Good day all
Please any one who had his or her interview in Abuja… are there places to keep your gadgets ??
Hi.
Best you drop all gadgets at home/Hotel........or there are some "hustlers" outside the embassy that help keep items @a fee. If you want to risk that, no P.
Just weigh your options.
All the Best man.

Hi everyone
I hope we're doing well. So I was a late starter to this thread(literally a week before my interview) but to GOD be all the Glory, my VISA was approved. I'm sory if the formatting is wrong but this was how it went, extremely brief too.

Pursiuing: Bachelors at MHC.
COA: 10k
Course of study: Computer science and Psychology(although everyone is undecided until their sophomore ending)

Interview: Thursday , July 29, 2021
Consulate: Lagos, Walter Carrington
VO: Good morning
Me: Good morning sir
VO: So tell me what you're going to do in the US
Me: I'll be studying at MHC to pursue my undergrad degree in CS and Psychology (I should have said bachelors but oh well)
VO: So what will you do with that combination(He was interested in what I said at this point)
Me: Conduct research and build software for a Nigerian Organisation.(paraphrased version though, I spoke in-depth about this)
VO: Ok, who'll be funding you I see that most of your fees are covered by your school.
Me: My mother.
VO: What does she do?
Me: She's an entrepreneur.
VO: Alright, I'll be approving your VISA please come back in a few working days.....I didn't hear the rest.

And that was it guys, it wasn't more than 2 minutes. All I will say is, do quality r4search on your school and what your degree is going to achieve for you. They want to see that you know why you're going to school and you can actually afford it. Also, quote Mark 11: 24, believe in God's word and speak it into existence. God help you all in Jesus name, Amen.

Congratulations!! I got news that F-1 applicants were not attended to, did you see anything like that? Because it’s obvious there were F-1interviews yesterday.

If I'm switching from Lagos to Abuja, am I required to complete a new DS-160 for Abuja, or what's the right way to go about it?

Please how did you go about this, when you applied for the emergency appointment yesterday night, did you state it to then that your initial date which was 28th of July was cancelled . Please what was the reason you stated for the emergency, like the exact content of the message you gave them. My date was also cancelled and I’m also trying to get a new date.
Please help a sister. Thank you

Yes, but you have to pay those guys outside the gate, and they charge very ridiculous fees, u may even oay up to 5k.

My advice keep ur phone at home or anywhere.

Morning guys,

Gurus on the platform should please assist me with this questions.

My aunt is willing to borrow me some money for my masters program in US, would this be a reg flag to the Vo as to why someone who isn't directly related to me want to borrow me funds for tuition fee..

Or should I just say my Aunt is willing to sponsor my COA while my dad and I would be shouldering other expenses..

Then who can assist me with mock interviews please?

Thanks for your quick responses

Hi Everyone,

I just paid a new visa fee and I'm trying to book an appointment. The only date I see is 28th July, 2022. My school resumes in August 23, this year. Do I choose the appointment date for next year and apply for an emergency?

If yes, what do I need to do to apply for an emergency please
