₦airaland Forum

lexychuks:
Please is it compulsory to upload photo after filling the DS 160 form? Can't one bring a passport on the interview date?

Ajibade105:
What you would have done is to ask on nairaland before telling your wife to come back to Nigeria to renew her visa. I understand you wanted to see your baby but your eagerness landed you the wrong decision ever (no vex). I hope your wife doesn't have access to this forum because after reading the replies she will be mad at you for the period she's in Nigeria with you.

I am sorry to say this, you gave your wife the wrong advice ever by telling her to go to Nigeria to renew her visa. She should have just gone to Mexico or Canada to renew her visa if needed.

She should know better since she is in the US. What happened to the international student office in her school?. They would have just helped her extend her stay by giving her new I-20 and there would not have been an issue. With this, it solves the problem except if she wanna leave the US, that is when she needs to renew her visa.

International student advisor is in the best position to advise your spouse and not you, Mr. Husband. You just mess the whole situation up. I will advise she contact the international student office, they should be able to advise her better. I hope she gets this resolved asap.

Wretch32:
Any funding or scholarship?

Nerdychukz:
Congratulations bro

Kay100:
yes it's compulsory and you need 2 hard copies of the same passport you uploaded in your ds160 for your interview.

sharwama:
Are you serious
That means I have to return the visa they gave me ooo coz when I was at the consulate, they didn't ask me for passport photograph kini.
As a law abiding citizen who has great respect for laid down rules and protocols, I should do this.
Please what's the closest available date?

Kay100:

Davidkking:
July 18 ......they would gladly tear of the page they stamped the visa

sharwama:
I bind and cast, I send this thought to the bottomless pit, I shield my approval with the blood of the Lamb.
When God says yes, who can say no?
When He opens a door, who dares to shut!
He has prepared a table before me, how can I refuse?
Glory glory glory

Ajibade105:
No one ever said coming back to Nigeria after one is done with schooling in the US as a mistake. This is a choice. I just said coming back to Nigeria to renew her was a mistake when she can go to Mexico or Canada to renew her visa if she needs to. Stop thinking through your anus oga. Abeg shift ojawe!

naijatisumi:
Seriously, I suggested it because a friend of mine wife also went through same process and came into the country and went back without issue though then they submitted there documents through Drop-Box and her Visa was renew. Infact it was a seamless process until the drop-box issue was stopped. However my wife has already travel down to Nigeria

Also, a new i20 has been issued to her and she has all detailed of school fees receipt paid with a letter from there school on her visa renewal

fairheart:
A responsible and sensible person would never talk to another human being like this.
