That’s so great... God really came through for you. Was it Lagos or Abuja? I am on the lookout for a closer date to resume on or before 12th of August 2022 but only got available date for 17th of May 2023.

Could you please tell me your strategy in getting the closer date as I am scheduled for Lagos.

Good day. I have a question with regards to POF.please how long should the funds be in my account before sending my statement of account to the school to aid in the processing of the i20 form.

Uuceee:
I have funding, I have sent mail to the school for deferment, but I have deferred before. If I submit another ds-160, can they see what I submitted in the previous one.

Ofcourse if you have attended interview before, your record of previous ds 160 can't be erased.They always have the records.

Work experience: 7 years as automobile engineer
Going for: masters in engineering
Funding-8500 (out of state Tuition waiver)
Deficit:44, 000k
Sponsor: Self
School: Texas tech university
Interview location: Abuja
Window 8

God used my baby for me as the guard gave nursing mothers chance to be interviewed first when he saw my wife breastfeeding him. So we were among the first set called in. I was the first to be interviewed by the white lady.
Please, go early and try to be interviewed first if possible. Our slot is 8:00am

After all the biometrics

VO: How old is your baby
Me: 14 months
VO: where do you work
Me: xyz auto garage ltd
VO: your company is at university of Ibadan? (she must have seen that on my ds160) I noticed she was checking my ds160 and I was actually very detailed when filling it. Please, fill your ds 160 form properly.

Me: Yes, in university of Ibadan
VO: nods head
VO: what are your job duties
Me: I am in charge of servicing of motor vehicle engines, ordering of vehicle parts from manufacturers and.... She cuts in

VO: what will this masters degree do for you
Me: (this was where I knew I goofed at first as everything I rehearsed flew away maybe because I was nervous). I will come back to Nigeria to establish my engineering consulting firm and take a better role at my place of work.
VO: Is it a thesis course
Me: No, it's a professional course for practicing engineers
VO: who will fund this deficit
Me: me, I already have savings that covers the two years from my real estate business. (she was still looking at my ds160 I guess. Because I added the real estate business under my job duties on the form). She cuts in but I can't remember what she said here.

She nodded and typed for long and like a magic... She kept our passports and gave us the almighty white paper. No document was checked even though I went with everything including my property documents.
F2 was not asked a single question after all the preparations.lol

Hint.. Avoid the...man at all cost. We were on the look out for him and
I prayed and I knew grace spoke for us.
Please if you believe in God fast and pray too, it worth it. Prepare like your life depends on it.
We took a step of faith by purchasing our travel bags before the interview day. I thank God for everything and everyone he used for us on this journey.

Thanks to
Moshkom, I was surprised to see him at our hotel to prep us. God bless you.

Then I thanked her very well and left


Now my story ☹️
My passport photograph was not the right dimension from the start the security woman complained but i get coconut head� I didn't want to leave the because I no wan start from back again so I continued. They complained like that in 4 different places but God just saw me through anyways (GRACE) please don't make my mistake. Then after every every the korea vo and this lady were doing at the same time and I was next. I know about don't profile a VO this and that but me I prayed against the korea guy sha
The white woman was just denying the guy na so me go stand for he back dey wait o
Later she used her hand to call me then I went

Final Words
Please pray the place of prayer can never be overemphasised.
I told God not because I deserve it that you sent Jesus to die for me now too not because I deserve this visa but let your grace speak for me
I fasted and prayed with some scriptures and i personalised them
Please wear something decent and nice don't say your dad/uncle has how many millions but you're dressed like a pauper.
I had my nails done but short just to boost my confidence (I like my nails done anyways) you can do what works for you
And again I say pray
God will bless boss moshkom for me ooo���� he's my Godsent
Thanks to all the people i met on this journey and your words of encouragement � it meant a lot to me
I wish everyone sucess in Jesus name Amen.

Ps: if you have a case that is beyond you please meet boss moshkom for help i know it sounds selfish since he's a very busy person but if you have to be selfish to get approved so be it. Just like Mary said to the disciples whatever boss moshkom ask you to do please do it.
God give us all testimonies Amen

ETSU undergraduate. Yet to get appointment date. Program start date August 2022.

Jaylo79:
Were you denied a visa within the last 6 months?

correct me if I am Wrong. If the first interview that led to denial wasn't pick through emergency, he can apply for Emergency inspite of the denial but if the first date was picked with emergency and get denied, one would have to wait for 6months before reapplying for emergency date
