Stop depending on them say them say; I live in the US and I'm telling you whats happening. You might successfully put in you application but adjudication is completely paused indefinitely for those countries (Majorly African countries); This is the reality on ground
Go and sit down! You come on line to assume that you are the only one living in the US ! Look at this one! This is my 35 years in the US which day you come here?. Take my number I don't care sharing it online 832 946 2332. I will teach you what you don't know....
What you said initially is that they are not accepting filing so stop changing the narrative. A relative of mine just got his work permit last month.

False narratives.
Baba forget that thing!
All those things you see online are not the reality here in the US. Although you might still successfully submit application but the case won't be adjudicated until the pause/ban is lifted (and this is indefinite) Millions of applicants are stranded with no headway but if you go online; they paint it as though its 'scrutinization' process but its a lie. There is an underground plot to starve immigrants by depriving them immigration benefits, until they get so frustrated and self-deport. You can go to reddit.com and see the reality for yourself

Someone on ground is giving you facts, you are posting AI, go marry and tell Chatgpt to go get the papers for you na.

Won't you present your green passport when doing the filing for your papers? Nobody rejects whatever you file, they just collect it and keep. EVERY immigration benefits is on PAUSE.


Thank you for your attention to this matter

U either hook up an akata, pay well and do a court marriage or use the money renew your visa by proceeding to PhD.
Even the akata route is also suspended. We hope it gets amended by July 1st when the second half of the presidential proclamation will take effect

Go and read what I wrote again, I said the ban restricts anybody from the ban/paused countries from receiving immigration benefits until it’s lifted, and that’s the situation. Being able to summit your application is not an immigration benefit.

And I said people are still submitting and getting their work permits...a relative of mine just got his own. Is work permit not immigration benefit? What you can not be sure of is your green card and citizenship.

You got it all wrong; I said the person won’t be able to receive any immigration benefits until the ban is lifted because the cases won’t be adjudicated. Go read it again. Also, being able to submit an applicant ion is not an immigration benefit.

If it's STEM course, look toward Canada and Australia.
Even Canada is harder. It's way easier to land a job in the US than in Canada

Correct question.

I actually got confused when I saw a student loan.

Loan to a foreign student to study in your country! That student must definitely be a genius.

Someone should explain this please? I don't believe it but with Nigerian, anything is possible.

Many ways Nigerian uses to get to the market even though it's only 2 legitimate ways to the market ...but Nigerian would device several ways to beat the system.



motymop:
What loans?

You mean student loans

But can a non resident or non citizen have access to loans in the US?

$79,000 is above N100 million where 1 US dollar equal to N1500.

If One doesn't want to invest such huge sum of money in a business especially where he or she doesn't have adequate know-how and or to avoid falling into dubious and unscrupulous business partners; he or she can invest such money in mutual funds. He/she can invest parts in money money mutual fund and dollar mutual funds while other parts in equity mutual funds. These funds have experts in form of investment bankers who use their expertise in making profit above inflationary rate.

Currently money market mutual funds pay interest at overage 18% per annum compounding while equity funds are at 80% per annum

If I have such money or even 10th part of the money I would do and invest at what financial experts called PERPETUITY

I will use interest gains from perpetuity fund to live my life while principal will remain intact while growing progressively.



AbuAeesha:
That is millions of naira...
Even with the current inflation and situation here in Nigeria,if that money was wisely invested in a business, you would be a comfortable business owner right in your own country...
But that inferiority complex and yearning for a perfect life (that doesn't exist anywhere) will not allow some Nigerian to be contented!!

Do you really think they gathered 79k dollars in Nigeria? If they did, they wouldn't have left just as you yourself have concluded that will be illogical. The 79k is money they got through student loans over *There*. Not something they happened upon in Nigeria.

In fact, the loan isn't just granted to them in a lump sum. If they did, may wouldn't spend it on schooling rather, they'd establish a business. But because it's strictly accessible and disbursed through schooling and probably the only viable path to maintain a residency there, they go through schooling route with a loan.

So it's definitely not how you pictured it.

It seems you are not reading some of my response. Twice or thrice I told you that a relative of mine just got his work permit? Or is work permit not an immigration benefit? What is totally on pause is green card and citizenship. This is a repeat of my earlier comment.

You can still put in your paperwork and get your work permit which is an immigration benefit. What is completely on pause is green card and citizenship.

Lmao 😂😅 do you know the ground that I am ? You can go to DHS website and do your research. I do need to argue with people like you that is probably in one corner in Nigeria talking about where you probably do know.
Just rest sir. Please did you see anywhere on the DHS website where they said they are not accepting your requests and filings? We are telling you they will collect your application and not do anything about it.

Can you tell me of anyone you have heard about that filed for immigration benefit after Dec. last year that has been processed. I can tell you AUTHORITATIVELY, none.


Thank you for your attention to this matter

Gow can they spend so much to be in another mans country...what sort of stupidity is that? Is Nigeria that bad that we are surviving here !

That money can set up good business in Nigeria ...we have our business in Nigeria and we are still surviving

I don't pity such clowns

irumole1975:
What are Nigerians in this situation doing right now? Nigerians have been banned from seeking work permit in America. From working. From seeking permanent residency. The only option given by the international student office is to leave for a while.

How do u pay back these loans?

What are yall doing?

I like the one of pausing citizenship for the military guys if true. Many of them were everywhere on social media last year making videos, speaking bad about nigeria because they promise them citizenship. One was even saying he was ready to invade nigeria with us army, lets see how that goes now
