AfonjaBoston:


Bros,

Public Affairs and Public Administration are not the same.
How old are you?
Funny you brought up your dad's citizenship.
Why would you rather "immigrate" to the USA to go and study as an international student when you have HUGE benefits if you travel under the F1 or IR2

Your story is not adding up.

Keep exposing yourself

I see no reason why y'all are taking it hard on him, if one chooses to study even Fishery is it your business? Do u know d goals he has set down for himself?
Try stick to ur lane n mind ur business coz I bet u if u c this dude in person u won't alter this trash to him
Nairaland don give una platform to talk nonsense to person

cmbagwu:
My visa was delayed yesterday the 9th of June by a young VO in Windows 4 after delaying the guy before me. I'm still trying to figure out what went wrong. I was as confident as the VO.

VO: Good morning
Me: Good morning and how're your?
VO: Great! Please pass me your passport, Sevis and i20.
Me: There you go. Passed them.
VO: Why did you choose this course?
Me: I chose to study Public Affairs because, asides the fact that it's a sub-field of my undergraduate study which is Political Science, this course is a vital requirement needed to take up a position as a Public relations officer after my masters degree.
VO: So you will come back to your place of work when you finish your masters?
Me: Yes please but as a Public relations officer as I am currently a Customer Service Executive in my place of work.
VO: So where do you work and what are your duties?
Me: I work with XYZ Bank PLC as a customer service executive and I manage the social media platform which is Facebook, Live chat and Twitter handle. I'm duly responsible for handling customers queries and complaints and I provide feedback from customers not satisfied with a particular product or service to the unit involved for proper review of the complaint and possible timely resolution which is conveyed to customers on these platforms. We also monitor the channels (Mobile app, Online banking and ATM) for network fluctuations.
VO: Okay.. So what will this course do for you?
Me: This course will give me the knowledge and insights to manage emerging issues in my organization both internally and externally. It will also help me develop current policies and besides, it's a vita requirement needed to take up a position in my current place of work.
VO: Are you married?
Me: No please.
VO: Any kids?
Me: None for now.
VO: I can see Public affairs on your DS 160 and on your i20 I'm seeing Public administration.
Me: My admission is in Public affairs but when my I20 was sent to the US government for processing they didn't have my course of study as it is stated on their system and the course closely related was Public administration. Both courses have same curriculum and course outlines. So it's no different but just the name.
VO: Okay. Starts typing for a minute or two.
VO: Have you traveled outside the country before?
Me: No please, haven't had a reason to until now.
Vo: Okay. Types again and again and again.
Then he handed me a white paper. As I was about to jubilate, he gave me back my passport and i20... and he said, I'm sorry I won't be granting you a visa at this time. Then I looked at the paper.. 214B. Now in a white paper... I shook my head.
Me: May I please confirm why I'm being delayed again?
VO: it's written in the paper I just gave you.
Me: Thank you. Didn't know where I gathered the strength to laugh. But I laughed anyways.

This isn't the end of the world. I said to myself. I just drafted a mail and sent to my school telling them about the discrepancy in my admission letter, and what I have on my i20 and the international office was kind enough to send me a mail stating the reason for the discrepancy and asked me to print it and send apply again.

I have chosen to defer till Spring 2018 coz school (New Mexico Highlands University) resumes on the 15th and I don't want to start explaining and speaking English at the POE.. Let me give myself time.

Sorry bro I guess the VO had issues that morning coz I see nothing wrong with your transcript
I also deferred my admission to spring coz I need a break from this whole VO drama

SimonWales:



When she asked you "has anything changed yet?" You responded "NO". That is where you made her lose confidence in your. The reality is this, why did you reapply if you have not done a review in your previous refusal and make amendments? The point that you didn't do an evaluation on your past interview shows you are not serious and ready to get the visa.

The embassy has a policy. If you are refused and you wanna really, that's fine but come with something new that will help your case to onveinece the VO. But remember, don't lie or bring false evidence. You can't keep doing the same thing and expect a different result. If you tried the first time and got a refusal, evaluate your interview and preparation and then make some few good changes.

Thanks a lot

electronic:


You didn't change anything so...

I really don't understand the whole thing right now coz it seems Abuja is messed up

Good morning house
Had my first delay 10th of July n again had my second delay 31st of July.....Both in Abuja
Was delayed last year for a B1/B2 visa before now

Here's my transcript below for yesterday, really confused

Me: Good morning
Vo: Act like she didn't hear me
Me: I ignored too
Vo: What course are u going for
Me: Master in educational Leadership/Administration
Vo: Why this school
Me: I choosed d skul coz it's ranked number one among other schools in New Mexico for successful career outcome for its students, it's also known for its renowned academic excellent, it has a low student to staff ratio which will enable me learn easily, n I'll also be working with prof James burns whom ive being in contact with right from my admission process, he agreed I joined his research group upon my arrival.
(She was just nodding, only God knows why she was nodding)
Vo: Then she stated interacting with one other new lady that she was tutoring, her attention on me was so divided. All this started from d Begining of d interview.
Vo: I noticed u applied few weeks back and was denied
Me : yes
Vo: Has anything changed since then (She meant on my ds160)
Me: No, still the same
Vo: Then she continued with her interaction with d lady, this time two other ladies. To me I was wondering if that was d right time to tutor someone.....While outside I saw her taking this same lady around showing her some certain things even before my interview......
BACK TO D TRANSCRIPT
Vo: After tutoring for a while then she asked Why should I grant u this visa?

Me: I need all the necessary skills I can possibly get in becoming a successful school administrator, thereby helping to improve on d quality of education rendered in my dad school where I work as d school administrator, This program will train me to lead a nurturing and inclusive learning environment for children at all grade level, it will also train me to motivate teachers and even students and also motivate them to work to their best potential, and set a tone for continuous development...
Vo: She looked at her screen and continued her discussion and after a while she handed me d blue paper n bla bla bla


Please people where on earth have I gone wrong?
I'm really tired and confused coz my program starts 14th of August

Teminiyii:
Pls I need help urgently... I was delayed at Abuja embassy and av rescheduled another appointment but I just found out now that it was the formal code that was on my Ds160 that's on my appointment confirmation page not the new code on my Ds160... pls what will I do. Thanks

Had similar issues a month back... What u need to do is make a photocopy of ur recent ds160 and your new appointment confirmation page (if possible colored printing)and attach it to a mail stating that you have issues with the code because they don't tally and you will appreciate it if it's fixed.
Send the mail with the attached new ds160 and ur appointment page to:
support-nigeria@ustraveldocs.com

Make sure you state the problem clearly
