My dear monkey no fit stop to eat banana,if u like take am anywhere. By their fruit we shall surely know them.

Read my transcript below:

VO: good morning
me: good morning
vo: so why do you want to go to the US
me: to further my studies.... going for a masters degree
vo: i see you are going to FIU, how did you find out about the school
me: i searched the internet for schools in the US that offer the course i intend studying that is MIS and got results. I filtered the results further to schools that actually offer MIS as a degree on its own and not as a specialization under their MBA program.
(VO nods)
vo: where did you have your bachelors
me: xoxo university
vo: what year did you graduate
me: 2013
vo: what have you been doing since you graduated
me: i have been working as an IT engineer with a media outfit.
vo: why do you want to study this course.
me: to prepare me for a managerial position at work. MIS is the MBA equivalent for tech students. It will help me become a professional in my field.
vo: did you apply to any other school
me: yes
vo: which schools
me: Northeastern uni, Uni of Illinois.
vo: who is sponsoring you
me: my dad
vo: what does he do
me: he owns a company and does contract jobs for the government
vo: how much does he make monthly
me: I really can't say because it is his income, and i have never asked him. You can have a look at his bank statement. (i tried reaching for it and pass to him)
vo: i don't have to see that, give me an estimate.
me: i can't say
vo: you can look at the statement if that will help you.
me: (i looked at d statement for a few seconds, then i answered)... close to 2million.
vo: are you married
me: no, but i am engaged
vo: ok, your visa has been approved.....he returned only my I-20 saying I will be needing it at the POE, then he passed the white paper to me.
(i was happy and couldn't hear most of what he said at this point)
vo: thank you and enjoy your stay in the united states
me: thank you and have a great day.

I went straight to collect my bag where i dropped it and went to get a cab.

Now, i remember those that were granted visa before me were also told to pick it up in 2weeks/3weeks time not the usual 2 to 3 business days.

Can I get someone to pick it up for me because I will be at work when it will be ready (leave will be over by then). Hope there has not been any issue recorded in the past with a proxy picking it up.


I THANK GOD FOR THIS AND ALSO THANK YOU ALL IN THE HOUSE FOR THE GUIDANCE ALL ALONG..... TO THOSE WAITING FOR THEIR INTERVIEW, I AM ALSO WAITING FOR YOUR TESTIMONY (TRANSCRIPT) HERE.

Next steps to take will be appreciated too from gurus in the house i.e. health, booking a flight, guidance on securing accommodation in Florida.

femysmart:

most people seeking roommates on Craigslist are either crack heads, ex-convict, nudist, pedophiles, gays. You don't want such roommate.

That site is a den of scammers although there are still real people there.

Also IP(s) from Nigeria have been blocked from accessing the site due to scam and fraudulent acts by some nigerians unless you use vpn or you have London used or London new BB then you can access it.

Walspring:


All these are badt combination ooo...
