Iriase1 I got your email. You can drop your message here, I will respond.

You don't have to change the date. Just make sure you message support with the new ds160 bar code. Also confirm the barcode on the appointment letter matches the one on the ds160 (the ones you take to the embassy) or else they won't let you into the embassy.

roborstein:
I'm also waiting for the updated i20 but currently have a date within 3 months of January. I'm hoping that I don't have to change that interview date with updating the ds-160

I'm still waiting for my new i20 before doing mine. You actually need to fill a new ds160 form with your new sevis ID. Then send a message to support on AVITS portal to update your ds-160 number and sevis ID. When it is done, you will print out the new visa appointment slip that has the updated information.

roborstein:
I would like assistance with those who deferred their admission and had paid sevis fee for the fall semester that already began.

Could you please outline the steps to update your F1 visa application with embassy for a new semester.
Did you email the embassy? If yes, what was the response or updates made to your visa application.

Write down everything. Use sticky notes for reminders, paste them where you can see them easily. You can also use note pad on your phone. Just write down your to do list, task and things you don't want to forget.
You aren't dull. Believe in yourself, nobody else will do it for you.

You are right. I spent almost 30 mins switching between Lagos and Abuja before I got the date.

October 2025 are now available... If it goes keep checking the site they will still bring it back again

October 2025 is available for Lagos. Dates are now available.

September 2025 is available for Abuja. January 2026 for Lagos.

The person obviously didn't spend her own money to buy these items if not she won't just abandon them and move to another venture.

I reported a bolt driver yesterday, I hope action is taken and I will continue to report other drivers that misbehave. You guys make bolt very unsafe and give a bad name to Nigerians. Imagine me booking a ride, you accept and then start complaining about the money and the fact that passengers still want AC. Before nko, if i wanted a non-AC cab, I would have used the normal Lagos state yellow taxi. If you as a driver doesn't like the amount, then don't accept the ride.

What annoyed me was after I arrived and had made payment, I realized the driver cancelled the ride. I couldn't get the receipt to ask for a refund from my company. Imagine if it was my mother I booked the ride for and he cancelled it just so he can make money offline, that means I won't be able to monitor the rides movement on the app. If he had kidnapped me nko, the company won't know because he drove offline. My anger isn't that he took the ride offline, but that he did it without my consent and put me at risk.
Anyway I have submitted my proof to bolt, I await their response. I will continue to report other drivers that misbehave, na una dey spoil this country.

You can get it at Marie Stopes clinic surulere and EHA clinic Sangotedo.
You need to present a negative pap smear test to them.
EHA does delivery to your location, you will pay for the dispatch.

From your replies it's obvious you have already made up your mind for "peace to reign". Public schools close by 2pm while her private school closes by 1pm. So because of one hour difference, you want to reduce the quality of her education to please your wife. God put the destiny of that child in your care as His steward, you either do His will or you do your wife's will. If you can do any of the two, kindly send her back to her parents. The ball is in your court.

For peace to reign, really!!! You want to support your wife's wickedness for peace to reign? Please send that girl back to her parents in the village. You can be paying her tuition directly to the school and support her from afar instead of letting your wife turn a 6yrs old child into a maid. Your wife is a wicked witch.

Hmmm, thank you.

Consultvenek:
Date like this comes but you just need to be keeping your fingers crossed to get a date that is without stress. I got some early Aug dates for some clients yesterday in lag yesterday.

@ifemeze ok, I will try it. Thank you.

No, the time didn't show. But when I click on a 2026 date, the time slot will show.

Ifemeze:
Does time slots come up when you click the date?

Please has anyone been able to book a date for Lagos? I don't understand if I'm the only one experiencing this.

There are 2025 dates for Lagos. When I click on it, it refuses to move. Please who else is experiencing this and what could be wrong?

Give it 4hrs then login again. It happens when your login is too frequent.

dalobaba:
I can’t log on to Avits platform. It’s saying “access temporarily restricted”.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue.

I received an email.

LegendKing:
Hi, how did you know it had been approved through email or any indication in AVITS?

Yes

Timshin:
Please did you submit before the visa pause?

It was approved the next day, 24hrs.

Baller234:
How long before they granted your request?

Your request will be granted without paying SEVIS fee, it isn't compulsory. I did it and it was approved, I only paid my SEVIS fee few days to the interview. Be patient, your emergency request will be approved.
There are no dates, you just need to be wait.

Pacesetter2:
@efetobore1980; @everyone

Please advise. I have applied for emergency appointment but yet to pay my SEVIS Fee. Is it advisable to proceed to pay now or should I wait till the application for expedited request is granted.

Thank you

P.S. Is it usual that there is no indication of the application permanently reflected on the AVITS portal. Please note I got a notice of submission but that was all.

I don't know about Abuja but I believe it should be the same with Lagos. For Lagos there are lockers and it's 500 naira, only cash is accepted. All those shop owners will try to convince you to keep your property with them for a higher price, don't abeg. The embassy has lockers inside and you keep the key.

Lolaayinkeade1:
Good Morning House.
Please I have a question. In the abuja embassy, are there lockers where you can keep your phones? Is it free? And if its not, how much do they charge? Cos I don’t have any trusted person to go with me.

Please who knows how long the pre-approval stage last after paying visa fee at first bank?

Yummy

Please move out quick. That wall dampness was what destroyed my hard copy pictures and some of my documents. You will just notice your things will start going bad plus the building will get worse and collapse someday.

airsaylongcome:
The OP mentioned something about leaking pipes. Whose job is it to fix in-wall leaking pipes? The tenant? Landlord go old. The building is the Landlord’s asset. If he has built nonsense, he should not expect the tenant to come rebuild for him. I’m currently suffering wall dampness in my rented accommodation and landlord doesn’t want to fix it. I dey laugh am. The wall will decay and rot, will pack out, and he will spend a huge sum to fix it. I’d rather buy a dehumidifier than fix a landlords wet wall

It's not true abeg.
Seun please allow us to post short content na. Na WA.

Princess080:
Good day everyone,

I submitted my DS-160 form in the month of May and got interview date in July, now someone is telling me that they don't submit DS-160 form not on till 2weeks to my interview that after 30days on their data base system if my interview has not been done, I will be asked to reschedule another interview date. Please how true is this?

I thought there are no dates until further notice due to the visa interview pause? Or have things changed this one I'm seeing people trying to book dates?

Oh I thought it was a return ticket. It seems it is their pattern to cancel flights on the day of travel and it's true they don't ply the Benin - Warri route, they just want to collect money from people. They are terrible.

Wonder1844:
My flight with my kids out of the country is 19th June, If Arikair disappoint me in Warri I will spend to much to reschedule. Worse is that Arikair has not plied that route since last week.

Don't cancel the flight you booked or else they will say you are the one that cancelled it yourself. Don't cancel your return ticket. Screenshot the flight cancellation email and send to them. They are indeed the worst airline in Nigeria, that God we were able to book aero contractors for the same day to Benin. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Send an email to arikrefunds@arikair.com with screenshot of the flight cancellation email sent to you, your PNR etc. They will send you a form to fill, you need to attach your bank statement showing when the money left your account.

My mum's flight to Benin was cancelled on the 22nd of last month, I did that and the money was refunded to my account on the 11th of June. I didn't even notice until I saw my account balance.
Don't worry, they will refund your money. Just send the email, fill the form and attach your bank statement.
