[quote author=Rhonah post=97736357]By "given" you mean that is the earliest date or you chose the March 21st yourself... whichever case, if you can possibly hold on a little longer earlier dates may show up and you can request for resumption extension from your school which is like additional one week or two. [/quote I choose the available date. Thank you for the prompt respond]

But when I check my sevis status is still active. What do I do now pls. Very urgent pls. Note from the same school cos I was denied this spring

Thanks a million. Is still very valid .just want to know if it will still be valid till the appointment date

bigfrancis21:
Visit www.fmjfee.com, enter your details and see if the previous SEVIS fee payment is still valid/paid. If it is and your current SEVIS number is different, you may request to transfer your SEVIS payment from the previous SEVIS number to the current number. Give it a few days and hope that your request is approved.

December 18 and 21 dates are currently open in Abuja, for those yet to book a date.

Good morning all, pls I need an urgent assistant, i paid for sevis last year Nov, and am going for another appointments on any rechedule date. My question is this, do I need to pay for another sevis or is the previous one still active?? Very urgent pls

Sunmboo:
Visa approved
Interview date: Dec 17, 2019
Location: US consulate office, Lagos.
University applied: North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, Greensboro
Course: MSc Natural Resources/Conservation with $24,000 Research Assistantship. Bal ($7000)
Travel history: UK, US (twice), Australia, France, Ghana, Benin

Had the interview at window 8 (can’t really remember the number, but I am sure it was the last window). Everyone before me was denied including a couple who had been to US not less than 3 times. The consulate officer on window 4 was just denying people except extremely old people.

The interview went thus;
VO: Good morning
Me: Good morning

VO: Pass me your i20 and passport
Me: passed the i20 and passport

VO: Scan your right four fingers (excluding the thumb)
Me: I did just that

VO then typed in my document id on his system and began to make funny sounds with his mouth for like 10secs………. then, he faced me and asked

VO: why did you want to go to the US?
Me: I would like to go to the US for my post graduate program in Natural Resources/Conservation in the department of Agriculture and Environmental System at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical (NCAT) State University, Greensboro.

VO then concentrated on tying speedily on his system for many seconds. I was just thinking, what is going on here? Then he faced me again and continued

VO: why did you choose this course?
Me: I chose this course because the first postgrad program I had wasn’t thorough enough (I had already studied masters in the UK). The research methodology was qualitative, and I wanted something quantitative. And I’ve had several discussions with Dr ******** who is the head of the graduate studies in the department at NCAT. He has assured me of getting what I want. More so, I have gone through the curriculum of the course and I could see that they are wider enough in scope to deliver what I want.

VO nodding his head as I was speaking.

Believe me, in my mind, I was already thinking that all I’ve said doesn’t really answer the question. I was just tensed with the fact that the fate of all my stress on getting the admission and securing the fund would be determined in few minutes.


VO: what will you be doing after this program?
Me: I just said PhD. Then I continued by saying, I am currently in contact with **** university and ******* research organisation in New Zealand to take up a project in Nigeria towards the award of my PhD.

VO was just nodding

VO: Who will be sponsoring you?
Me: I just answered my uncle, then paused for like 5 secs because I never wanted that question as it raises concerns from what I’ve observed in visa interview trends. After pausing for a while, I continued by saying he owns an integrated farm after he retired as a bank manager some years back. (This was not how I planned to give my response)

VO: But you have an assistantship
Me: (I had already forgotten to mention this. I thought in my mind that it’s been discussed). So, I quickly said yes, I have a full graduate research assistantship.


Then VO started typing profusely till he said today, we are going to issue your visa. At that point, I wasn’t even interested in anything he was saying after as I was too glad that I just wanted to leave to call my loved ones.


I have really learnt a lot on this group and that is the reason I am providing this transcript as it would help others in one or two ways.

congratulation. we are going to same university by God grace pls beep me on Instagram akwete85 make we relate pls
