I completed and submitted a DS 160 to the Cote d'Ivoire embassy.
However, I processed my visa fee for the Abuja Embassy [/b]with a new Ds 160 number.
[b]The exact issue I am seeking directions on
There are presently two Ds 160 forms, one is already submitted and the other one filled but not submitted.
Question is, seeing there are two different embassies should I still submit the information on my Ds 160 that I used to process my MRV in the Abuja embassy?
The consequences of submitting the second Ds160 will be having two Ds 160 in their database.
1. You are good to go if you have based your initial DS 160 on Lagos but you eventually picked Abuja location . However, all the US embassy instructions and guidelines (read attached docu) only talk about inter-city not international.
2. In your own case you should be fine since the Nigeria ds 160 eventually went through. Nevertheless, there are disadvantages in putting a round peg in a square hole when going for US visa interview. Some consular who are looking for a flimsy excuse can use it against you.
Thank you very much chief.
But I am a bit confused, I don't think I have a clear answer from your response chief.
I messaged the embassies but I have been directed to use the navigator and all to get proper feedback.
Does it mean I can go ahead and submit (I have already completed filling it anyways), or am I to leave it till the date of the interview, since they will likely access the DS 160?
1. In that case , use your signed I 20, SEVIS payment receipt, ds 160 slip and MRV to send a mail to the embassy under system error (direct email not support ticket).
2. Navigate back to few pages here you will see the Lagos and Abuja embassies emails. You should copy nigeria@usvisaappt.com in the mail.
Brief Summary Good evening sir, please per the documents mentioned above, I had initially completed a Ds 160 on my Cote d Ivoire application and saw somewhere on the thread that there is no need to refill another Ds 160 even after I changed it to Abuja due to not meeting the conditions of being able to expedite in Cote d ivoire.
Also at the time I couldn't proceed with the Ds 160, when I wanted to pay my visa, despite submitting the Cote D Ivoire application.
Now, the new one I had created for my Nigerian profile which didn't go before, was the one I used to process (paid) my visa application after the errors cleared.
I have also paid my sevis fee.
With that out of the way, please I want to know whether I need to fill out my Ds 160 with this new number again.
deees: Please don't. Your appointment has your application number. And it doesn't matter if, on the visa application, you choose Afghanistan as your embassy as long as you have your confirmation page, the embassy will scan the barcode and get all your information.
Good day.
I just want to clarify: I had initially filled out a Ds-160 with the location CoteD Ivoire.
However, when I wanted to pay the visa fees, I selected Abj with a new Ds1 60 number for Fct.
I had initially completed and submitted the earlier Ds 160, so would this apply in this instance? I thought of refilling the one I generated earlier and submitting it as the most recent Ds 160, especially within.
I want to book my appointment date through the Coted'Ivoire embassy and more importantly so I could also request an expedited date.
Now the challenge is, for Cote d'Ivoire, the conditions are that one must be a
resident or a citizen
to qualify for an F1 expedited date.
Whereas those conditions are not that stringent in Nigeria and my sole aim is just to be able to apply and request for an expedited date as my school resumes in January 2025
So, please anyone with suggestions on the best option in this regard?
mayford: He can pay the visa fee and book an appointment date but considering the interview wait times, unfortunately, he'd have to defer his admission to Spring '25. The next available dates are from November '24.
At best, he can have more time to seek funding. COA of 49k is quite a lot. Some funding will help lower the financial burden on him.
Just want to confirm if the Ivory coast route still works and the cost of doing it if one suspends to spring 25, is it easier to get a date then?
Rizzputin: It's generally a bad idea to tell or imply to a girl that you'll always make her happy and never want to see her cry
In fact, anytime I see a story on nairaland or twitter that starts off with "I always wanted to make her happy" I know before I finish reading that it ended badly for the guy
To some of you, what I'm about to reveal might serve as a quick reminder. To others it might be something new or a new/deeper perspective to something you've already known.
Here's the general idea: Don't be scared to make your girl angry or cry in a relationship
Doesn't matter if she is just a fling or a serious GF or a FWB, if you are getting women frustrated, that's a great sign.
That simply means that her attraction for you is still high, because frustration is an indicator that she cares.
Before I continue, let me clarify. The kind of anger you want is:
● "I want more time with you please pay attention to me"
Or
● "Damn he isn't acting like I was expecting. Fùck"
What you don't want is to be a source of depression for her.
So if that frustation is popping out sparingly and in small doses, you are doing it right.
But if she is constantly nagging about it, either you are overdoing it or she's a drama diva (you should run far away. I'll write a thread on this category of girls)
These days, I have zero issues getting girls annoyed. In fact, once I hear a girl say "you're so annoying" or "I hate you so much"....
