If he's using his company's account, pls let him write a sponsorship letter on the company's letter headed paper. He has to do this because company's acct is not his own. It's company's own.

Good luck.

Hello guys, I am new here.
Please, how did you get the previous surge date for Dec 1? I sent my documents via the respective email on Dec 3 but I haven't received any response. I compiled all the documents into one pdf. I didn't go through the other protocol to apply for expedited date.

Please, I want to be sure I am on track. How long does it take them to respond?

Than you.

VISA Approved today, December 6th, 2021 in Abuja.

School: University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.

Program: PhD Chemical Engineering.

COA: $41483
Funding: $46298

Time Slot: 09:15 am but I got there around 08:00 am and was interviewed around 11:00 am.

Only one VO attended to Non-Immigrants - the bald white male (without glasses).

While outside, I noticed a lot of people left with blue papers. When I got in, this trend continued including one going for her master's in public health with her family.
For the white paper rain, four people before me were approved in a row. The first was a guy going for his MS (Finance or something in that line). He is an accountant and got a loan of about #6 million for his program. Next is a lawyer going for a visit/vacation. He had been to the US on two occasions (One for his nephew's graduation and second, for a visit to his sister in California). The third is a guy going to Georgia State University for his MS (Biology or Virology. I couldn't hear him well). He had a deficit of around $780. The fourth is a lady going to Georgia State University for her MS too. She has a deficit of around $14k.

Now, my turn.

Vo: (While stepping forward to him) Can I have your documents, please?
Me: Yeah, sure. Good morning!

Vo: Good morning.
Me: How are you today?

Vo: Fine. Have you traveled out before?
Me: No, I have not.

Vo: Place your fingers on the fingerprint scanner.
(I did exactly as he instructed).

Vo: What University are you going to?
ME: I am going to the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville for my PhD degree in Chemical Engineering.

Vo: Why did you choose this school?
Me: I chose to join University of Arkansas for a number of reasons:
First, my research interest is in the area of membrane separations and Professor Wickramasinghe is a leading researcher in this area. He is currently working on membrane separations for biofuels to solve the problem (I had a lot to talk about but he didn't give me enough chance to state my reasons for choosing this school. He nodded and cut me)

Vo: What do you do?
Me: I am lecturer at the chemical engineering department, OAU. I teach first year and second year undergraduate courses in biochemical engineering and chemical separations. I also assist professors with research activities and guide students with homework and research activities.

Vo: What will you be coming back to do?
Me: I will be returning to my work as a lecturer I and set up my lab where I can continue my research and at the same time mentor young minds for the future.

Vo: Do you have any friends or family members in the US?
Me: No, I don't have any one in the US.
(He typed for a while and said the golden words).

Vo: Everything looks okay. I will be recommending your visa for approval. This paper will explain how you will pick up your passport in 2-3 days. Take this I-20 with you always.
Me: Thank you. Have a great day.

PS: The above was my fourth attempt. The first three attempts were for MS Chemical Engineering at SDMines without funding.

Hello All,
Please help with advise.

I already secured a surge date for next week. Is it possible and advisable to complete a new DS 160 and update it in CGI?

I need to update a critical info on the DS160.

please advise.
Thanks


Please, help!
Does one need to go through CGI first before applying for surge date. I already applied for surge but have gotten no response. I'm guessing it's cause I have no account on CGI

Thanks

My sister’s F1 visa was approved yesterday,

22nd November 2021
Abuja
First Timer,

Southern New Hampshire University
Business Administration and Management
She got a 20% scholarship
Msc

The VO asked to see her sponsor’s SOA (My mom) and what she does, went through each page of the SOA, and asked how long my sister has been working with Globacom.

No question about the school.

please help us ask and share your sisters Transcript as it will be very helpful to many of us here.

Please, how did you get the previous surge date for Dec 1? I sent my documents via the respective email on Dec 3 but I haven't received any response. I compiled all the documents into one pdf. I didn't go through the other protocol to apply for expedited date.

Please, I want to be sure I am on track. How long does it take them to respond?
