You don't have to listen anymore this thread is no longer active. Nigerians are already ditching USA visa for other destinations. Shame!
You guys have to solve your internal problems first before you try to help others. You have a Dictator as your ruler, mass shootings and internal massacre everywhere, racism, bigotry and other vices.
These are early RED flags and indicators of a failing nation.

@USmissionNGAR
I have a peculiar and unsolved case. Last year I applied for F1 visa after many expediated request, this follows the unfortunate shut down of the embassy in Abuja. After the interview I was handed a letter of denial under 214g. However was unable to go for my postgraduate since the school had resumed and lecture commenced
This year I decided to renew my B2 visa but my account stated I have a follow up interview . Called and sent several emails to book appointment because my page keeps giving me error after showing the earliest appointment dates The us agents I called said the case has been escalated and I should be patient and consular section wouldn’t help. It’s been over 3 months and this has not been resolved. What can I do as I need to make travel plans soonest.
Thanks in anticipation for your response

Hi codeline,

I encountered the exact same issue (see the attached). May I ask if your friend has solved this problem? Very looking forward to your reply. It's emergency - I applied for the emergency interview in China and should reschedule the appointment in 5 days however the staffs of the consualrs here have started 6-day national holidays and they probably will not deal with it during the holiday...

Hi USMission,

A friend is currently trying to book an appointment date for his wife (Dependent) and self after requesting for emergency date. But getting this error "your group size is larger than the current allocation" What should he do? He has reported the case but nothing has been done.

Hello USMissionNGRA,
Good day
I had written to seek clarification on what happens if my emergency request elapses without an available date. This was after I called the support unit twice on two different days. I called the support to complain that each time I logged in, all I got was "your group size is larger than your current allocation." Support explained to me that it was because the embassy had not made available any dates. Just yesterday, I logged in 6 times till I exhausted my maximum allowable login times. My emergency request was approved on the 9th of June, 2022. I have since been logging in at least 3 times a day, as recommended by the support agent. All I kept seeing was a message saying "your group size is larger than your current allocation."

I am a J-I visa applicant. My research visit starts on the 24th of July, 2022.
I was given until June 13th, 2022, within which I must schedule a new appointment. I will no longer be eligible for any emergency requests.

This morning, I logged into the site to re-schedule an emergency appointment, I noticed my emergency approval was gone. I have shown due diligence in getting an emergency appointment. I did everything within my power to avoid this scenario.

Please, what will I do in a situation like this?

Hello,

I need to reach the AbujaNIV section to appeal for an expedited F1 interview.

Can any one share the correct email address for them? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Thanks.

How do I track a passport after visa was issued? The new system cannot tell me where my passport is even after creating a ticket. Can you help me track my passport?

Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We're Listening Pt. 3 by ayotycoon(m): 4:35pm On Dec 11, 2024

Did you get your passport ? If so how long did it take ?

Could not track it online. Went to the courier location I was supposed to get it from and they directed me to a place on V.I. Hundreds gathered outside to collect their passports. Finally did.
