yoyome20: Hi! Thank you for the update Yoyome, I am glad you were able to secure a closer date. Iβm just seeing this message but itβs okay because I was able to get two slots (I donβt fully understand how it happened) for January 2025. The second slot on the same date showed up 1hr+ after picking the first slot. Thanks once again for the update. |

segeh1981: I had this problem too. What I did was to create a ticket and kept calling them. Eventually, they merged the two accounts but I doubt you will be able to use the payment before. You may have to pay another visa fee. |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by SexyDuby(f): 12:09pm On Sep 25 |
Pls what is the new process to apply for a B1/B2 visa now. I've been reading and it's so confusing with other people's experience. How does the payment work? I see a lot of people saying to pay at First Bank Do I still fill the DS-160 form then go to the AVIS/OIS website? Can someone pls share the process to start the application, make payment and pick a physical interview date |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by OyoTunjiUSA(m): 12:20pm On Sep 25 |
heartlove: π€ 1. That looks like IW Qualification letter cum submission instructions. You have to print some important part and proceed to OIS for final registration in order to go and drop off your VISA application. PS: You just opened your account on AVITS to see if you can schedule what kind of VISA type ? Has your VISA fee been confirmed ? From there , you screenshotted a half-opened message and asking people to interpret? PS: Half-truth questions, makes people to mislead you unintentionally, because they will guess or generalize answers just like what i did up there (sense 1). PS: Always ask clearer questions. I ignore and label half baked questions as garbage from trolls. π 2 Likes |

Hello Everyone, I have an update. 1. Thank you to everyone who takes out time to respond to inquiries in this group. I have found it very useful and used your experiences as a guide. Thanks alot! 2. I have been able to book an appointment FINALLY!!! I raised a ticket with my complaint, and it was resolved within 3 days. I attached my First bank receipt and the invoice from AVITS. 3. By the time I logged in, my application was moved forward, I did not need to input my payment details any longer. 4. I choose Lagos and there was a date available for December 5th, which I chose. 5. If you have having issues with going beyond the payment verification point, please raise a ticket and hope that it is picked and reviewed. remember to attach the evidence as stated in #2. I wish you all the best! Thank you everyone! 4 Likes |

SexyDuby: π€ * Don't listen or Stop reading negative experiences. It will affect your VISA application, and your mindset. Some people want to create group, so they are exaggerating and creating fear. 1. Whenever you are ready. For B1/B2 *Go and fill DS-160 * Visit the new website ( AVITS). * Sign up * Choose country and location* Choose payment method (you have 3-days to pay after chosen) * Receive payment confirmation *Proceed with your appointment booking. You do not have anything to do with OIS. 2. If you are for renewal (IW), follow the above steps, but you will be asked some IW qualification questionnaire in the process. After successful scheduling of your appointment, you will have to wait for the IW Qualification Letter from the embassy. 3. Still on IW. After you have received your IW qualification Letter from the embassy, proceed to OIS to sign up and schedule another Drop off/Pick up appointment, and print out your appointment letter. 4. On the day of your appointment (based on OIS schedule), visit OIS office with * IW Qualification letter * MRV payment receipt* OIS appointment letter, and other requirements as explained in your IW Qualification Letter . PS: You may experience delay in payment confirmation, or delay in receiving IW Qualification Letter b/cos of the new update and large application that is being treated by the US embassy, you will still be able to do everything successfully with patience. People attend VISA interview and visit OIS every day. π 5 Likes 1 Share |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by CheeseMama: 1:53pm On Sep 25 |
Hi, please have you been able to resolve this? I have a similar issue. My appointment was rescheduled for October 2 on the old platform but I didn't receive a mail to migrate to the new portal. I raised a ticket but it seems that the person who reviewed it did not understand as I was asked to make a new payment. Can anyone else advise? harma: |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by birg84: 2:47pm On Sep 25 |
Good afternoon, I was at OIS office last Friday for my drop off and they refused to collect my documents saying I must follow the AVITS appointment which is not till next month, They advised I should not bother booking another OIS appointment for drop off but should just come on the day mentioned in my AVITS Letter. I am totally confused now that i see some were able to drop off with just the OIS appointment. Any thoughts on this |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by naivasha: 3:30pm On Sep 25 |
Really?? So there is no need to book an appointment with OIS? Sounds confusing. birg84: |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by OyoTunjiUSA(m): 3:33pm On Sep 25 |
birg84: π€ * Sorry. You went to OIS when AVITS system has been fixed. 1. Those 1st set or 1st batch of applicants , who submitted without AVITS authorization or AVITS blank letter did so b/cos AVITS was still experimenting due to system update. 2.. Now that your AVITS appointment letter can display a date ,then you have to follow the date. AVITS (being the direct USA embassy mouthpiece) is the webpage that is supposed to be handling and controlling MRV, appointments etc. OIS is just an errand-boy in charge of drop off & pick up. π |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by OyoTunjiUSA(m): 3:48pm On Sep 25 |
CheeseMama: π€ 1. Your appointment was meant to be rescheduled on the old platform but you missed it without notification to the embassy. Had it been that you were able to reschedule, you will now be having an old appointment which is qualified to be migrated into the new website (AVITS). But you missed the old appointment reschedule instruction , which means ABSENT or YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED. 2. It seems that person who reviewed your ticket was right. π |

Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by Kakajewel: 5:17pm On Sep 25 |
Please I need advice on what documents my parents need to take to the embassy for B1/B2 visa next year. I was unable to find the same interview date for them. I intend for them to come for my graduation either in December 2025/May 2026 (it has not been concluded yet, and I cannot obtain an invitation letter from the school yet). |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by voiceofpaul(m): 5:20pm On Sep 25 |
OyoTunjiUSA: Good afternoon Boss, Does this means after the card payment, I can proceed immediately to booking an appointment date on the AVITS website without the drop off and pick up with OIS? Thank you.

Good evening everyone, Please I need help with booking my appointment, I chose Abuja when I filled my DS160 form & also on the AVITS site but I can see that there are available dates for Lagos. Can I go ahead and choose an appointment in Lagos instead? For more context, see screenshot below.

Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by hawfarnah: 11:46pm On Sep 25 |
I am so happy! My parent's initial date before the new website was introduced was October 2025, luckily for us, they got the September 23 2024 date after we rescheduled. Their visa was approved on September 23rd. Please how long does it take for their visa status to change to βissuedβ? It still says approved. Thanks 3 Likes |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by OyoTunjiUSA(m): 1:14am On Sep 26 |
heartlove: Hey π€ 1. If your payment has been confirmed, click on the pending appointment request to continue, and if after clicking the system is taking you back to choose payment option, instead of calendar dates , then you still have to exercise patience until the system updates itself. 2. You have created 3 tickets already, so click the ticket (3) icon and read the reply message if there is any, but in all , clicking on the Pending appointment will determine if you will continue or not yet. PS: IW means Interview Waiver , for those who are doing renewal. They don't 85% of the time attend physical interviews, all they need do is to send their passport and documents to the embassy. The first message you displayed was IW instructional messages. π |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by OyoTunjiUSA(m): 1:24am On Sep 26 |
heartlove: * This is VISA renewal application (IW). DHL is not part of the free delivery. DHL is paid services. Here are the only FREE delivery locations : OIS SERVICES ABUJA No. 28 Pope John Paul Street Off Gana Street Maitama Abuja Business Hours: 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. (Monday to Friday) OR OIS SERVICES LAGOS No. 14 Idowu Taylor Victoria Island, Lagos Business Hours: 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. (Monday to Friday) * If you chose DHL you will pay. π |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by OyoTunjiUSA(m): 1:30am On Sep 26 |
adenikeO: π€ 1. Yes if the system allows and accept your booking. But you must go and fill another Lagos- oriented DS -160 to match up. Then take both new and old DS-160s along on the day of your appointment. π |
Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by OyoTunjiUSA(m): 1:50am On Sep 26 |
Walexx6691: π€ * You will be charged in USD if you use card to pay. Paying with card (if successful) is the fastest, and allows you to continue with your appointment booking , almost immediately after payment confirmation. However, first bank payment option is kind of most efficient, though might take 24 hrs to approve your payment. 2. You will open AVITS profile for one of them , and book appointment for them separately on the same profile, as there is no more group bookings. The remaining is a game of luck and calculation in using the 3 - Reschedule lifeline to match their dates. 3. You will chose payment option on AVITS first. If you chose bank payment, you will have to print out the payment guide (to be tender physically in the bank) , and proceed with the payment . You have to visit AVITS and chose payment option before proceeding with the payment. π 2 Likes |

hawfarnah: π€ 1. Track their VISAS here : https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx?App=NIV 2. Then, Sign-in to their AVITS account, and click on the Courier Shipping Number link " " under Status. The page will open to the delivery status. If no Courier Shipping Number appears on your status, that means your passport has not been processed by the courier and may still be processed. * It's usually 5 - days. π 1 Like 1 Share |
