tax credit for employing snap and cash assistance beneficiary and you get Job faster through that means. Cash assiatance are also giving to family on transition here in Minnesota and five other state. And you can also get free phone with 250 minutes calling credit more from Assurance wireless if your state qualifies.

YessWeeCan:

You're welcome bro..

Guess What my SSN and that of my wife was in our apt box why I was nagging yesterday.it remains that of my two kids and our green cards.
I called them these morning I was told to what after 45 days from the day of payment.

I had a very funny Job interview today at RGIS LLC.¶™

FAITH WORKS WONDERS¶™@ PEOPLE here think MY God is a magician.

YessWeeCan:

You got nothing to worry about if you can log into your USCIS.gov account, you can not pay into wrong acc using that site, make sure you print the payment notification. That if i receive 2 mail? i can't confirm that now since i can't log-in my yahoo email for now, i'm ask to provide my alternate e-mail of which i can't remember.

Ok , thank so much¶
Wish you all the best in your Job search.

YessWeeCan:
Bro, on which site did you get those details from? www.pay.gov or www.USCIS.gov, if it's from USCIS.gov then i think your mind should be at rest. The mail you receive from pay.gov is there a link that direct you to USCIS site?

House please, have any one paid his/her USCIS fees using www.pay.gov? pls your contribution is needed here.

I did not use pay.gov to pay.it was the email sent to me(2) two mail.one was pay.gov which confirmation of payment and agencies tracking id. and elisdonot reply. I pay through elis uscis my fear is whether I ve not paid to a wrong a/c.
cos the my case status -accepted/pending review.

YessWeeCan:

yes bro, i receive confirmation of payment which i printed still with me. i have not visit the site since i arrive.

Ok thanks, does the confirmation include email from pay.gov pls there is a reason am askn

YessWeeCan:
Hi bro, i applied for my SSN a day after short-down, 18th Oct and it was delivered 25th Oct. it seems processing is very fast here in MD. i could remember some fellow Marylanders got theirs in 3 working days.

I also paid the USCIS fee in Nigeria, i got my GC without any contact with USCIS same day i got my SSN.

1. Did you change your address at your POE? it seems majority of those changes are not effected.
2. How reliable are the fellow at Georgia?
3. When you register for SSN at Minnesota hope you use your current address?

Perhaps either of this question could be a factor, however processing differs in state to state this also could be a factor. You need not to worry it is their duty to get it across to you just be a little patient.

Thanks bro,

1. My younger brother formally stays at the address but he has noted the post office as regard our surname so that they can be posted to his new address.

2.We have notified the post office here for a change of address to our minnesota address.

3.We actually registered on Monday the 21st and we use our new address though the queue was very long.

4.Did you receive any 2 mail after paying- pay.gov and another ,were you able to check your status before you receive your SSN cos till now is say application pending.

ARE WE REALLY ENTITLE TO SOME DOLLARS(TAX RELIEVE) FROM IRS IN JANUARY IF WE CAN GET A JOB BEFORE THE YEAR RUN OUT PLEASE I WANT SOMEONE TO PLEASE EXPLAIN TO THE HOUSE AS ONE OF MY CLOSE BROTHER IN CHURCH TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE GIVING $7000 IN THERE FIRST YEAR IN MINNESOTA BECAUSE THE TOTAL EARNING FOR THAT YEAR WAS NOT UP TO THE EARNING HE OUGHT TO MAKE FOR THE YEAR.

A piece of advice for new immigrants.
We are 9 months old here in United States of America and i can tell you guys that God has been very good to us.
Dont ever you loose your focus.Here in United States,you can start small and become exceptionally great within a twinkle of an eye without robbing people.
Be very mindful of your confession.Even in difficult times learn to say positive things to yourself.
Be mindful of people you discuss your plans with.Here in US,there are a lot of dream killers.They aint going anywhere and will do all within their powers to discourage people.
As for me and family this land will favor us IJN.
After 7 months of desperately looking for jobs,over 40 different interviews i just got a lucrative job (Audit Job).
I will be based here in Baltimore,MD but i will travel to 4 different continents for my assignments.

