Me: I work as a graduate assistant at the University of Calabar where I graduated from.
Looks at her screen for a while
VO: when did you graduate from your masters program
Me: 2019 with a CGPA of 3.63/4
VO: will you be carrying out any thesis?
Me: Yes, my thesis will investigate the impact of public policy making and implementation institutions on economic development in Nigeria.

My thesis will be supervised by Dr Johnny Gilleylen.

VO: I'll be approving your visa, gave me the white paper,
I didn't hear the rest, I almost left out of excitement, she laughed and called me back and said something about taking my i-20 with me to the port of entry and the UK and some European countries being banned from entering the US.

I was denied a visiting visa in 2014 but that didn't even come up.

Special thanks to Teemah and Omolola. I'm so grateful to them for patiently fine-tuning my transcript. Listen to advise and ask questions on this journey.

I'll be willing to help anyone in any little way I can

Agent Wahala

Nikky1759:
visitor's visa application now going to 7weeks�

WHy would people be paying 600,000 when the outcome of the visa is not certain Na wa oo for my Nigeria People oo

megastu:
I understand they want to investigate the massive heist of appointment dates that happened this year. Appointments were selling as high as N600,000 per slot.

I booked genuinely in January and got August 20th or so then 2 weeks before my appointment they cancelled it. Meanwhile, people were paying 100k today to get dates for next week. Nigeria problem plenty sha.

ok

samtol4:
You don't need to panic this was weeks ago; I heard things have changed now. A colleague went home last week ,he didn't pay any money , he was told to drop his passport for 7 days. However, the guy maneuver his ways to get his passport.

Malta is EUROpe but i dont think Turkey among schengen

afembaba:
someone who has been to turkey,Malta,s.a, uae severally isn't considered a frequent traveller,abi turkey nor be Europe?

wow ok

samtol4:
Take, for instance, you traveled to SA on 10 September and you planned to return to Nigeria on 14 September. Before you board flight on 14 you are expected to show evidence/ proof of payment 14 days in a hotel recommended and approved by Nigerian government , failure to show proof of payment no airline will allow you to board. I know someone who paid 460k last month. Perhaps the amount has changed now

Sent u a Mail Kindly Reply thanks Bro

feelgoodstuffs:
Enter with a tourist/business visa and apply for short term resident permit immediately before your visa expires.

Am talking of people that have already traveled and came back is Immigration here in Nigerai Still collecting 500k for quarantine

samtol4:
100% yes. You pay for your hotel 14days before boarding flight from SA to Nigeria

ok Cool i will be doing Evisa with my Schegen but i dont know if i can make the trip cause of busy time

feelgoodstuffs:
No. I left in June, and yes you can renew yearly.

wow what a long fight congratulation

bunmisoar:
I give thanks to God for the success of my Interview
My visa was approved on Tues, 7th Sept, 2021 for FALL SESSION. Yes, FALL SESSION.

I learnt a lot from this platform regarding my preparation and my conscience will not let me rest till I post my success story for others to learn from too. I thank everyone here, God bless you for the helpful tips, and by the Grace of The Almighty God, every other person here will testify too. Be relentless, pursue it like your life depends on it, above all, Gods Grace is supreme over all we do.

SO my school, Morgan State University resumed since the 23rd of Aug, with faith, I registered for classes (I didn't make payment though because the school gives so time before payment) and resumed classes online. I made my department aware of my delayed interview and pleaded with them to write an extension letter for me to take along to my interview. My department did, and sent me the letter.

Here's how my interview went: (a black male in his early 40s interviewed me)

FALL 2021
NO FUNDING

VO: Hello good morning
Me: (with a smile) Hello, good morning sir, how are you doing today (be as friendly as possible in your greeting, it will help in reducing the anxiety in you)

VO: Pass your documents
Me: (I gave him passport first, then passed my I-20, extension letter, and DS-160)

VO: (as he was collecting the documents) SO why are you going to the US?
Me: I am going there to study. I will be studying my Masters in Public Health at Morgan State University, which is located at Baltimore, Maryland.

