Brown2Green:
Boss I hail

Abeg which state you dey?

You got me on this one sharwama lol. Congratulations in advance anyways

Hello Everyone,
I got my Visa approve Dec 2017 I would say it's been a year and half I have been in the US, and God so good it hasn't been that easy. Shout out to everyone that recently got their Visa approved, Sharwama, Samdgreat2011 and everyone else.

Shout out to Lagosismyhome, Brown2Green, Time2win, Walspring and gosh I miss Twoods. You guys have been awesome because with how busy things get in the US and u still make out time to help others, God bless u guys.

And to the other applicants out there, Abeg! Make una try to get some sort of Assistantship, GA, TA or anything before applying. Even if ya papa be Dangote, paying tuition as an international student doesnt come cheap. It's not easy to drop that money and the VOs know this. Things ain't cheap in the US as no one will spare u a dime. So guys plan things well before you travel.

I wish all the recently approved a safe journey to Trumpland.

Thanks ma'am, I carried it in moderation, currently at Qatar waiting for my connecting flight to US

LagosismyHome:
If you are carrying in moderation that fine but if you are carrying a lot then that raises flags . Paracetamol, and Ibuprofen dont need prescription in the USA

So in everything do it in moderation .

Thanks, but what if I don't have doctor's prescription??

Osinachi1:
Allowed, but declare them.

According to http://traveltips.usatoday.com/rules-flying-prescription-drugs-63212.html

Pls I need an answer urgently guys, Abeg oo

lovelyonps:
Hello guys, please would I be allowed to take medications like Paracetamol, flagly, Ibuprofen and so on with me as I travel? Pls guys, reply asap as my flight is this morning

Hello guys, please would I be allowed to take medications like Paracetamol, flagly, Ibuprofen and so on with me as I travel? Pls guys, reply asap as my flight is this morning

Thanks a bunch

Teedawg:
no you do not need to declare 750... And you're good to go with your food stuff those you might have to declare

Good morning guys, as a student, If I am carrying $750 with me, do I have to declare it? And also, I hope I will be allowed to carry food stuffs like Egusi, dry pepper, cray fish, dried locust beans and so on

So what do you propose I do concerning getting a cheaper flight?

HiredGames:
Fixed!!!

Flights could be as cheap as N312K if you leave during/before the holidays. If you want to "merry" and have a good family time, just know it's going to cost you some extra solid N200K.

Thanks very much, but will I not have issues at the poe at JFK as my school is in Texas ?

omoluabiguy:
Check out air maroc on wakanow. It’ll fly you to JFK New York, and you can either use the greyhound or local flight to Texas

Please guys, I need help with cheap flights from Lagos to Dallas Texas, as my school resumes Jan 8th. I have to take off from Lagos Jan 6th. Please!!

Yes o, na standing

Messibliss207:
wow! Congrats. You mean we will stand while being interviewed

Thanks a bunch, am a lady tho

jerrypeacelinks:
congrats bro. your interview was smooth and swift. Congrats once again and may God in His infinity mercies bless your journey

I had my visa interview today 6th DEC, and o boy! The screening was stressful. Well I will say it was just the grace of God I had tho, cos those Vos weren’t smiling.

And please, for first timers like me, have it in mind that you have to stand throughout the interview, I have always thought it was like a sitting kinda setting .
Anyways, My interview went like this…

Me: Good morning
Vo: Good morning, pass your passport, sevis receipt and i20 pls
Me: Here they are
Vo: So ure going to…
Me: ( I completed it for him) STMUNI San Antonio Texas.
Vo: (Nodding) for a Masters of Bachelors degree
Me: MA in Communication studies
Vo: What’s your highest education
Me: I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Mass communication
Vo: How did you hear about this school (now his looks were intense)
Me: well, STMUNI was recommended to me by my mentor who was my lecturer during my undergraduate studies, and he is an alumnus of the sch.
Vo: how many schools did you apply to
Me: 3 universities.. STMUNI, Tarleton state uni , uni of Missouri Kansas city
Vo: How many offered you admission
Me: 2…. STMUNI and uni of Missouri, Tarleton state uni is still pending
Vo: (nodding) so why chose STMUNI
Me: STMUNI course curriculum aligns with my career plan, that is, they offer communication studies with concentration in media, Public relations and organizational communication
Vo: Did u write any test
Me: I wrote GRE
Vo: what was your score
Me: I told him ( he nodded)
Vo: (Nodding) so who would be your sponsor
Me: My Father… oh I mean my daddy
Vo: smiling. What does he do for a living
Me: I told him
Vo: Have u ever been out if Nigeria ( He flips tru my passport)
Me: No, I haven’t had a reason to until now

He typed for like 3-4 minutes, then passed me the white paper circled with the collection location and my i20, u will be needing it at the Poe, bla bla bla.

I’ll say its just the grace of God. Nairaland helped me and prepared my own personal transcript, and I conducted a mock interview with myself facing the mirror everyday just to build my confidence.

Visa just got approved... I'll be loading my transcript soon

I have the same issue too, and my interview is tomorrow, I plan on leaving it like that then explain if asked at the interview, I'll carry my bacheler's certificate with me, just in case tho.

Messibliss207:
Hello house, I need help asap.
While filling my ds160, I didn't include my past education (didn't see space for that) just input my job only. I have BA Engliah language and now going for Bsc Computer Information Systems. I've done a couple of short IT courses and I currently work in an IT firm. Do I have to fill out another DS to show my previous education or what..?

Mine is on the 6th of Dec, I am hoping for God's blessings.

I would, but mine is on Thursday, 6th April
