Yomi174:
Hi everyone. Please I got a date for few weeks after
Resumption date. What do I do please?

Hi,
What I’ve seen people write time after time is to apply for Emergency Appointment within 60days of resumption.

Thank you so much!
I'll keep trying. I knew someone with understanding of the situation would reply.
Yeah, we should get the new DS-2019 in the coming days as ECFMG already stated that it has been issued. So, it's just for the programe to send it and like you mentioned i do plan to get it before leaving here. Like you correctly stated, the current one expires at the end of June and she already has her offer letter which I didn't think i would need but would make a copy of based on your suggestion.
I actually thought about that and i seem to still be interested in life in Nigeria against my wife's wishes just in the event anything goes wrong. I studied engineering and my COREN still dey intact.
Once again, thank you.

PS; the other ITK guy, i worked out of state for many months last year as an independent adjuster. Pay was about $3k weekly after tax ( not too bad for a puppet like me to climb roofs for). So, it's not a must you live with your wife all year round.
OGA! Visa did not expire more than 40 months ago, we haven't even spent 36months here. They gave 1 year visa and we renew DS-2019, EAD and drivers licenses yearly.
My son is in school and my wife doesn't need to travel to Nigeria with me. She sef get her work nau? So, as my Papa die make all of us just carry our kaya dey go Naija?

Is this how people just go out of their ways attacking others without being constructive in any way?
The mods here need to watch people here for their abusive and attacking tendencies.
A simple google search would show that people go to Canada and Mexico to renew the J1/j2 visas.

You are just a funny human being, I have never mentioned anything about F1 in any of my posts.
You don’t need to argue or be abusive, I just wanted to know if there’s any reason I am seeing appointments not available and I believe I am eligible for a Dropbox in Nigeria because I left just about 3 years ago in fact less than 3 years ago
Nothing contradictory!
What’s the problem Sir?
Residency in IM is 3 years and Nephrology fellowship is 2 years starting from July 1.
What’s the issue? I have my EAD and I work here so? It’s my family and I’m fine with whatever comes out of it.

Hey 🤠

** You cannot be serious about your claim below ?

For your information, people renew J1/J2 visas anywhere outside of the US and they usually use Mexico and Canada. I only decided to use Nigeria because I have a valid reason to be in Nigeria and didn’t want to go through the stress of going to Canada or Mexico and the fact that my Dad’s death was sudden.

1. You know nothing about J1 and J2 .



Hi Man, you are the one that knows little to nothing about J1/j2 visas.
When you come in with your one year visa, the airport guys stamp you in with a D/S written on your passport. That means you are legal for as long as your studies permit.
Now, when you are done you can decide to look for a program in an area that qualifies an underserved area which would allow you waive the 2 year return policy. I have several guys that have done this that I know one on one.
When you finish residency, you can then decide to apply for Fellowship which further elongates your initial study time to 5 years from 3 years.
I have my EAD and a driving license that allows me to work without depending on my spouse.
You could be as negative as you want, it’s your choice Sir.
Goodluck to you.

@oyotunjiUSA, I don’t know you Sir and I wonder how you can authoritatively tell me of my case.
Like I requested, people who are in the know of my situation can please help when they are ready.
You having a J2 doesn’t in any way mean you can’t travel without your J1 spouse.
Being in the US for 3 years under J2 status is not illegal in any way. My spouse is about to finish the first 3 years of residency next month and has been admitted into Harvard for another 2years of fellowship.
I have a DS-2019 and EAD that are both valid. It is renewed every year right here in the US.
If you can’t contribute positively pls just skip the question.

Hi Guy's, Thanks to y’all that take time out to help people here.
I’m currently in the US on a J-2 and plan to come home for my Dad’s funeral, I filled my DS-160 some days ago but all I’ve been seeing is “there are currently no available appointments’.
Is there a way to get around that?
Also, I think I’m eligible for a Dropbox as my visa expired less than 48months ago but I also haven’t gotten any confirmation email based on what I’ve read that one will get that first if eligible.
Do you think changing the venue from Lagos to Abuja might be of any help?
