Caveat: This is the longest Nairaland post you will ever read in your life.

Englishboy:

@



The Bitter truth is is most people will still come here with the mindset of hustling and overstaying and later get papers and USCIS will continue granting them green card if they found them worthy of it. It is not in our place to criticize them if USCIS didnt/dont criticize them.

America is indeed a land of opportunities for every nation that comes here.

Can you get an adjustment of status from the B1 to F1 in the U.S. without coming back to naija U.S. embassy?

Like you said, it is much easier getting admission and making tuition payment whilst in the U.S. with a B1/B2 visa. The wahala of coming back to naija to go through the process is tiring.

Dremca:
Oga boss, he is looking for arrangy connects. Do you have anyone available

Philadelphia:
Who is Twoods to scold anyone? What right does he have to do that? Na him dey pay visa fee abi sevis fee?
If he is your god, just know that he is not everyother person's god.
Make you and Twoods park well.

Dremca:
Cc: Twoods has the connects, he will reply you

Mitchely:
Thank you for your advice, very helpful as I am even in the process of reapplying for them. How do we manage visit visas for a 4-5 years PhD program. Are plans not allowed to change over a 4-5 years duration. Moreover, the question are they coming with you appeared to mean are they coming with you at the moment? Maybe I should have answered, No but they will join me later.

Mitchely:
Good day all, my wife and daughter F2 visa delayed at Abuja this morning majorly because I stated during my own interview they were not coming with me which was true at the time.
Please any helpful advice? And when is the next available date in Abuja? I am so devastated right now.

oduzbaba89:
good evening my people of nairaland, what's the best way to tackle a question when u are asked why are u re applying again cos the applicant works under his dad.

thanks

dayoseun70:
Everyone should read please and learn from it

@Twoods really I like your person.
You are smart and intelligent
You are blunt and truthful
But there is one thing you still lack as an individual, I don't know if you're someone that easily accepts the truth if you know. [/b] YOU LACK WISDOM [b]
OR I SHOULD PROBABLY SAY YOU'RE SHORT ON IT.

Philadelphia:
I never wanted to comment on this thread but I'd just do that now.
If you really read "your" Bible like you claimed, you wouldn't have made this your comment I'm quoting. Well, like you said; "your" bible. I don't know what's there.
Secondly, you should never make any statement that you're unsure of. Worst still, making it general; take for instance, you said; "Nigerians in the US are dishonest and fraudulent".

Philadelphia:
You also said that the reason this thread exists is because of fraud. This statements are appalling.

Philadelphia:
You benefitted from this "fraudulent thread" and you've also been advising people on this "fraudulent thread". Does this not make you a perpetrator of fraud?

Philadelphia:
Not all Nigerians living in the US are dishonest or fraudulent as you claimed. Most crimes committed in the US are not done by Nigerians. Next time you make a statement, be sure of your facts before generalising.

Philadelphia:
Lastly, show some humility brother. You're lucky to have gotten your F1 visa approved but that does not make you more intelligible or more human than the rest prospective ones. It does not make you a god to decide who gets visa approved or denied. You've been in the US and know so much about the US does not guarantee that you'd be better than the one whose visa will be approved sometime this month. Your advice and encouragements are much needed here but ple a series be calm and coherent in your speech. Please be humble also. This is a public forum and wrong opinions can be expressed about people, tribes, ethnicity, culture and countries.
Remember, Proverbs 16:18 says that "Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall". That should be in your bible too.
I hope you understand.
God bless.

Ijebuboy525:
So sorry about your delayed visa, i understand what it's takes to be destabilized before interview, that makes me remember my first interview around May, when myself and other friend entered a one chance bus on our way to the embassy, those guys no get mercy atall, thank God we didn't go with our phones, they only left #500 for the two of us, me and my guy just turn mumu after the scene , after that we still go face another passport palava from those guys hustling at the embassy gate, we were forced to take another passport on credit and gave them our wallets containing ATM cards and other stuffs, na blue paper still end the whole thing.

Just prepare your self well and refire, God of favor will speak for you.

Tekecoms1:
I think Jesus have many versions. The VO asked him who told him he will get the VISA and he said Jesus. The VO was not even bothered.

braginton60:
Hello Pharisee!!

Thomas91:

Agribusiness economics will help me develop good managerial competence .strong org skil and good business ethics so as to make good business decision in terms of agri....blabla...he listened well

Me: I was oppurtuned to be at a graduate seminar workshop during my youth service where agriculture graduate wr oriented about blabla...speakers make recommendation of some School in which graduate could purse dr Carreras at masters level..and it opened my eye to see schools that will be off good benefit. Went online to get more information about these schools and I felt comfortable .

