ysteph: Someone should please help me out. I successfully renewed my B1/B2 through dropbox last month. Third time having a B1/B2. However, i just received my i20 and planning to apply for a student visa at the end of June. My school resumes in August. Q1. What are my chances of getting an F1 visa with my valid B1/B2. Q2. In the event that i am refused an F visa, do you think my valid B1/B2 will be cancelled.
P.S. I am going with one dependent (child) who also has a valid B1/B2.

Hello bro, what’s the reason for why some ppl can’t get renewal for the temporary green card after it expires? When you get a GC through marriage, and the marriage is less than two years old before your interview, you're given two year GC and after it expires, you'll have to file for the permanent GC ( which is 10 years ). Most of the time the reason why some ppl aren't able to renew their GC, is because maybe the spouse found out along way that he/she is being used purposely for GC. Other times too, some just take off after getting the temporary GC, thinking they're off the hook, forgetting when the time come to renew, you still need your citizen spouse to file for the permanent GC. And when your spouse know that after you get your permanent GC, you'll abscond, he or she will do it. This is what some ppl do,when they get married, they don't file right way, they wait for like a year and a half, so that by the time they get called for interview, the marriage would've been two years old, so they just get a permanent GC. 10 Likes 1 Share |

What's your point? I am a natural born American from centuries back. Any child born from me will be an American citizen no matter where the child is born. If I move to Nigeria and have a child with one of its citizens guess what, the child is still American and Nigerian., dual citizenship I guess. A child born outside of the US to one or more US citizen parents is a citizen of the US alright, but that child can't never stand to become president of the US that's the difference. You must be a natural born citizen ( born on US soil or it's territories ) to become the president of the US. |

chuksvato: Good day VO, Please i have a question to ask.
I was denied an F-1 visa August this year and am about to re-apply. In my first application i i used my dad's company as the person/entity paying for my trip and also in the section of previous employment i said i have been helping out my dad in his business omitting that of my mum who is a community pharmacist because i thought since my dad is the sponsor that i can only add him. My question goes thus; Can i add my Dad and mum as the entity/organization paying for my trip and also can i include my mum's pharmacy in the previous employment section since i do help her at times in her pharmacy shop?
Please VO help me with this because am confused on what to do. my dad is into importation of motorcycle and motorcycle spare parts and the major i want to study in the US is Pharmacy. Ask your questions here: https://www.nairaland.com/3905661/general-u.s.a-student-visa-enquiries-part. |

Yeanca: My big cousin in the US who is a citizen just filed for his Father,he sent a msg that the filing has being approved,please how do we help get interview date for the father,thanks...urgent answers will be must appreciated I believe your cousin filed an immigrant visa ( IR5 ) for the dad. With this kind of visa, it's the national visa center who's going to schedule an appointment for interview at an appropriate time for the dad. So no need of filling the DS160 form or booking an appointment for visa. Everything will be done by your citizen cousin. And every approved petition, is assigned a case number, with the case number you can check the monthly visa bulletin, to have an idea when he his likely to be interview. 1 Like |

slimmy2005: I cannot co-sign for anyone except my wife or kids. Before I co-sign for my kids, they have to show they are worth it and I wouldn’t co-sign an amount I can’t take care incase everything goes south. I consigned a student loan for my lil sister, wasn't easy and then again, I couldn't see her fall out of status. You can only do that for your blood relative. This shot my debit to income ratio of the roof. Her student loans always reflected on my credit report. It was worth it thou, she is gainfully employed now. 5 Likes |

My sponsor is my mother and I have her bank statements.

I'm still perplexed on how to escape the "Why community college" question and why I chose Washington when my siblings are there. Washington state or D.C.? What's the name of the community college? |

armyofone: I made a big mistake. Doing the paperwork for my mom, I did it all by self and now I found out the names difference from the paperwork I attached. It had her maiden name ( her father's name and native middle name) they asked me to provide proof it is the same person. I also found they spelt her name on her passport differently too. On that same passport, the DOB is different from what I assumed her age was. I innocently did the mistake of non communication. Problem now my mom doesn't keep/have paperwork I can provide.
Not sure how to advise you on this, since I didn't encounter a problem like this. I'll suggest you ask the visa officer here: https://www.nairaland.com/2669622/u.s-immigration-questions-ask-u.s |
