mr swagger: Hello house, I greet u all. I just got accepted to my school in US for the fall 2013 resumption.

I will be receiving my I-20 soon.

My sponsor wants to contact someone he knows in the US to help me pay my Sevis fee.

Please I will like to know what are the steps for him to pay the Sevis fee for me in US and who and where does he pay to?

What are the necessary requirements?

Are we paying the Sevis fee to the school or to the Embassy?

Please help me on this because I have never done this before and I don't want to make any silly mistakes.

I have researched the previous threads on nairaland but everyone is talking about paying sevis in Ecobank in Cotonou, no one is talking about the procedures to paying it in the US.

If possible post the link of the website so I could get the full details on paying the Sevis fee in US

Thanks guys. Waiting for your anticipated response.

This is their website: www.fmjfee.com you will find all d details of what you need to send to the person paying for you like ur sevis no, school code etc

Aleast you know your resumption date, so you can put any date before your school orientation date.

imperiouxx: you dey mind em

@Imperiouxx baba, a friend of mind who is also a biochemist like you finished his masters last year and will love to go for his PHD in U.S. I want to make inquiries about your school, percentage of acceptance and also schools that offer GA for Phd students. Tanx

Mamacita007: I think the school is the problem. This same problem happened in part 3 when vo even told him that im sorry its like youre very smart but you chose a bad school and its that same everest.

Yes you are so correct! i really wish people can be patience enough to read through the thread.

olarwarlay: Nothing has changed, just saying he should start preparing better answers for his next interview. I guess he'll have to work on his points.
Dunno if i have answered your question Sir 'coz i am a learner myself!

i can't stop laughing, i think he just need to get another admission in a more standard school and i also think he got denied on the basis of him saying he applied to just 1 school in America and 2 in uk and 1 in 9ja. The Vo might tink he has other options, thinking is not really serious about studying in US

Anthonymighty: Touched Down JFK since Monday afternoon...Mehn New York is freaking COLD. Damn! I came out of the airport after immigration and homeland security finished their thing. I was wearing just one Shirt and a Jean, as the breeze blow me, it didnt take up to 5 mins my hands were folding...mehn i quickly opened my bag, carry my Thickest Sweater + Jacket wear.

Happy buffdae kpoli wishin u longlife lik metuseller nd prosperity. Sori is coming late, at all at all na in bad pass, cheers bro

Yvete: Proud of ya!
Anyways, NCTC is a good start. Though its a 100% commuter campus, small town, nothing going on, but its cheaper for starters compared to HCCS. After a semester there, you should be able to decide to come out to Houston or anywhere else in the US.
Hey, if you need help with finding accomodation or mobility around town, I can introduce you to a couple of Nigerians to help out. Holla when you get here!

Thanks godmother . I know i can always count on you, i will surely do that, thanks once again.

Yvete: @Smith: Have a seat!

@Seunbunmi: Ready yet?

Yes I'm fully ready . I've decided to transfer to NCTC. My fall i-20 is ready from Murray, normally they are suppose to send it to me through UPS but they said they have new policy that i have to pay for fedex for the shipping which fedex is charging me 120dollars . I will pay that today and start NCTC application.

ibrahim star: Ibrahim star;

What I need now is someone dat will put me thru all

You still have few days b4 ur interview, I will advice you to start reading this forum from page 75 I bet you by d time you are through, you will be fully ready for your interview. Wishin u all d best

Yvete: Pretty good. Got one take home exam left - due midnight. Learned never to take an online class again (zero motivation plus boredom with slow monotonous professor videos) Hope you did alright.

Hello godmother, wishing u success on ur exams

slimmy05: you can send it Via Nipost, they are reliable now, or better still if you have enough cash, you can do that via UPS or fedex. But you can try the post office inside the international airport, lagos.

Thanks, but I'm not sending any document, am searching for a carrier service tats not too expensive for d shipping of my i20, normaly d skool do send it thruogh UPS but dey now said dey hav a new policy tat am to pay for d shippin now with fedex n fedex is charging me almost 120dollars...pls guru can I get a cheaper carrier service?

Hello house, which carrier service can one use to ship in i20?

Anthonymighty: soonest...lol...what about you

Fall semester bro

[quote author
=Anthonymighty]Well I believe something can be done concerning the 8 yrs gap. I had similar issues during my visa seeking time too. I finished 2003 and I got my visa last year december. All you need do is to think of something tangeable and not just some computer school crap because they have heard it severally. In my own case I told the VO after I finished in 2003, I went a computer diploma course and worked with it before I went for my OND + IT which lasted for 3 years instead of 2 due to our bad educational system affected by strike and the likes. (U must show proves at this stage) and other certificates + voluntary work you can think off. Tell her to Just be smart and wise. And eliminate fear. Once you and the interviewer establish a good start and chat, he might end up not asking you for proves, once you tell him things to cover the gap. That's how I scaled thru. Cheers.

I had similar situation too lst year n I was given my visa too against all odd. Her work experience might also help, tellin d vo tat gettin a degree now will help her take up managerial position in d organisation where she works and d God factor can help her scale thRough....Anthonymighty summer is around d corner, wen u dey enter ilu nla?[/quote]

bones007: House has anyone try using GTB master card to pay the SEVIS fees?

Yvete: Yea, I was told what was written up until the village comment. Lolz. My response to you this morning is an indirect jab not at you.



I'll send you the message during lunch break. A lil busy now.

Imperiouxx told me that he'll ask Justwise to ban me if I don't . He said any username I use will be banned. How sad!

I believe Imperiouxx is just tryin to bring order to the thread, not to make it a war front...jst know you are who u are n no one can take that from you

Am glad we have finally moved on from d weekend volcanic eruption , tanx 2 oga imperiouxx d peace maker ....yvete welcum back hope u got my mail?

Yvete: Uncle SeunBunmi As a student, you qualify to attend the try-outs for any sports. Age is not a factor. Be mindful that we cannot eat our cake and have it. Most CC no get sports team HCCS & DCCS have decent soccer and basketball teams. While you're trying to be the next Micheal Jordan for tuition purposes, look into other sports like swimming lolz. By the way, how tall are you??

Some opportunities that we may have missed are better left to posterity (and perhaps beyond) to grasp. Seems like you're coming for summer school. I'll send you an email later today. **Sleepy-eyed* need some Zzzzz'z

am like 6:4 tall ..okay ma, will be expectin ur mail
