Please is it possible for any school to issue I 20 without requesting for proof of funds when someone is not on full funding?
No, the school will not send I-20 without proof of funds.

The proof of funds is what the school will use in filling out the funding details on your I-20.

Guys how can I pay visa fee from GTB online from computer or mobile since there’s a public holiday today?.

Are there other ways I can pay without going to the bank?
Just use GTB online. It doesn't matter that there is a public holiday. The platforms are functional. Automated 24/7.

Pls anyone on the Lagos date search whatsapp group chat.. Kindly share the link
Reach out to Ogundare or drop your number here. I don't know how to put the Whatsapp link here. I am using my laptop.

I got an appointment for Aug 15 through the group. I had seen Sep 21st on my own. But my school resumes August 30, so I waited. Luckily, later in the day, someone posted on the group chat that Aug 15 was open. I rushed to the site and booked. Such a relief!

Do all schools request for official transcript for MSc admission before admission is given? Nigerian school is requesting for 25k to send the official transcript directly to just one school in U.S
Nigerian schools charge that much to send transcripts abroad. My school charged 30K. You have to factor in the cost of courier service provider (usually DHL) that the school will use in sending the transcript abroad.

Should I email LagosStudentVisas@state.gov or support-nigeria@ustraveldocs.com?
It seems the first is more appropriate from what I just read on the US embassy website.

Hello TEMITOPE and other gurus.

Please, it has been a over a week that I submitted the interview date application on the CGI portal, and got the response that I would receive an email once my application is approved.

I am yet to receive the email. Should I reach out to them or still wait. BleBLe said she applied on Thursday and received the approval email on Friday. This gives me cause for concern. Please, I would appreciate your advice accordingly.
Thanks.

Good afternoon,
Please can someone help with how I can pay SEVIS fee in lagos through Western Union?
I have gone to different banks today but they said the western union is not operating for now.
I don't think it can be done through WU in Lagos or Nigeria for that matter. Most people get someone in the US to pay for them. I did mine that way too.
However, it seems there is an online platform that some people us e for that purpose. I can't remember the one though, maybe someone else can help with it.

Good day, everyone.

Trust y'all keeping safe.

Please I have one question and a request.

1. Since balances in someone's account can fluctuate over time, how long does an amount which covers sponsorship have to stay in the sponsor's account before being presented for I-20?
Please note that the sponsor is printing out a bank statement covering approximately 6 months. Dec 2022-May 2023.

2. I'd like to be added to the Whatsapp visa appointment date group. 09099275791. Thank you
Christianity EtcRe: Abortion: Same As Murder? by realdemi(f): 12:36pm On Feb 23, 2010
Three weeks from the first day of your last menstrual period the fertilised egg moves slowly along the fallopian tube towards the womb. The egg begins as one single cell. This cell divides again and again. By the time the egg reaches the womb it has become a mass of over 100 cells, called an embryo, ant is still growing. Once in the womb, the embryo burrows into the womb lining. This is called implantation.

The embryo now settles into the womb lining. The outer cells reach out like roots to link with the mothers blood supply. The inner cells form into two and then later into three layers. Each of these layers will grow to be different parts of the baby's body. One layer becomes the brain and nervous system, the skin, eyes and ears. Another layer becomes the lungs, stomach and gut. The third layer becomes the heart, blood, muscles and bones.

[b]The fifth week is the time of the first missed period when most women are only just beginning to think they may be pregnant. Yet already the baby's nervous system is starting to develop. [/b]A groove forms in the top layer of cells. The cells fold up and round to make a hollow tube called the neural tube. This will become the baby's brain and spinal cord, so the tube has a 'head end' and a 'tail end'. Defects in this tube are the cause of spina bifida.

@poster
Nigeria - Oil = Crisis free Niger Delta

Nigeria - Oil = A thriving agrarian nation. Buoyant groundnut pyramids, Cocoa plantations, Palm oil plantations and others.

Nigeria - Oil = Food crisis insured!

Oil, in fact seems to be the bane of the Nigerian nation. Every one, starting from our dear corrupt leaders to greedy multinationals that explore and exploit the oil wells are all drooling over Nigeria because of, oil.
Like someone said, necessity is the mother of invention. Our lives would have been much better without oil and we would have found other stuff to rely on.

It is parochial and narrow-minded to say that Nigeria would be doomed without oil. How many pple in Nigeria are are truly truly benefiting from oil and the present windfall?

Your 'piece' needs a little bit of processing. It's still in a raw state. U've got the flow, though and i would term it lyrics for Rap (song) not a poem. SO if you could get it improved and get someone that raps well, u could have something there.

@Title
I prefer 'STILL HERE' because it is obvious the person speaking in the poem though gone is still very much around/alive (spirit) and promises to be till the appropriate time. He still lives on.

@nonso3k
The poem carries warmth and feeling though it could still be better.Permit me to make some alterations on the poem.


STILL HERE

Cry not brother
At my moment of departure
For I am not done
But only gone
If only you'd listen
You'd hear me calling
And when I'm singing
I pray you would stop mourning
Cause am still very much around
For the love by which we are bound
I'll wait upon thee till the right time.

This is not the best I could make of it but i didn't want to do much alteration.
Christianity EtcRe: Can You Suspend Tithing To Pay Off Your Debts? by realdemi(f): 2:08pm On Jun 17, 2008
Tithing is [b]NoT [/b]optional. And it is the first tenth of your increase. meaning remove God's portion before others. You actually acknowledge that God 'i had no strength or wisdom of my own except that which u have given me in order to make this money. This is your part of the deal'. [b]The tenth is the Lord's and u bring a curse on yourself when u withhold it . I agree that it's hard when u are in debt to pay your tithe but i assure u it's for the best. DOn't think tithe can be swapped for offering!! NO, sir.

KunleOshob:
In the frist instance tithing is not required of you by God as a christian. This topic as been exhaustively discussed in a similar thread i suggest you read it. It is titled "the truth your pastor would not tell you about tithes" Check it out via the link below


https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-113108.0.html
How does Heb. 7:10-15 negate tithing in N.T? Men just choose to believe as long as it suits their self-style. Pity! their belly being their gods.

@abasifo (OP)
Since you knew the answer to the question, why bother asking us? huh You just want to generate controversies.

ow11:
I thought we were told tithing keep problems like this far from us. why should a 'tihter' be in debt? If he is in debt then it is obvious the tithing isnt working and should go ahead and pay off his debt by whatever means he deems fit.

If debt collectors come knocking, they won't accept the counter foil of his tithe booklet!
My dear, God will not come down to audit your books for you or watch your budget. If u tithe and God keeps blessing you but you are a spend-thrift and a compulsive impulse buyer, is God to blame when your debts have accumulated at the end of the day?
The nonsense that we drag God in to at times is so nauseating!
