J2 are dependents just like F2, whatever applies to one applies to the other

Just wondering, did you apply for expedited appointment last year when you didn’t get a date?

Mzflexydeeva:
Hello house, please I just stumbled on this thread and I have a few questions.

1. Is there a thread for potential graduate students? If yes can someone share the link.

2. I will like to do WES evaluation and need some insight from those who have evaluated their credentials.

Thanks in advance

Help anyone

Unlike F2 holders, J2 holders are allowed to work

Good evening guys. A friend is inviting me to the US and hes taking care of the airfare. He sent me his credit card reading. Do i need a separate account statement from him for the B2 Visa interview ?

I have also printed my account statement. Urgent suggestions needed.

Nope, going with yours is fine.

Firstleoqueen:
Good morning house, is COVID-19 vaccine card required at the Point of entry in the US?? Someone was telling me to go get the card.

Thanks as I await your response.

Not needed. As of 12:01 a.m. EDT on May 12, 2023, noncitizen nonimmigrant air passengers no longer need to show proof of being fully vaccinated with an accepted COVID-19 vaccine to board a flight to the United States.

Definitely getting a ban. We’ve constantly proselytized how the use of agents does more harm than good for this F1 visa. Yet people still fall smoothly for their charms. The person has to live with the consequences.

When I began my journey to the US years back, I was also a novice. This platform and asking relevant questions helped me navigate through many discrepancies I had, and I understood the entire process from A-Z with not agents help. People can do better, and this results in a rippling effect as the VOs become more strict with stories like this.

I take God beg Una pls be careful o A friend of mine in the US just called that her friend (not someone I know personally) went for her interview today, she was self sponsored but the agent had edited her i-20 to show that she was funded by the school. She was granted the visa but it seems the VO checked the i-20 on his system after she left and realized there were two different things. They called her back using a public address system and the VO asked for her funding letter which she could not provide, he then collected her white paper, returned her passport /gave her 221g administrative processing letter and told her to send them the funding letter via the consulate email, ofcourse they will confirm from the school. I don’t think I need to tell you that this ll probably end in a visa ban. Agent is telling her to write email to school now to beg them for funding, even if it’s 5k.. see how crazy that sounds? He don commot hand. This will put the school, Nigerians in general, and even funded students on

Ideally, you should use your school address as the landing address. What’s your brothers status? Identifying you have a sibling in the US isn’t an outright denial. You just have to know their status hand the circumstance of their immigration. Family ties tells the VO is he absconded/misused his Visa type then there is a copious chance that you will replicate such.

Hello house,

I have been following this thread for a while now and have learnt a lot thanks to you guys who keep answering questions and giving your bright ideas.

Pls I have a serious concern.
My sister Inlaw is in USA on F1 visa last year meant to finish this year and my sponsor is her husband whom is my brother, also I put her US address as my landing address when I enter USA. Now I have two concerns:

1). Since her husband is my Sponsor, should I declare that I have a relation in USA on my DS 160 form or not??

2). Will my sponsor or the address info link me to her and show the VO that I actually have a relation in the USA if I say no(cos that’s what I really want to do)??
I appreciate your responses 🙏🏾

Can't you apply for special concessions from the embassy ?

I am sorry, what is special concession?

Muyideenwriter:

normally exemption can be made for people with severe medical conditions with approval from the embassy to be allowed passage without the rigors of airport officials...

You don’t need to go with your friend’s statement and I would advise that you avoid mentioning that your friend bought your ticket because it may suggest to the VO that you do not have enough funds to support yourself during your visit.

This is the right thread for potential graduates.

For WES, you can search on here. There are threads talking about it and also numerous posts on this thread about it.

Hello everyone,
Please are international students allowed to make hair for people as side hustle.

The only jobs you are legally allowed to do are on-campus jobs, unless you obtain special permission to work off campus.
Fast food or restaurant jobs on campus are usually easiest to get.

Pls when you get any favorable response, you can also add me 08189670735

Good day all,
Please I know it is possible to change school when one arrives in the US, is it possible to change the level too e.g changing from a Phd from Sch A to Msc to Sch B.

Thanks.

Hi Sammy, just reading this now, how did your Visa Interview go?

SammieLowkey:
Hello everyone.

My interview date is 1st week of July (first attempt). I’ve been practicing on likely questions all by myself but I would love to join any platform to rub minds and share tips and ideas.

Pls I will appreciate any link at all cos I’m still very much nervous as the date draws close.

TenaciousOrphan:


Mistake 1: Applying to schools that are higher than my profile
Mistake 2: not doing Wes evaluation
Mistake 3: using the wrong sop format
Mistake 4: Using UK English in writing instead of USA English.

Hello can I send a mail

Has anyone here tried to apply for emergency request in Lagos recently?
I just did and it is saying I cannot request at this time.
Just need to know if this is peculiar to me.

For those who feel down in all these challenges, don't be! You might have been denied visa, got rejected in your applications, pending GA offers; please don't give up!


Just Keep Keeping doing the right things.