New immigrants,your story can be different,please don't loose hope.I started as a Residential Program Technician (Direct Care) with Chimes Inc but now levels don change finally by Gods grace.
Be hopeful and add value to yourself.God will see us through,

Cheers

Got you Bros,I got two interview this week and one is an auditing company,RGIS pls is it the same company you got ur employment.if yes pls mail me cos I got some questions to ask you

Hi Faithman2020..........

Sorry for replying this post late.......Been away from Nairaland for sometimes due to relocation.........

Yes.............I know someone in Houston that can help with training. He is a Nigerian and a Platinum SAP member and a great source of advice for those that are determined.

email me on 'nairaconver'at'gmail'dot'com '

,
Bros I ll send you mail right away .

ade2rasq: Hello people of this gr8 haos, kindly advise on this; it may look funny but very important to me. I and my family wil be moving to USA courtesy of DV very soon and I want to know if Tecno phantom fone wil work over there cos I m planning to get one before my sojourn. Ur candid advice wil be highly welcome.

Yes your Techno will work perfectly.it the N3 version I am using right away,it the WIFI in the neighbourhood I am using cos I v nt gotten a line yet cos my ssn is not ready.
And when coming try to do MTN roaming cos I forgot to do it.so that when you come you can still be using your no. to call home before settling down and get a new line if you dont want maintain the MTN line again.

Fortsucc: Thank you,we have handed it over to the immigration officer,but what trouble me is that,the alien number and the case id that we will use to pay for our gc was written on the sheet and we didn't have the copy,so we dont know how to pay for it without these numbers.

The information you need is in your Visa.

YessWeeCan: Got my SSN and GC today, just a week after government re-opens, less than a month i arrive here. Glory be to God.

Wow,pls did you apply for the SSN after the shortdown or before.I arrive US on 27th sept and I ve been trying to access our a/c on elis for USCIS immigrant fee we paid before leaving Nigeria.It give accepted/application pending.And I tried calling USCIS they told me our receipt no. shows that our case could not be found. I am worried though,we applied for our SSN on 21st monday after the short down we were suppose go to Georgia and we re Minnesota instead they ve nt seen our green card in georgia.today is our 30th day in america

obinnaud:

I am experiencing the same thing here at Houston Texas o. I went to the SSN office at Stancliff Rd Texas only to be told that due to the govt shut dwn, dey cant process new applicants for the SSN. no SSN no driver's license, no job nufin ooo. I just tire.

It really frustrating. Anyone with any idea of any training one can do without SSN.

kevwe_flex:

PEACE!

Sure¶ With Dryer but you drop $1.50 for washing and $1.25 for drying.

baba ajala: hello house pls can anybody tell me how to get an admission in u.s? nd what site can i apply or how do i go about it?

[color=#0066

Jettison whatever admission you get for Nigeria and come down there far better public University here. google Transworld Education.

Husmern: Taking off.....2mao! *in sha allah* Vegas loading....

I wish you safe journey.

kevwe_flex:

Very very. Converting it to naira, it's way way huge. Is it already furnished?

Yes a Giant fridge,Electric cooker,dish washer,airconditioner etc excluding furnitures, Tv and kitchen utensil which I got from Bridging at no cost though I dont know the arrangement between my pastor and them but you can only go there to get thing once on your arrival.
But my advice is if your church has a branch in america and you are a worker their pls come through the church.

candytos:

Thanks for this info, who do we ask of this SPTC, at booking point or in Doha?

Ask at the point of booking or You call their customer care after booking for your flight and just ask for SPTC at Doha airport,they will ask for your booking ref no. and date of departure.you call them or visit their office at MMA 1. a week before your departure.
you be very happy you did.

Somorin#1:


A Social Security Card.

Depending on the immigration form that you fill out, one may be forthcomming to you but you might be able to get it yourself at the SSA office.

In the US, your SSN is like a golden key. You need it to do all sorts of things.

I dont understand. Are you saying we can apply as the strike linger. pls elaborate.

kevwe_flex:

I am interested. How do we go about it?

I am also interested like you.it Alutaa's qoute.it couldnt be bolded.
