If your program is fully-funded, go for f1 first if not go for f2 and apply for f1 when you get to us. Remember that f2 has longer waiting time and if you are denied f2 visa now you can't apply for EA for F1 until after 6 months.
mobbwc:
Hello House,

I have a inquiry, I will state my story briefly:

I sought to apply for an f2 visa, I filled the DS-160, paid in the bank, opened an account on USTRAVELDOCS, and I am currently at the stage where I am supposed to book an appointment. I have not booked the appointment because I have not seen a favourable date.

The Twist

I have now gained admission and wish to apply for an f1 visa to attend my program. its logical I abandon the earlier f2 application but I am unsure the steps I need to take to begin/complete the F1 application. do i fill new ds-160, do I proceed with the same USTRAVELDOCS account (how? considering that an f2 application is live in the account), or I will be eligible to open another USTRAVELDOCS account?

I will appreciate your kind and step by step guidance on how I need to complete the application given my unique situation.

Thank you

First of all, funding, MBA is costly if not full funded, so you been self funded means you need to prove beyond doubt that your sponsor is capable, from transcript history here V.O
don't reckon with salary earners and civil servants as eligible sponsor, you might have increased your chance by stating the person's net income or use a business person with steady cash flow.

2. Your answer "business woman" to what do you do is too generic, you are going for MBA to probably become a leader in an organisation. V.O might be expecting a more specific job title and a little about your job description and organisation size, even if you are self employed, e.g. I work as ...xyz, in an organisation of 70 staff, I handle .... Best of luck next time

Why choose US. then? When UK dey there that you can pack all your family at once? Weather she likes it or not, the husband/student going first is there best option. How do you pack 3 dependants to embassy and still prove you are not a migrant.
phillip2:
Hello fam!!

I trust youre all having a great day.. please I really need your candid advice. My bro secured a fully funded PHD admission in the USA for this upcoming fall 2022 semester. He's married with 2kids. Please what's the best way they can all travel to the US. Note: he going first to prepare for his wife and kids to come over is out of the picture,not an option for the wife,she nor won hear that one.

So that's why I came here to seek for step by step process in achieving they get the Visa and they can all go together.. thanks, I await positive and useful advice from my NL fam

There's a fundamental issue with your applications,
probably choice of schools, our someone is applying for you, or your SOP.

Get there by 7am, there are some things to do (checks) before the interview
ShyShyBobo:
Does anyone know what time the embassy opens officially?

Is it 8am or 9am?

What's the best time to get to the Abuja embassy for an appointment time of 7:30am?

I once read that the queue as at 4/5am sometimes in Lagos is always crazy.

Pick any date you see then apply for Emergency application and attached your i20, sevis fee confirmaation page, ds160 confirmation, passport page and visa fee recipt.
wait for approval, if approved you will see some earlier dates

The V.O. are trained to detect "JAPA mode in visa application".
Even if you want to Japa try to make it look legit.

You have not travelled out before and the first time you want to travel out it's usa, on a study sponsored by your brother-in- law.
My take.
1. You should have applied alone and use your family as home tie.
2. Your funding is suspicious your brother inlaw should have transferred the fund to you if it's genuine or get a loan.

I wish u best of luck next time. And thanks for sharing

Why not defer till next semester, applying 4weeks after resumption is really not the best for your profile. Taught ER is 60days to your start date
Teluv:
Good day everyone,
Please I need your advise and suggestion on what to do.
My visa interview is on the 17th of February 2022 at the Abuja Embassy. However my program started on the 10th of January 2022, I could not get an earlier date, all emergency appointment dates request were denied, I even pay the MRV fees twice.
I am just wondering if there an issue with attending a scheduled study visa appointment 4 weeks after the program start date.

Msc in Construction management Technology.
Thanks

Either of the following should solve the issue

1. Get a statement from your school that English is the language of study of your degree.
2. Do ielts
3. Get alternative English test e.g naric.

I also had c6 in my waec but I attached 3years old ielts result of 7.0 overall band
