Good morning, please am trying to apply for US visa in Lithuania as I will be graduating July 2024, though I applied last year for tourism during summer but got denied, I want to retry again this may, I have travel to UK several times and I have expired Irish visa on my passport and valid 2 years UK visa and I have traveled to several Schengen countries, UAE, Egypt, Bene republic.



Please how best can I go about this US visa , I need advise.


Thanhs
It would be hard to get US visa from Lithuania if your residence in Lithuania will end shortly after you graduate.
There's really nothing keeping you in Lithuania

Please, I’ll like to find out if Nigerians who apply from the UK gets the same visa validity period like those who apply from Nigeria? Say, Nigerians get 5years for B1/B2, is it also 5years for Nigerians applying in the UK? I know some countries get 10 years but don’t know if the validity will be tied to the applicant Country of origin. If 5 years, did it also start last year? This question is open to anyone who knows.
Should be the same

Erm
India and China combined are over 3billion people .
2 countries accounting for nearly half of the world's population.


Same way other Africans feel about Nigerians we're circa 200million of say 1billion or so African population
So as far as migration goes there will be more Indians or Chinese anywhere

Hello Gurus in the house.

Please I need guidance on visiting the US for a vacation..

2022 while I was in Nigeria tourists visa for vacation was denied.

Currently, I am in the UK as a skilled worker for a year now, I want to visit the US for a vacation, what and what do I need.

Do I still go on a tourist visit on vacation or conference, if it's conference, then what conferences will relate to my kind of job as a skilled worker for Health Care Assistant/Support worker.
So I don't really know what the US embassy wants.

I don't know if i am not doing the right thing with the DS160 form as expected.

Please your suggestion and opinions will count. Thanks
You're over thinking this.
No need to create a reason to travel just to get rhe visa.
If you're going for vacation then put the details in the DS160 form.

Then get bank statement and proof of your right to atay in the Uk , employer, brp etc. That's it

Please be calming down, my question is not thrown at a particular set of people, it's to everyone in the house please.

Your opinion you have stated and it's appreciated. Notwithstanding I only expressed myself about the time frame being two long, after all some people didn't wait that time frame and they got it. We are here to help one another and not to make mockery of one

Cheers
Go to the living in the UK thread and ask your question there . You'll find ppl with your profile there

Applying for US visa from other countries is different from apply for US visa from Nigeria.
Process for both is different

Good evening everyone. Please I'd appreciate your help if you can provide answer to my question. I want to apply for social work in University of Sunderland but I saw IELTS 7.0 as English requirement. I didn't see anywhere where it was indicated that I can use WAEC instead. Has anyone used WAEC successfully? Is the IELTS requirement a must?

Thank you!! This is really informative. I actually thought out of state fees are like other states within the US
It's is for both if you're resident in other states then typically you're subject to out of state fees.
Intl students also subject to out-of state fees.


Also if you get funding that says you have tuition waiver please check if that tuition waiver is for in state fees or out of state fees else ypu will still have a deficit

Hello everyone, can anyone please recommend universities that have low tuition fees? I want to apply for a Masters Program, but I don't know which state to focus on.

Also, is there any ongoing scholarship application at the moment?

Thank you.
You might just want to put
Universities with low tuition in your Google search.

Best to start with the course you want to study first then check for tuition fees. Just remember as an international student you are subject to our of state tuition fees. Secondly the school application will also estimate your living expenses

Scholarships and funding are specific to each school and you'll find that information from school website check for financial aid section or just email the department and ask for available funding.

Plenty current and past intl students also share their process on YouTube so search there. Type in the search bar and you will get recommendations
FamilyRe: Walked Into The Introduction Ceremony Of My 6yrs Relationship by Taal17: 2:12pm On Mar 30, 2024
Irreplaceable01:
The pregnancy was real. I have evidences, but chose not to post. All pregnancy symptoms were visible. There was changes in her body system, shape and colour. Even up to appetite,smell, craving (I was buying cat fish pepper soup like mad). There was a time she was having sleepless time, will be on call with her late into the night.

Registered her for antenatal at a general hospital and also for native treatment for massaging of the stomach. The woman she registered with confirmed and is available to confirm that she was pregnant.

We visited my mum when the pregnancy was around 4/5 months in. My mum confirmed the pregnancy (my mum can spot a pregnant woman from far and she will be right).

I have enough legal ground and evidences to take up the pregnancy issue with her and her family. Even up to when she told me she was pregnant for me.

