Heya93:
I just got a mail from the embassy. They attached a firm that requires my info, including bio data, work experience, addresses lived jn the last 15 years, social media handles, email addresses and phone numbers used in the last five yrs, and also names and date of birth fo all my siblings.

For a reason I don't know, I was not able to download my ds-160 form after completion. Immediately I ckecked to download, I was logged out, and when I logged in, I couldn't access it again. I had the options (till date) of downloading only the confirmation page ( I don't know if anyone has experienced such).

My issue now is, particularly in work experience, my dates where not accurate. The only two jobs I filled in are my undergraduate trainee and an online freelance editing jobs, of which there was no official termination. Hmece, I just chose random dates. Now, bcus I can't access my ds-160 form, I can't remember the exact dates I filled in. Could this have gracious implications? I'm just confused. Please help if you can

macron:


No I used 560/$, if I use 420/$ it would have been about 5m left. Please what do you advise I do? Should I reapply an fund the account further or?

NigPatriot:


You want to spoonfed, but it's fine.
Click on "continue" then you'll see a calendar showing dates. Select anyone you find convenient, after doing this. You'll check the left hand side of the icons and see "emergency request"then proceed and do the needful. I'm sorry but if you still don't get it, I have no other explanation to give you.

Abuja Embassy
First Attempt, no travel history.
School: Georgia State University
Course: French Studies
Funding:$36,140 (full tuition waiver + GTA)
Deficit: $15, 603.

V.O : Good morning.
Me: Good morning.
V.O: I see you're to Georgia State University to study French Language.
Me: Yes.
V.O: And I see you have a Graduate assistanship?
Me: Yes.
V.O: You have a deficit. Who's going to pay for it?
Me: My uncle. He is a pharmacist.
V.O: What will this course do for you?
Me: I will come back to my organisation (mentioned it) where I will seek to move to the Academy being built by ECOWAS to lecture. I was a French Facilitator at one of our training schools before being deployed to Abuja. (I can't remember if I said all this or it was in my head, but I already planned on saying it. So, I guess it came out fine).
V.O: So, you're saying that you will come to work with ECOWAS Academy, right?
Me: No. Migration Academy being built by ECOWAS.
V.O: Okay.
She typed for a while, maybe 30 seconds and then reached out for the white paper.
V.O: shd7dunxokjyyfghjj I-20 hdieijks safe js7eiejnznsj Corona virus djdururjzozxxbbt. I didn't hear anything except these few words. I was just nodding and smiling.

All praise to God because the sequence of questions were not followed, she was answering the questions she was supposed to ask me. Questions like why the US and not France I was expecting was not asked. I give God all the praise. I've been on this journey since last year. I got this admission for Summer 2021 but deferred to Spring 2022. I'm so glad to have a Graduate Coordinator who is understanding. She assured me my funding will be intact and that I can defer.
Thanks to you all that has been helping with tips, encouragement and transcripts. God bless you all.
If you believe in God, hold him tight, tell him what you want and stand on it. I nearly lost faith with all the denials here but I started speaking scriptures to myself. God is good don't put him aside. God bless you all.

haywhy17:


I dont understand what you want people to tell you after getting this reply. you want to be told to go ahead that you would eventually be given I-20 to go the embassy? or you dont really understand the english that was used in that reply?.....we Nigerians are so funny

Feexo:
I got my visa in July, 2014 and this thread was really helpful at the time. I just want to pray from the bottom of my heart for all those seeking the U.S. student visa on this thread; God will grant your heart desires.

Amen and amen �
My brother how was the trip, school and everything over there?

samuel321:


No need to panick. You can retrieve 90% of the info you filled in your already submitted ds-160 even if you failed to take notes of all what you filled.

Just go to the site and click on retrieve application. After you’ve done that by filling your confirmation code and answering the questions asked. You will be shown two options which are ‘view confirmation page and create a new application ‘.

Click on ‘create a new application and you will be given a new confirmation code. Note that this new confirmation code won’t affect your previously submitted confirmation code so far you don’t submit the new one you are given.

After you’ve been given a new confirmation code and about to start filling your application, 90% of the details you filled in the old confirmation code will already be in the new code you’re given, just keep clicking on next till you get to the part you need your information from. And do not submit this new code when you get what you need, I do t know if it will affect your old code but it’s better you just exit after you’ve gotten what you need

walepepe21:


No mentioning the name of your sponsor on your i-20 is what many even prayed for, so you are SAFE as it doesn’t portend any danger at all.

samuel321:


Fall 2022 resumes around August, 2022 and I doubt you’ll even be attended to at the embassy because the 120days rules will only begin to count starting from April.

You could have just deferred you admission to spring 2022 which resumes on January 2022 and will request for an EA 60days to your school start date. Even without requesting for the EA, dates will come up for you to reschedule, dates in Nov/Dec has been popping up once in a while since last month.

So even if your school sends you the fall 2022 I-20 today, you still won’t meet the 120days rule since fall semester resumes on August. It means you will have to reschedule to April upwards

Femotech123:
Hello please which school can anyone recommend for me for my bachelor degree
I’m currently with my high school transcript
My duolingo English test scores is 85/160
Please can I see school who can give me admission with scholarship with that my duolingo score.
Note: I’m doing my research about it also but just incase anybody know sure school that can accept that. Thanks in advance

tmann626:
Please rewrite your duolingo test. That score is kinda low. most schools do request for 100-120 for duolingo.

Shanid:
Hello EVERYONE, PLEASE I DONT UNDERSTAND SOMETHING, DOES THE 60 DAYS RULE TO APPLY FOR AN EMERGENCY APPOINTMENT START FROM THE EARLY DATE OR CLASSES START DATE??

Queengel:
please is this Duolingo better than sat exam for

McGV:
It doesn't, go ahead and apply.

Queengel:
please is this Duolingo better than sat exam for undergraduate scholarship

tmann626:
Nope. Duolingo is an English proficiency test. Just like Toefl or IELTS.

NigPatriot:
Some people come here just to seek information, as soon as they get their visa. They disappear into thin air. For Some, even the least thing you can do which is to post your transcript, you still don't.

Thats why I've even stopped replying DMs on here.

Lets all be doing the "me, myself and I" lifestyle and see how far it leads us then.
