VISA APPROVED GUYS! Spring 2022
Date: 21st September 2021
Location: Abuja
My first time going to the US Embassy but this forum has been instrumental to my practice and information, so I had to just post mine for others to see.
I was interviewed by a white woman.
VO: Good morning, pass me your documents.
ME: Good morning. Sorry before we start, I stutter a bit but I will be fluent as possible
VO: No problem
VO: I can see you are going to Texas A&M University
ME: Yes, that's right
VO: For masters in Engineering?
ME: Masters in Industrial Engineering.(I corrected her immediately)
VO: Okay
VO: What do you do?
ME: I work at an Engineering firm in Lagos as a Technical Officer.
VO: What will you be doing after your study?
ME: I will definitely be coming back to Nigeria to continue working at my current company as I have an offer of a managerial role upon my return.
VO: I can see you work at XXXXXXXX
ME: Yes (I repeated the company name)
VO: What do they do?
ME: They are into fabrication of tanks, water and sewage treatment systems
VO: Give me an approximate staff strength of the company
ME: We have two Offices. One in Lagos and other in Ibadan with an approximate of 60 staff in total.
VO: who is sponsoring your study?
ME: My Uncle will be sponsoring me, he has been sponsoring my education as a child.
VO: What does he do?
ME: He is a medical doctor and he owns two hospitals, one in Lagos and other in Ogun state.
VO: Is he in Nigeria?
ME: Yes he is (He actually just returned from the US so my response was a bit shaky).
VO: Ok, I will be approving your visa......... (I always read on here that people stops hearing what the VO is saying about Covid at this point) I literally didn't hear anything as well, different thoughts and emotions all at once.
I collected my white paper and in two days my passport was in Lagos.
It was just God, that's all I can say! 1 Like |

If you take it on Thursday, the result should be out that evening or by Friday morning. But inform your test centre about you flight plans. Amakapritty:

I have a friend applying for a visa with two of her children and we are wanting to get clarification on the following.
- Already understood we have to submit a ds 160 for each of the kids including the primary applicant, as well pay the visa fee for each of them.
- The primary applicant already created a CGI profile to apply for a visa and has included the kids as dependents. The question is do she have to create a separate CGI profile for the kids as well? We also see that if we add the dependent to the primary account, we are prompted to submit their visa application payment receipt number. if we do this, do the kids still need a separate CGI account or can the primary account suffice for all of them?
- The kids are 4 years and 1 year. Does she have to take the kids to the embassy for the visa interview?
your responses will be appreciated and helpful. |

My thoughts exactly! We can create a WhatsApp group of up to 24 members or more, where each member is assigned a specific time in a day to check for available interview dates and report to the group chat... Let's do this!

Good Morning Fam....ETSU is asking me to pay for the mailing of my I-20...Was surprised cos i do think its usually being sent to the student's email....Pls who has experienced this?
Thanks. There is nothing like payment for mailing i20, the web master is a thief, but with the look of things you will have to pay and change your email with the US school. Using your uni email doesn’t make sense at all,Use a personal on |

You do not need to create a separate CGI accounts for them. Just include them in the parents application. Fill separate DS 160 forms for all applicants and submit the number as well as the payment receipt number in the parent CGI once you click add dependent. This is so that you can get the same appointment time 1 Like |
