Hello guys please is it true that visa interview dates are occupied till August so it's impossible to get an interview till August??

That's for B1/B2 (tourist) visa

brightdocare:
Everybody on this thread.. is trying to write like what I don't even know....

Nobody want to be straight forward with there writing anymore

hmmmm what did I even knw.

Okay, can you be straight forward then since no one wants to be?

mrkhaynoni:
Very true!

Okay, noted... But what could I have said?... Remember he said 'why are you going from 30 degrees to -14' not 'why did you choose these schools?'

Coloniel5000:
please i want to ask, if i use a different Statement of Account to get my acceptance letter from the school and for my Visa interview at the embassy, hope it's not a red flag?
secondly, please I need anyone who just recently received his/her acceptance letter and i-20 from any institution to please PM me @ Lordlugard50@gmail.com.

thanks

I think it depends on the date the soa was printed... It shouldn't be far apart from the date of the interview

gennylota:
perfect transcript, its non of your fault sweetheart. It's part of life. Try again and you will be issued your your visa. Much love

Thank you. Amen

Sorelee:
Abuja or Lagos embassy? if its the abuja embassy then i can relate. A friend of mine got recently denied at the Abuja embassy after having a good interview wth the VO (got denied after the VO throughly checked his SOA and was not satisfied with the Inflow and outflow) refire after 2 weeks at the Lagos embassy and got approval with the same SOA probably the VO wasnt satisfied with your SOA

It was Lagos...The soa was okay tho...yea he probably wasn't satisfied. Thanks anyways.

[quote author=mrkhaynoni post=66081975][/quote]Had my first degree in anatomy (I explained to him how I developed an interest for evs and How I took some elective courses in environmental chemistry etc)and the soa had enough money to pay for 3years of school, it's my dad's.it was Lagos embassy...

Hello guys, good morning... I'm very sad at the moment but I feel like someone might have something to say about my transcript and I would appreciate if you do.

VO: good morning, how're you? Pass your passport and i20

Me: morning sir, I passed them.

VO:where are you going

ME: University of Idaho, Moscow

VO:What are you going to study

ME: Masters of environmental science

VO: why this course?

ME: I developed an interest for evs during my undergraduate studies when I discovered the environment has a lot of effects on the human health,earning this degree would fortify me with the skills and qualifications to work with the fed ministry of environment and it's agencies I also plan on setting up an evironmental ...... He nodded and the He cut me

VO: which other schools did you apply to

ME:bemidji state university, Minnesota. Tuskegee university alamaba. Minot state uni North Dakota.

VO: he now smiled and said oh you want to go from 30 degrees Celsius to -14, I smiled too and said sometimes we all feel the need to change our environment sometimes... He laughed and said yeah that's true. It would be a nice change though. I smiled back.

VO: so have you travelled out of the country before?

ME: yes, to the UK twice and Dubai.... He checked my passport to confirm.

VO: did you take any tests?

ME: yes I took the GRE and IELTS and had a combined score of 305 and 7.5 respectively

VO: when did you graduate

ME: 2016

VO: did you have your nysc?

Me: yes I did ... He nodded and said oh okay

VO:are married? Any kids?

ME: no

VO: how will you pay for the first year of school?

ME: my dad is sponsoring me

VO: can I see a bank statement ?

Me: yes sir, and I gave him and he stared at the statement very well page by page.

VO: I'm sorry but you don't qualify for this visa at this time. Then gave me the blue paper.
The feeling was crazy especially having such a long conversation and you felt like you were flowing together.... But he didn't even ask about the program, or why I prefer the school or how I heard about the school. If I was shaking or stammering it would have been another case.i was looking at him eye to eye cos I've been there for a tourist visa before and was denied so I wasn't nervous or anything this time around, he didn't even talk about my previous denial so I don't think I have any bad record there or something. Please tell me what you think I should have done or if I answered wrongly to any questions... Thanks

Hello everyone,

I would like to know if I am supposed to print another statement of account few days before going to the embassy or just take the one I used in getting the I-20 (July-January)??

Please help a sister!

bee17:
am going there for my 1st degree, which have already been admitted to a school.
My school didn't ask me to write any exam before considering my admission.
so my question is...how am I going to tell the consular that my school didn't ask me to write any exam before they gave me an admission?

Can you tell me the name of the school please?

femi312:
Ask them if they can send it to someone in the US via regular mail and it takes 5days ,which is usually free and that person sends it to you using UPS tracking which takes about 3working days. You wont spend up to 30k but might be around 15k. Never let them send it to you with regular mail if you dont have enough time because it might get missing. Since you won't need the i20 until 2months, you can take a risk and let them send it through regular mail. If you dont get it after 1month, then you can go ahead and use the 30k service. Weight your options

Thank you... The thing is that I have only a few days to decide which one I want. They gave me only those two two options and said that if I don't pay for the fast shipping one then it means they will send it through regular mail automatically... I guess I'll just pay the money

qdamilola:
If I were you, I’ll pay the 30k and be safe...that 30k might even come with a tracking service...which would give you peace to know that your I-20 is almost with you

Hmm thanks... And yes it comes with a tracking service!

Hi guys
I need your advice on this please, my i20 is ready and my uni is telling me it's either I go through UEMS(a delivery service that makes the stuff arrive within a week) this option is about 30k naira or they send it through regular mail which would take four to six weeks or more and is free... So now the question is ,
Do you think regular mail would take that long or is it possible anything happens to the I-20 like getting missing or delayed for a very long time...do you feel they just want me to pay the money for the faster delivery? Should I just pay the 30k and be safe...Besides I won't be needing the i20 till about two months...

Hello guys please has anyone heard of cases where an applicant was denied because he applied for summer semester instead of spring or fall??

PLEASE HELP

Hello guys, this is a very great thread I must say... Been following for quite a while now even though I've been silent...
I need you guys advice please!!
I recently got admission to do my msc spring 2018 semester but the notification came in late so I was asked to defer to either summer or fall semester, this has got me thinking... When I contacted the school they said starting in summer is a great idea as long as some of my courses would be offered and this can help to speed up my education at the uni...but my question is that will they understand this at the embassy or should I just defer to fall(even though I would love to apply for summer though)
Thanks in anticipation