I know deep down we're going to fùck soon. Sometimes I present opportunities to deny them something so they act angry
One time I was vibing with a girl and she asked me to get something for her and I weasled out of it
She then hit me with "are you not my friend... I'll cry o" with cute puppy dog eyes. But such things would move my JSS 3 self NOT the hook up material man I am today. She was angry of course. But that didn't matter because later that night she was hungrily sucking my dìck
Simps and the average guy try desperately not to offend girls. It's tough concept for them to wrap their head around that you can get a girl angry or annoyed and still pound her
They fail to understand the concept of "any emotion is good emotion". And "no emotion is bad & anti seductive"
Now, some of you understand this. But maybe you're wondering why trying so hard to please a girl will make her dump you faster than a naija politician does to parties
If you're curious, let's find out why....
You see, a girl's life as she grows is filled with pain, drama and tears. From period pains, to heartbreaks to random tears and drama
All these "negative" emotions are engraved in her psyche.
That's why when things are moving too smoothly or things are seemingly too good or too happy... her first instinct is to cause some drama. Or tell the guy "you're too good for me" OR "you're to boring"
She wants to eject or feel a new thrill of emotions
Because all her life there's usually something bad, dramatic or negative happening.
So when a guy comes along trying to be perfect or promising to always make her happy.... he gets the opposite treatment of what he's expecting.
She sees him as weak. Like something isn't right. She won't even know why she causes the drama or loses respect of him but her subconscious mind keeps the score
Sooner or later... her attraction for him fades off slowly till a point of no return
Of course, this doesn't mean you should go about making girls angry.
But you're not perfect and you should accept that. Meaning, you'd do things she won't like but are great in the long for the both of you.
She'll be angry now but will respect you more in the long run
Men de philosophize.
Tying that negative emotional angle to their everyday life being one of pain makes so much sense.
Pukkalolo: MetalJigsaw, you don't still get my point bro. But I'll clarify my point in a moment.
But before I get to that, I noticed something you said:
You said, directness is telling her: "Hi, I'd like getting to know you...."
There's nothing even direct about that. Infact that's more of an indirect style of communication.
When interacting with women, I want to quickly find out her level of interest in me or see if she's just gonna waste my time.
Now, look at your statement, Hi, I'd like getting to know you...."
It doesn't help achieve that, If you approach a manipulative girl who has no interest in you and say, Hi, I'd like getting to know you....," she's gonna just say "Ok, cool"; and then she start looking for ways to exploit you.
If you approach a lesbian who has no interest in men and say, Hi, I'd like getting to know you....," she's gonna just say "Ok, fine" and then she'll go ahead and waste your fucking time.
See bro, I've initiated conversation with countless numbers girls and I've learnt a lot of things the hard fucking way.
Here's the bitter truth about most girls: Even she has no interest in you, she will still allow you get to know her. Many girls are just looking to waste your time, effort and money.
The statements, "Hi, I'd like getting to know you" is not direct because it doesn't provoke her to decide if she wants you or not.
In the early stages of the interactions, the purpose of the interaction is not to getting-to-her; but rather the purpose of the interaction is to quickly find out her level of interest in me or see if she's just gonna waste my time. And a statement like, "Hi, I'd like getting to know you," doesn't help you find out if you are talking to a woman that has true interest in you.
Funny enough, this is what most nice guys do, they tell a girl "I'd like to get to know you," and ofcourse the girl will say, "Ok, sure." Then they start wasting their time getting to a girl that has no interest them. After getting to her, at the end of everything, the girl will still say, "let's just be friends."
Alright back to the original discussion.
I do some tutoring on the side. I teach maths, I teach programming. As you see I also teach knowledge on dating and relationship and how to handle women.
If a student who doesn't totally understands mathematics comes to me, I won't start teaching him Differentiation in Calculus. That'll be silly. Instead, I will start by showing him how to solve the basic of, 1 + 1 = 2 and 20 ÷ 4 = 5. Then gradually I'll go up the scale of difficulty.
Again, if a guy who doesn't totally understands JavaScript comes to me, I won't start teaching him Inheritances or Async/Await And Promises or High-Order Functions.. That'll be silly.
Instead, I will start by showing him the basics of how let, const and var works, Then gradually I'll go up the scale of difficulty.
Confidence is built like a muscle. You don't just lift of up the heaviest weight: your muscle can't handle that yet. You will start by lifting the lightest weight and getting comfortable with it.
Same strategy with women, If a guy is terrible scared of initiating conversation with a girl for the first time.
