Giving you the white paper doesn't end the journey
I think dey run a kinda background check to cross check the information u gave in ur DS-160. I think they also check ur social media pages to be sure you are not some form of threat.
Hey bro, can i DM?

Please fam help me confirm this. Can I have my visa interview in Benin republic? Do I need to complete a new ds160, pay a new application fee and sevis fee. Thanks

Are you a citizen or resident of Benin Republic (with immigration proof)?

If not, they'll deny your application and refer you to their Nigerian embassies. It's a waste of time and money.

That was where u got it wrong bro
Only the schools address you should have put.
The VO already sensed the Jakpa mood instantly.

I will like to understand something, should he have kept the school's address as the address where he will be staying in USA? And I used my school as my contact person not my aunt

I have a similar case although I am yet to go for my interview

Placed a call across to Abuja Embassy this morning to follow up with my EA request and the call rep told me Abuja is closed for this week. So if you change to Abuja, your case might not be reviewed at all this week regardless. I'll advise you patiently wait for Lagos this week if you have applied already. Best!

Hopeful on God for good news.

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by chibertha(f): 2:37pm On Jul 19, 2021
As long as you can convince the VO that you are a genuine student and have enough money to cover for the expenses.

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Beansguy: 3:16pm On Jul 19, 2021
I just checked my visa application portal now and I saw that the feedback message I sent to them concerning my emergency appointment has been deleted, my emergency request is not showing in the feedback section as well. If the message has been attended to it will be in the closed section of the feedback menu, but if it has not been attended to it will be at the open section, but it's not there. Has anyone experience this before or it's a normal thing.

You only scratched your profile in the surface. You didn't give detailed information about your application. To start with you may post your mock transcripsts for vetting.

Exactly
It's very safe to use the school's address as where you will be staying. I have relatives in the US but I put the schools address as where I will staying.
Like I said, the whole idea to make them not sense the jakpa mode.
So you need to be very careful in approaching this.
For those who are yet to fill theirs
Use your school address as where u will be staying on ur DS-160
I may not know anything Sha
Just a suggestion �
