imperiouxx: Which state are you at?

Iowa State

teddyrain: Guys is this advice okay? Someone said I should contact my cc and let them know I would love to come to their school, but the visa I have bears another universities name. And ask them if its possible that they transfer my sevis from them to the cc. How do you guys see this?
Zeezahbe said I should go straight to the school, while the guy said its wrong.

Boss, your case is settled! just chill, get an updated spring admission packet from both schools, resume in US and go 2 the cc just like Zee said. I bet you wont have issues.

imperiouxx: If you're at Dallas, Denton, north TX, you will see a low temp of about 3 °C

If you're at Lubbock, west TX (boundary between TX and NM), you will see a low temperature of about 0 °C

Snows in those parts are very light, they melt away within few hours. Although Dallas experienced an increase in snow fall last year.

zeezahbee: email your school and ask them if you can the the shots in nigeria, if theyb say NO, htn you have to take it in usa, for example in texas, the meningitis shot is $130, but theres an exemption form you can fill if you dont wanna take the test. the meningitis test is for people below 22years, if you more than 22, its not require. note: am taking bout texas alone, i dont know about other states

decreammaster IF u don pass 25 chill, if u neva reach n u no get money 2 take shots chill too and pm b4 u travel. i go give u d shots free. House, my skool put me on 3weeks ebola tracking. lmao

bigfrancis21: @bold...God bless you my brother. The Indians and Chinese will always remain ahead because they stick together, work together and most importantly, share ideas and information with one another. On the other hand, Nigerians here love to form independent, and have that 'I need no one, I can do it on my own' attitude whereas what one really needs to succeed extremely well in this country is knowledge and information, and the right set of people.

lmao. U mean Nigerians dat cant even defend naija small? I love the Indians n d Chinese too

bdbodmas: A friend of mine was denied F1 student visa due to fake ghana stamp on his passport. Now he's planning to apply again for spring semester. Please what are his chances of getting the visa the next time he apply... Please advice, thank you.

Amerinancy: I hear. We are young, but as my honie told you, how we met you don't know. The secret behind our union you don't know. I'm no trouble maker, but I won't take rubbish from anyone who can't mind their business and grow up. Divorce or no divorce is still our business please for Jesus, Mohammed and any other person you respect sake, leave us alone!

That's how someone emailed me telling me the teddy he knows is a womaniser, player etc. I told him thank you, but teddy is the bad boy I love period!!

Teddy bu alobam!

I am yet to meet a very different IBO woman.

RexNdubest: @bigfrancis21, MsNas, Kpoli, Imperioxx, Walspring, Graviton2, gogG, Joenice, America, etc;

Do u guys know any NL family in Philadelphia or Upenn in particular. Ur help will be very useful to me. I'll be arriving Philly late no thanks to my sponsor (scholarship ). Thanks as I await ur responses

decreamaster: hey guys
am thinking of transfering immediately i arrive but am scared if the current sch wont get angry
their fee is kindda much.too much.

if u already have the i-20 of the other skool. roll on

meekpie: Hello house, greetings to everyone in here. I have found this house to be very informative in the fairly short period I have been observing as a guest. I have two questions that I hope the house can answer for me:

1.) I heard recently that it is now possible to make outbound western union payments from Nigeria, does this mean that the SEVIS FEE can now be paid from Nigeria? If so which banks are compliant so far and if not, what is the best possible method to pay the SEVIS FEE as of now (lol sorry I guess this is actually more than one question in one)

2.) What is the earliest possible time one can book a visa interview before resumption date? For example in my case resumption is in January 2015 and I-20 is at hand.

Really looking forward to your candid and informative answers. Thanks

Walspring Amefrica imperiouxx justwise

4 months to ur resumption. watz d name of ur skool?

The Good Lord that brought you to America will grant you more favour and Breakthrough. Keep Making the Moves, you will give the testimony. I am Sure of this.

Feexo: BigFrancis, Yes, I took the Greyhound and we spent around 17 hours to get to Chicago with stop-overs in: Columbus, Ohio; Cleveland, Ohio and Indiana. I later took the Amtrak train- 3 hours- to my school.

MsNas, thanks for the support sis! I am presently with a group of Nigeria guys in a Western Illinois as I am typing this. In fact, I was picked at the train station by 2 Naija girls. These are all wonderful people...
I sent an email to that prof 5 minutes ago and he replies immediately telling me to come and see him tomorrow by 1:30 pm. I will update you in due course.

DHL will be ur friend Sir. LOL.

stevecrun: Bro..I swear I go miss naija food oo.. I can't survive on burger and coke or pizza I'll get bored easily.