If I tell him "just be confident...go and tell her what you want." That's a stupid advice.
Instead I'll tell him to simply approach girls and only ask them for the time, something like "Hello, please what says the time?" Once she tell him the time...he should walk away immediately.
Once he gets comfortable with that, then I'll gradually go up the scale of difficulty.
I tell him to playfully throw comment at girls while walking walking at the same time, so that both him and the girl will feel no pressure to be in the interaction.
For example, if she's coming from a gym and wearing a nike shoe, just playfully tell her, "That's my Christmas shoe you are rocking anyhow like that." She'll probably laugh... Then you walk away.
It doesn't matter what you say, just make any playful comment and walk away, once you get comfortable doing that, then you go up the scale of difficulty by saying or doing more bold stuff.
Just keep gradually going up the scale of difficulty until you start doing and saying more ultra bold and ballsy stuff.
This is even a more effective way to learning game and understanding woman. Actually, It's even more effective than reading 100 of redpill books.
My own level of confidence, audacity and boldness is on another different level entirely. Several times, I've walk up to a group of 3 to 5 girls gisting together and I'll start wooing the cutest girls among them. It takes a lot of audacity to do that.
I've pratically done more things that are even more audacious than that. But if I tell a guy who's totally scared of even initiating conversation with even his fellow guy to do the extreme bold stuff I've done, he will freak out and run away.
But if I tell him to only stop a girl and ask her for the time, he'll do it because it requires only little confidence.
After getting comfortable doing that, I'll tell him to playfully throw out comment at girls while walking away from them. Although, this requires a little more confidence, but he'll still do that because he had already build up some confidence muscle before by asking girls for the time.
maak400: You're obviously dealing with a girl that doesn't give a fvck about you and you're here asking us questions. Another guy is fvcking her crazy and you're doing lover boy, you better leave that girl now and face your hustle as a man. Focus on building your career alaye, economy is hard. Number one rule of relationship for guys is that you MUST only date a girl that loves you more than you love her. I would have abused the shit out of you but today na Sunday morning.

Wotowotoman: You think say prenup na for poor man?
First o, wetin you think of the video first, watch am first!
Secondly, exactly na why I talk say if as Man you get bread and you de where e b say, once e sup you go lose properties e fresh make you run Prenup before time.
No be you wan marry?
But if the barney been de make bread and you come tell am say make she de stay house and she gree to leave all those things come de with you, I no mean say una de ground zero, but say she on her on own, been fit de survive on top all that career woman thing, I believe say she suppose de compensated.
Last, last automatically, most women won't qualify because not all are that industrious!
I think that marriage is contractual, two people coming together
If a Man wants a stay-at-home wife I think upon divorce especially "IF" she was someone that had something going on for her, before the Marriage, I think she should be compensated upon divorce.
But if she agrees to still work during the marriage then a prenup should suffice for both parties.
The sad thing about that picture is that in his case he admitted or someone pointed that the guy she sleptT with was her first Male adult-star she professionally had doings with and that was her wedding gift. Chai.
Wetin internet no go do make man see.
Say na one no do, the guy's video session according to am na $4k, but the Man was the guy he Adam 22 was the one that reached out to him and even paid him $10k.
E b like she wan run another p sef, that's if she no run am already. And homeboy talk day it takes a real Man to do that!

luminouz: All these ones small. Let okada riders gist you about women innate nature and sexscapades and you go vex lose your appetite
True talk.
These days na stories I just wan de hear, I no too de shock except say na one wey just pass wetin Man Don hear before, because it aids in desensitizing one from that naive state of their capabilities.
The point be say, e get time wey like person point out, person go de reason weda dem de shit but now if you still de dat head space, wire go shock you.
Karlifate: ✍️... Become a high value man through purpose, not just game.
Men spend half their lives seeking tactics to attract women, while disregarding their core responsibility at the cost of it.
The need to fulfill lust has become so strong, that a mans apex value has become nothing but sex. 🔗 🔗 Having a purpose greater than women.
A purpose has the capacity to make a man develop attractive traits as a weapon disguised as consequence. When you select a path towards abundance, you by default will encounter resistance.
You will be forced to contend with obstacles, that either break you or force you to elevate & overcome them.
This is hardship, where attractive traits are forged.
For you to overcome resistance, it will require you to kill parts of yourself too complacent to handle the brutal forces encountered.
You will fail, get back up, then fail again, etc...
Every time you get back up, you shed the undesirable parts of yourself.
You will be forced to become more determined, more aggressive.
You will become more cunning & leverage means to reach your end.
You will become intolerant of anything & anyone that conflicts with your apex value.
