I'm a software engineer and I got accepted into an internship program in California. I applied for visa with my husband. We got married nine months ago. Exchange programs usually require that you have a visa sponsor, so you pretty much do all of your documentation with them first. Then they register you on the SEVIS database once you have competed all your documentation.

For the records, the marriage certificate we submitted was the one obtained from the mosque where we got married. And I didn't change my name after I got married.

Initial date scheduled: July 2022

First expedited request was submitted on 14th of July and it was rejected. I guessed it was because I didn't attach any document. Then I read online that you need to attach DS-2019 and SEVIS fee payment receipt. So a colleague in the US helped me with the payment and it reflected on the portal after three days because he used the mailing option. I sent in another emergency request and it was approved after one week.

Expedited date: August 19th 2021
Location: Lagos

VO: What are you studying
ME: Currently pursuing a degree in *** at UNILAG

VO: what type of degree
ME: Masters degree

VO: is ****** a company or a school?
ME: it's a company

VO: How long will this internship last?
ME: 1 year

VO: will you be leaving your degree and concluding it when you return?
ME: I am currently writing my research and I would be defending in a few weeks time.

VO: is this program part of your degree. Or a separate arrangement?
ME: Its a separate arrangement

VO: ***Types and looks at my DS-2019. Then hands me a booklet. And said: if your rights as an employee in the US is violated, feel free to contact this organisation. Ensure you go through it when you get home. I would be approving your Visa.

My husband want not asked any question.

All the best folks. Ensure you are confident during your interview. I posted this because there is limited information on exchange visitor visas on nairaland

Your travel experience made it simple bro, imagine going to France and Germany and decided to come back , it means you are not a potential immigrant, when my elder brother who spent his time on traveling visited US embassy …. They just opened his passport and close it back and hand him a white paper, they only question they asked him

What are you going to this country to do
