Please has anyone had their interview days for nextweek being rescheduled to first week of January? I just got a mail and my interview was shifted from 28 December to 5 January and I'm wondering why?

Yes

chibertha:
Total expenses which includes but not limited to
Fees
Return ticket
Accommodation
Etc

Thanks for your response. So if I have a fully funded GA/TA, do I indicate the person/entity paying for the trip as "SELF" or the school paying me the salary?

Thanks.

Paragontek:
Good morning all.
Visa Approved in Abuja yesterday. Transcript soon!

In the DS-160 form, the question of "Person/Entity paying for your trip"

Does the trip means cost of study in USA or just the flight ticket and other expenses?

Posting one message again and again is called spamming. They have seen your message. Give them time to respond.

Tomison:
Could someone please tell me the mail I can use to send a message to the embassy

ConsularAbuja@state.gov

Lildairo:
Mine was denied last week, mailed them the following day and their decision was changed same day.

Already got a date. 23rd December.

Wow, good for you too.

Wish you Godspeed.

wahabaa:
You can only reschedule once with same MRV fee. So if you reschedule, then you would have exhausted the option to reschedule and the option won't be there anymore. However, I think when your emergency appointment is approved, the reschedule option will show up again even if it was previously exhausted. I peak only from my previous experience.

Bro, my emergency request is approved. If i select a date, say December 30. Can I still select another date (eg December 15) if it opens up? Without paying another money?

Emeritusseun:
Just got a mail. Emergency approved. Few minutes ago.
The earliest date is 28th December

Wow Good for you. I need a date earlier than that. My request was approved too. I will just keep checking. Please update here if you see any date on or before 19th.

@tomison @lildairo
Guys how far with your emergency requests?

Tomison:
Same here. Being waiting since Monday too�

I don't know if this is normal, or why it takes so long before response.

Tomison:
Please for those that sent a message to the embassy for an emergency appointment, has anyone gotten response from them?

No response yet o. Sent message since Monday night.

Meekun:
Please guys how can my transcript to sent to wes?

Urgent response please help out.

Depends on the school you finished from. Most courier services around campus are familiar with the procedure already. Just go to school and meet the UPS/DHL guys. They will collect the transcript on your behalf and send to wes - with your application number and other details.

Friedpotato:
from your emergency request?

No o, normal dates.

My emergency request is still pending.

For anyone interested, January 8 is available in Abuja now

Sasnigs:

Thanks my brother, maybe I will risk rescheduling to January 8. Hoping the reschedule option will show when my emergency request is approved.

zeeLady:
December dates are currently available at the Abuja embassy.

The earliest here is January 8.

Guys I have a question

My school said I must get a visa appointment by December 18th for me to retain my offer. When I scheduled earlier, the earliest I could get was January 20th, which I did. Then I requested for emergency appointment (still pending response).

My question is this, if I randomly login and see earlier dates like December 21, January 4 etc., and I reschedule. Will I still be able to reschedule to an earlier date if my emergency request is approved?

Thanks Thanks.

wahabaa:
Thank you for this. I got Dec 21. I am not sure it asked me if I was previously denied or not because I did it in a rush after seeing your message.

Lucky you.

Paragontek:
There are December dates in Abuja. You can login and check now.

The earliest I can see is January 4

AkinOseni:
Good morning all. Now I'm done catching my breath. Here goes the transcript:

Most importantly, pray, pray and pray as if that is the only thing you are taking to the interview. Our God is able. Alhamdulillah. I pray Allah, our God ease the affairs for those having their own interviews in coming days.

I tap into your blessings. Congratulations man.

Lildairo:
I applied on Monday. Reason is that no available date for emergency appointment

Eeyah, sorry man. I applied late on Monday too, for Abuja though. I have still not gotten a response. I guess yours was Lagos.
