It is summertime. Many people are submitting applications during this period of the year. I checked earlier this morning; there are no appointment dates for July and August. The earliest one is September 2nd.

Labelle:

Hello everyone, please help.
I scheduled an appointment using a DS-160 that I had not completed nor retrieved the confirmation page. I tried to retrieve my DS-160 form to no avail and reached out to support. They did not understand the situation and simply told me to fill another DS-160 and take the old confirmation page (which I do not have). They assumed that I just needed to update a few details from the old one.
Hence, I cancelled my appointment (to avoid being turned back at the embassy) and I have been trying to pay a new MRV fee to book another one, this time with a duly completed DS-160 and confirmation page obtained. However, I have been coming across the issue of "duplicate account found for this user" indicating that they still recognize my passport details and won't allow me create a new appointment request.
I have reached out and they keep stating that the issue has been escalated.
Please what can I do as it is a very urgent situation.

Hello Brother,

Thank you for your good job here. Please a friend has asked me to help him. He is supposed to travel by Nov 8. We have not done anything at all. Is it possible to get an appointment before this time? I dont want to waste my time or his resources.

Please advice.

God bless

1. For your hubby, always log out and login or restart your phone, laptop, or browser in order to refresh AVITS page which is presently susceptible to hanging or frozen. When you do this, it's very possible that your desired date will be clickable. You just have to keep trying.

2. For your IW, You have to sign up, choose country and location (Lagos/Abuja), chose payment method, pay (within 3 days ) VISA fee with the method chosen, and wait for payment confirmation. You will encounter IW questionnaire naturally if you follow this process.

3. Once your payment is confirmed, your user account will display the calendar with available appointments (dates) , or the Interview Waiver ( IW ) confirmation. You will only need to click on Pending Appointment Request on your dashboard in order to continue.

4. After receiving the IW qualification letter , and your successful appointment booking on AVITS, then your next step is to visit OIS

https://www.oisservices.com/services

in order to schedule the 2nd round IW Drop off/Pick up appointment. You will need your AVITS booking information to do this, but it's going to be understandable. Focus on AVITS first.

🙏

Why did U PM me

Cashmadam:
1. Her salary is low but should not be an issue really. If she presents her case very well
2. She must include her statement(s) of account + payslips
3. She must demonstrate her ties to Nigeria - partner? children? aged parent? property? school? Anything to prove that she will come back to Nigeria
4. The major reason for the denial is that she did not say much about herself . She focused on presenting documents about her company.

Cashmadam:
Good morning. She must include her own statements of account - regardless of the sponsorship. The low statement might be an issue. The logic is simple. The visa officers always want to be sure that an individual can afford the trip - in the unlikely event the sponsor disappoints for any reason. Therefore, even with a sponsor, it is preferable for an individual to have more than enough funds to sponsor the trip him/herself. I hope I make sense.

Cashmadam:
Good evening cash madam,

Funny enough I did my own Tier 4 visa back then as a student and successfully studied in the UK but I do need your guidance to help some friends. Thank you for all your assistance here. God bless you!

So I helped a lady my friend introduced me to apply for a business visa (standard visa). She is to be sponsored by her organization here in Nigeria. The organization was to provide flight, accommodation, and feeding allowance. She had been rejected in the past when she lied she was to be sponsored but put her personal account that didn't have sufficient funds.

So, I applied stating the organization will provide the funds. The organization wrote a letter stating this. She provided her pay slips but not her personal bank balance since she earns lower than 250k monthly and has about 200k as savings.

She was denied, citing that she didn't say much about her personal circumstances. She wants to reapply cos her organization does need her so I thought to ask. Do I need to put her personal statement? Will this suffice? Will the fact that she has low savings cost her? What else can I do differently?


Good evening.

1. How are you the MD and Head, Digital? This might be an issue for the visa officer..
2. You can include a copy of your French visa - not just the visa number
3. Personal Information section is confusing me. Keep it short, sharp and simple. Information overload will confuse the visa officer. I get the general gist - you save in Dollars. Explain that in a very simple way. If I'm confused, the visa officer too may be confused.
4. You are not required to buy a ticket to get your visa. In fact, visa applicants are told not to buy a ticket before they get the visa. This information will not be helpful for your application and might actually make you look unnecessarily desperate.

thats not the point. even if he didnt, only one man stood to challenge it. others neglected it bevause they felt they lost. why not work with that one man to achieve the desired outcome.... thats the point.

Buhari might not win the elections by voting but thats because evil prevailed in the absence of good. If they knew, they would have rather reached a better compromise with Atiku than support this useless government

Didnt you here what Keyamo said during his ministerial screening at the senate, he said and i quote " as a private citizen, there is little or nothing you can do but by joining government and with the right opportunity like the one he is about to have, he can impact change"

thats the truth. Its just a question of choosing the right side. Keyamo made his choice cos he believes they have the edge. If Sowore and the likes, i mean fela, moghalu, and all the others had sat down with Atiku and discuss how to be part of the government, just maybe they would have had a better coverage and a united front against that tyrant in Aso rock right now

Cherrybae:
This is a good development, I urge the police to shot on sight.

May the souls of the departed rest in peace.

JOD1:
Hello!

Please, for the Statement of Purpose, do we write it as if we're applying directly to those universities of our choice OR as stated by PTDF during the application cum selection process?

Thank you.

It's obvious to see where @jackals is coming from. He wants to discredit the exercise because he wasn't selected. Just ignore him.
