Hello guyz please I need your input as I am in the process of completing my CGI profile.

A few years ago when I was in the higher institution, a agency claimed that they have gotten approvals from my school to organise a trip for us to Washington DC. We applied for the visa and our interview was in batches. When the first set went for the interview they discovered that the consent of the head of my school was not obtained, so I didn't bother to go for my interview the next day.

Now after filling in my details on the CGI profile, I am getting a notification that my details matches with what they have on the database and the username of the information which is similar to mine is a different email address that does not belong to me neither do I have access to it (I believe the agent that applied for us then caused this).

The notification is requesting I transfer my current info to that profile but I am scared because I don't have access to that mail and neither does it belong to me.

Kindly assist with possible solutions.

@Moshkom and others please assist

Good day boss!

It’s not a biggie issue, just take time and your airtime to call the embassy care, and/or email them with the error message snapshot.

I guess you still have the same passport number as before, reason the details are ‘marching’, if not; you should be fine. Anyhow sha, kindly do the above; like i said it’s not a big issue, so keep calm boss.

Goodluck Champ!

yes bro I am using the same passport number. Thanks for the input, I will call them tomorrow.

Ok

Does anyone know what time the embassy opens officially?

Is it 8am or 9am?

What's the best time to get to the Abuja embassy for an appointment time of 7:30am?

I once read that the queue as at 4/5am sometimes in Lagos is always crazy.

Get there by 7am, there are some things to do (checks) before the interview

To anyone planning to migrate to the USA, don’t let anyone discourage you. They will tell you all sorts of stories that the grass ain’t greener on this side, don’t get me wrong, America ain’t for the lazy, you have to work work work, but as long as you work smart? You will enjoy the fruits of your labor. I moved here in 2018 and my uncle discouraged me and told me to go back to Nigeria, I left, hustled and strived on my own, fast forward to today, 4 years later, I’m expecting my green card in the mail next week, I’m at the last stage of nursing school with a great GPA and I am living comfortably with a good paying job while schooling. Mind you I studied International relations in Naija with no knowledge of science but here I am today almost ready for nursing graduation. So if you want to come here, come!
By the way, any student who is coming here, if u need a place to lay your head reach out to me I have a spare room! Someone helped me when I moved here back then so I am returning the favor. But after 1 to 2 weeks Biko find your way oh lol

Princessemily:
okay

Did you apply too?

Good Afternoon, I have an offer from Arizona State University for Fall 2022. Is there anyone who has an offer with ASU and has commenced the necessary steps for a Student Visa? I need someone who has commenced the process to guide me on how to proceed. My priority task section requests an upload of my MMR immunization. How and where can I get an MMR vaccine card from Nigeria? How do I go about the SEVIS fee thing, I-20 and all?

Also, my international passport will be expiring in Dec 2022 and renewal is 6 months before the expiration date. Will this hinder the process of getting a student visa?

I desperately need a response so I’ll know what next to do.

If still in need of the MMR vaccine, try Kizito clinic at lekki, Jakande or so.

Cheers!

Thank you for responding.

Hello Debbie,

I saw your message on f2 visa. I tried sending you a mail to ask you few questions if you don't mind . I don't really know how to use naira land . I hope u see this msg. I had to click on quote to send this.

Debbiey:
Good morning all.

Please I need help. My interview is in about 7 working days time.

Still looking for what I can present as strong home/work tie.

I'm an F2. Hubby left for study in January. We're just 10 months married.

My work experience is not encouraging at all.

Finished B.Sc 2010
Finished MPH 2015

Taught in secondary schools for like 3 years.

Volunteered in a public health NGO for 1 year.

But now, I'm self employed. I do bead works. That's my main job. However, on the side, I teach mathematics private lessons to students & I'm also an Admin staff for my husband's start up biz.

What exactly can I put down to reflect work ties among all of these disjointed pieces that are not even related to my course of Study?

����

Good morning. I trust we are doing great.

I am an incoming graduate student at the University of Delaware (Fall 2022). I have been trying to fill out the DS 160 form for the past three days now but I have encountered glitches that barely take me beyond the first registration page.

Please I want to confirm if anyone else is aware of this, and what can possibly be done about it.

Thank you.

Good day all, pls how is the current SAT score scheduled, I’m a aware it is maths and English, but what are the total marks for each, what score can be seen as a good score atleast, God bless you for helping a brother??

Well, it would have been better if you haven’t schedule any date, because earlier dates will still be opened.

Nothing spoil tho. Since you have selected a date already, you’ll have to wait till 60 days to your program start date to request for expedited appointment. That should be June 26th or 27th.

dydx2020:
Thanks for your response.
I have been able to schedule and got Nov 17th but program start date is August 26th
Now what's next ?

Play around on their website, you’ll see where you’ll download the F-1 International Funding Document (IFD) form. You’ll fill your details and your sponsor details, then your sponsor will contact his/her bank to write a letter confirming the availability of the funds you fill in the IFD form in the account.

Send an e-mail to your program cord to get more info.

Hello there.
I am waiting for a decision for Illinois state university.
What about you?
Have you been accepted?

I'm waiting for same. Please can we connect?

Chimeziechukwudi0@gmail.com

sfApase:


I am here o

have you been given admission?

Please any update from Abuja embassy if there is date as Lagos is not having favorable date for my program start date 12 May

peejay03:
Could anyone help with this please?

You can ask your parents if you were vaccinated when you were little. Ask them to check their files for Measles, Mumps and Rubella. If they cannot find it, then visit any clinic or general hospital around you. Worst case scenario, u can get the shot at ASU students health center once u arrive US for a fee.

As regards SEVIS fee payment pls visit https://www.fmjfee.com/i901fee/index.html and fill out your details correctly and remember to have your I-20 handy cos your SEVIS ID will be required. Print your confirmation. I think I heard that GTBank now receive payment for that, if not ask a friend in the US to help you make the payment.

Lastly, I'm not too sure about the international passport expiration, but I think it should work because its validity exceeds 6 months. So you can always renew it once u get here. Hope that helps...

Stands to be corrected...Comments, addition , Omission, contribution is welcome

Svelte98:
Hey, I don't know if anyone has answered you yet, so I hope this helps.

I'm actually in the same shoe as you (not with Virginia Tech though, mine is ETSU). I'm waiting on them to make GA decisions which will take place between April to June.
Personally, I'm hopeful that I'll be given an offer atleast by the second week of May so I can start working on my I-20 and visa application, since my program starts in August.

Here's what you can do; you can start processing your I-20 with your personal funds and see if you can secure a visa date.
If during the process, the GA funding is given to you, you can always print out the offer letter and go with it to your visa appointment and try and explain to the V.O when you're asked about funding.
Just my two cents.



Its a win-win situation.

Cheers!

good to see someone that has been given admission to study at ETSU, can we connect, please?

Visa approved
