I was notified via email for the approval. But when I applied, no notification. You just have to wait. I got a closer date but it took some time ( for Lagos).
crano:
Wow, congratulations dear.
Mine is now two days and tomorrow is public holiday. Still waiting for their response. I can't help but worry. Please, did you get the notification for the approval through email?
Did you get earlier date?

I didn't even receive a notification that I've submitted the request. I only noticed "Already request is pending" as indicated on the right side of the attached screenshot when attempted to resubmit it.
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 9:18pm On Apr 30, 2025
Yes, it was approved the next day.
crano:
Hi.
Have they responded to your emergency request?
I applied too and still haven't received any response. Please, response to my comment. Thanks.

Yes, Abuja has dates for May. Lagos - June.
coolmosab1:
Please can you confirm if Abuja has dates for May because someone said there are now dates for June 2025 in Lagos
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy:
I printed and signed mine but it isn't compulsory. I just wrote two lines stating the reason for my request, no need for long note.
Drone95:
pls do I need to print and sign the i-20 before uploading?
Is there a need to write a comprehensive note on the reason for creating emergency request?
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 5:33pm On Apr 28, 2025
June dates are available now. Check quickly.
IchieChi:
Good afternoon all,
Please i filed my DS-160 form and chose Lagos as visa interview location.

However i got approval for expedited visa interview and i wanted to reschedule but only Abuja has available interview dates for this yer.

My question is thie. can i change my interview location from Lagos to Abuja? (Bearing in mind that what i have on my DS-160 form is Lagos)
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 5:32pm On Apr 28, 2025
Thank you. I just booked a date for June.
Taal17:
Dates will open up for Lagos don't worry. You still have 3 months before your school starts.
Be patient
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 8:58am On Apr 28, 2025
Clicking on reschedule doesn't take away your current date, it's only when you post it and click on confirm that it will change. You have 5 chances to reschedule after your emergency request has been approved.
Drone95:
A.How do I continue to check for available near date after I have already scheduled a date. I navigated to my appointment page and I saw RESCHEDULE AND CANCEL. I don't want to mess anything up, pls if I click on the reschedule will it automatically take way the current scheduled date I have or it will give me access to view other available dates ?

B. I saw 5 reschedules available, does it mean I can reschedule up to 5 times?
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 8:20am On Apr 28, 2025
Just go to create emergency request, click on it and fill the information. I just told them I need a closer date because my school resumes in August, then I uploaded my i20. It was approved the next day.
The problem now is, there are still no dates for Lagos. Only Abuja has dates for May. The whole thing is tiring.
Drone95:
this walk me through the procedure, abuja or Lagos? Abuja is dishing out closer date. Saw lot of july dates today

Thank you.
Efetobore1980:
Hello.
Don't rely on notifications because notifications might delay to deliver or might not even sent as a result of system error or glitches.

After 24hrs of requesting for the expedited appointment always login to your profile (on AVITS) intermittently and click on " Reschedule Appointment"
It will take you to nearest date if your expedited appointment has been granted. 👍
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 2:44pm On Apr 22, 2025
Thank you.
Sosao:
Yes it is. You will be notified via email when it is approved
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 11:48am On Apr 22, 2025
I applied for expedited appointment date. I followed the steps and clicked on submit. I didn't get any notification or email neither can I see the request on my dashboard. Is this normal?
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 6:52pm On Apr 16, 2025
Their website is currently undergoing maintenance, that might be why. Please use card to pay, it's much better and you can avoid that pre-approval delay.
ChiomaCharity:
Thank you, I did not generate any receipts before now, when this present one had issues I cancelled my application totally and started new one and generated another one today again, went to same bank with it and it showed the same issue showing same date printed and same date as expiration, while I was in the bank 3 more persons came in with the same issue, so the bank told us it’s probably a network issue from the embassy end, that until they resolve the issue it won’t work.
So what I intend doing is reaching out to the embassy support team for clarification.
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 7:23pm On Apr 11, 2025
There are currently dates for June 2025 in Abuja.
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 4:17pm On Apr 11, 2025
Any links to a date search group?
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 4:16pm On Apr 11, 2025
Get someone in the US to help with make the payment with their card. That's what I did and I took me to date booking after few minutes.
Sistopre:
hi, how did you pay via bank transfer? I am trying to pay for a visa appointment but I am not sure the best way to go about it
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 5:35am On Apr 11, 2025
Please what's wrong with choosing free delivery? I chose free delivery.
Efetobore1980:
Hello.
Chose premium delivery from the beginning if you can afford it (though you can change delivery options B4 your interview).
If you chose free delivery now and later chose premium delivery after the issuance of your visa it can take 2 weeks to get the delivery of your passport except it you paid for express delivery.
Although the stated issues does not happen all the time but most time OIS, DHL and the US embassy misunderstand delivery messages amongst themselves especially changing from free to premium. Ciao.

