Please I need your advice guys.

My husband started his Phd in the US last year and I tried to join him over there through F2 visa in November but was not approved at the embassy.

Can I switch to F1 and apply to schools?
How will the consular officer sense that changing from F2 to F1?

irumole1975:
That depends on how beautiful you are. Most people were given at first attempt depending on how good looking. If you take care of your looks before ur next appointment, then it’s a given

Please my passport expires in 2027. I want to attend interview for my F1 visa. Hope it won't count against me.

Qisqis08:
It has been approved, thank God

I want to assume your passport will expire in 2025; if so, you should get a new passport.

Wealth1990:

For those that paid for WES, please what card did you use so that I will know which card to fund.

DrollyForce:
Hello Everyone..

I paid the MRV on the ATVIS site via First bank EFT and confirmed the payment reference number. But I dont see any changes on the page. Still showing Pending appointment Request that leads to Bank Deposit Details.

For those that passed this stage, how many days do I have to wait here before I get concerned to send mail to the ATVIS Support?

Hello and good evening guys,

please I need some guidance on how to pay for the SEVIS fee.

I walked into a bank to pay via Western Union as indicated in my print-out but I was told Western Union payment no longer works in Nigeria.

How did you guys go about paying for your SEVIS fees? Responses would be appreciate

Thanks

rektrenuer:
You can use the Pay4Me App to pay for your SEVIS Fee.

You would pay them in naira, the $350 plus a service charge. The rate of conversion is usually displayed.

They would ask for your SEVIS payment coupon to be uploaded.

Also my School session starts September 2025 and I put Lagos as Visa Locatiion in both my DS-160 and also on AVITS.

Now time to book for interview and I see February 2026 as available appointment date.
s
I am guessing a lot students resuming September in Lagos are also experiencing the same thing.

What do I do about this?


Change your appointment location to Abuja, I think dates from there starts from august now, then choose august since your resuming September, take your Lagos ds160 along with you to your appointment, during the first lineup wen they ask to bring out your ds160 for scanning, explain to them yours is for Lagos and they will changes immediately for you there, it only takes few minutes. The next option you have is to wait for Lagos which is in 2026 and you will have to defer your admission

I hear visa dates will cme out later but is that not risky to end up worsening the February 2026 to later in 2026

Thank you all.
