Why not take her to a teaching hospital? At least you will be sure of your result.

I can't find where to start a thread on this so I'll just do it here.

I'm in the US and have no green card or work papers. My dad did me wrong and didn't get my green card. I've been here the last 21 years unable to work a regular job and mostly homeless. I've decided I should just return to Nigeria so I can at least work, etc. But I have questions:

How do I go about doing this? I don't have my Nigerian passport anymore and would have to get another one. Also, who do I talk to here in the US? I want to be back where people are generally comvivial or hospitable. There are plenty of opportunities in America, but they usually come at unforeseen costs. I don't want to be here any longer as not even the churches here are willing to lend a hand. Everyone here is selfish and if you're not selfish before you come here, you will be after.

Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Depends on your state. There are many undocumented people living in the Jersey area and working for big companies. The companies know they are undocumented but still employ them. Look for a job, save money and talk to an immigration lawyer.
Whatever you do please don't come to Nigeria. You will be totally lost. The society has changed from 21yrs ago.

In January 22 I also got stamped but by September when I returned they’d stopped

I got stamped in at Philadelphia last year. Stamp or no stamp is not something anyone should worry about.

Good morning everyone. Please I need your help. We applied for visa renewal under interview waiver as a family. We all qualified for interview waiver. My husband and I were granted visa but my daughter was refused under 221g. She was asked to schedule another interview. Which we have done. Question is, we don't know if it's a regular or physical interview or drop off. The confirmation appointment letter is similar to the interview waiver.
Experienced people in the house, can you please throw more light on this. Thank you.





It will be a physical interview. I want to assume your daughter is now a teenager. If yes, then it is solely for finger printing. That's what happens when they get to that age. They refuse them with 221g then ask them to come in for interview. It is usually for finger print.

Unless there is something else that cropped up during your previous visits.

Any tips on get passport picture to meet ICAO standard
I'm doing application for a relative and I'm still getting head tilt error.

I don tire.
The relative is elderly so trying to get them to go to a studio to do this is kinda hard besides it doesn't guarantee I won't have the same issue so I want to work with the photo I have

You don't have an option. Studio pic is usually better. Then you compress and upload.

Good morning all.

Is it good to combine more than one good reason during a USA interview?

My primary motivation stems from the critical health condition of my father, currently residing at my sister's residence, where my dad has been in a coma for several weeks. Although he is now in the process of recovery, I am compelled to visit him as we believe that my presence will contribute significantly to his emotional well-being, thereby expediting his recuperation.

Furthermore, I plan to accompany my visit with the necessary documentation, including the hospital medical report from the US hospital and, if possible, an invitation report from my sister.


Also, I have a couple of other programs with evidence; like Birthday party invitations and business conferences, including seeking a good hospital to take care of my wife's leg, who has a knee fracture. All the above are with evidence.


House I wouldn't know if the above is a good present and reasonable to the VO during my interview coming up soonest

All valid reasons. You also need to have strong funding for your wife's medical care. If not don't mention it.

My wife delivered through CS and she needs some help urgently

First never mention omugwo as trip plan. She will be denied!!!
She can only apply for visit, unfortunately she is not qualified for expedited visa application. She can only apply for regular appointment. Dates are as far as 2025 now.

You guys have to wing it for now. She should look for Nigerian nannies there to help out.

You were given a visiting visa? I never attempted it as I was told that having an immigrant petition will lead to a refusal.

I've waited 11 years, I believe I still have another 10 years. Thank God, my life here is pretty ok, so either way, I don't mind.

It doesn't stop you from getting a visa.

To whose account?
Why did the embassy gv me visa on same bill I paid

Rules change. I don't know how you can do this but I know someone has done it here. You can also try to think back to the first rejection. Something must have triggered the refusal. The only thing I can think of is the bill. It is too low for a non citizen. Hopefully experienced mothers will tell you what to do.

Your bill was heavily subsidised. Find a way to pay the balance.

However, the name change is still yet to reflect, and I still can't register for nysc.

Thanks so much. No, she is not coming for Omugwo. She intends to stay for 2-3 months and then go back, until next time she can visit again. Yes I provided family pictures. Does she need my bank statements to show I will be providing for her expenses.

She doesn't need it. You can still give her if you wish. Their concern is to make sure she comes back.

Good day everyone, please I am a LPR in the US and applied b1/b2 visa for my 64 yrs old mum. Her interview is early next month. Pls what are the necessary things for her to go with?. have provided her with some already. And what kind of questions can she get asked? Is there a translator at the Lagos embassy for Igbo language? She speaks and understands English but not so fluent. Thank you

Most VO's speak a Nigerian language. There will always be an interpreter. I hope she's not going for omugwu? Most mothers that go for omugwo overstay. They don't like it. She shouldn't lie though. She should only answer yes if asked if thats what she's going for. There's nothing much, they might need her to prove the relationship between you two. Let her take some family pics in case.

If the no phone policy was because of porn, but access to the boldest Apps is allowed then the idea is defeated! Those boldest sites has a huge number of porn videos.

Until the person is caught. They have a very serious disciplinary panel. Nobody wants to risk expulsion or extra year. They do not care about family background. Rules are rules and must not be disobeyed. Everyone is given a handbook to read and sign before resumption. So people going there actually know the rules and are OK with it. The school has a mix of Christians, Muslims and atheists. They are not complaining. Na state uni and fed uni students are complaining for them. These guys are fully focused on their academics.

This is a University and not a secondary school why restrict the children from phones and laptops and also from talking to their parents?

Well I wish them well all those that can send their kids and wards to a glorified jail all in the name of quality education.

Please ignore the publication. They use tabs and laptops. Students speak with their parents DAILY!! Each student is given 50gb for Internet activity.
It is funny how people complaining on this thread are not CU students or Alumni. A school Muslims also choose and people are on this thread tearing themselves up. Internet access is the least of their problems. The major issue are the other rules. No romantic interactions, must attend some chapel services or programs, rigorous academic program etc.

A school environment is a simpler example of the larger society and history has proven that one of the foremost things abusers do is to disconnect their victims from the outside world or closely monitor their communication with others.

Think of why the Supreme Leader of North Korea banned phones in the country.

The major reason they're denied phones is because of their authoritarian founder and totalitarian board. The students are disconnected from any support system outside the environment. For example, If a lecturer slaps a student, there would be no recording. Students will also be oblivious of what is going on in other schools and would not be emboldened to ask for better welfare.

If students were allowed to use phones, we'd know the true status of the mass poisoning that has been reported. However, since there are no phones, any report the school management issues to the public is final- exactly what North Korea would do.

Dictatorship should not be supported. That is why we're lending out our voices to the students who deserve better.

Stop being bitter. CU is the best private university in Nigeria. Also one of the top three uni in Nigeria.
