Please does anyone know how the new VISA validity date is determined with the new policy? Will your VISA validity be based on the date of your visa approval or the date of travel. For example if my interview is in August but I plan to travel in December, will my validity start from August or start from December? |
Thank you so much for providing clarity. Option 10 is the use case for me here. My parents are visiting, so I want to make sure all the required documents are covered, and to also have some transcripts in hand. Efetobore1980: |
Hello friends. Does anyone know the list of all the required documents for an interview Visa Office? Also, can anyone provide a document with past/previous VISA interview transcripts? And if there is a WhatsApp group I would love to join also, please feel free to message me directly. |
Any group suggestions for tracking interview dates? |
Visa Approved Fri, Jan 15. 8:00 am Me: Good Morning VO: Can I have your I-20 and passport, please? Me: (Hands over required documents) VO: Why are you going to the US Me: To pursue a Masters degree in Information science at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock VO: (Takes a look at my I-20).

Me: I will be working as a Software Developer under the dept, on a social media analytics tool as part of a project called COSMOS VO: Is the funding for a semester or the entire program? Me: It's full funding that covers my tuition and offers monthly stipends to the tune of Bleep amount(Me trying to play safe as the assistantship offer is renewed every semester based on performance. It can actually be terminated, just like a regular job offer, cos that's what it is) VO: (Nods head in unison)Why are you taking this course? Me: I'm taking this course from a problem-solving perspective, from my years of experience working as a Product Manager, I have spotted a data problem in diverse sectors in Nigeria, finance, governance etc. I intend to use the skills and knowledge gained from this course to build a solution around this(I probably mentioned some examples like credit rating and insurance but let's keep it short) VO: Are you married? Me: No VO: Have you traveled outside of Nigeria? Me: No VO: You don't have any problems, I will be approving your VISA. Take your(inaudible) Summary: It seemed like a good day at the Embassy, I'm not particularly sure if people got approved or denied as I wasn't paying too much attention. But the VO seemed nice, and from the tone I was hearing over the speakers, they all sounded friendly enough to approve VISAs. Thanks to everyone that shared their transcripts, God bless you. |
Good day guys. Pls can you have your COVID test about a week before you travel. Or is there a requirement that states a specific duration before traveling, when it should be done |
Thanks. If I may ask, in what medical center did you take the test and how much did it cost? Nwaada: |
Has anyone here recently traveled to the USA? I would like to know if there were any COVID-19 test requirements before your flight or on arrival and how you went about it. Please indicate cost implications also. |
I am going to UALR majorstark: |
Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do about it. Just reach out to your school and inform them. My school has given me till Feb 2nd to resume campus. The semester starts Jan 12th and my interview was moved to Jan 15th so I'd probably miss early registration and some classes but what can mans do? We just gotta roll with it. Emeritusseun: |
I got the email 4 times within the space of an hour. It really looks sus AkinOseni: |
Tjayyy2406:My interview for next Friday too also got rescheduled for Jan 15th. A friend's interview for Friday also got rescheduled for Jan 6th. What is this sorcery? |
First one was automatically canceled cos I rescheduled for an earlier date after I didn't get a response from them for about a week. Do you know when these new dates usually appear? Chonco: |
Do you have an idea when these dates usually become available? Chonco: |
I already booked an emergency request with it but then they wanted me to book another date and then request another emergency appointment. But this meant I had to pay another fee. Chonco: |
Paid the MRV fee twice. They denied the emergency request still. It's based on the capacity they can handle right now. They just sent me this Chonco:

Asiwaju101:Have you been able to book another date? |
sonofakin:Yes. That was the instruction from the Consulate but I can't reschedule or request an expedited appointment, I can only cancel |
Youngstown:Any luck @Youngstown? I called them, they said I should send an email. Below is their response to my email. I am currently trying to call them again as I have asked someone to check if June 19th is still available and it isn't so I don't want to jump to pay another fee.
