Hello everyone, please I didn't want to use my uncles statement of account for the I 20, the money was transferred to my account and I ve printed the statement, please how long can it stay in my account before I send it back to him ? Can I still use it for the interview after sending it back to him, for some reasons, he didn't want me to get his Usa account statement

Childofthemosth:
Hi Everyone,
Someone is trying to help me make my SEVIS payment at a Western Union office but they keep asking for Name of the person the money is going to.
I told them that they are to write SEVIS FEE in account name but they said no. What am I supposed to write there please? It's urgent, the person is still at the office

lanrywatt:
Dm me bro.. got Pittsburgh too

Vahn:
awaiting your reply

Please look for schools with cheaper COA.
Why will you want to go to a community school and still have a deficit of $33k
WIU is cheap with a COA of $23k
you can google universities with cheap tuition for international students

Tylerbaby:
You should have just used your Uncle's account like that. Now, you'd raise extra scrutiny. VOs frown at lump sum payments made in bank accounts. They already assumed that after the interview you'd return the money back to the owner. In which in this case, they'll be right.

Hello Guys,

Please I need your input on an issue.

I used my uncle's business account for SOA with a sponsorship letter signed by him.

Only for me to receive my I-20 stating his company's name as my sponsor.

Now I am at a cross road as I don't know if I should put my uncle name's or his company's name as sponsor on the DS-160 form?

Thanks guys in anticipation of your response.

Tobzzzty:
When they ask Person/Entity Paying for Your Trip on DS-160 form. Do they mean I should put my Funding details like all my sponsors. Or does it mean who is paying for just my flight tickets?

I selected Self because I thought it was about the flight trips. My sponsor is my dad and uncle.

1. Please will this be an issue during the interview?
2. What should I do since I have already submitted my DS160, paid and already booked for a visa appointment with this error.

Please I would appreciate a response. I am just confused.

Malone122:

Refill a new ds160 and correct the error with the person sponsoring the education (dad/ uncle )
Then update the new ds160 number on your CGI profile
Do this 3 days before the interview at most

hello guys.. quick question. my start date for my classes shows 9th of June and my interview is tomorrow. is this going to be a problem when I'm going to be interviewed.

walepepe21:


So sorry about your denial today , you will surely get it in your next attempt. But Just imagine how detailed you’re not and you said you need a help? How will those that intend helping you figure out your mistakes for you?

I think it’s onus on you to share your full transcript in what actually transpired between you and the VO so that people here can have a proper assessment about your denial/quagmire. Thank you and I wish you well in your next attempt

adeyusuf2000:


Make use of the details in the screenshot below. Please let me know if you are able to pay via western union.

Annie26:



The school is not RECOGNISED BY CFA

Girlbestfriend:


When I first read the transcript, what came to mind was No enthusiasm ___then again, it could just be him writing from a place of disappointment.

Malone122:
book a date first before the option to request emergency becomes available

goodguygonebad:
Have you fixed your problem?

Most of the workers at the western union shops no sabi this thing.

Ask your contact if he can reach Walgreens. On my last visit there, I filled in all the details myself.

Hassany4u:


Pls I want to know if this will be a problem during interview. The name on my i-20 is abiola nelson emmanuel while my names on my other documents are Emmanuel nelson abiola the spellings are correct but the arrangement is wrong.

Childofthemosth:
Thank you all for your responses.

Person who is helping me pay is currently in Europe, he went to Western Union office and was told he can't input *SEVISFEE* as company name. They said payment has to be made directly to a person not company or organisation.
I told Him I was only provided those details on the SEVIS print out.

Issue has not been fixed, I don't think he can access any Walgreens

Girlbestfriend:
Those of you going for Visa interview tomorrow, I beg you in the name of God, don't go with a pessimistic mindset__Go with the mindset of "My passport no go follow me come house tomorrow"

Remove every negative thoughts from your mind. PRAY, PRAY and PRAY. Our prayers are with you also. We want to be able to use your success story as a point of contact__for God that did so so and so's own will do my own ....

Don't forget to practice one last time before going to bed. Don't forget to go through your transcript one more time before going out there tomorrow.

I wish you all GOODLUCK�

God be with you all. Amen.
