Sosao:
Don’t know about contacting them ooo
What if embassy finds out
All I can say is whatever the delay is we should just pray it gets resolved and our Ap turns to approved or issued ASAP
Embassy can never find out. The only thing they can do is to ask indirectly if the account and the amount is legit. They can only send this through mail. That's why on a legit bank statement, you will see the banks contact email. Even at this, the bank will never reveal the account balance at that moment to the embassy. The embassy itself has no right to demand that. The only answer the bank will give, is either a YES or NO.

Another thing again is that it is advisable to go to the bank and generate a bank statement directly from them. This generated statement will bear the stamp of bank, and where it is situated. Online generation of bank statement, are not easily approved and confirmed by the bank when embassy seeks to know the legitimacy of the statement. So this is why some legit statements are under AP for a long time. How fast your status changes from AP to approved, depends on how fast your bank responds to the query of the embassy.

Your visa is valid for 2 years and if you defer before leaving the school and is not over a year you don’t need to apply for another visa again.

But contact US embassy to find out if the rules has change or not.

Lastly the nunber you sent to me via email, I thought it’s for you because I called it and the person say he didn’t know auditmonkey your user name.
Sir, I sent you a pm. Please reply as its urgent. Thank you so much and God bless you!!

Lol. I’m only preparing towards either of the response (yes or No). Me being positive will not change the outcome of the Visa. I hope you have submitted your application?

Can I send u a pm?
Should send in tomorrow. I travelled back to jos because I failed to go with a document. That's why I didn't submit on Friday. However, I am very confused now because of the US stuff, whether I should just quit the France stuff and save my money even though I have spent a sum already . Sure, you can send me a pm bro

TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by TheNoble007(m): 5:36am On Jul 18, 2019
Predstan:
No. But at VFs, you are going to pay 44k
44k really?? I thought that they said the fee is 99euros.How come! Did you include courier charge bro?
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by TheNoble007(m): 4:43am On Jul 18, 2019
Predstan:
I’ve not submitted yet. VFs turned me back that they are attending to no one. I got there 12 noon immediately after campus France interview. I’m afraid you won’t be able to submit your documents on Friday after your interview
OK, I heard that Lagos is always filled with applications so you will have to go there very early today. Mine is at Abuja anyway, and my interview is scheduled for 9.30am. Did you pay any fee at campus France when you got there?

OK. It will be good news. Did you apply in Abuja?

Nice. Hope you get a positive response soon smiley
I am still waiting tho angry

Please gurus in the house, do I have to apply for a student Visa through Campus France? huh. That is what a friend just told me and now I am confused. I followed the link sent to me and that took me directly to VFS and now I am hearing something different cry
Hi. Have you gotten your student visa already?

Ofcourse. I’ve booked train from Paris to my location as well(Paid)
Sharp guy. I love your spirit bro. Are you interviewing at Lagos? Mine is in Abuja

Bro, enter the website now. The tickets are cheaper than what I saw in the day ooo
Alright. Just make sure that the travel date you pick, is the same with your date of departure on you visa application form.

Predstan:
Ok I need to reprint my cover letter be dat. I wrote in there that I will be using Ethiopia. The Turkish fEe is expensive ooo
Lol. Very expensive. It's just that there reservation days or grant is longer than others. It's just for visa sake. It's not really necessary to state the airline you want to use IMO. Just imagine that your cover letter or letter of motivation for student visa is hand written. Are you interviewing at Lagos?
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by TheNoble007(m): 11:23pm On Jul 16, 2019
Predstan:
I’ve not made reservation yet, since it’s stated on the checklist that you can submit a flight ticket that’s not confirmed, I think you can go ahead with that. By the way, what website you used for that. I am planning to book directly on Ethiopia airline website tomorrow morning which lasts only for 24hours
Go to Turkish airline website directly. Book from there. I will do mine on Thursday.

The program he’s going for in the US starts this August.
Brother, did you reserve flight booking using Turkish airline? I did a dummy booking and discovered that reservation last only three days. Did you observe this?

Why not apply for your US Visa in Paris? You stand a far higher chance of getting it, i believe.
Oh thank you. I was thinking that the process might be lengthy. And moreover, I am applying for a French student visa. My appointment is this Friday. I am thinking that applying for US student visa in Nigeria will be seamless. What do you think?

Is there anything like expedite appointment for US Visa interview?
Yes!!
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by TheNoble007(m): 9:14am On Jul 14, 2019
Predstan:
Sorry, did you submit all of this in black and white copy or a colored copy
Vital documents like admission letter, travel insurance, Bank statement of sponsor(original) if you are using a sponsor. Guarantee letter, your passport data page, accommodation certificate, should be colored. Others, can be black and white. You will be fine!

Wow!!! I bought mine for 23k with Aiico
Aiico is an American company, that's why it's higher. I visited their office in Jos, and I was told same price. I ran away with the speed of light!

Predstan:
Hmmm. Personally I think you can flaunt this to the VO but you don’t know when the French Embassy will release your passport to you.
Another thing is that, you might not get appointment anymore with the US Embassy ooo except maybe in Abuja.
I will apply for an expedite appointment for the US interview. And I will also request for a letter from the international office of my school saying that I can enter the States after enrollment in my department. It is not my fault. I have not seen where schools will request for proof of income of sponsor on remaining deficits. If not for my advisor, I would have bounced the school. I expressly told him yesterday that I am considering my other options, and he immediately told me by Monday, he will see what he will do more on the matter. He even told me to schedule a visa appointment ASAP . I said that's not possible without my i20 lol.
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by TheNoble007(m): 1:01pm On Jul 13, 2019
Predstan:
It is different bro. Make sure you have a travel insurance. The social security is generally for everyone studying in France and covers only 30% of the cost of Medicals. You will still have to register another one even when u get there housing and Medical insurance which can cost up to 30euro monthly
Yea, I have with cornerstone insurance. I bought it at the rate of 15850 nairas for three months . Which company's travel insurance are you using? The Erasmus program I am going for, is a backup. I intend to go for US visa interview after France. Is this ideal? Though I am yet to schedule an appointment at the US embassy. Still waiting for my i20.
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by TheNoble007(m): 12:55pm On Jul 13, 2019
Predstan:
Thanks Bro
I just realized that my admission letters covers my social security as a student of the program. It was expressly written. Is this different from travel insurance? Because yesterday I bought a travel insurance with cornerstone. Hope I didn't waste my money.

Good morning fam. My school (CUNY) is demanding for a proof of income like paystub, tax returns etc of my sponsor, in order to get my I 20. Is this ideal? . Apart from sponsor's bank statement to cover deficits. I got a merit scholarship together with a GRA. I gained admit late because I applied late, and I feel like abandoning this whole thing for France. My sponsor is a business man. Very few business men have tax returns. Can you please advise me on what to do? Thanks!
