Hello guys, I have to come out with the truth at this point, the agent sent me the statement of account a day before the interview, so there was nothing I could do to change it, it was a fake, but when I went for the interview, the VO took it and approved my visa, but now on their platform, it's showing refused, meanwhile my passport is still with them. Please I need urgent replies at this time, be it criticism, likely penalty and so on. Thank you all. Please just send me a pm

Silewinnie1:
Please house, do I need to sign the Student Attestation part and the sponsor part on my form i-20 before going for interview?

OgbeniOptional:
Wait o, I didn't put secondary school there o, just my university Hope I'm safe

Ogunwandetosin:
Pls wich should be institution 1, secondary skool or university? Cuz I arranged d previous application like a CV and my institution 1 is uni and d one below (institution 2) is secondary skool. Thanks.

Ogunwandetosin:
Ok.... Thank you.

Ogunwandetosin:
Jst tot of it now. Cuz d oda guy said I gave to an agent and from d VO she claimed to be sure of wat she was saying dat I graduated so many years ago, and I was also sure of wat I filled too....... Had to think of likely misrepresentations. Can I change d neW DS form to Adeola Memorial Secondary School.

Oegbeyem1:
Good afternoon everyone. I need to show just $10,000 in my bank statement as I have a tuition scholarship. I have an uncle who has about 6million naira in his business/company account. Can I use this account, because some people warn again company account. What can I do?

Ogunwandetosin:
Bro I jst thought of something, my secondary skool name is "Adeola Memorial College" maybe datz d problem, since higher institutions abroad are called "College". Maybe she thought datz my university, why she said I graduated many years ago. Guess datz wat her eyes first saw...... I finished secondary skool in 2012.

aduku1:
Its my mom bank statement and it very genuine This is really bad ooo...while raise one hope den deny after

aduku1:
My visa status just changed to refused just few hours After been granted visa and waiting for account verification. Very Sad

AARasheed:
Hello house, I am a new member here.

My visa was approved at the Abuja embassy yesterday pending an account verification. I just checked my status now and it says refused. I am 100% certain that the account is genuine because i went with my uncle to pick it up at the bank. I also got a mail with the normal refusal letter to go pick my passport at DHL.

Please could this be an error or i should i call the embassy for clarification. Please who has been in my shoes before.

Thank you.

Bunmip:
Please can someone help me out with this? I'll appreciate

Silewinnie1:
Hi,
While filling out the DS-160, I had indicated that I'll be attending the interview at the embassy in Lagos but I decided to schedule the interview at the Abuja embassy because it was more convenient for me. Is it okay to use the DS-160 even though it says lagos embassy on the DS-160 confirmation page.
Thanks

Adhheir:
I think since the B1/B2 route has been made very draconian to go through, everyone automatically became students; making student applications very high and rejection rates higher, I don't believe everything I read. Although the denial rates are high but they might not be telling the full stories too, some people's application and interview might not be convincing at all even for you as a Nigerian to pity your countrymen and grant them a visa If you're in the VO's shoes. We still have success stories and more are definitely still coming...keep the fire burning

Wealth7:
Am just hearing this for the first time... So the embassy now verify people statement of accounts now?? I mean everybody and not the random way it used to be?

Soothing:
Hello gurus,
Please if I choose Lagos on d DS 160 as location, can I schedule appointment in abj for interview?

homirefacuny:
I think applicants refused in the last six months are not privileged to do that? I saw such on their website

homirefacuny:
I cant... Was refused in October.

homirefacuny:
11th December

homirefacuny:
That will be almost impossible... Interview is 3rd of January. Sighs

homirefacuny:
Thank you bros. But you haven't answered my question.... My program starts 7th January(I guess registration of classes) but classes starts 14th. My earliest admission admission date is 11 December. Entering the US latest on the 14 of January is ideal right?

homirefacuny:
Good morning ya'll, I want to know which date is used at the port of entry for admission into the US. The program start date or start of classes. This two appears on my I20. Can someone please respond asap.

Munix:
Hello, I got admitted to ASU yesterday, trying to book a visa appointment this morning and all i could see as the available date is 3rd of January. Can I still get a date in December cos my school resumes early Jan.? Thanks

100kobo:
Sorry about the refusal. But let me quickly observe that you were not ready. You were denied because you couldn't defend your choice of Lincoln University and your Sonography program. It appears to me these selections were handed down to you and not a product of an intense research. You can prove me wrong by working on those two key areas.

You were not denied because Lincoln University is a wrong destination (flagged), as some may want to posit. You were not denied because Lincoln is too cheap or expensive as mooted when they mentioned "spending so much". That question was for emphasis and if you were prepared, you could have rescued the situation at that point. You were refused because you failed the first test on proving "you're a genuine student." There was no point testing if you're financially capable or have sinister immigration intents.

Way Forward: Don't book in a hurry. Do some personal researches about your school and course. Read particularly one or two interview transcript compilations, then you'd be ready to give it another try.

well I can't really say why I was , okay so this was how it went
VO: Good morning, please pass me your i-20 and your passport
me: passes my passport but trying to find my i-20 den she says there it is nd I passed it
V.O: why Lincoln University
me: aside their academic excellence, they admit anyone from anywhere without prejudice and this I realized from the rapport I had with a lecturer at the school.. ....VO then cuts in
V.O: why Sonography
me: sonography as a course is alien to us in Nigeria
V.O: sonography is what?
me: alien to us in Nigeria and upon completion of my nysc I worked as a volunteer at a primary healthcare in my community nd dere I saw a lot of defects in the healthline and this spiked an interest in me to further formalise my love for science
V.O: why do you want to spend so much at Lincoln, u know u can actually get this course at a community school
me: I know, but the quality of education I'll get from here I won't be able to get from any other school
V.O: when did you graduate
me: 2014
V.O: when did u serve
me: 2015
V.O: do u have any siblings ( ds I tot to be do u av any siblings in d US)
me: no
V.O: do u av any siblings in the US
me: no
V.O: I'm sorry ,I do not find you eligible for this visa..hands me d blue paper,u'll find d reason for ur denial on that
