UPDATE: I shared my experience at the embassy on Tuesday on how my Visa was placed on administrative processing. And that my account went from 8M to 99k within 12days. Well... I just got a text that my passport is ready for collection and I checked online and saw ISSUED. Thank you to everyone that encourages me especially Stella91. I am grateful. Transcript loading.

@nosagiez congrats dear , i understood how you felt , it is well

@blessesmumi , have you booked your flight yet ? , I'm thinking if I should wait for the passport to arrive or book to avoid high flight cost .

nosagiez:
is a current account, a company account not a savings account, you don't expect money to be there dormant on a current account that receive 12M every month.

Please I need people that have been on administrative processing to tell me how long they stayed before the collected there Visa.

@nosagiez , samething happened to me , though mine was in Lagos, had my interview on Friday, i was placed on AP , but just checked this evening and it changed to issued . , so I can say it takes 3 -4 working days , just hang in there , there s nothing to worry about , they aren't checking the balance just the authenticity of the account state ment you submitted , mine was a company account too and the money left was definitely not what was there when I printed the statement, it just had go be a busy account I guess.

hello everyone , my status has changed from administrative processing to ISSUED , including that of my kids and hubby , i would want to thank everyone for your support and encouragement, wish you all the best .

@blessesmumi thanks a lot, this reply really calmed me , i will hope for the best . congrats , i tap into your blessing

blessedmumi:
Trust me u will be fine as long as the SOA is genuine...I was exactly in this position a week ago but my status changed to issued today (exactly one week after my visa interview). Transcript loading....

@philipinho congrats on your approval , i remember you

LagosismyHome:
Hard to say. .... it depends on when the checks are completed. I seen one here that was done in one week and there was someone here that it took months last fall . You just have to be patient and check the status everyday or as often as you can

@Lagosismyhome what are they checking please, are contacting the bank to check if the money stated on the statement is still intact or what , cos mine is my husband's business account and he some times withdraw from it as well as pay into it for business .the balance might not be that exact as was when the statement was taken. is that a problem ?

quote author=Embermom post=68207362]Hello All.
I'd like to thank everyone especially those who shared their transcripts . I learnt a lot from it. One of my main worries going thru the pages was that there were very few pple who have applied with child dependant. After going thru pages endlessly I saw malory84's post over 2 years ago. I learnt so much from this and it gave me a lot of confidence. Being a mother of 3 young children I was advised to get my F1 first then later apply for their F2. But I was afraid of stories that touch the heart where I would have been granted visa and the children won't be able to join me later. My hubby has a visiting visa and he will still be working here to ensure the family still has an income. So I decided to apply with the kids as I would prefer we were all given or all denied visa.
In the spirit of given back and to help keep families together especially mommies and children I will be sharing my transcript. I have been a silent reader
Visa was approved today along with 2 dependant children[/quote]

but I already booked our visa appointment together .he is the CEO of his company , isn't that enough ties ?


Don't go with your husband and kids together for your interview... No home ties!

Go first and get your visa. Then they can go later for their F2[/quote]

hello everyone , I'm really impressed by what is going on here , i really appreciate you guys for the effort you put in to ensure people get their dreams achieved.

I have a question, i got admission from penn state uni for 'LL.M with a scholarship of $40,000 , i was asked by the school to transfer my tuition and cost of living totalling $23, 700 to my pennstate student account before I can be granted i20 , due to the rate of Nigerians coming to the school and finding it difficult to even feed not to talk of paying tuition.
I did as I was told and was granted my i20 including that of my kids and husband , but my husband is my sponsor and will only accompany I and the kids to ensure we r settled but will come back after 2weeks for his business .
I have also gotten a daycare for my 2kids on campus

I also submitted my husband statement of account totalling $33000 to the school and plan on using same for visa.


what are my chances in getting my visa approved .Thanks
