Good day gurus in the house, thanks for always being there for us.
So I was filling my application and was asked of my contact in the US, I included my brother who is a citizen, also for parents, I filled in my mom who is PLR. Then I was asked about other siblings, do I need to still fill this as I have three sisters in the US. Is it necessary I include them or skip that question?
Thanks

I started my date search in February, I couldn't a closer date Until Mid March. The First date I got was September 18,then I kept hunting for it until I got April 4th and the reason I was able to get that date was because the Abuja Embassy released massive slots

Moshkom:


No fear, they will get back to you. Just keep tab on the email attached to the portal. Better still you can reach out to cgi via call or email to help you fasten the process (if possible).

Visa Status - Approved

My US Visa Journey

First I want to thank God almighty, for without him this wouldn't be possible. I also want to thank the various mock interviewers, Ayomide and team, Master P and Kwame, you guys are the best.

After filling my first ds160 without knowing much, u submitted and proceeded to CGI and chose Abuja, cos everyone said Abuja gives visa more than Lagos.
But there were no dates. My first date selection was in October and my Resumption Is in August. I didn't sleep most night looking for an earlier date.

Reached out to some agents for dates, some said 200k, another 150k etc.

Then dates became available in Lagos. I decide to cancel. Then the story of Lagos rejection rate started flying ard. I became scared and worried.

But I decided to trust God.

My interview ( The first lady, can't remember her window)

Me - Good morning Ma, I passed my documents before she asked.

VO - Good morning

VO- I see you're going for a PhD, what do you do?

Me - I am a lecturer at xyz, I teach 200 and 300 level students of xyz. I have worked for over 4 years and earn xyz anually.

VO - Why health Communication

Me - I chose Health communication because I want to become a Prof of Health communication, as well as because of the prevailing health issues in Nigeria like Lazza Fever. In 2022 Nigeria recorded over 172 deaths linked to Lazza Fever ( at this point she was nodding), and the state where I reside is among the states affected. This program will give me the necessary knowledge and research skills that I can apply to help fight several prevailing health and environmental issues in Nigeria.

VO- How many schools did you apply

Me - Three, University of xyz, university of xyz and Ohio University. I was accepted in two and on the waiting list of the 3rd. I choose Ohio University because Health communication in Ohio is broad in it's orientation and allows students to address topics ranging from narrative approaches to understanding health to Health message effects.

VO- are you married

Me - Yes

VO - what does your husband do

Me - My husband is a developer and he does ......

I saw her drop my passport inside the box and I knew my white paper was coming.

She brought out the white paper and my i20 and told me my passport will be ready in .... Days, pointed at my i20 to show my resumption date and I can't travel before then etc. Didn't hear other thanks.


P.S. - Please attend Mock interviews, they are very important and will prepare you for any question being asked. Dress comfortably, cos you will stand through out the process. Some pp wore slippers and tank tops and we're accepted. Be confident and audible. Finally Pray, God will guide you to the right VO.

P.S the bald man was at Immigrant section today 😁😁😁😁
