Plz house I will like to ask if it is possible to change DS-160 form even after scheduling interview appointment...and if yes what is the implications with VO

JMG12:
Yes, you can update your DS-160 form even after scheduling your visa interview appointment.

Waposh:
Pls how long does this pre approval process request takes, it’s over two weeks now and still in pre approval…I just tire!

Treyknowles:
This is weird, mine took 24 hours, did you upload your i-20?

Mela14:
Hi guys
Please I am looking for an active F1 visa date search group for Lagos.
If anyone has a link (WhatsApp or wherever) please share with me 🙏🏼

Thank you.

temiidayo:
Please has any one experienced a "duplicate user found" error while creating a new visa schedule application.

And what can I do to get past this error to continue with my application?

Wealth1990:
I made visa payment by using the online transfer method to first bank and no mrv receipt was generated for me. I am stock at this point. I don't have the reference number to move forward. I have been going to first bank since on Friday. How do I resolve this issue?

porter147:
How please

Waposh:
You didn’t input your email address when transferring the money? The receipt was sent to my mail I put after transferring my payment last two weeks.
Again most times your your amentun reference no is mostly same with the references number on the MRV receipt

JMG12:
Steps
1. Fill out a new DS-160 form on the official website
2. Submit the new DS-160 form and note the new confirmation number.
3. Update your appointment profile
4. Log in to your visa scheduling portal (e.g., U.S. Travel Docs)
5. Edit your appointment details to include the new DS-160 confirmation number.
6. Print the new DS-160 confirmation page and bring it to your interview.

Good day guys, I hold a Bsc in Physics, looking to further in Elect Engineering or Nuclear Eng. for a Master's program, researched a ton of schools already, even reached out to their graduate coordinators and got replies on inquiries, but havent started/completed any application as I'm looking for schools that wouldnt require letter of recommendations. Reached out to former lecturers, mails, no reply for a request. Question here is, I'd appreciate an estimate on how much it would cost to go through on an application. GRE, have no idea on that and average application fee for international students is like $70-90. If possible, not to be forward, with all the VISA payments and SEVIS fees I read on here, like estimate estimate. Will appreciate a response on this, thanks.

How many weeks did it take you?

Lee310:
Hello house, please I have been finding it hard to put my application through... It looks a lil bit complex to me. I need someone to put me on how to apply or reputable orgs that assist in securing your admission.

Is it late to apply for fall 2025?

Treyknowles:
You can't update your profile on the avits portal.

Queensfield:
You can. Just contact the support team on avit. They do it themselves
