jermer25: Please avoid unnecessary issues that can destabilize you at the embassy. Your Passport, just like any official document, is the government's property. Once it's stolen, misplaced, or for whatever reason, you don't have it anymore please go and get a police report and or an affidavit and take it to the embassy on your interview day These oyibo people do not trust any kind of excuse or explanation. Avoid being delayed or sent back. Go with an affidavit and you will be let off the hook. This is my 2 cents. Thank you. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

In Nigeria, you should bring your expired passport when you come for the new one so that it will be stamped "canceled without prejudice" and give it back to you and the diplomats know that. Some countries do retrieve your old passport from you at renewal but not Nigeria. Svelte98: 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Svelte98(f): 8:57pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
Osidowu:Yes it's a personal experience. I've renewed 2 passports so far, was asked to submit the first one after renewal back in 2017 and when I went to renew the second one last month, after the biometrics I was told that I'd have to submit the expired one when I come to pick up the new passport. So I'm genuinely surprised people actually go home with the expired passport after renewal. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Hi guys, it seems getting a date for interview is like passing through the eyes of a needle. My program starts in May and the earliest date I’ve seen is in September. Can we request for emergency appointment at this point in time? Thanks mate |

excel1960: Have you confirmed the application portal is open for fall 2022 session? |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Osidowu(m): 9:23am On Feb 15, 2022 |
bigheadday: Your Program starts in May and you are still looking for normal date. You can request for an EA and get a favorable date. The date could be in this month sef. My friend's program also starts in May, he requested for EA on Jan23 and got an interview date for Jan27. I know there is a standard procedure but sometimes it's not the case. Don't delay yourself. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Planner99: in answering your question, your chances are up to you, For a US visa application - there is never a level of certainty; the best you can do is be prepared. Something you should note again is that the F1 visa and B1/B2 visa are independent/separate visas - though your information when applying should be coherent for both. So, if your visit visa is approved and your F1 is refused after, they would not cancel your already existing visa (except that has changed) Your case requires you to be able to set your priority in its best preference that suits you. Firstly, what timeline do you have in pursuing your masters program - you have a good record with regards to your previous travel. if I were you I would apply for a student visa. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Ezichi123: Though this most certainly won't be the sole reason for your denial, why did you contradict yourself (Look at where i highlighted) Also what consular office did you use? In Nigeria? 1 Like |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Osidowu(m): 11:06am On Feb 15, 2022 |
djkolz: Yes, but on paper. Reality could come in different shades and colors. Sometimes following all the rules in the book could lead you nowhere. This US journey na risk, packaging and strategy. There is a system that generates and approves all these requests and it can approve or deny your request anytime. You can wait till April or May and still not get your EA approved. It's a possibility. Shoot your shot early enough when there is still room to reshoot. 7 Likes 2 Shares |
