Please I need help, I made a mistake on my DS-160 form. I didn't include my middle name on my international passport But I include it when I booked my visa appointment.

Can I still go to my visa appointment with this mistake? And how can I fix it? My interview date is Dec 4 please help

1. You can screenshot it to the general public , so that public opinion will tell the illiterate 😀

2. If you have raised 100 tickets , it's your business. You are supposed to wait . USA embassy is dealing with more than 25 million VISA applicants , out of approximately 250 million population. Common, go and have patience. USA embassy and AVITS are doing great jobs under population pressure.

🙏

Try and look at previous posts to check people that had the same issue. Though, alot of people
filled Abuja on the Ds 160 and late chose Lagos and there was no issue but try and confirm.

Hi,
Has anyone successfully received their visa after a 221g? Visa was approved at embassy but passport was returned after a few days and no additional documents requested. It’s getting to 3 months now. I really don’t know what has happened. What kind of checks are being done during this period. School course is not under technology watch list. Does anyone have a similar experience , please DM.

chimax1:
I have sent several emails to them but no response. It’s been months now. Does it mean I should just forget it or reapply?

Blackfinegirl:
Are you sending with the right format?

I need assistance with an issue I have been experiencing while trying to book my visa appointment. After making an online payment through First Bank, I encountered the following issues:

When I input my bank deposit details, the system displays the message: "Given payment receipt does not exist."
When I use my Amentum reference number, it redirects me to the preapproval request section. However, after entering all required details, I get the error message: "Query did not return a unique result: 2. Nested exception is 'javax.persistence.NonUniqueResultException: query did not return a unique result: 2.'"
I have been facing these issues for two weeks now and urgently need to book/schedule an appointment for my visa interview. Could you please advise on how to resolve this?

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Good morning everyone
Before my pre-approval request must be approved is it that I have to pay my SEVIS fee first before it can be approved because my pre-approval stage is still processing for almost a month

please can you advise on my situation? i paid in july with the old platform and they are yet to confirm receipt

Lovequee:
Good morning everyone

odukames:
Is it Lagos?

Blackfinegirl:
Are you sending with the right format?

EMAIL US at Abujavisaadmin@state.gov and cc: consularabuja@state.gov with the following information

USE THIS SUBJECT LINE: V22 - FULL NAME - ADMIN PROCESSING
Full Name (as listed in passport)
Date of Interview
Passport Number
Visa Type

RealTrump:
Same happened to me. Interview July 2nd, received email for passport august 23, got it back two weeks later. Sending them an email bounces back on auto reply, so there is really nothing you can do for now.

This your 3 months wait is a lot tho. Mine was 7 weeks even tho it still felt like a lot anyways.


In my case, passport was never collected after interview. Also, no documents was asked.

Trump placed my previous graduate school in the technology alert list in his first tenure.

So in my case, I knew why, even tho they didn't tell me. So maybe this helped me calm down.

I understand if you don't even know why but it's still a better place to be than outright rejection.

Follow up with your status here:
https:// ceac. state. gov/ ceac/

(Remove the space)

chimax1:
The status on the portal says refused, not even admin processing 🥹. And passport was sent back, in the passport a 221g letter requested to schedule another interview with no additional documents requested, but that was before the whole migration to the new portal.

Now migration has not been completed ( have not received any email) , missed the fall sememster, and spring is around the corner again. 🥺

chimax1:
Thanks a lot. Should I also include any additional message to the email or just this format.

Lovequee:
Yes