That means uri already offered you the assistantship, congratulations. This is my clue to move on from them.
Godsknight:
Thank you .The director of the Rhode Island University Business school sent a mail to me that he will send the offer letter for assistantship position to me next week . However , I have enough time to accept the offer from University of Wisconsin . The deadline stated in the letter is April 15th .
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 8:01am On Mar 15, 2025
Please just go ahead with the first school, don't bother waiting for anything from university of Rhode island. Getting funding from them is difficult, they have been tossing us around since December. Congratulations.
Godsknight:
I got admission for PhD in supply chain to two universities in US with tuition waiver and graduate assistantship . What is next stage ? One of the Universities, University of Wisconsin has sent admission letter that shows the tuition waiver and $23.000 per year for graduate assistantship . I just got a mail from the second university yesterday , university of Rhode Island that department has recommended me for admission . Although still waiting for the admission letter .

He should be preparing on how he will answer the question of how he will pay the 14k deficit. That is what the VO will ask him. That should be his priority not defeating himself because he is non-stem.

They are here on nairaland. Thatthickgirl in diary section. Check the USA student visa thread too.
Akotechonline:
This make sense, can you please share your contact... He'll like to talk to you personally please.
Travel › Re: Please Come In And Advise Myself About USA by missidy: 6:20am On Mar 03, 2025
So far as he has funding, he is good to go. Go and check the profile the guy that got funding for painting/fine arts, in diary section there is a girl that is fully funded in USA in non-stem. Visa approval is not for stem students alone. That is how people get defeated before they even start their journey.

Model - WP-750R ( that's what is written on the body). Semi automatic and top loader.
Deebee21:
This helps. Thank you so much.
What model did you get please
Family › Re: Kindly Suggest Best Brand Of Washing Machine by missidy: 7:00am On Feb 27, 2025
LG is the best. We have been using ours since 2014. I only had to change the old drainage hose this year.
Deebee21:
I’m tempted to buy Hisense based on the good reviews I’ve seen so far. But I’m also considering LG based on the 10 year warranty offered. Any advise please?

I’m after durability more than anything else. Preferably a front loader too. Thanks
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 10:38pm On Feb 19, 2025
Yes, I got admission since December. You might be lucky to get funding, give your department a trial.
Everbest30:
They sent me a notice of admission. They haven't said anything on funding.


Have you gotten admission from them?
Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by missidy: 5:55pm On Feb 19, 2025
Ok, I have given up on the school tho. They don't respond to emails regarding funding, it seems impossible with them. I'm getting i20 from another school.

Agriculture › Re: Suggest crops Cows don't destroy for an aspiring farmer by missidy: 2:32pm On Feb 06, 2025
Na wa o. Cows have more power than citizens all thanks to Buhari.
Tickles001:
To fence about 3 acres of farm land that you probably leased will cost you, adding to the cost of the actual farming.
I tried fencing with bamboo and they keep taking it down every single night.
My neighbour, a smaller farm had a dwarf fence about 5blocks high. The cows break through the fence portion by portion until there's no meaningful barriers left of it.

The worst is they come at night. You'd just get there in the morning to see the havoc.
Agriculture › Re: Suggest crops Cows don't destroy for an aspiring farmer by missidy: 9:35am On Feb 06, 2025
Can't one fence the farm? Or do these herdsmen force their way into fenced property too?
Tickles001:
Even if they didn't eat the crops. They'll still pass through the farm repeatedly, trampling on the crops. Talking from experience

Udengs is so desperate. From PDP to LP, now APC. The worst part is his people don't even like him. All this jumping up and down just to give his beautiful wife Teslimat the good life she is used to. Chai.
Celebrities › Re: What Tuface Idibia’s Younger Brother, Charles, Wrote About Annie In 2021 by missidy: 11:12am On Jan 29, 2025
This is why I am surprised women have been supporting Anniee. Who doesn't know that Annie's mother has been living with them in lekki since Olivia was born more than 10yrs ago. Yet Tuface mother can't go to his house. Everybody in Eket knows their story. How her mother went for omugwo and never returned, left the husband there until he finally died. Abeg Annie isn't a saint. It is always the housewives that don't have their own money that will be fighting their inlaws and stopping them from coming to their son's houses.

Please can a sponsor use his business account as proof of funds or it has to be a personal account? My sponsor has more money in his business account.
