Very possible.
I heard the testimony of a lady whose passport/visa was ready same day.
She told the lady she couldn't wait till the following week cos she hd to travel that weekend and pleaded.
The lady went in, came out later and Gabe the girl her passport/visa.
That one was God.
What you believe is what will work for you.
Speak it into existence with Faith.

Abdulize:


How can passport be ready the next day? Big lie jare

For someone currently taking a term remotely while still working in his home country.

When filling DS-160,
should his current status be Student and fill his employment as last place of work?
Or just fill his employment as his current status? (But that way he won't have chance of filling he has started classes already on DS 160)

Please advise.

Good morning everyone,
Most of the schools have been applying to do exempt me from English Language requirements.
However, I would like to know if ToEFL or IELTS won't be a requirement for Visa processing?
Thanks.

Good afternoon everyone,

I was denied visa in August, I had to defer to Spring and I just got my updated form I-20. I tried reapplying for a date last night, and was told that there was no date available in Abuja. Before trying to pick a date, there was a place where I was asked if I have been denied within the past 2 months, which I selected. Could that be the reason why I could not pick a date? Or who else is experiencing the same thing?


Yes. You need to wait after 2months before reapplying

People of God, I didn't want to post anything about this very weird experience of mine initially but I thought Bleep it, just share it with these people, they've been good to you. They can learn ( or unlearn as the case may be). So here goes the event:

The VO: Next
Me: I walked up to him. He even greeted me first and I responded appropriately.
VO: Please pass your documents and passport
(I forwarded them to him)
VO: He starts typing. He typed and typed and typed and typed.
Me: I waited patiently initially but then after 30 seconds of typing without any verbal interaction I started some shifting movements to get his attention.
VO: So I can see here you have a graduate assistantship award.
Me: Yes, but it's actually a Teaching Assistantship that comes with... (VO cuts me here)
VO: It's OK and continues typing.
Me: At this point I was getting worried. In my mind I was begging him : please ask me something, anything.. Pleaseeee. I have waited 3 months to secure this date.. Please look at meeeeee. (Crying inside)
VO: (Coughs) Unfortunately at this time you're not eligible for a visa but you may apply at a later date. ( passes the dreaded blue paper)

People of God, I was stunned. Like am I dreaming? What just happened. All my mock interview preparations and sleepless nights wasted.

Let me give you all the background. My school resumed classes for fall on August 23. I told the school I couldn't secure a date o, that I want to defer to January 2022. The school say I should calm down, they will allow all international students to resume late until September 20. As a proof of that extension, the school issued me a new i20 with this new information written in all CAPS in the remark section of the i20: ​"WE WILL ALLOW THIS STUDENT RESUME LATE UP TO SEPTEMBER 20" .
In addition, they also issued me a letter to present at the embassy and at point of entry into the United States.
But as you can all see, I didn't say pim at the embassy today. I have not fully comprehended this experience.

Moral lesson: No matter how qualified you think you are or how packaged your documents are or how sharpened your tongue is, pray for good luck�. I was very very unlucky today but I still thank God.



So sorry. I was denied too. D VO started with asking questions about my last trip to the US. Have u been to the US b4? I said yes. When and how long did u stay? Wat did u go 2 do. I told him i went in 2019 to have my baby & stayed 2months. (NB- I cant tell lies its i my records). He asked where i stayed. I said i rented an apartment. He asked if i have other kids. I said yes. He said and all were born in the US. I said yes.
Then he remembered i came for F1 visa. Took my i20 asked who are my sponsors and what they do. I said my mum is a guidance consellor and my husb is a manager in oil and gas and i work in a multinational daily company. He asked for account statement. I gave him one with my husb and i's US joint acct and mums acct. He said how did u open a US acct. I said we travel often. Who is in d US. I said nobody. He said i thought you said your mum is in d US. I said no. He said by US laws u r not allowed to have this type of visa. Read the blue paper 4 more informatn. No questns about my skol or course

If you have been following this thread well, you will see that you can only apply for emergency 2 months to your resumption date.
Keep checking, you might see a closer date and if you didnt see till November then apply for emergency. I stand to be corrected.

Dear all, good afternoon. I just joined this platform.

I have some questions on sponsor.

My husband got admitted Uni of Georgia. Has Graduate assistance-ship with tuition waiver.

Can we use his supervisor as sponsor. In order to cover for about $4k deficit.

Oshey the shifter. this no be insult but why were you shifting to get attention? Do you think the vo didn't know someone is standing in front of him? We can only imagine your shifting movements...we don't know how extreme the movement was at that moment. You have a tuition waiver plus stipend and assistantship, waited 3months for a date only to be impatient and start exhibiting your shape shifting skills after 30seconds...nawa
We know it's not just by documents or grace of God but there's something called profiling based on your behavior at that moment..but last last na you know how you take shift from white paper enter blue.
Good luck bro next time but don't be shifting anyhow (coughs)
you really lack emotional intelligence, some of you are just stupidly dumb and inexperienced, but you make things up in your head and spill out the nonsense. You can always keep quiet when you have nothing meaningful to say. Do you know all it takes to get to this point of getting interviewed? Do you know the amount of strength it takes for a person who got denied to talk about the denial Do you know how devastating being denied visa takes? If you have nothing meaningful to say just keep quiet! And move on!

Many of you are so uncouth! You just want to be noticed by all means!

The problem is from your DS-160 or profile! Something must have raised a red flag on their system

If I may ask, do you have an relative or family in the USA that absconded after getting visa ?

Did you fill your DS-160 yourself ? Hope you didn’t make use of agent that might have filled in wrong or implicating info ?

Also, what is the name of your school ? I learnt some schools are blacklisted
stop making unnecessary assumptions. Whats all these nonsense, absconded relative?

Have you been interviewed before? Did you get the visa or not?

You better know right now that visas can be denied even if everything is okay. Know that and know oeace
