Please I am in a fix. After filling the ds- 160 form
I want to schedule a visa but it is showing me locations in India
I used the link that was sent in the pdf for visa procedures here but it looks like that is the one for India
How do I rectify it
I tried updating the profile but it still hasn’t changed. It is still showing India
Please I am still waiting for a response

Please I am having issues uploading a photo. It is saying it doesn’t not meet requirements. What can I do. I tried taking it at home and editing myself but it still did not accept it. I also went to a photographer. No luck there too. It is saying image not accepted due to compression artifacts or image is overly compressed.

Hi everyone
In a situation where my sister and her family stays in the same state as my school
Is it wrong to click the option NO when asked if I have any relative in US
Also here is the other problem
I also have some uncles and aunties in US but I feel that indicating that may lead to something else or make them think I am not going for school purposes as I said I am
Please what should I do?
TravelRe: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by SomtoObu(f): 11:47am On May 03, 2021
Please is it better to take a photograph at business centers and upload it as the visa photo

Please I need an answer urgently
SomtoObu:
Please I need your help
When asked if I have any other relative in US
What do I choose?
Because I have a sister that is married with kids
Plus I also have uncles and aunties over there

Also the 1-20 sent from my school
Can I print it and fill some parts because I can see a part that says name of guardians/parent
Or is it for the embassy straight.

Good day everyone
I just paid the MRV fees and I want to ask if I should go ahead to fill the DS-160 form and schedule an appointment or I should wait a bit. My reason for asking is this;
The bank statement I used for my I-20 is dated December and the 6-months will soon expire. So I intend to get another one from my dad’s company by Mid May(there are no sufficient funds now) So do I start the process or I wait a bit because my program starts August.
Please I need your help

Wow! Really? No like, side effect?
i do not think there will be any side effect. my school also sent an e-copy to me stating that it will be accepted at the embassy due to the present Covid situation so you can go ahead to ask for one now because it also fastens your process too.
