USnobeparadise:
Is there anyone that had his or her passport pickup location in Port Harcourt? What was your experience there and did they require valid photo ID? because in my case the only valid photo ID which I have is my ECOWAS passport which is held by them. But if they may require photocopy of my passport that will be easier.

Don't you have voters ID card

Here in Lagos they do accept photo copy of your data page

Gud am.....Jst got admitted @wm uni for undergraduate studies with funding of $4k annually.. Wat is d next step to be taken?

Exactly what Slimmy said, just defer if it's not spring because I don't think you can see avail be date for August before your I-20 gets to you even to get emergency date now no be small thing

matthew1234:
Pls gurus there is an issue someone brought to me and am unable to solve it.Pls it's urgent house.While trying to fill the DS form she was asked the normal security question that what's the four letters that begins the father's name.The father's name has only four letters.Her Embassy date is the 27th of August.
Pls,what can be done.Its really urgent

I think is first 5 letters and not 4. In this case, let the person call the embassy so that they could help

meritdee:
Input the whole 4 letters of the father's name then.

That section was progam and usual asked for first 5 letters of the surname..

I think he will need to visit or call the embassy so that they could help to resolve this

elmadavida:
I saw it on a blog as part of documents to take to the POE.
My school requires some proof of immunization before registering for classes. I don't know if I can do it here or will have to do it when I get to the school.

Is better you tell your school that you can get it done here and no need to come and do it over there because it expensive over there so that it can save cost for you

BloodyMitch:

Denvan:
Still basking in the euphoria of my visa approval yesterday.

Scheduled for 9am, but arrived few minutes past 7. Had to wait till to ten b4 we were called. (I was already annoyed bcause I dnt like waiting and waiting and hearing discouraging words from pple, especially wen I hv an examinatn or interview; prefer to just come, go in and do business...). Anyway, gat no choice but to relax.

I was with my bag containing my laptop and other belongings and hv resolved not to keep it with those women hustling outside the embassy; one of them took sbd's bag and just hanged it on a tree while she continues to attend to other customers buying food frm her... for my mind, make I give u my bag, make another person carry am go and u go come tell me story or worst still, u run away...

Anyway, got inside and after a long wait and queue, it was my turn at window 9. Here was what transpired...

ME: Good morning ma
VO: (Did not answer)...pass me your DS 160 and Pport...., I did
VO: What about your Form I-20...., I passed it also
VO: Where are u going for your Masters?
ME: Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey
VO: Why Rutgers?
ME: Rutgers is the best school in New Jersey
VO: (cut in..) As in? What did u say?
I gave d same answer, and she repeated the same question. (I was thinking maybe because I was stuttering cause I am a stammarer so she did not hear me clearly or perhaps she is doubting my assertion that Rutgers is d best or sth.... so I quickly rephrased and stylishly moved to other cogent reasons...)
ME: Rutgers is one of the best schools in US with a faculty/student ratio of 1/13. It is highly rated in terms of Engineering especially in my field (Energy systems)
VO: (Looks at my Form-I20) But your Form I-20 shows that u are going for a Masters in Mechanical Engineering (design and control)!!
ME: Yes. Design and control of Energy Systems
VO: Ok, tell me about it.
ME: The world survives and thrives on energy. Energy generation, storage and control is essential for human existence and as such every avenue to generate it must be harnessd. I hope to major in energy generation from vibrating bodies, knowing fully well that every object vibrates continuously, though at different frequencies.
VO: Who is sponsoring u?
ME: I got a scholarship from my state government and my brother will be co sponsoring.
VO: Got any document to show?
ME: Sure. (Gave her the account statement and the scholarship letter)
VO: (scan through the documents and passed them to me....started typing....
(me I just they look...for my mind, tell me those golden words.......)
Your visa is approved, take your Form I-20, you will need it at the point of entry bla bla bla...
ME: (smiles...) Thanks and walked away majestically

I want to sincerely appreciate everyone of us for our contributions to this thread. Special thanks to Slimmy and Darklight...u guys are wonderful.
Success to those that are going soon; u will also come here to testify.

Congrats and enjoy your stay in Obamaland
