This is well appreciated and fully understood.

Efetobore1980:
●▪︎
Dont listen to anyone's suggestion (including myself) regarding how U.S. visa stampings and visa duration works, if that person is not a direct staff of USCIS.

Logically, you are suposed to reshdule your present appointment to 3-Months before resumption (May, 2025), and if you failed to do so, then the consular will decide if to place you on 221g or guide you appropriately.

●▪︎ Your interviewing officer must have verified your I-20, and having granted your visa, that means he/she have seen your resumption date, Ipso facto, there will be annotation in your visa to grant you entry whenever you are ready for school (you can travel 3-months prior to school resuming). In whatever situation, please focus on aquiring the visa first.

@Efetobore1980; everyone

Please what is your view about the three months visa thing. I have a date for January ending but will not be resuming until July all things being equal. Someone suggested the three months may lapse while I am still here in Nigeria and may need another one before July (N.B All things is on the assumption that I get the visa in January.)

Do you have any experience on this. Grateful for your response.

Your request will be granted without paying SEVIS fee, it isn't compulsory. I did it and it was approved, I only paid my SEVIS fee few days to the interview. Be patient, your emergency request will be approved.
There are no dates, you just need to be wait.
I'm grateful, Missidy.
I'm on standby and pray things work out well.

■■
No one will advice you to not pay SEVIS fee. The validity period is 1-year. Go and pay it while you are hoping for your expedite appointment approval.

■ Embassy may omit approval notification or it can be caused by a system glitch, but approval email is usually sent. The best way is to keep clicking on " Reschedule ", twice in a day after 24/48hrs or request. 👍
Many thanks for your response.

@efetobore1980; @everyone

Please advise. I have applied for emergency appointment but yet to pay my SEVIS Fee. Is it advisable to proceed to pay now or should I wait till the application for expedited request is granted.

Thank you

P.S. Is it usual that there is no indication of the application permanently reflected on the AVITS portal. Please note I got a notice of submission but that was all.

Please when is the latest time you think I could apply for I-20 and consequently apply for a date for a program that starts in Aug.

My sponsor for some reasons until around July. Based on past experience, am I still in good standing to get visa should other things go well?

I will really appreciate your response

Just want to know if it is advisable for funds to be transferred into my account at this time for the purpose of meeting the outstanding fee deficit? I have a full tuition waiver and just need to cover the rest.

Or is the bank statement of my sponsor(s) sufficient and best advisable?

CultureRe: 10 Extinct Nigerian Languages And What You Think Can Be Done To Save The Rest by Pacesetter2: 10:45pm On Sep 23, 2014
The first thing is to make our native language the medium of communication in schools. Just like the passing of English is being made compulsory for admission and employment, so also must the students pass a native language before any further steps can be attained. With this, it makes the students more focused on the langauge.

wear it everyday. In fact during our time, we wore uniform just to sign our documents. To prevent being challenged kindly do the needful. You might be sent out or disgraced.

My advice to other law student, if you know that you are going to branch at the faculty, wear your uniform but if you believe that you cant near the LTs ,faculty library,moot court and the faculty building then wear anything you.

Hairstyle must be low cut though not specified but dress corporate always.
Nairaland GeneralRe: Seun Is Wrong by Pacesetter2(op): 10:44pm On Jan 02, 2014
I'm not against the anti-censoring but all i'm just trying to put across is that with the anti-censor package on nairaland, then that disclaimer is wrong

@mikael78 you've shown us that it is you that is in school right? Thanks
Nairaland GeneralSeun Is Wrong by Pacesetter2(op): 10:53pm On Jan 01, 2014
Just of recent, the CEO of Nairaland added a a disclaimer at the end of every thread. I'll like to bring to his notice that he is wrong because there is an/are anti-censor(s) which change what we intend writing. E.g
the boy molestation the girl when the real poster intend writing the boy r.ape the girl.

I also like to bring to his notice that some of these words are gramatically wrong.

