Why do I have to Pray to Him when He knows exactly what I want?

If you want someone to give you something, will you close your mouth and expect him to give it to you... Brother, you'll ask first

Good evening everyone in this trend, I seriously need to correct something I've been seeing here on this wonderful trend.... Yes, am not a religious fanatic, I've not even been to church since May 12th(that's the truth) but it doesn't really mean I don't acknowledge God's existence or am not in peace with him. I really do believe in God and his amazing abilities. I love God.
A few of us believe God has no role to play in this visa stuff(I believe he does,100%),some question why Europeans and asians don't call to whatever God they believe in when going for visa interviews.... Well, truth is we are not even sure of this. I truly believe everything works with belief, if they believe God has no role to play and it works for them, FINE!.... If most of us here believe God has a big role to play, FINE!!... For me I believe baba(God) works with YOU(our preparation) ,and that's also very FINE!!!
Gracia's!!!

Wretch32:
40% scholarship on tuition
35k deficit
No document was asked

congratulations! msc or undergraduate

Stevenssen:
It's called just student visa in Canada. f1 is just the American name.
There is no sevis fee or interview but there is a visa processing fee.
Go to the first page of the thread and follow the link of the first post, you'll find all the info you need. You can then ask questions if anything isn't clear to you.

cheers.

Thank you so much

xcaper:
Congratulations, am happy you got your approvals after some previous attempts. No giving up

congratulations! Please on applying for a Canadian f1 visa, what are the payments required? How much is there visa fee? Do they pay sevis fee?

Good afternoon everyone here,please am new on this trend but I've been following up u.s travel section trend for students. I really need a bit guidance for getting a visa to study in Canada . Like how the process works.

groovychik:
Jealousy and envy is bad. You said this yst and was ignored, but you really need the attention here so repeated again. Pls note that Sharwama is not the reason for your Visa denial. Go on and enjoy your 15 seconds of fame you little man.

haha

Talking about just finding a school in California, please do you have any knowledge of how big California is

Nehemiah77:

Nehemiah77:
Good day fam. My visa was approved this morning at Lagos consulate.
I had a full tuition waiver with 13,300usd deficit. Used uncle as my sponsor. VO didn't as for his SOA.
I will share my transcript shortly.

congrats, first attempt? What level?

Shortcess:
Hey guys, my Visa was approved this morning at the Lagos consulate. Here is my transcript

VO:good morning
Me:good morning

VO: pass your i20 and passport
Me: *hands it over*

VO: do you have any relatives in the United States?
Me: yes, my sister

VO: where does she stay
Me: I mentioned the name of the state

VO: what does she do
Me: she's a student

VO: why did you choose to go to Mcneese
Me: Mcneese state university has an abundance of school spirit including various campus activities to choose from
I noticed she was shaking her head so I stopped talking

VO: you haven't answered my question
Me: the department of biology at Mcneese State University advances student knowledge through a wide range of opportunities to enter the work force or continue their education
She was still shaking her head, so I started shaking

VO: we know that, I need a specific reason
I got really scared so I started blabbing along the lines of "it has the technological and reseach facilities that will aid my learning"
She still continued to shake her head

VO: all schools in the United States do that, I haven't heard your reason for picking this school
Me: Mcneese gave me the highest scholarship which is why I chose to go there
Then, she nodded

VO: that is what I wanted to hear. So, who will be sponsoring your education
Me: my mom

VO: what does she do
Me: she's an accountant that works with XYZ company

VO: can I see her bank statement
Me: sure
This is where my heart was beating frantically because the money there wasn't up to the estimation of my fees but that was the best my mom could do

VO: does she have other bank accounts
Me: yes, she does

Vo: she just smiled and said "come and pick your Visa in 3 days time"
I was literally crying on the spot. I couldn't stop saying "thank you ma" because everyone who went before was denied but I didn't lose hope
So, all in all, thank you guys. This thread has been nothing but helpful to me and I hope others will benefit from this thread

was this ur first trial, and is it undergraduate level?

Pefuele:
I had a similar experience.The point he gave may not be excellent but are fair enough.He could have just talk about passion and personalize it with a short story.
Jobs should have been left out...it is okay to say it offers more opportunities!
However,the reason I see for the denial is not this response but the SOA.The calculations the VO they make shows he wasn't convince about something and he mentioned co-sponsored whereas he has only one SOA.If he has both it may have changed the complexion.
I told the VO co-sponsored last year and she gave me a funny 'family is struggling financially look'.
Another could have approved though!

Never,wanted to drop a comment but now I have to... It's the SOA!

Passion2009:
Hello. Good morning. Please, I need clarifications on the following.

I already have my I-20 and sevis number but I do not understand what people mean when they talk about sevis fee/receipt?


Apart from the I-20, passport and Bank Statement, which other document(s) do I need to take along to the interview?

Thank you so much.

pls go and make your sevis fee payment as soon as possible because it'll increase from 200$ to $350 after 24th June ....stop asking questions and just get hell on and do it

Hackord007:
Please any USA school still available for admission for undergraduate,please let me know if it’s not too late to apply for one

dwilliams707:
Please can I book my appointment 30 minutes after I pay my visa fee?

juliusdudu:
My F1 visa was approved last Tuesday. I was advised to pick up my passport 48hours afterwards.

Wednesday was a public holiday. Thursday and Friday were working days. However, my passport is still at the embassy when I tracked it this morning.

My school resumes in 2 days. I have sent the embassy a message but no reply yet. What can I do?

Congratulations! undergraduate or master degree?

kinibd:
No, Masters Level.

okay, it's still cool

kinibd:
do you happen to be at st. Clouds? Tell me something about the indians lol.

Hey, that's my destination too,is it undergraduate level?

Time2win:
Yeah unless you contact embassy or reschedule.

you really don't have to

Predstan:
I am telling you that you cannot edit your ds-160 3 days before your interview and you are arguing with me. Okay, I want someone to experiment that then. Good luck

Yes,youre right, you can't edit 3 days before interview, it'll go against you
