rickkid: Nobody is 'giving' you anything. You wouldn't be able to afford it anyway. Wait till somebody has used it like slippers for 5 years, then go and beg them. Then they might 'give' you.

Anyway, everyone is entitled to an opinion.

So true..... it's allowed to have reservations pertaining things that have to do with we Nigerians and government; especially Federal Scholarship Board. those guys way no pure AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks @ mamacajah and uchetobi God bless you both

uchetobi:

Your dad needs to fill a ds160 form. Every applicant needs an individual form. He is not the same person as your mother na!

Fill a form for him and update accordingly

Thanks Uche, i appreciate

Good day house, i really need your advice.
My parents intend to spend their leave in the US, an aunt (my mom's sister) is the one inviting them over. My dad is to accompany my mom. My first question to the house is:
1) does my dad need to fill his own DS160 non immigrant form; as he is going as an a companion.

he didnt fill the DS160 online, because he was listed on my mom's DS160

with the confirmation number from my mom's application online we went on to make to make payment for both of them at GTB and got two reference numbers to book for an interview appointment next week.

opened a single profile using my mom's details, included my dad as well as her companion but we were required to put in a DS160 number, so we used the same number as the one used for my mom.

after choosing a date for interview; this notice showed up on the final confirmation page:
" PLEASE NOTE THAT ONE OR MORE OF THE DS-160 NUMBERS USED TO SCHEDULE THIS APPOINTMENT CAN NOT BE VALIDATED.
INCORRECT DS-160 NUMBERS MAY LEAD TO A DELAY IN BEING PROCESSED."

Please house what should we do?? should my dad go on to fill a DS160 form and should we cancel the old appointment and book a new one? what would be the implication of rescheduling? would we need to make new payments?

presiade: ^^You have to be nominated by FSB to get the award; no short-cut. Yeah, FSB selection is based on Federal character 'ish', but there is still some level of credibility in their selection. I attended the interview in 2012 and I narrowly missed the award partly due to my fault! I know friends who were awarded back then and are studying in the UK now... Just do your best and hope for the best. This year na war: "It's either I win the award, or I win the award" nothing less.

i'm with you on this

presiade: Commonwealth scholarship should open next week

Please is it possible to by-cut federal scholarship board and apply direct for the common wealth; i don't trust anything fsb and our Nigerian factor (no offence meant to my fellow Nigerians)

spawne: Well I know someone on this thread that said he had an Interview today. I even got an info from an Exxon staff saying they have contacted the successful guys for interview. On to the next thing.

all-right then, let's move on. congrats to all those who got the scholarships this year BEA, PTDF, NITDA, NAE, NNPC/ESSO.

For those of us moving on, is there any other known scholarship set for this year??
