Friends,

Do you have any idea on when PD date of November 14 for EBE-2 NIW category may become current. It appears it might be a long ride

Hi Friends,

Any idea on what a Trump presidency would mean for this category of visa. I am afraid that he might win the Nov'24 election. This is also because of his pronouncement on a clampdown on immigration, whether legal or illegal.

What are your thoughts, colleagues?

Maryeama:
Such an interesting read so far but I have not gotten what I need.
My husband's I-140 has been approved but he is in the US while I am in Nigeria with our daughter. What's the way to go. Am I doing consular processing for myself and our daughter? I have searched and searched but still not getting it. I'd appreciate any information that can help. Thank you.

Please help me with the link to the telegram channel too. My email is oyindamolamariam@gmail.com

Going through similar experience. It is difficult to start IVP, since he is based in the U.S. and you are in Nigeria. The best bet will be for him to do IVP in Nigeria. Another option could be to do the "Following-to-join-benefit. Please get first hand information from NVC through the public inquiry form.

Best wishes

Hi Colleagues,

It's been 25 days since filing I-140 Petition premium processing. Does it usually takes this much time? I thought PP is just 1-2 weeks

Case Approved. I am doing the IVP myself. Any one with insights or links I can go through

Hi Colleagues,

Colleagues,

I received a call from VFS that I should come and submit my passport. Please what does this mean? I have applied since December

Momotola16:
Please help... I applied for visitors visa since January via VFS Lagos. No response till now. Any idea on what I should do?

Sticker or evisa?

Madebyme:
I sent you a dm please

Holla,

I have not seen it, but I just to you now. Are you also in the WhatsApp group as me

Can someone advice what to do? I applied for a study visa since December, but no response yet. I have sent several emails to the embassy with no response.

Please, what do I do? I have a scholarship, and I am afraid of losing it.

Moyosoore2001:
Hello guys
Please I want to confirm if they have started approving study visa at the appropriate time or it still takes forever to come out
Hope to hear from someone soon
Thank you.

Please when did you apply? I applied December

This is already getting tiring. I have applied since December, but no news yet. Please has anyone who applied in December earlier date gotten a decision?

I applied for a PhD study visa

Holla,

Please any luck with December applicant for study visa. Is it advisable for one to apply for visiting while waiting for an outcome

Bursttt:
Mechango I need your contact, need to ask some questions

plus two seven seven three zero five seven five two one six

Bursttt:
UJ o but I guess it should be full now, so I’m looking for a private one.

UJ res is full now. What's your budget? Please avoid Brixton, though apartment are cheaper there. You may also check property24. Which department and programme will you doing? I could recommend some nice location, if I know your campus.

Colleagues,

Please I want to ask what the minimum amount one should have in his account when applying for a PhD study visa in SA

hunee:
550 rands daily. Send them a mail, reservations@airportinn.co.za or look them up on booking.com

Why not use property24 and search based on your preferred location. 550/day is on a high side oooh. This is 7k+/month

DrOA:
Sorry bro, there is nothing as free studying here in SA. You must have your money to study in any higher institution. *No mahala*

In case you need Rand here, let me know.

I disagree Baba, SA universities are almost at per with that of the U.S. You have a high chance of getting a funding, in as much as you are doing research. UKZN is also an example, you don't pay tuition fee

hunee:
Thank you. By what you are saying, it means it safe to fly to Johannesburg OR tambo and expect visa stamp if one meets criteria for entry. Ws your hotel booked and paid for. Or you presented just a dummy
?

I will just generally advice you have all the documents handy. The only questions immigration officers asked at the poe is "Where are you going to?" But I don't really know about for those visiting. I remember vividly that there were having issues with their system, so it was only one officer attending to e-visa. My generally advice, just print the hotel booking.


I hope you find this useful

hunee:
What you have raised is a very important issue. Information is key when traveling, if there is anyone here that has flown to SA recently via Johannesburg, OR TAMBO, they should openly tell us if there was a seperate queue for evisa passengers. Please give us an insight. I will be waiting to hear from someone

Not really, as at the last time I travelled in, which was January 19. There was no separate queue for e-visa.

Colleagues,

Trust you are all well. Please, I want to ask, can a spousal dependent visa work in the U.S. The spouse is currently on a study visa.


I look forward to your response.

Regards
