thanks for the update

Barbiturate:
Bypassing something is jumping it, i.e not doing it. Though the guy didn't approach it well. For me I tried using apps but it still rejected it, so I went to Yaba tech and met a photographer there. He took a new shot and gave me the exact size and background needed. I uploaded it and it was accepted.

My advice for guys: Apply for 64 pages passport cos they are readily available. You should get it within a month. 32 pages isn't available anymore and they've not printed. Some people have captured since 3 months ago and still waiting.

please shift and let people who have gone through the process answer my question for God sake.
must you comment on every post?

haba

iamoyindamola:
Then you have issues with the use of English
Because bypass is skip

lol if you dont understand the question pls skip.

when I mean bypass. i mean people who have done it successfully and went to the next page,
so please always understand questions before answering, as you can see I even put if there is any online tools to edit passport photograph before uploading

iamoyindamola:
Which one is bypass again, can't we do things the right way in this country?

Please how do you Guys bypass the Passport Upload Side, is there any online tools to use to reside the passport before uploading please anyone done this should help
thanks

Professordi:
Good afternoon house. Please I need to confirm for my friend is in a very confused state. He is applied for french visa for his family (a wife and 3 children). Yesterday he got an email that they need to do documents verification for his all date of birth and marriage certificate and that each one cost is 250k. Please is this normal? Here is the screenshot of the content sent from email address: Visa.abuja-amba@diplomatie.houv.fr
Note: the email starts with capital V.

wow happy for you congratulation

Queenyetun:
Good evening all. I reapplied for Schengen visa through France after a rejection from them.. as advised by the majority.
The visa was issued 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 Rejection in January, they approved in March with same documents
Thanks all

please as anyone recently received his/her application back from the embassy, Italy embassy is taken longer time

wow

HRprof:
Prices has increased in all visa applications even in VFS I book and paid for appointments at VFS portal but when I get there i was charge extra to reflect the change in price after I paid for appointments.
Visa fee increased as well as courier service
See the fee analysis given to me at VFS
This is for Schengen visa ooo. Last time I got visa at VFS I paid less than 65k visa fee last year
The courier service you pay is for both sending your application and receiving from embassy by TLS and sending your passport to you from TLS

Obahp99:
Hey guys, pls, I need directions to the Alausa Passport Office from Abule Egba. My appointment is on Monday. Please 🙏

Got approved today!!!

My only travel history are two trips to Ghana 😭😭😭😭😭

This is my first visa application to the US

Was so discouraged when I saw loads of rejections but thankfully, mine was accepted.

Guys, all you need is just confidence, a defined purpose for your travel and a definite reason why you will come back and not remain in the US...

I even told them I've a relative in the US

They didn't ask me to bring any document at all..

Hopefully, I'd be able to give details of how the interview went but for now, make I go pop pepsi (I don't take alcohol)

Thank you all for the advice . They really helped me

Thank you all

congratulation ur 3rd one will be 6 months I can guaranty that

Nnajohnson:
APPRECIATION TIME

I want to say a big Thank you to all. I have been secretly following this thread for the past 8 months. I have read this thread like textbook. It started after we were luckily granted B1-B2 visa last year March for vacation. We started seeking how to utilize it and birth our 4th child in the US. We decided to first use the visa for the sole purpose it was granted which was to go for a family vacation in Disneyland Florida. DW was already 3 months preggy when went for the vacation between August 15th and September 2nd. We returned and started planning for her to go back in November for the birthing.
We got a doctor in New Jersey and She left alone in her 34 weeks of preggy and arrived Newark POE late November. Her POE experience wasn't funny. She was asked her purpose of visit, which she truthfully stated but the officer wasn't cool with that. She was asked to show evidence of funds and her EDD date. She had Usd10k in cash and 10k in VISA credit card. She also showed the actual date of her EDD. The officer still not satisfied approached her supervisor and they decided to give her limited stay of 42 days(out of wHich she had only 10 days after her EDD).
We felt really bad because there was no way we could get baby's traveling documents within 10 days. We started considering getting an immigration lawyer to seek for extension or worst case, she overstays.
Unfortunately, the doctor wasn't eager to give her medical report to attach to the extension application. The doctor said he can only do that if after delivery and she wasn't medically fit to travel within that period. At this point, we gave up the hope of extension and started considering inducing the preggy at 38 weeks which the dr rejected but said that he can only monitor her and see if he can induce in 39 weeks.
At this point, it's dawn on us that she gonna overstay. We entered into prayer for Gods will only.
To the glory of God, she delivered our son safely without inducement in her 39 weeks giving us only 16 days to get the LO birth certificate, Passport, and ETC.
The hospital helped her apply for the BC and SSN. Two days after delivery, she called the state vital record department to expedite the BC, surprisingly she was asked to come pick it up the following day. The news gave us some glimpse of hope. Immediately, i went online and got 2-3 weeks expedited passport appointment date in 9 days time and Abuja consulate appointment to notaries my consent in 2 days time since i didn't travel with her.
I also called lufthansa to rebook her return flight to the date she was given to exit and to add the LO to her ticket since the itenary is needed to expedite ETC and Passport appointment.
The next day, she picked up the BC, and applied for the LO ETC mailed to the new york consulate. The ETC was approved and we got it 3 days after it was mailed. She got the LO Passport on the same appointment day.

WOW, In 12 days after delivery we have all the LO travel documents ready to leave before her admitted period elapses.

I can't thank you guys enough for the enormous information and direction i got in this forum.

God bless you all.

NB:
DW : darling wife.
POE : point of entry
EDD: estimated delivery date
LO: little one
ETC: emergency travel certificate
SSN: social security number
BC: birth certificate

ok cool

Ashirioluwa:
No, you don’t ask for it. If your last visa was for a year and you apply for a new one within two years after the expiration of the one-year visa, you will be granted a three-year visa.

congratulation did she ask for 3 years while applying for it

Ashirioluwa:
Her application was approved, and a 3-year visa was granted.
