I'll advise you to use this website ( https://ieltsonlinetests.com/), it really helped me when I was to write mine. I used it for my speaking and listening test and had 8.0 in both (I wasn't even serious with it). They also have the writing and speaking test too(didn't use because the computer won't grade it). You practice with all the past questions at the IELTS exam library, check it out sha. martAKINOLA: Hello everyone.

Alright, thanks a lot, appreciate your help. But, IF I am able to renew it, would this be an issue at the embassy? oluezekiel: I'm not sure if you will be able to renew your Passport in Nigeria looking at the expiry date, more than six months. It is not "difficult" to renew your passport in the US, you only have to be proactive about it. Looking at your situation, it's advisable to start the renewal process in December 2021/January 2022. You should be fine.

[color=#990000][/color]Super happy for you. Congratulations, goes to show that delay is not denial. At this rate, we might need to open a new group for people traveling to the US ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) gbadeolu1: Hello guys. Got my visa approved today at the Abuja consulate. 2nd time attempt. Again, first to be interviewed.
Here's my my transcript:
VO: Good morning (I replied) VO: have you ever been to the US before? Me: No. Not to the US. VO: OK. How about any other country? Me: Yes. VO: Where Me: China. (He didn't hear, and I had to repeat that) VO: for how long were you there? Me: 2 years (he said oh, cool) VO: what did you go for? Me: I went there for my Master's program. VO: Ok. *The conversation above took place under the first one minute or so, even before taking my biometrics*
VO: ok, please place your fingers for capturing. (I did) VO: pass me your passport and documents. (He perused my i20 and typed at length. At a point he nodded his head as though in agreement with something. That sent a relaxing feel across my mind. I was like, this man is getting convinced I'm worthy o. lol
VO: What's your highest qualification? Me: Master's degree VO: In what? Me: Mechanical Engineering. VO: what's your specific area in mechanical engineering during your MS? Me: Electrochemical Corrosion (At this point, I was uneasy because my PhD research will not be exactly in this area any longer, and I will have to explain why it so. I wasn't really happy at this point. Thanks I have my nose mask on, cos my smile went away momentarily. lol)
VO: Ok, I see you have assistantship. How much of your tuition does it cover? Me: My tuition is around 33k but my overall expenses is $52,741 and that's even below my assistantship. And I have about 4k in surplus. VO: Yeah, that's right. VO: Are you single or married? Me: I'm married. (He briefly glanced at my ring finger, it was empty. VO: So, will your family go with you to the US? Me: No they won't. (He waited for more explanation) I continued to say, "but I plan to pay scheduled visit to Nigeria at least once in an academic session". A beautiful expression came on his face when he heard "scheduled visit" I really could perceive it. And he continued to type at length.
VO: What does your wife do? Me: She's into sales of clothing materials, shoes and bags. VO: Ok. He puts my newest passport in a box beside him leaving the old one behind at his front. At this moment, I knew it's a YES! He handed me the white paper and said "It will take about a week before your visa will be ready and you will need that paper to claim it" Me: Oh, ok. VO: You can go. Me: Wow. Thank you very much. God bless you. VO: you're welcome.
I'm the happiest man today!!! ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) 2 Likes |

Do you know the conditions for issuing CAS for taught masters? For Uni of Southampton, you need to have gotten your ATAS certificate and filled the CAS questionnaire, upload them and some other documents (your passport data page e.t.c).

Mrpen: I don't think F/G/C scholarship award is going to be according to state since the schools are the once to decide who they want. But the UK award might be state wise, since ptdf are paying entirely for the candidate will little or no subsidy from the schools. I also feel that's y the F/G/C award is going mysteriously.