VO: I can see from your I-20 that school has resumed
Me: Yes, we resumed two weeks ago, 23rd of Aug. However, i have an extension letter from the school which i have passed to you. I have also begun classes online and I have been actively involved in all class activities. I have also been in frequent communication with the course instructors and they are all aware of my travel delay, i can also show you our conversations (i already printed the email communication between me and my lecturers incase he sked, but he didn't )

VO: So why MSU?
Me: I had the option of 3 schools, New York University, North Carolina University, and Morgan State University. However, my decision to settle with MSU was based on their syllabus. I compared the syllabus of the 3 schools ad I discovered that for NYU and NCU, the ir syllabus is constructed in such a way that at the beginning of the program, the students go right into their areas of specialization, but for MSU, their approach is more holistic and comprehensive. At the beginning of the program, the students do all courses in the 5 core areas on public health, and at second semester, they specialize. I wanted something as comprehensive as that

VO: What will this course do for you?
Me: In the short run, on my return to Nigeria, I will be reabsorbed into my current place of work. I currently work as an assistant health administrator at XYZ hospital, and the management is aware of my plans. They have also agreed to grant me a 2 years study leave. However, in the long run, i have passionately followed the work of several NGOs her in Nigeria. They are doing a great work in the Health Sector her and I have always wanted to be a part of them. The likes of UN, WHO, APIN, E-Health Africa, and many others. I believe that on my return, the certificate and knowledge i would have acquired will give me a leverage and make me more marketable.

VO: I can see you did Geography, so why Public Health
Me: Yes, but my specialization was in Medical Geography

VO: So is Medical Geography same as Public Health?
Me: Yes, it is all about Public Health nd Epidemiology
(at this point, he typed, and I guess to confirm what Medical Geography is on google. He then looked at me and said okay good)
(P.S: if your first degree is not related to what you are going to study now, or the work you are currently doing, look for a way to link it all together. VERY IMPORTANT. I thank God I already prepared for this question)

VO: I can see its a relative that is sponsoring you
Me: Yes, my Uncle

VO: Who is he and what does he do?
Me: He's an established engineer her in Lagos and has his own construction company with over 100 staffs. He is also a Federal Senator (My uncle is a politician, so i made sure i included that)

VO: What is the name of the company? Spell it
ME: A B C D E ( then he kept typing. This man googled the company in my presence then asked me questions)

VO: (looking at the system) where is this company?
Me: it is at XYZ here in Lagos

VO: Good. Anything to show that you and this man are related?
Me: Yes, I have a family photo here with me (though he didn't ask for it)
(Guys, please go prepared!!!)

VO: Why will he be paying this much for your fees?
Me: He has been sponsoring my education since my secondary school and he's just like a father to me.

VO: (began to type oooooooooooooooooo, then he brought out white paper)
VO: I will not be giving your visa now because the extension given by your school is not on your I-20 so...

Me: (i no allow am land o) But i told you i have given you and extension letter from the school and I also registered and resumed classes online and ...

VO: (Him sef no allow me land) Calm down sir, I didn't say I am not approving your visa, see your white paper, I have approved it. However just do one thing. Email your school today, tell them to indicate the extension given to you on your I-20. I will also give you back your passport and this white paper. Once the school has updated it, take the updated I-20 and your passport to our DHL office at XYZ You don't have to come for another interview. Your visa has been approved!!!

Me: (with all manner of Joy and smile): Thank you sir!!!

(So if your department is giving you an extension letter for resumption, contact the International Affairs department of your school, send them the letter your department gave you, and tell them to reflect that extension in the remarks section of the I-20)

Shalom!!! Wish you all THE best!!!

She use to destroy many thing inside the compound that why it chained when bringing out of her cage

BoltLigarus:
She is really beautiful. So lovely to see her grow. Although I would definitely unchain her. In fact, it is nice to read that there are so many beautiful postings about beloved pets here. I believe that having a dog at home always makes you a better person. I ordered custom pet portraits of my two Shar-pei dogs for my office, and their beautiful looks will be warming my heart during the stressful day when I look at them.
