Hello house, I've been a silent reader for about a month. I got my F1 Visa approved on the 6th of February. The interview was slightly uneventful. I was scheduled to interview at 9am but I arrived about an hour earlier. I got called in around 10:30am. I was nervous so I packed every document that came to mind. The VO that attended to me denied 2 people in front of me (one of the them with funding for an MBA so I was really worried). When it got to my turn, I was reluctant to move forward till he called me � VO: Please pass me your documents Me: Handed them over VO: So you're going to Baton Rouge Me: Yes, I got an offer bla bla bla (cuts me off and continues typing) VO: Congratulations. Where do you say you work again? Me: I work at company xyz. VO: (Confirms the information from my DS-160). I'll be be approving your visa, please go over to booth 22 to make your payment. Hands me the slip with instructions on retrieving my passport. I'm grateful to God. This interview was an emergency appointment however I had also scheduled a regular appointment for the 18th of December. I'll be cancelling it soon (tonight). I'm posting this so others on this forum without appointments can potentially book their appointments before January. |

Teau:Have you been able to book your renewal? I need to know what website to book my appointment. |

Youngstown:Hellos bro, I hope u are a guy....anyways, I have the same issue. I booked April and then requested for an emergency date. I was denied today, so I called them, the lady that picked said emergency appointment chances are only once, if u are denied u can’t reapply. And secondly the MRV can be used twice, so don’t bother about the warning. Then she said nothing can be done now, the only thing now is for me to keep checking for earliest available dates as some will be announced soon. So as e be now Na God hand person Dey. Except u want to pay another $160 and start ur reapplication. Na prayer I Dey like this. But I believe God will finish what He has started. Cheers |

Lete:Did you get an e-mail from the embassy to pick June 16th and apply for emergency appointment as confirmation? |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Lete: 12:11am On Nov 10, 2020 |
nonfav:Nope I didn’t. The only email I got is the one saying my emergency appointment request was denied even though no reasons were given. |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Ftos: 12:17am On Nov 10, 2020 |
Lete:Did you upload your I20 and sevis fee receipt? Also, were you within 60 days to the start of the program when you applied? |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Ftos: 12:19am On Nov 10, 2020 |
Lete:She said you CAN use one MRV receipt twice ![]() |

Good evening everyone, please I need a list of schools that are language testing waivers for a master's degree. Thanks and God bless. Once again, congratulations to everyone that was granted Visa today. |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Lete: 12:31am On Nov 10, 2020 |
Ftos:Yes my I-20 was uploaded and admission letter, but sevis receipt wasn’t uploaded. I don’t think that’s the issue anyways, what I suspect was wrong with my application for emergency appointment is that I noticed I just took and screenshot of my I-20 the way it was sent to me and uploaded it, I didn’t upload the printed screenshot I had signed. So today when giving a feedback on my dashboard I uploaded the one I signed on the column I am supposed to sign and sent to them. They said they will reply within one or two working days. Fingers crossed. By Gods Grace it will happen. |

Lete:Sevis receipt is a most important part of the emergency appointment request and you can be denied based on that ALONE |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by zeeLady: 2:54am On Nov 10, 2020 |
they are very likely to deny your application. Please quickly email/upload your sevis receipt NOW. if you read the instruction on their website, you wont be blowing your chances like this Lete: |

GboyegaD:No i have not. cant figure out which embassy is operating. |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by anikemoses(m): 5:56am On Nov 10, 2020 |
GboyegaD:you can book with this website, I think u need to call to know the operational hours of the Embassies bcoz of COVID..I will advise u go to the one in DC, they are more organized.Though I did my renewal at NY but it was a hell of experience.. https://portal.immigration.gov.ng/passport/epassport |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Lete: 6:34am On Nov 10, 2020 |
zeeLady:My account has been frozen until 72 hours. It’s getting frustrating. I will upload my sevis receipt once it’s unfrozen. But there are also people who uploaded everything and were still denied emergency appointments, what do u say to that?? Is there anything I can do to release my account now since it’s been frozen ![]() |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by GeoOla25(m): 6:50am On Nov 10, 2020 |
Lete:Calm down.. just take your time .. you will definitely secure an appointment, do you mean you cannot login on your portal or is it only the rescheduling icon is what you can’t access? Just be patient.. hopefully there will be available dates in December. |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Lete: 6:57am On Nov 10, 2020 |
GeoOla25:Where u can view your appointment date. But I will call them later just to try my luck. |

Hi guys. I picked the April date and requested emergency appointment. Uploaded my I-20 and Sevis fee receipt but wasn’t within the 60 days they stated. They denied me the emergency appointment and I’m wondering if it’s the time factor that’s the reason. For those who were denied too, what’s the way forward? Do I send an email and are they likely to respond? Or we just keep checking for available dates so we can reschedule? |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Agnestardom: 8:34am On Nov 10, 2020 |
naijaeclectic:Congratulations dear. Please what GTB receipts are they talking about. Is it the white paper given with your teller at the bank? |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Youngstown: 8:35am On Nov 10, 2020 |
Lete:Hey, thanks for the input and yeah am a guy! I was about mailing them this morning when I got this mail from them.

BGodsonMay:UALR - English Language and GMAT/GRE may be waived based on 1. language of taught 2. interview with program coordinator 3. Years of experience (GMAT n GRE) 4. motivation letter |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Zoeyp: 8:47am On Nov 10, 2020 |
Youngstown:I just got this same email now. Check guys, they are responding. |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Lete: 8:50am On Nov 10, 2020 |
Youngstown:Hmmmmm great. They responded to me but still not approved. I may need to pay another MRV fee I guess or just be hopeful that a date will come soon. Please what are the documents I uploaded while requesting an emergency appointment?? |
| Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Loloking: 9:11am On Nov 10, 2020 |
I just got confirmed again for Nov 13th. For those of us who they asked to pick June 19th and apply an emergency appointment to maintain the Nov 13th. Someone asked that I do this so this is me doing it. I sent a message yesterday afternoon and woke up this morning to confirm my Appointment |