People that are calling me a SIMP might not be able to repeat that if we meet offline.
You are not a SIMP abeg.
I just think it's unlikely she was up to 7months that's all.

IId she really miscarried at 7months she won't be able to recover quickly to do an introduction ceremony

To abort a 7month pregnancy is to go under anesthesia and it's highly unlikely any hospital will want to run the risk of losing mother for that. In most countries 6months is a viable baby.

I do empathize with your loss of both the relationship and your baby. You are still grieving so I'd advise you seek professional counselors and stay off any relationship casual or otherwise for awhile.

tuzle:
wrong, it depends. I know someone that is pregnant now, she is slim and if she wear all this flowing gown, I swear u can't know she is pregnant. This particular person was still discussing with my sister that she hopes to give birth by july
And again you don't get what I'm saying
He said he S$X with her few days to the to the introduction and she was 7montha pregnant. Now she tells him she made mistake that she wasn't pregnant
The example you gave is someone in her 2nd trimester..that is different from him who thought is she was at 7months which is 3rd trimester. Most pregnancies are viable in 3rd trimester
Your sisters friend as you mentioned if she wears flowing how you won't know abi? That's because she's slim..if she doesn't wear such gowns you will know even at 1st and 2nd trimester.
There's is no abdominal fat covering the area for slim people so once the womb has a growing fetus then it will push out from the lower abdomen. Pregnancy stretches your lower abdominal muscles
The exceptions might be if the slim person has consistently exercises the abdominal muscles throughout sports, exercise or dance then the abdominal muscles will be taut and no fat. Those people can look like they just ate a meal and be 8months pregnant

Just stumbled upon the rumour that King Charles has pancreatic cancer. Hope its not true. But if true, I feel sad about it. My thoughts are with him.

Cancer is a b**ch but pancreatic ca is a different beast. Due to the location of the pancreas its many times only diagnosed late and for same reason, if not caught very early it's mostly not ammenable to active treatment. The dying process is also terrible characterised by intractable pain.
It's prostrate cancer

The pregnancy was real, the symptoms were there. She's a very slim girl so the pregnancy was not very obvious.

Secondly, the guy that did the introduction doesn't stay in the same state as her, so it was a long distance arrangement, possible why I didn't suspect it. But the symptoms were there. Why will someone not pregnant be attending antenatal, won't the nurses and doctors detect it? Aside from antenatal I registered her for a lady that does native medicine for pregnant women...that lady specializes in massaging the stomach making sure the baby was well positioned.
Bros it's even slim girls that pregnancy shows more. 7montha na haba. Majority of females I know are slim .

She probably lied to you about pregnancy and the time.
Anyways she's deceptive, e go meet her for front

worksmart:
You implied she was 7 moths pregnant or did you mean to say 7weeks?

If 7 months how can she use the excuse that she mistakenly thought she was pregnant but she wasn't especially since you claimed that you had sex with her just days before the Introduction?

Also if you regularly spoke to her aunt, why do you think the aunt did not inform you that the family did not approve of the marriage?
I thought I was the only one confuses about this 7month pregnancy.
How do you have sex with 7month pregnant woman days before her introduction and she says she want pregnant. Pregnant belle no dey hide when you remove cloth na
FamilyRe: Walked Into The Introduction Ceremony Of My 6yrs Relationship by Taal17: 10:32pm On Mar 28, 2024
Irreplaceable01:
Read and understand before you reply. I already proposed marriage to her which she accepted and started meeting with her family long before the pregnancy came up.
There's a part of your story that is not clear

5months is difficult to hide. 7montha is almost impossible.
So if you saw her in your house just a few days in yo the said introduction . How wouldn't you know she is no longer pregnant? Unless you are not sure of what a 5month or 7month pregnancy looks like. Most doctors won't abort that late and recovery is not quick. How will her belly go down in a few days to do introduction

Thank you for highlighting this.
So, with 75k household income, and kids less than 10. One could get some shikini £ in child benefits?
Even if it’s £10 per week, that is the cost of a couple of pints of milk.

I no go mind. Anything that is ‘free’ go collect. This particular awoof no go ever run Belle. I have “over-invested” in this system abeg.
You should be able to get at least 150 per month . Using my siblings case as comparison

I agree

I just remembered during COVID when councils were scrambling to house homeless people temporarily in hotels and the like so as to reduce the spread. I imagine most are back on the streets now.

I think the key "benefit" of settled status is freedom from immigration control and being able to work anywhere, be self employed etc without any restrictions, and able to provide fully for one's self and family cos most state benefits are shikini in comparison
Se how Zahra started using shikini lol!!