So my point is as long as this continues, then that disclaimer is a lie.
PoliticsThe Nuisance Tagged Ondo State Task Force by Pacesetter2(op): 10:24pm On Dec 23, 2013
The nuisance tagged Ondo State Task Force.
On the 23rd of December 2013, i was opportuned to shift my hustling point to Akure central market but was suprised at what i saw at the force's boot between Olukayode plaza and Total Petrol Station. A thief suspect was being beaten nearly to a point of collapse. I wished I could snap them but my battery was dead. In 1999 constitution, it is only the court that has been given power to prove an innocent guilty but with what i saw on that day, I was astonished on why they have taken laws into their hand by beating someone to such an extent. This was the example of what happened in October last year when a town,Aluu in Rivers State beat suspected men and burnt them to death.
This issue of jungle justice is getting out of hand most especially the uniformed men whose primary duty is to safeguard and execute laws and not judgement but due to their impunity because they are force men has taken it another level. I will hereby call on the Government of Ondo State & the Director of the Ondo State Task Force to address this issue properly and punish the officers invovled so as to prevent future recurrence. Anybody caught in any offences should be charged to court so that the accused can have his lawyer and defend his case in a peaceful and calm atmosphere and not under the duress as being done in the force's boot.

lekzyn: MOB is just destroying his political existence in Ekiti state and Nigeria as a whole. A real Ekiti man will never vote MOB, go and check you will only see youths that has no future following MOB, quote me anywhere because I leave in Ikole-Ekiti and I no what is going on but most of MOB supporters are after his money and MOB knows how to splash money on politics. Those following him are just after his money, well JKF as really make me proud of Ekiti state in terms of infrastructure, Ikogosi, Ire burnt bricks, good and accessible roads, education, health etc though no one is perfect and humans are insatiable.
when you 'leave' in Ikole you dont have any clue about Ekiti politics. So no need to enlighten you.

PoliticsShe Expressed The Same Sentiments-chief Osoba by Pacesetter2(op): 2:31pm On Dec 18, 2013
Former Governor Segun Osoba of Ogun State who is also a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has confirmed that he met Iyabo Obasanjo, the daughter of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, during his trip to the United States in September 2013. Recounting his chance meeting with Ms. Obasanjo to SaharaReporters, Chief Osoba said he was in the United States for the 73rd anniversary of the Nieman Foundation Fellowship when he ran into Iyabo, a former senator in Nigeria. The former governor told SaharaReporters he was staying at The Charles Hotel in Cambridge when he had a chance encounter with the daughter of the former president who told him her car was parked in the hotel’s basement parking lot.
Chief Osoba said that, after the meeting, Ms. Obasanjo went downstairs to get her car and then drove him to the offices of the Nieman Foundation Center where he had an event. He said commute took close to an hour, leaving plenty of time for a long conversation between him and former President Obasanjo’s daughter.
Speaking further, Chief Osoba disclosed that Iyabo expressed exactly the same sentiments about her father contained in her letter that was just published by SaharaReporters. According to the former governor, Ms. Obasanjo stated that her father would divide the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) more than it was then after his so-called intervention in the party. He said Ms. Obasanjo also stated that she had no plans to return anymore to Nigerian politics, a sentiment she expressed in the acerbic letter to her father.
Chief Osoba added that, after his return from the US, he met former President Obasanjo a month later at the 80th birthday party of Chief Adedoja Adewolu and told him of his encounter with Iyabo in Massachusetts, including her view of his intervention in the PDP. Former Governor Osoba said he strongly believed that his discussion with Mr. Obasanjo might have prompted the former President to tell his daughter to run on the platform of the APC, another revelation made in her letter.
Former Senator Iyabo Obasanjo wrote an 11-page letter to her father which she sent to Lagos-basedVanguardnewspaper. In the letter, she described her father as a liar, manipulator and a hypocrite. She also characterized her father as a wife-beater and abominable father.

When you are talking of being legally married how? Is it that those other 3 wives cohabited with him and never married them even traditionally? Is the legal wife married in court?

I think in a situation like this, there are laws that govern distribution of properties incase there is no will. Just approach a lawyer for advice and guidiance.

welcome to faculty of law. Concerning the uniform, make sure it is white not milky. I'm happy you're aware of the dressing...no trousers for ladies...no splitting of skirts to b.uttocks..infact if your skirts is too tight and some lecturers who esteem moral sees you...na one chance. Concerning hostel...it depends on what you want...town means the ado centre and that is 140 per day for go-come..concerning cultists, we no longer have them as they've used to be. Everywhere is peaceful but if you're the exact type that like a lively environment,i'll advice satelite. Peaceful and quiet place for reading goes to oppossite the school gate. If you dont want light and a far place from school, go for satelite phase 2 but you like cheap hostels but taking bike per day to school then live at iworoko town. School gates is also cheap beacause the best hostel goes for 65k but in the lively satelite phase1..around 120k per year
