Jolek15: MRV fee is the same as visa application fee and once you pay that, you can book. SEVIS fee can be paid later but must be paid at least 72 hours before your interview. 1 Like |

Lete: I doubt there's any "how" to it? Follow the prompt on the screen that says "print confirmation" and print it like any regular document, you can print it coloured because of the passport photo but I don't think it matters. I know someone who went with black and white and it wasn't an issue. 1 Like |

Hi everyone. A friend of mine asked some questions which I'm not able to answer. She's not on NL but approved of me posting it here. Please, I need advice from experienced people here. I will be sharing her story and her questions below. I'll be using imaginary names, so we can follow. She (maiden name: Ada Okeke) recently lost her husband (Obi Eze) of 3yrs and they had a son (Junior Eze) together before his death. She is a first class graduate, currently on her Master's program here in Nigeria and is considering PhD in the US (Fall 2021). She has not done her change of name but on the child's birth certificate, her name is written as Ada Eze. She's still young, so there's every possibility of remarriage. The child is 18 months old. Now, she has the following concerns: How will this affect her going with the child after getting the admission? Should she still do the change of name so that it matches what is on her child's certificate? Should she get another birth certificate for the child where her name is written as her maiden name Ada Okeke? Also, she wants to get her intl passport soon and is not sure if she should do change of name before then or use her maiden name. It's really complicated but I hope I was able to explain well. Thanks in advance for your responses. |

Visa approved US Consulate, Lagos Nov 30 2020 7:00 N:B This is a testimony/ transcript � My mum's call woke me up at 4:59am before my 5:00am alarm. She prayed for me. Then I started getting ready, prayed and read my devotional and as God would have it, one of the readings was Jn14:26 downwards. I read 26,27 and I was like this is a done deal! I'm going to get my visa. Got to the Consulate some minutes past 6. Those guys at the car park were like come and staple your passport, do you have phone, come and keep it here, this is where you will pass .. Bla Bla bla...I just kept going, not minding them... I had already gone to do survey yesterday, I went to figure out the location and all... and kept saying to myself I am leaving here with my visa approval tomorrow. Here goes Me : Good morning V.O: Good morning, pass your documents. Scrolling through her screen and squeezing face Me: Passed it and kept my cool V.O: Can you put your fingers on the scanner Me: I did V.O: Put your mask down for a second Me: I did and smiled at her. V.O: She smiled back and said , "thank you, put it back" V.O: Where are you going to? I am going to University of Delaware for my PhD program in Chemistry and Biochemistry with concentration in Biochemistry V.O: what is your intent? Me I got confused but immediately regained my composure) I will be working with Prof.... on redox biology and antioxidant proteins.. Can't remember all I said.. V.O: which other schools did you apply to? Me: listed them GMU, CSU, UNM, USC V.O: How did you choose this school /what did you do to get this school (not sure) Me: I did an extensive search on the internet, reached out to professors, took the standardized tests and I had a video interview. V.O: Do you have your academic transcripts here? ( she asked 2 people before me the same thing) Me in my mind 'Ha, what is this?' )kept calm and said 'no, they are not here but I have my test scores' V.O: What other documents do you have here then Me: Gave her my test scores and funding letter. V.O: Where is your admission letter (Hmmm, God have mercy o. Will I get funding without admission? ). I calmly told her, "I don't have it here ma, my admission was actually for Fall but I had to defer to Spring due to the closure at that time." I am not sure that is the appropriate response but I sha said what came to my mind. V.O: Nodded V.O: What will you do when you return? Me: I currently work as a research assistant at my Alma mater and I intend returning to take up a lecturing position there. V.O: How much do you earn at your current position? Me: *** V.O: What did you study at Master's level? Me: Biochemistry V.O: undergraduate? Me: Same V.O: Are you married? No V.O: Any kids? No V.O: Have you ever traveled outside Nigeria? I've never had a reason to Me: (Here comes the verdict, or so I thought but she obviously had other plans) V.O: What is your masters GPA? Me: (in my mind, are are still on this matter?) Me: 3.43 V.O: Undergrad? Me: 3.35 V.O: Nodded again (at this point I was wondering whether she was verifying from somewhere) V.O: Looked at the screen and scrolled again You worked as a science teacher, how long was this? 5 months, before I started my Masters program. V.O: checked her screen and nodded V.O: How long have you been in your current position Me: One year V.O: nodded again while typing. Have you travelled outside Nigeria before Me: (shebi you have asked before) I was getting tired already but I sha shook my head to say no. V.O: Typed for what seemed like eternity V.O: I will be issuing your visa... Me: Thank you very much, then 'the popular temporary deafness' Whew! That was intense! To God alone be all the glory! I saw His hand all through the entire process! Thanks to everyone for the transcripts shared, questions answered, tips given and suggestions made on this platform... God's blessings! Best wishes to all going for their interview soon! Pls take every document possible o Prepare for any kind of question but stay calm even if the question seems to throw you off balance. Pray, prepare and pray 43 Likes 3 Shares |

paulousguy: As long as you've not scheduled an appointment with the old one, I think you can fill a new one. You just need to change the confirmation number on cgi to the new one before scheduling an appointment. And... if it's not yet up to a year that you made the MRV fee payment, it's still valid 2 Likes |
