I've been trying to book a new appointment after denial and I keep getting the error "Duplicate appointment found for this user".
Please does anyone have a fix for this?
I'm using a new DS160 number
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by MiracleOla4433: 7:28am On Nov 23, 2024
Thank you so much for your response.
That means they should approve this coming week by God's Grace. I was actually worried. I also created ticket and called them.
Have you come across anyone they didn't respond to at all after waiting for a month?
Have you also done your interview?

Good morning everyone, has anyone here ever gotten their visa approved using MPOWER? Your answer would go a long way for me to plan. Because I already got a refusal this year for USA visiting b1/b2.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by meizoos(m): 12:02pm On Nov 23, 2024
Yes. You only need to present your case very well to the VO.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by Lovequee: 12:27pm On Nov 23, 2024
[quote author=meizoos post=132998973][/quote]It's Lagos
But mine is pending pre-approval request
Do you mean I should use the format you send and attach my visa receipt because I'm yet to get an appointment if my pre-approval request has not been approved
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by meizoos(m): 12:37pm On Nov 23, 2024
I don't think there is any format for pending pre approval request. However, you can use the format I sent earlier. It will suffice for it also.

But you can chill first, let me do more research.

Does anyone have a better answer? If you do please send

We are so many o. I sent them message on navigator twice but no response. They only responded to the ticket I created and I should wait.
Try and send the message, they might respond to you. I pray Lagos approve us soon. Next week will be exactly 1 month, I've been waiting.

Hello I am a new member of this forum. I recently graduated from UNN with a GPA in 3.4 in Pure and Industrial Chemistry and I am interested in applying for my PhD in Chemistry for Fall 2025. I am preparing to take the GRE test and also searching for some schools online but I am open to receiving any recommendations for schools that offer funding for PhD in Chemistry for Fall 2025. Thank you.

Goodevening everyone. Please i need some guidance. My visa was approved and CEAC site shows issued. Im a bit confused on how to pick up my passport now as it seems things have changed recently from how it used to be . I really need guidance urgently please 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hello everyone, i just want to give back to the group as i got immense information from here during my whole visa process. I have picked up my passport.
So if youre picking up your passport this period, first track the status on CEAC and wait for it to show issued, then proceed to OIS WEBSITE, register, select usa visa , then “pick up”, afterwards it will prompt you to enter your passport number to confirm if it is ready for pickup. If it is ready, it will show ready for pick up, go ahead and book an appointment still on the OIS website to pick up at OIS OFFICE. Print out the appointment letter and carry to ois office to collect your passport.
I didn’t wait for any mail, I didn’t even receive one.

People are not sharing transcripts again, they just come here to ask how to pick up their approved visa.
For me, I applied via interview waiver for VISA renewal and was issued my J1 VISA some days ago. But I am grateful for the community here and people taking their time to share tips and thoughts et cetera!

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by meizoos(m): 2:07pm On Nov 24, 2024
Thank you boss,but there's no any option to cancel the request
KingsCollege80s:
Hello.

1. Pre-approval request should not take too long to be approved for F1 visa applicant because the embassy are aware of your resumption dates.

2. However, majority of the F1 visa applicants are making the initial appointment booking processing error. I will recommend you follow the following guidelines in order to avoid a longer or permanent pending pre approval request:

3. If possible , walk in to First bank to make MRV payment physically instead of other payment options. (This does not mean that other options are not valid).

4. Fill the visa application (Ds 160) first and completely submitted before you proceed to avits profile for appointment requests.

5. In the Question, Do you have a specific travel plans (in your Ds 160) , Answer Yes .

6. Print your Form I 20 and sign it before uploading it to your avits profile .

7. Be certain to have paid SEVIS fee with Evidence to show.

Any F1 visa applicant who have completed the stated task is the bonafide F1 visa applicant that will be taken serious.

* Cancel your pending request if you are not too certain of the above and reapply.

Good afternoon sir, I am also at the preapproval stage, I have paid SEVIS fees and MRV fee ....o could remember my supervisor also suggested I book appointment ahead before I get my admission offer and i-20 but I was told booking appointment date is not possible without SEVIS number....so most of us just got our i-20

Sir ,what about those that follow this steps but still on preapproval stage...I even paid sevis fees before the MRV, i uploaded sign copy of my 1-20 but under have you made specific travel plans I chose NO and i specific the date under intended date of arrival..any suggestions for people like me...my resumption date is 13th January
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by Chemist4life: 2:47pm On Nov 24, 2024
KingsCollege80s:
Hello.

1. In that case , use your signed I 20, SEVIS payment receipt, ds 160 slip and MRV to send a mail to the embassy under system error (direct email not support ticket).

2. Navigate back to few pages here you will see the Lagos and Abuja embassies emails. You should copy nigeria@usvisaappt.com in the mail.
Ok sir,will do that tomorrow or can I do that now
