ferdimako: From what am seeing, we can still pay online via that website.Since we are in Jos, paying online will be the best and cuff the agent thing.But Nigeria no dey to choose b4 payment oh.I will call wakanow.com on Monday.

Pls try and get my post well. I didn't book from wakanow.com, i only checked their site to av an idea of the cheap and affordable airlines and wen i did i saw dat emirate was around 147k plus on wakanow.com so i went directly to emirate office(not agent) and i got it for 150k plus

missannie: "Emirates Airlines" wow!!! Tht's 9ice. But is it a direct flight or stop-over Cus am heading to TEXAS, THE LONE STAR STATE OF US, too.

It's a one way ticket and there's gonna be stop over @ Dubai but it's just 4 a little while before connecting to Houston. I didn't use agent @ all... I went straight to emirates airline office after checking on www.wakanow.com and discover it's d cheapest 4now. Another factor that helped is dat i booked for three weeks down meaning i'll be travelling in three weeks tym.

Remmy488: K u've called dt guy I gave u his contact

No i didn't... Thanks

Finally i gat my air ticket booked wit emirates airlines @ d rate of 150,619 naira per person. TEXAS, THE LONE STAR STATE OF US, EXPECT ME AND MY WIFEY SOON. Houston is our port of entry.

Remmy488: I dnt knw ao it is done in ur sku, bt in my own sku {OAU} apart from dt sealed and addressed one,I was also gven a copy whch look like a photocopy. Wen u get there I'm sure u will b gven ok

U said it looked lyk a photocopy. Just want to know if it also has original stamp or photocopied one. Thanks

I got to the embassy, at about 5:10am and waited till they called in 6.30 non-immigrant and 7.00am immigrant visas and did the normal process of document submission and got in to pay my visa fee and then I sat waiting on my number to be called.
To be honest I cannot remember the window I was called to after a couple of hours but behold it was this cute and nice gentleman that the lord sent and he started with the interview.
CO: Are you Ata......

CO: Please sign your DSP form, did the oath taking and finger print stuff...
ME: Did all required.
CO: what's your highest qualification?
ME: BA ........
CO: What year did you finish?
ME: Told him the exact year while he was going thru as I answered each question.
CO: What have you been doing Since you graduated?
ME: Told him, couldn't get a job so I worked with my mum and eventually opened a boutique, made him understand I wore pretty much what I sell so he smiled.
CO: Have you served the NYSC?
ME: Yes I have and told him what year.
CO: What was your primary assignment about?
ME: Told him was secretary to the local government between my year of service and my duties and he smiled as usual.
CO: I will give you ur visas, brings out 2 forms circles one part for visa collection and the other for USCIS payment.
ME: Thank you.

Hi broda... How much did u book emirate and how did u go about the booking? I also guess Texas is ur POE? Already in Lagos and planning to go for my booking and emirate is also on my mind. About the visa card, can it be issued in nigeria or is it until one gets to US before one gets it? Thanks

jidex001: From wes.org . They said transcripts has to be sent directly to WES by the institutions attended (http://www.wes.org/required/index.asp) and most school don't give out transcripts to student. how do you think that could be possible for him to make photocopies

and also these a form to be filled. which has to be attached with the transcript (place the form and academic record in an envelope, sign and seal the envelope across the back flap, and send it directly to World Education Services at one of the addresses below)

ok thanks. I've gotten d address but how about the payment of the evaluation fees? At what stage will i pay it and how do i do dat?

@Loconzo00 and Simayanke4real, CONGRATULATIONS and welcome to d US of A. @Loveshowsgirl1, as God went before d israelite in d wilderness, so will He go before u to d embassy. Go and be highly favoured. @Nero-xp, where's ur POE, how much did u book emirate and where did u do d booking? My POE is Houston Texas, i'm already in Lagos for booking and emirate is also on my mind. Thanks

ferdimako: Use an address here in Nigeria and go there to pick it up.Make a photocopy and certify before u send to WES.

Thanks for ur prompt reply. God less...

Hi gurus, just thought of something now. Can transcript be addressed as 'TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN'?

Hi pals... Going to my former sch to get my transcript but it won't be issued if i don't provide where it will be addressed, i'm aware of this cuz i had d same prob sometimes ago wen i requested for it. Where do u guys advice i address it to? Just want to av it wit me in case of any unforeseen circumstance in US dat will require d need of my transcript. Will it be ideal if i address it to WORLD EDUCATION SERVICES? If it's ideal, do anyone knows their official address? I've searched thru their website but couldn't lay my hands on their address. Thanks.