LagosismyHome:
There are so many things wrong with Nigeria , i agree and even a little dealings i did this year made me convince myself that i can never live in Nigeria

that been said not all Nigerians are like . I have met many Nigerians who have outstanding characters so painting everyone with one brush means you Twood too are fraudulent and dishonest

You see how that not very nice

Yeanca:
You are right sir,OK...Gods Favour is all I crave for now,but I really wish to see The US then subsequently go there for holidays, I can't leave my civil service job and go and become a professional dishwasher in a foreign land,abeg OK,just holiday, but I pray for God's Favour,that's all

Brojay007:
I need help I have been expecting my i20 since October I was admitted around October I have forward all necessary documents that the school required of me (m-tech)

TheGrandChemist:
Oh yeah I got that squarely. I am your own reminder reminding you that you are dishonest, fraudulent, insincere and of course a haughty cheat. All you gotta do is deal with that else, you run into a fast-moving train like I earlier suggested.

TheGrandChemist:
I hate belabouring a point over and over again.

In answer to your question, yes it matters. Morally, it is unfair and unjust. C'mon man, think and speak logically like a man of sound mind that you are and not being blinded by partisanism.

Is it a just act for a thief to sentence a thief to jail? Is that what is obtainable in the USA? Even the Bible made mention of this, and I quoted it in my first post. Of course, this is hypocrisy.

Moreover, the fact that not all Nigerians are fraudulent and dishonest as he purported weakens his claim.

Thank you.

LagosismyHome:
The words of David Cameron ..... yet UK Policies enables stolen money to be used to buy properties with hidden identity. Hypocrisy

Corruption ( although not condoled by me) exist worldwide

LagosismyHome:
Not all Nigerians are dishonest or fraudulent. Everywhere in the world you have this as well .

American jails are full with American and so is British jail

Give us some credit .. There are loads of good hardworking Nigerians but we had this conversations before

TheGrandChemist:
If you really do read your Bible as you profess, you must have come across this verse "So when they continued asking Him, He lifted up Himself..., He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her." You are so quick to judge Nigerians as dishonest and fraudulent people, when you even seem to be worse off. You can prove Nigerians wrong by returning back to your country as you told the VO while you had your visa interview years back (Well, there's nothing to prove in the first place since you've already exceeded the 2 years given you to study in the USA).

From all indications, you are even more dishonest and fraudulent. You're just some dishonest, insincere, proud being who thinks he knows it all and is perfect; you always think you're perfect in all ramifications and can never be corrected. It's just a shame that you risk continuing your life this way.

And just so you know, I am aware the truth is pretty bitter, especially for a proud, unrepentant being like you. So, I really do not give a hoot if you get pissed off by this piece. However, if this piece gets you pissed off, you can help yourself by running into a fast-moving train; I hear there are high-speed trains in New Jersey, uh...you should know that by now.

dayoseun70:
If only you read your Bible you'd know there is a space for work and there is a space for Grace.
From her transcript she asked God for 30sec and she had it.
For others that were delayed, God is also with them something might be wrong somewhere for them, probably they didn't prepare well or it's not God's will for the right now.
Either ways brother @Twoods God also recognize hard work. But in her case it was grace. Do you understand.
And I think we need to talk

dayoseun70:
This is great grace. God is definitely with you bro.
Congratulations.

coldsummer:
YOU PUT GENUINE VISA APPLICANTS IN BAD SPOT

paulavon:
Pls someone should respond to my question, amongst all the documents to take along for the interview no one has mentioned copy of passport photograph but someone told me it is required, how true pls?

OtunOba15:
Desperate people....

I just hope they will own up to all the misrepresentation and come clean else they are about to donate another 64k to the US Embassy.

mckay4real:
I was denied an F1 visa on the 4th of December. I want to reapply and I've filled my DS-160 form and paid the visa application fee. But I'm having issues scheduling a visa interview as I can find where to book a new interview on my profile in the visa application page. Please anyone that has reapplied before should explain how I can go about it cos I need to schedule on time as my program starts on the 3rd January

Naaakua:
I think she has posted her story on Nairaland before but still wanted to help.

Question 1:
Please do you think that his previous appearance to the embassy will have any impact on him going again to the embassy since her husband went there already twice, but this time around with the invitation that my school will give to him. Or should she just forfeit him coming for her graduation which will be a dream come true for her, and just fill fiancé Visa for him after their wedding in July 2018 or just fill for Green Card for him?