My Boss, u go prefer indomie 2 some yeye junks for here o.LMAO. I pray say i fan am from 9ja

Walspring: Oh okay... You must be Indomie die hard fans, although i dont take Indomie

lol...Na unu funny pass. I nor gree for here o. dem de shout heat, i de shout cold. De heat reach wetin i see 4 abj 4 naija? I teld em am cold Utunu

bigfrancis21: This summer's heat was unbearable in the south. People in Texas were really complaining of heat. Even me sef wey be naija born and bred with 35+ degree celsius temperature just dey form ajebo 'the sun is too hot' under 25 degrees celsius oo.

And When the King speaks...

imperiouxx: That must be one foot closer to grave.

At bold, yea it's possible:

1) If USCIS approved your application for EAD for employment based on financial hardship.

2) If you're on CPT or pre-OPT.

3) If you've already adjusted your status and your EAD is approved.

Our Naija Indomie but in Int'l markets. a bit expensive and e scarce die!

Walspring: Eyah.... sorry about that, am sure you will get indomie over there but it can never be our naija indomie sha

Edo people with western Union shaaa o. SMH

juntod: $10,000 out of Nigeria? That nearly choked me. I won't even argue what I know. You sent western union outta 9ja between 2004-2007? THAT AINT TRUE BABE.. The link below clearly indicates that this newly launched outbound transfer agreement with western union is first of its kind here in Nigeria. My dear, I have been working with WUMT since 2005 and there has never been outbound transfer since the launch of western union and money gram in Nigeria.

Tor, I actually will pick a dictionary to comprehend all you'v said.

Feexo: BigFrancis & MsNas, I beg you guys to put a stop to this needless arguments. A preponderance of the people here have learned from, and still stand to benefit from your wealth of knowledge. Having said that, let's all learn to imbibe a culture of debate, tolerance for divergent view and constructive criticism. Sometimes I wonder if we can't have an intellectual interlocution and concern ourselves with the substance of the other person's submission without resorting to darts-throwing. More importantly, I think the default mode of the human mind/psychology is predatorial and egotistic, it is up to us as an educated bunch to work on this. Once again, I admire and respect you guys a lot. Please let it go....

why not try zenith bank and access bank too? my zenith is d best so far

dimmy08: Gtb sud not dull me ooo...all my cash is in my gtb card...hop it work when I get to yankee.

Learnt.

MsNas: You are wrong on the premises of which CPT is awarded. If you don't know, let me say this. You can't defer your admission on the basis of a CPT (Curriculum Practical Training). You must be enrolled in school and classes to be on CPT. The CPT must be a part of your curriculum for you to be eligible and it you must work in a field related to your training.

According to OjaP, most people register for at least a credit CPT class before they graduate and if they are allowed to. He said he was on CPT when he got an Internship with an Oil Company before he graduated and because the company wanted him so bad they paid for his CPT tuition in school. One of my classmates is on CPT right now and I will also need to go for CPT before I can graduate. There is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY with which you can be on CPT and not be enrolled in school. I suggest you read the rules governing CPT, OPT and H1B.

Also bear in mind, that if you work full time on CPT for up to a year, you will not be eligible for OPT (Optional Practical Training). Those things we might tend to verlook might come back and bite us in the a,ss if we aren't careful.

look here www.ice.gov/exec/sevp/Module4.htm for rules pertaining to F-1 visa employment, CPT and OPT authorization.

follow the address that will be mailed to u.

castrotroy80: Goodevening house, i choose Isolo document pick up and VO told me to pick my passport up at VI abeg where do i go, VI or Isolo. And what other document do i need to go with to the pick up center? Urgent response needed.

ohkay. If they have book on hold option go for it

Feexo: Yes. Why did you ask?



I emptied the account when I was coming last week, but I am expecting a deposit tomorrow morning.

MsNas: If I didn't have cash in my account, why would I try using it? Do Nigerian banks give overdraft? The card does not work on POS anymore. And its not only mine that is acting that way.

lol..sowiee Mam. wrong mention. neva wanted to mention feexo about paying for his bus. U got a PM tho.

Do you have Cash in Ur GTB naira account? if yes select the master card payment option. they will debit ur account directly.

Feexo: MsNas, I am presently staying in Queens,NY. My school is in Macomb, 3:45 mins ride by car. There is a train service from Chicago to Macomb and I am exploring that option too.

BigFrancis, thanks for the info about Greyhound. How does one go about making the payment since I am booking online and I only have cash with me?
