People of God, I didn't want to post anything about this very weird experience of mine initially but I thought Bleep it, just share it with these people, they've been good to you. They can learn ( or unlearn as the case may be). So here goes the event:

The VO: Next
Me: I walked up to him. He even greeted me first and I responded appropriately.
VO: Please pass your documents and passport
(I forwarded them to him)
VO: He starts typing. He typed and typed and typed and typed.
Me: I waited patiently initially but then after 30 seconds of typing without any verbal interaction I started some shifting movements to get his attention.
VO: So I can see here you have a graduate assistantship award.
Me: Yes, but it's actually a Teaching Assistantship that comes with... (VO cuts me here)
VO: It's OK and continues typing.
Me: At this point I was getting worried. In my mind I was begging him : please ask me something, anything.. Pleaseeee. I have waited 3 months to secure this date.. Please look at meeeeee. (Crying inside)
VO: (Coughs) Unfortunately at this time you're not eligible for a visa but you may apply at a later date. ( passes the dreaded blue paper)

People of God, I was stunned. Like am I dreaming? What just happened. All my mock interview preparations and sleepless nights wasted.

Let me give you all the background. My school resumed classes for fall on August 23. I told the school I couldn't secure a date o, that I want to defer to January 2022. The school say I should calm down, they will allow all international students to resume late until September 20. As a proof of that extension, the school issued me a new i20 with this new information written in all CAPS in the remark section of the i20: ​"WE WILL ALLOW THIS STUDENT RESUME LATE UP TO SEPTEMBER 20" .
In addition, they also issued me a letter to present at the embassy and at point of entry into the United States.
But as you can all see, I didn't say pim at the embassy today. I have not fully comprehended this experience.

Moral lesson: No matter how qualified you think you are or how packaged your documents are or how sharpened your tongue is, pray for good luck�. I was very very unlucky today but I still thank God.

The problem is from your DS-160 or profile! Something must have raised a red flag on their system

If I may ask, do you have an relative or family in the USA that absconded after getting visa ?

Did you fill your DS-160 yourself ? Hope you didn’t make use of agent that might have filled in wrong or implicating info ?

Also, what is the name of your school ? I learnt some schools are blacklisted

Age of account ?

And what is the username?

Hmnnn I noticed too, he didn’t tell us his precise job so as to know the correlation, anyways we appreciate the effort.
Is it possible to get visa and still be turned back at port of entry?

Yes, people get turned back. It happens

Search for a thread on this forum

“Share your USA port of entry (POE) stories”

And you can see some instances

emmanuelle27:
E never reach like that boss

They come to this thread and get helpful Information to secure the US visa

But once they secure it, they are now stingy with information and don’t want others to benefit

BabsofAbj247:
Visa approved.

VO: What school are you going to?
Me: Stated the name of my school
VO: How many schools did you apply to?
Me: Told him the schools I applied to
VO: What program are you going for?
Me: Stated my program (Masters)
VO: What do you intend to use the program for?
Me: Upon the completion of my program, I intend to come back to Nigeria to focus on at my company. In addition, I intend to use the knowledge obtained from my masters to improve my start-up.
VO: What do you do currently?
Me: Explained in detail the nature of my job and the companies I have worked with
VO: Wow
VO: How do you intend to fund the program, I can see you got some scholarship?
Me: I would be using my savings and MPOWER. In addition, my uncle would provide financial assistance.
VO: What does your uncle do:
Me: Told VO the companies my uncle own
VO: I would be approving your VISA blah blah blah

It is very important to know what you have on your DS-160 form. While I was talking about the things I do for my Company, the VO kept looking at the screen to verify what I said.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

Next time don’t post transcripts if you won’t post any helpful or relevant information

Create War in Nigeria. Ask Buhari and his Bamdit brothers to Start what they are planning so that 120million people can travel to the US undocumented… We can then hail the US once again.

You don’t get my point

My point is: the US has no reason to deny someone F1 visa

After the person has gotten admitted to a US institution, paid acceptance fee, paid SEVIS, paid visa fee, etc

It’s just wickedness to be honest

US and UK are the most wicked countries in the world.

Now they are evacuating Afghans from the Taliban ridden Afghanistan, giving them free trip to their countries without documentation, and without visa.

This shows that the US and UK has the capability and capacity of taking in a lot of people into their country, because there is enough space.

So what is the need or reason of denying Nigerians visa to go to school, people who are properly documented and have paid all necessary fees, just going for studies. You deny them out of shear pride and wickedness.

Good day my people

Oga, I don't have your Instagram Account. What happened to you happens with Instagram and Facebook accounts. I learned that like two months back when a friend bought an Instagram account and It was locked hours later, after he was done editing the account details.


And How can I have access to the account when you already changed the login details?
Again, I do not have access to the account and The account being blocked have nothing to do with me.

Then reply my message on WhatsApp

allandutch:
You reached out?! Are you fūcking kidding me?
We had a transaction 10 months ago... Since then, no messages from you before today, 12:50pm. You couldn't even wait for me to respond.

And you call that reaching out? Why didn't you message me immediately the account was locked?

Give me back access to my account and this matter will end.

allandutch:
As displayed in the picture, this happened last year September. He didn't contact me at all to tell me what happened, maybe I could be of help.

Only for him to create a thread 10 months later posting my details online and labeling me a Scammer when I'm not even aware that the account was locked.



Well, I was wondering why I received a message, supposedly from Facebook, asking me to follow a link to restore my instagram account. I even thought the message was about current instagram account i use, I quickly check and the account was fine so i ignored the message.

The moment after I sold the account, i cleared the account data from all I use. See, Whatever happened to the account happened on your side. It has nothing to do with me.

Why are you not responding to your WhatsApp messages?

This is not how to do business

without:
Why do pple Instagram account, open one.

NB: The account did not even have followers, only about 70 followers or so.

I only bought the account from Allandutch, because he said it was an old account of 3 years ago and I needed it to run Instagram ads, because Instagram don’t allow new accounts run Ads successfully, and they ban you at will.

allandutch:
Woah, What the fūck is this?

Yeah, I sold someone an instagram account on Nairaland for 3k some months back and since then I haven't access the instagram account. If not for this mention, I've completely forgot about the IG account.

And did you even bother to tell me about what happened before you came here to label me a scammer?

The pictures show the last notifications I received about the account, which shows clearly activities from your end. I don't use an IPhone and I'm not in Lagos.

Stop fooling yourself. I reached out to Instagram support and they said the original owner reclaimed the account like it was hacked or something like that.

I reached out to you on WhatsApp, I got no response.

Give me back access to my Instagram account which I paid for and this thread will be deleted.

Matter resolved

Case in progress
