Hi


Please if I’m yet to upload my documents on TLS, can I change my appointment date? Or do I have to pay again?

Please help

Thanks that is what I will do

giselle237:
download from your mobile app and submit

It was self service I did and yes I can download it from the app and print. It was someone that was making it sound like I must get it from the bank. Thanks for this. I will use the downloaded one.

Good luck to us all

Thegamingorca:
Is it self upload or assisted service you booked for?

Don't you have a bank app? Download the bank statement from your app and go to café and print

Please for those that went for biometrics, was it the official statement from the bank branch you went with?

Reason I'm asking this. I use fidelity and there's an option to send statement to the embassy. Does this suffice or I have to get it from the bank. My date is Tuesday and I can't get the physical statement on Monday as it is a public holiday.

Or is there an option to push my date forward

The site is working now. I just booked successfully

On their site, go to menu, click help, search for payment, click how can I pay for services onsite at the visa centre, click more information, fill the form and submit.

steadyMoving22:
Trying to locate the form on their site, any lead on how to locate it ?

Please, what email address did you send to or was it directly on their site?

Ttosssss:
I gave up on the website a few minutes ago and said let me check my email because I sent them a query yesterday next thing I saw was confirmation email for my appointment on Tuesday. You can try now because I guess they’ve fixed whatever that was.

It still didn’t ask me to pay even if it’s a premium appointment. I guess it’s because payment is onsite.

MayoDebz:
Has anyone who experienced payment error on TLS site been able to pay for biometric appointment? I tried several times yesterday and this morning but I am still getting the same payment challenge.

I've been getting this error since yesterday. I don't know what's wrong. Have you been able to pay?

Good morning everyone.

Experts in the house, please I’ve been denied emergency request twice. Though I applied for visa in December and got denied. I tried to reapply again in June(this time around I chose lagos) My program starts 22, August, 2022. I applied for emergency within the 60 days timeline but was still denied. Date given to me is in February.

Please what is the next line of action. Please help. Do I need to apply for emergency again? Or do I have to pay the visa fee again and wait for available dates closeby?

I will appreciate all advice given.

Jsadetokunbo:
Your admission letter should be included, if you're going for your masters, add your BSc certificate and if PhD add your Masters certificate instead of BSc

Thanks. So I should go ahead to reapply for another emergency?

Jsadetokunbo:
What are the documents you submitted

I-20
SEVIS
DS-160

Good morning all.

Please I applied for emergency date in Lagos and was denied. I think June 22nd will be the start of my 60 days before start of school. My school resumes 22nd august.

Should I wait till the last week of June to reapply for emergency? I already have April 2023 appointment.

Is it possible to fill a new ds160 and apply to abuja instead? Will I need to pay a new visa fee?

Please assist.

Thanks

Doesn't affect anything.

Please I was denied in December last year but I am trying to reapply.

It keeps showing "no dates available" when I select previously refused

Should I select the other option that says "Regular" and will this affect anything?

I am trying to apply in lagos

Hello,

Please, my question is about sponsoring.

If my sister in the US is the sponsor and she has transferred the money into my account do I still need to mention her or I should just collect her account statement. Please which one will be good to go with.. thanks

The account statement you are carrying must be the one of your sponsor.

If you are sponsoring yourself, carry your own account.

If your sister is the sponsor, carry hers.

So whoever has the 'money' and whoever's account the money is in, is your sponsor

Neyopumpy:
For a start, I am new to this part of nairaland. I just stumbled upon this part in my quest to get answers to some questions bothering me.
I applied for a student visa appointment today and the date given to me was June 29, 2023.
The problem is that my school resumes on August 8, 2022.
Now, to the whole house, these are my questions:
1. Can I reschedule my Visa appointment to a date earlier before my school resumption date? If yes, please how?
2. Am yet to pay my SEVIS fee, will it affect my seeking for an early appointment date?
3. Can I pay my SEVIS fee using my local bank account?
4. Is the SEVIS fee refundable if visa is denied?
Please I will so much appreciate it if someone can be of help in answering these questions bothering me.
Note: I will also like to join the Lagos visa WhatsApp group to be more updated. My number is 08037639269.

Let me answer to the best of my knowledge

1. Yes you can, when you log in to the portal you will see the request emergency date option. But you will need to attach your SEVIS, DS-160 and I20 docs
2. Yes, your SEVIS must be paid
3. No you can't. Get someone in the US to assist you or contact these VESTI guys.
4. It is non-refundable. However, SEVIS is valid for a year, so you can keep using same SEVIS to reapply for the space of one year.

Hi,

So I was denied the F1 visa in December at Abuja. I want to know how soon I can apply again. I deferred my admission to August 2022. Also can I still use a sponsor’s account or I have to use mine this time around?

Also, On my previous DS 160 I filled that I didn’t have relatives in the US. When I submitted was when I remembered I had distant cousins there. The V.O asked me this question twice and I kept responding I didn’t have relatives in the U.S as I had to stick with what was on my DS 160. Is it now safe to fill it as ‘yes’ in the new one I will be doing? Won’t that be a problem? Please assist. Thanks

Chynwem:

Status- Denied, First Attempt, Abuja
COA- $44k, no funding
Bald white Vo, Dec 15th

Vo: I can see this is a master’s program.
Me: Yes it is
Vo: Do you have relatives in the US?
Me: No, My relatives are here in Nigeria
Vo: Have you travelled to the US before?
Me: I have not had a reason to, this will be my first time.
VO: Who is sponsoring your trip?
Me: My Uncle….*VO cuts in*
VO: What does he do?
Me: He’s the owner of bla bla bla bla.
VO: Ok, Do you have any relatives in the US?
Me: I don’t , all my relatives are here in Nigeria.
VO: *mumbling some things and reaching out for blue paper*

So here’s the thing. While filling out my DS-160. I selected ‘No’ for the relatives in US section. It was after I submitted that it dawned on me that I have distant cousins that I don’t even remember because I’ve not had such relationship with them. I don’t even know their names.
Notice from the above that he asked me that question twice! Well I don’t know what the exact reason is, I guess it was the funding.

I had to defer my admission to fall 2022. In the hopes that I’d get some sort of funding from the school
