Nikanne:
Please is there anyone that their application was placed on administrative processing after an interview. How long did it take before you got a response back? Was the visa eventually issued?

My application was on administrative processing for 22 working days after the interview even though my application was approved and my passport was collected the day of the interview. The visa was issued and I got my passport the next day.

Hello @everyone, i'm about putting in my application for my studyvisa but I have a little worry. On my admission letter, I was required to apply for Co-op along with my study visa. How do I go about that?

Hi tosynn there’s no need to worry.
I applied for my study visa with co-op last year and just submitted a letter from my school to support my co-op application. Just indicate the co-op requirement when applying for your visa and submit supporting document to that effect.

The wait was really crazy had to defer my admission to fall 2022 but I’m glad all my prayers worked eventually. Praying for those yet to receive a positive response that your ppr is on the way and it will end in praise.

I don’t know whether to go ahead with the interview or defer my admission to spring please anyone with any useful advice should please let me know.

Hello I need anyone to advice me. I was supposed to have a visa interview on the 15th of August at the Abuja consulate and my school classes begin on the 22nd of August and I haven’t had an interview because of the consulate closure. Will it be okay to have an interview for the visa past the program start date with a late arrival letter from my school or should I just defer to spring? Please I’ll really appreciate any reply.
