A friend of mine who would joining her husband on F2 was at Lagos embassy today (22 July 2022) for interview.

After very few questions like, how long have you been married (5years), how long are you staying in the US (6weeks), etc, she said the VO smiled and gave her a white paper and returned her passport to her and said she would be contacted via email.

On the white paper, it was indicated "Administrative processing and no document is required from applicant".

Please guru in the house, those that have experienced similar issue should explain what they meant by administrative processing and how many days it takes for embassy to contact applicants.

Will really appreciate your contributions... Thanks

Hello everyone, I'm new in and I just want to share my interview experience and hoping to get some advice on it... I was denied of an American visa. It was F1 Visa, I planed on going as an undergraduate. My first attempt. The questions asked are;
Why USA: Told them it's because of the great educational system, the universal laungauge is English which isn't a problem for me cause I can speak fluently in it as I won't have a problem settling down also the distance isn't far from my home country

School: Montclair State University

Why I'm leaving my current study in Nigeria to start all over afresh in US. This is where I think the problem is, I told them it's because of the educational system in my country which has given me set back, the strike and [b]also because the course given to me by my uni isn't my choice of study[/b and I want to go study my most preferred course in the country that has best educational system.

I intend on going for it again before the resumption of my school which is Jan. I don't know what happened and I just need advice on what to do or say and what the problem could have been

How can I do publications and which journal will you recommend that has a lower fees

justwise:
Strange that this very active thread has suddenly got quiet since this issue of fraud was brought here. It goes to show how terrible some Nigerians are.

Nobody is making money from group search dates.

Boyco:
No agent can magically create date, them too spend time on the site waiting for available dates to show up...i remember when i needed a date and i almost paid 150k to one agency, i was lucky enough to get sense and checked dates for myself till i got a closer date before my program resumption next year summer. I repeat, agents cant manufacture dates. They do what everybody else is doing, which is checking the sites constantly and get paid for it.

A friend of mine got PhD offer in the US. He has families and 2 kids. Since these kids will probably constitute nuisance and won't allow him to focus on his studies, can he forget about his family in Nigeria and tell his wife to find another husband? Going to the US is a big achievement and nothin should come in the way of that. Most times, it's better to forget about your parents in Nigeria and move anyways. That way you won't get bogged down with their issues while trying to figure your life abroad

alphabbey1:

You hardly see anyone moving to US and pack family along... They go first, then family follows later....
US goverment take kids upbringing very serious. You have to give them 100% attention and care. Any carelessness noticed from you can cause your deportation...
If you are still yet to find your feet, its best to leave your children in Nigeria.

Gokoyer1401:
Nairaland here recently, there are more F2 visa refusals when they wanted to join primary applicant than when all of them (F1 and F2) apply together.

farggie:
It is evident you are ignorant of the merits of F1 traveling with his/her spouse and kids to the US, then your statement is spurious, baseless, unfounded and should be ignored by F1 and F2 applicants. I talk from experience.

NightCyrax:


Hardly bawo? The way Nigerians generalize baffles me so much. They just sit down, formulate scenarios and try to shovel them down our throats. Wonderment!!

Aside the financial implications, it is completely right and easier to move with one's family. In fact, that on its own is enough proof of not wanting to elope with their women. The only issue that may arise is the F1's inability to justify the funds meant to defray the F2s' expenses.

Omolayo199:
Please everyone, I need your intervention on my this. My dad is the US and he paidy SIVES using his home address..... Since I noticed that, I've been mailing homeland security to help me change my address that the person that paid for me used his address not my own but no response from them. I called them, they said they have lots of issues to address and they are addressing them according, so they sent a confirmation mail. I printed it out and took it along to the embassy.

At the foundation, we create awareness, educate and support sickle cell patients. we also have an insight on how to help the sickle cell patients by encouraging them, advicing them on living healthy and knowing the danger signs. (cuts me off)
